Default My monstrous quest for a new bow

I have an older browning bow. It is getting old and i think...Hey brian, your a good guy, you deserve to get a new bow. So thats when the quest began. I tried many types of bows on my quest. You have a wide variety of bows that i shot. But i thought, hey brian, you need a quality, kick some hide, top of the line bow. So it came down to two top notch bows. It was down to the Hoyt X-tec and the Matthews Outback. I shot both of these hogs and they were great. what i have now...err..it made it look like garbage. So i say, hey brian, buddy, you cant go wrong either way. there both top notch. Anyways, i have decided on this beastly hoyt x-tec. Can anyone give me some recommendations on sights, arrow rest, and stabilivers...or some or nifty gadgets. I am think trophy ride matrix sights, and the muzzy zero effect for the arrow rest.

I'd say "hey brain" why didn't you check out the BowTech line, if you were a real brain you would have. haha Just kidding the Hoyt xtec is a great bow, and I checked it out as well when I was on my quest for a new bow. I unlike you ended up buying the BowTech Patriot Dually and I just love it. But We're not the same so congrat's on the new Hoyt xtec and I hope you really enjoy it's company.

P.S. I bought the
Spott Hogg Real Deal sight
The Stealth 8 inch stabilizer
Muzzy Zero Effect rest

You must have had a great Income Tax Return! I'm sold on thr WB rest fer hunting. I just bought the new Tru Glo 1 pin sight and am really pleased with it and impressed by its brightness

good luck

Brian,
I was in your shoes several weeks ago. I shot Mathew's, Bowtec, Kodiac, and Hoyt. I ended up with Xtec and couldn't be more pleased.

I outfitted it with a DuraLite two-piece quiver, an AccuLite site, and a Simms modular stabilizer.

I have a trophy taker drop-away rest.

For arrows, I went with Blackhawk Vapor.

I can't waite for hunting season.
