Horton also makes a Reverse Draw bow. The Vision and the Recon.

Excellent fit and finish and I feel that it has a better balance than the Scorpyd.

Scoryd is embroiled in several lawsuits that it can't afford to maintain IMHO.

reverse draw...good or bad??
 

thanks for the comeback...have you shot it?..how does it compare to a standard xbow...faster?? slower??...what about price??..whats your gut feel???

rzredge,

Yes, I have shot both the Scorpyd and the Vision. I ended up with the vision because it felt more compact and balanced excellent due to the weight balance.

The Scorpyd is faster than the Vision and does it with less peak weight. This is due to the longer powerstroke and cams instead of a wheel. This makes the bow a bit longer and has a folding stock to make it easier to **** the bow.

Horton has been around a long time and has lots of dealers and is a proven company. I don't know how long RTD will warranty their products if the company went belly up.

For me Horton Vision is the better of the two.
