2017 Hoyt Launch Day! (today)

[Wetwoodshunter]

I'm halfway excited to see some new bows that are coming out. I have been on the fence of getting a new bow and upgrading from my Mathews Drenalin I have been shooting for years.

Anyone else out there curious to what Hoyt is going to offer this year that is breaking the mold of compound bows?

I think at 2:00 pm the new line on the website goes live.

Target bows will be posting shortly.

I'll take a carbon defiant 34 - 28.5 draw - 70-80# limbs - black riser realtree limbs please

I just had a chance to look at the bows new bows. So Hoyt has done it, they took a platform that I was looking at added .2 lbs to it, renamed it "Pro" and gained nothing as far as I can see in performance?

Am I missing something I'm not seeing.

I'll keep my older Hoyts. Lighter, faster, better cam, better grip location, and I don't need $200 adapters to use my press on them. And they can be found for under $400.

Which model older Hoyt are you referring to?

2012 vector. 2013 aluminum spyders. The RKT cam is faster, even with those bows' longer ATA, and still smooth. Those bows also still have the grip location slightly higher, which I think balances better. They also had the option for a turbo model without the use of those aggressive turbo cams, which was nice. I just don't see the point in dropping $1000 on these new models when some of thier older models have better performance for cheaper, and you can use a standard press with them.

I`m in that boat, if I were to buy a new bow I`d have to buy a new press.

Thanks for the great info Jellymom.

The RKT carbons are still going high dollar
