Hey HCH, who has the boring solocam with a fat grip?
Mathews

Hey Buellhunter, Who are you saying has the bow like warf would shoot?
Mathews; he was just agreeing, LOL.

I believe you guys are talking talking about two different bows, but you said "plus" at the start of your sentance, Buellhunter, making me think you are referring to one company.

I think HCH is speaking of Hoyt, and Buell is speaking of Bowtech. Am I wrong?

Thanks guys,

God bless

I don't watch TV, but my last trip to my brothers was as usual filled with the latest hunting shows he tvo's before I get there. I was amazed at the advertising Hoyt does. That in it's self was alarming to me. It is one of the reasons I don't care for Mathews and TC. I have issues with Hoyt's customer service already. They can't even provide an email link.

They have to pay off all those high priced hired guns that shoot for them somehow. It takes money and you have to pay for it.[&:]

You know Hoyt's have been around longer then many of the bow companies out there now. They have a huge proven track record that is pretty hard to argue against. If I remember correctly the prices between last years bow's offered by hoyt and this years is not much different so maybe that could just be your dealers doing. Now there is this other company called Reflex.... it is hoyts lower priced line of bows... kind of like Diamond is Bowtech's lower priced lineup. As far as the debate between mathews, hoyt, pse, darton, bowtech, browning, etc etc that will never end and if you shoot something that you like and shoot it well then good but dont bash someone for what they shoot. Not saying that is happening in this thread but it happens alot.

So if you dont like the prices of the new bows look at a cheaper line or buy a used one.

Oh I dont remember seeing very many commercials/ads for hoyt on hunting shows or in mags compared to the number of commercials/ads for mathews.

My 2004 Hoyt Xtec and my 2006 Trykon were the same price; $699; so was my Bowtech Tribute.This year the Vectrix is $729. Not much of a price increase in 3 years but the damn price of gas for their shipping and suppliers' parts have skyrocketed. The top of the line gunmakers' gunscost more than the top of the line Hoyts' do. Hoyt has been making bows for 76 years; they have forgot more about making bows than the rest of the bowmakers know.
