I just picked up a V3 31 from Lucky Shot in the same color.  It's a dang sexy machine!

I never did try the 31 and am somewhat curious. But at this point I don't want to just in case I like it more.

I'm a 30" draw, but actually went down to the 29" mod, and I was a little more comfortable. I recently dislocated my shoulder trying to boogie board in HI for my 50th, so I'm battling that.  I decided I wanted to go down in Draw Weight, so I ended up with the v3 because of the switch mod technology.  I thought the Hoyt draw cycle was more comfortable, but I could go with the 60# mods down to 55# with the V3 and go up as I feel better/get stronger to hopefully 60# by season and still have the option to go heavier next year if I can handle it.

I shot the EVL 22 and it damn near reinjured my shoulder, that thing was harsh.  I'll bet it is fast though.

I know some of you guys buy a new bow every year. Not sure how you do that but you're making it really hard for those of us that still shoot the same bow we had 10 years ago! I have a hankerin'...

LOVE MY NEW V3 27.5!!!! Bought it down at Archery World in Lacey, also switched from a 7 pin to a 3 pin slider sight!! EXTREMELY HAPPY!!! Ambush green as well!!

The guys down at Archery World were easy to deal with and as always Ryan Black was a huge help!!
Never give up.... you never know what’s around the next corner or over the next ridge......enjoy it while you can!

Love the results with the V3 27

82 yards just to try. First shot at 80 yards ever with this and my pin was just a guess. Wasn't even going to but my buddy tried first and missed bad, so I had to give him a hard time about it. Of course he was then saying let's see you do it. (Yes we had great vis, nobody else was around, had the whole course to ourselves)



41 yards on the bison, 2 shots

Thanks  :tup:

Forgot about this thread. Not all my groups are this good of course, but this was my last group of the morning about a week ago. Hadn't used it in about 3 weeks and went to the indoor range.

50 yards

I decided to buy a Matthews Halon 32 yesterday. I've had my Hoyt Turbo Hawk for 11 years. This is certainly a quantum leap up the tech ladder from the Hoyt.
