just ordered a used 2011 hoyt crx 32

[earlmarne]

man i am so freakin excited for it to get here.its a bare bow so i will need to outfit it n i also have to get a dif module for my draw length.i figure another 200 bucks n i should be able to get out into the woods besides arrows i guess.no elk will ever scoff at me again,nor black bear nor deer,nor grouse or turkey or quail o squirrel

Congrats! Good choice. 200 mite be little low to load up bare bow.  Depends on what you want on it!

[earlmarne]

agreed.i shot the rampage at sva n from what i understand this is the same thing with a machined aluminum riser insteada the magnesium cast.i think im going to try and go used on my sights n stab  n release n rest n see where i get.i really like some of the drop aways but am going to have to go lower end n i like those spott hog sights but once again am going to have to settle on something that i can get into the woods with this season n maybe upgrade in the spring.hopefully this bow will last me a few years n i can get some real nice stuff on it eventually

I got a new Trophy Taker drop away rest off ebay last year for $50 (new). Also got a Copper John 3 pin sight for $15, also brand new. There are some great deals to be found on ebay if you're not too picky on what you get.

[earlmarne]

thank you thats kinda what i was thinkin

[earlmarne]

i been readin about these winners choice strings n i hope that the strings on this thing will be good to go for this season but i think i will be orderin some up for next

[Mudman]

An idea to ponder is craigslist.  Seen old cheap bows with good rest n sights pretty cheap.  Also montana Black Gold sight a good one for money.  I use and love em.

i have a crx 32 also, love it to death!

[earlmarne]

ya craigslist is awesome for the used bows.thats a great idea.i was scared to purchase my first bow of all time but i could easily get a bow setup n just put the bow aside.theres bows on there everyday under 100 bucks it seems

[earlmarne]

howd the factory strings hold up for u ?im really pumped to get this thing runnin.i gota get the E mod for it to get it to my draw length.im so glad i didnt settle on a bear or some other cheaper bow

[bloodhound]

you will love i promise! its super silent. feels real good in that hand. balance is awesome! i didnt wait to see how the string would hold up i just swapped it out for radical archery one.

[earlmarne]

o see how u r.thats what got me thinkin i need a sweet string is the posts i read bout guys swappin em out right away.whats the added beni of the custom strings?is the one u got a good performer?

I shot the Maxxis 31 for 2 years and the strings on the hoyts are good that come stock. I believe they use the fuse strings. I had no creep with mine at 85 pounds so you should be good for the season. when you get it put about 100 arrows though it then take to the shop and have them check and see if the cams are still in time. Some times they do creep a bit. Then you should be good you can use that hundred buck that you where going to use for the string and get a good release. Scott makes a great one.

i paid about $65 for my 5 pin tool less Tru-Glo sight, brand new.  great sight!     another $50 for a new QAD drop away... i think you could easily do up a bow for under $200.

that said, i also have a $130 tightspot quiver, because, damn, that's a nice quiver!
