Hoyt shooters must road hunt alot!  All this talk about how they run over their bows with their trucks and brag about it.  I would keep that one to myself!  You hoyt guys can keep your hookers...just careful where you set her down at  :chuckle:

a bow is kinda like a hooker you can get a beautiful hoyt and know its a high class, clean with no issues piece of equipment that will do what you ask when you tell it to. or you can pay some lady named bear who's loud, wont lay still, and and you'll have to talk to customer service after flinging your arrow cause your bound to have something wrong with your riser afterwards.

If some lady tells me her name is "Bear" I ain't buyin' it.  That's a "Dude" plain and simple.  Only a drunk Hoyt guy could miss that obvious a clue.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

In all honesty I was a true blue Hoyt guru from '89 thru '06.  Have killed the vast majority of my animals with Hoyt bows.  At either the '06 or '07 ATA show all the guys at Hoyts booth seem to go from good industry friends to pompus, arrogant, dick weeds that couldn't give me the time of day or even shake my hand.  It was such a disappointing change in attitude that I came home and sold every single Hoyt I had.  The squaw still shoots a Hoyt, but I just took a new Bear out of the box for her.  Still uncertain if she will make the switch, but that Toutle bull tag has her thinking about stepping up in speed/energy.

The folks at Bowtech take real good care of us personally and support our business with extreme generosity.  Their new Invasion CPX really has to be shot to be fully appreciated.  If you haven't shot a Bowtech in a couple of years you really haven't shot a Bowtech.  The 2011 line is on a whole other plane of performance.

The amazing folks I deal with at Bear Archery/Trophy Ridge are new enough to archery they do not fully know who I am or what I have done.  And yet they go so far out of their way to make sure the squaw and I are happy it is boarderline embarrassing.  I stop in at the booth and the president comes out, puts a hand on my shoulder and says, "It sure is good seeing you again this year."  Meanwhile guys are going off to get us new shirts, hats, arrow rests and what ever goodies they think should fit our needs in the northwest hunting woods.  And I'm neither a current field tester nor pro staffer.  Just your run of the mill manufacturer with a longer resume and trophy list than average.  They truly give the royal treatment and their bows WAY out perform their value price.

I spent over a half years salary on my sheep/caribou trip to NWT a few weeks ago.  And I never once thought of taking anything other than the Bear Assault.  It's my best shooter and performed flawlessly.

The Mathews/McPherson company has always treated the squaw and I fairly and with respect.  Nothing against them at all.  I just do not enjoy shooting their bows :dunno:.

Man, what did you trade him for that?  A pink Cricket single shot .22?  You got ripped off.

If I had a Hoyt I'd purposely run it over with my truck and stuff it in a garbage can.  Then I'd go buy a Mathews.
I shoot a Hoyt AM32 and that's the funniest thing Ive seen on here in awhile.   :chuckle:
I'm a hoyt guy also. I think it's  funny how arrogant some of the Mathew's people are on here

Read the thread from the top - this is all in good fun.

I'm nothing more than an Old Fart who owns the largest peep sight manufacturing business as of now.  A lot of things in archery that I am a "Former something" besides being Duke Savora's protege'.  All half a lifetime ago and old news.  I'll leave it at that unless you need a resume'.

As far as the Squaw?  She looks like a squaw, walks like a squaw, works for free and is 50% Creek.  So she can't get mad for me calling her a squaw - can she?  She's also an elk, and bear killing machine bow or gun.

I was just wondering who you were, thats all. I wasn't sure if I should know or not. I am not a long time archer, nor am I familiar with the business. I'm not even sure why all the Hoyt guys get picked on. MY Hoyt shoots pretty ok and I haven't compared it to enough other bows to know if it's even heavy or not.
I need a new peep...got a link?
Now I have to go google and figure out who Duke Savora is.
