I'm eyeballing my next bow purchase..
I finally pulled enough strings and did enough talking to get Elite into our shop and to be honest, I'm pumped. I got to shoot last years Synergy, and the new Synergy XT. Yes they draw a little stiff but like I tell everyone, the draw curce does nothing for me but decide my draw weight. It fit me pretty good, seemed to be the perfect overall weight, and help rock solid. Just like any other speed bow though, you better not creep. I'm eyeballing an Elite GTO, AT edition (Black riser), LH, 60# and 28.75" draw. I'm just hoping the GTO shoots as good as it is in my head [8D]

Sounds pretty cool Matt. I've heard/read a lot of good things about Elite.
Hey, what ever happened with the Cardiac? Did Ross ever come through for you?

Sent various emails. I'm not expecting on getting a bow from them anymore. I don't even think about it now.

That's a pretty nice bow...VERY sharp looking bow. I've shot the Synergy, it's not bad. Little harsh, especially right at the breakover point, but overall not bad.
DEAD quiet, but it does want to recoil back toward you a little after the shot. But we didn't have a stabilizer on it when I shot it, so that may help.
Don't creep at all, you won't be able to hold onto it...
I've got my new bow coming as well. I went w/ Hoyt again, but for other reasons. I actually was set on the Elite, but there were some other circumstances that prevented it, in my particular case. Money mostly.

Although, I'm not surprised, I had a feeling this was going to happen when they startedtelling youthey didn't have any left handed cardiacs available.

Well, they didn't have them for the longest time. Now, there is no reason I shouldn't have it by now. Who cares, I didn't lose anyhting except for valuable time. I didn't have a bow from February to June because I had been promised that one. Nothing but time lost, nothing too bad.
Mobow what Hoyt did you go with? We should be getting our shipment soon

Vectrix Plus.
Vectrix Plus.
They are a little lighter though.
Hopefully some better strings and cables too
