I chose the truth, could get the bow outfit it really well and the marquis wasn't on the list, need to shoot them as you will see a variety of draw cycles and valleys in your list

What? no Marquis??

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
I'd wait for the new 2009 line-up at this point.

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
Marquis qould have been my first choice since that's the one i own, next would be Elite GT5000 or 82nd airborne.

I would be having a really nice custom made longbow made just for me, sort of one of a kind!!!!!!! But thats just me![8D]

Huh?? [&:]

I know this is my opinion, but Hoyt makes the best bows.:) I don't see their limbs snapping in half. ;)

Seriously, a bow is a lot like theFord vs Chevy argument.

Not sure about the adrenalin, but it would be top of the line Mathews. I love my AR, but would go that way.

x2 altho , that truth 2 looks pretty good

Doegirl75 08-11-2008 09:59 PM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
Well, I would opt for the 82nd, butit's not offered in my draw length and weight I need. So, it's Hoyt Katera for me.

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
I'd take a serious look at the Mathews DXT. However, since it's not on the poll, I voted for the Drenaline. Good luck with whatever rig you decide on.

Not enough cash the mathews they were trying to sell me was $859 and it was bare.[:@]

A used Shafer Silvertip recurve or a Black Widow longbow

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
i picked the drenalin since u didnt have the dxt on there.. but i would also wait for the 09 bows.. bowtech told me they have a new one that is a perfect blend of all there bows, something that will be huge.. guess well wait and see.. who knows what mathews is doing, they will be the last ones to say...

I'd buy a one yr old used bow.....and outfit it with quality accessories for that price.

nchawkeye 08-12-2008 07:52 AM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
None of the above...No finger bows...

WVSPORTSMAN 08-12-2008 08:17 AM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
I would wait also...but if I had to pick now it would be the elite Gt 500. I already have the Gto and love it.

I'd likely do the same thing if your looking for $800 to cover all the accessories too.

Two bows that I think are at the top of the list for hunting specific bows........07+ Allegiance, and 07+ Guardian. I really think these are Bowtech's best pair of hunting specific bows.

Check out a Forge Smoke if you are close to Wisconsin.

mohunter82 08-12-2008 08:42 AM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
I'm gonna go against the grain and pick one that isn't up there.

Limbsaver DeadZone........Yea I know its ugly but last time I check the deer didn't care if I shot them with an Ugly bow

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
I went with the 82nd airborne because ablack widow takedown recurve wasnt on the list and Im happy with my current bowtech

cterbow 08-12-2008 08:49 AM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
 
i voted for the x-force because i really like the dream season bow they have out right now. would like to own it.

SevenMag 08-12-2008 09:09 AM

RE: You have $800 to use for any bow
