Default 50/50 on the GTO

Well being some issues with Elite on stings and 50.00 dollar LH charge I may cancel the order. I really want the bow, but I have a weird feeling. Not about the bow, it's about how Elite is run as a company. I know the GTO is a great and I still may get it. This whole string/DL issue is crazy, and it's so easy to solve if Elite or Nealy would come out and say x happen and we fixed it.

Elite states the issue is sloved.

Right now there are2 cable and string lengths out there for GTO

On the sticker on the bow
String 55 3/16
Cable 37 7/16

The ELITE Archery Spec sheet says different - here is a link to that sheet.
String 55 3/16
Cable 37 9/16

http://elitearchery.com/specs/GTOspecs.pdf

Some might not know Elites where having terrible DL issues. It appears to be the strings and cables, but Nealy is not talking and neither is Elite. I just want someone to say

X is the issue and we fixed it, this is frustrating[:@]

If things do not change a Hoyt Katera XL will be ordered

Maybe I missed it but if you want binary feel and speed, why not jump over to the 101st or 82nd? Is it because it starts with a B...b....b...b...bowtech?

Because they're still not Hoyts

In all honesty, I haven't shot any of the new BTs yet [:-]

I have nothing against the hoyts, except for no DL mods and bad feel on the only one I shot but just trying to poke a little fun.

No if you ask a certain member here who tried a LH 101st, if it did not workout i was going to buy it.

I love hoyts limbs and this would be my third hoyt. I like the way the GTO drew and the speed, still do. The only issue I have is the pull on the bowtechs. MO I have owned 2, and I know I like to rib the guys, but I would have no issue in owning one, just not for me.
