New bow for big bull tag!!!
« on: June 21, 2013, 06:41:54 PM »
Ok boys lets hear your thoughts!  I've been in the market for a new bow for awhile now.  Drawing a tocannon bull tag kinda pushed me to getting serious about it! ;).   So I have a 28" draw I want to pull 70# and I want speed smoothness and quiet at the shot.  What bow would you guys buy?

Bowtech Experience or Hoyt Spyder Turbo.  BTW, I just swapped my Spyder Turbo for an Experience.  I'd still recommend the Spyder Turbo if you're not concerned about the 6" brace.   :twocents:

They are all pretty good these days, shoot them all, one will stick out and feel best to you. If you're in the Kitsap area, let me know and you can shoot my new Martin Alien, 28 1/2" draw, 70#..it will surprise you... :tup:

Ya I'm planning on going to some bow shops and shooting all of the top bows.  Do you guys have any negative feed back about any bows on the market right now?

What is your price point?  I prefer Hoyt but the Bear bows get you a lot of bang for your buck.  Elite is putting out some good bows too.

Love my Mathews Creed. Smoothest draw I've found out there!

   You should honestly shoot as many of the top bows as you can and buy the one that feels best, there are a LOT of great bows these days and in my opinion its mostly about what fits YOU the best.......and practice :tup:

you only need 70 more grains to be legal 70 lbs you need 420 grains my cpxl witch is slower than the cpx flings the 420s at 70at 311 with a 30inch draw. the cpx is about 15fps faster . I'm sure your creed shoots well it's just not a bow tech  :chuckle: just having fun don't get bunched ! heres  the first test grou I shoot at 40 yards and I was having vane contact !
