The last few bows I bought I got them with 70 Lb limbs and they always bottom out at around 67Lbs. This year I think I am going back to a Hoyt but I was wondering if you can get 75 Lb limbs or are they only 70 or 80 Lbs? The Vipertec looks really sweet but maybe a little slow.

Actually, the Vipertec I just bought peaks at around 76 lbs and it is only a 70 lb peak draw weight bow. Most of the Hoyts I have owned end up peaking a few lbs over their listed peak draw weight.

I didn' t chrono the ViperTec I shot, but I also noticed it was not quite so quick as say a Razor or Ultra. It' s the limb angles..Hoyt has used a fairly traditional/aggressive limb angle for the past couple of years, the ViperTec and X-Tec don' t have that.

As far as poundage, all of my recent models have peaked in the 71 to 74 pound range.

The two Vipertecs at the pro shop bottom out at 68 and 69 lbs. I had them contact Hoyt to try and send me one that bottoms out around 72 or 73 but they said they will not do that and that I would have to buy a 80lb bow. Thats a little disappointing considering the bow cost $629 you think they could try and find me what I want. Oh well, maybe I' ll look at some other companies before I buy this year!

My Cybertec cranked to 73# off the shelf. I think it' s the luck of the draw though. You may have to go through two dozen bows to find one that' ll crank down like that.
