Carbon Bows
DidntGo100:
The best thing about them is they allow you to put the weight where you want it. They are warm in the winter time, but I don’t think that’s worth the price but me being an idiot that I am. I just bought an RX nine now got an RX eight RX seven RX five all sitting in the spare room.

I have a carbon hoyt. Love it. Not worth the current prices. Less durable to impact damage, and there was a time when hoyts carbon bows were actually light weight. Isnt that the whole point of a carbon bow? I find it funny that a lot of carbon bows now are heavier than a lot of aluminum models (Hoyt :chuckle:)
My 2015 carbon spyder is 3.75lbs with a 34” ata. Hoyts new $2000 carbon is 4.3lbs at 33.5” ata. Hmmm.
PSE is actually keeping their carbon bows light. But i have no experience with them.
The only gain I see from the new ones is they arent freezing to the touch when its cold out. If thats worth an extra $500-$700 for ya, then go for it.
It all comes down to personal preferance though.

Forgot I started this thread.....FF 3 years and I am just now pulling the trigger on a PSE Mach 33, (Thanks Todd) Figured out I have had my current bow for 19 years :yike:
and like I stated then, boy have things changed.......The sight I like (Option archery) is 1/3 the cost of the bare bow......still trying to talk myself into it. :chuckle: :chuckle: going with a hamskea rest, looks pretty nice.
