Who is buying a new bow in 2009 and if so what are you getting?

[dreamingbig]

I am thinking about it but only if the price is right as I really like my Trykon XL.

I am considering the Katera XL (need to shoot it again).  Anything else I should take a look at?

I generally like longer ATA (36" plus) and higher brace heights (7.25" or more) as I generally shoot better with a more forgiving bow.

I have the trykon xl as well, I love it but in the last 3 years hoyt has made the bows, better, lighter, more forgiving and faster...... the katera xl is sweet but the alphmax 35 is sweeter and thats what I just ordered..... go shoot one and you will see.......

im switching my cougar III se to the back up spot and either picking up a katera or a newer martin not 100% on wich one yet i have more shooting to do

[fc2038]

I am I am. I just do not know what i am going to get. I switched to the rifle for a couple years and I am done. Coming back to STICK ANS STRINGS!!!!  I need to start to look. I have a Hoyt right now but I am looking at a mathews or PSE. i will have to wait and see.

[Machias]

I am and I don't know what I'll be getting just yet.

[bucklucky]

I know I have too, but not sure what I'm gona get either. I can tell you it will be a Mathews or hopefully a Bowtech.

Thanks.  I will make sure to shoot the alphamax before making a final decision.  I would probably give the nod to the Katera right now because it is seasoned and has been out for awhile with no significant issues.  I tend to shy away from the latest and greatest until it has proven itself even though I am sure there will be nothing wrong with it.

I doubt if I actually will buy an new one, my '04 Bowtech Patriot is still in perfect condition and I love it....BUT if I do buy a
new bow, it will be the new Bowtech Admiral.  I checked one out at Sportsman's  and the thing is incredible!

After 10 years loving the same bow...ive bought a new one...after lots of research i narrowed it down and then i shot Tmike's Bow Tech Guardian and had to have one...so...as of one day ago...I DO.

But Ill have to wait for august to shoot it!

We'll get you hooked up Charlie! 

As for a new bow - I will be getting a couple, but not paying for them... 

BowTech Sentinel and Admiral for now, I can't part ways with my Guardian though so I'll keep it around...
