No, I don't own one, but I've shot them. Super bows. Smooth, quite fast and dead quiet. But I don't need to tell you that, you've already shot it. 
Great bow, and like all Hoyt's it's built with durability in mind. Solid choice.

A good friend of mine shoots one; I love it. As Mobow mentioned, its very smooth, reasonably fast, and extremely quiet. If I were to seriously consider a Hoyt, I would definitely pick up the Vulcan. I nearly bought one myself last year after shooting his.
Only thing I dislike, and its the only reason I don't own a Hoyt, is the weight. They're heavy -- to me. I'm a skinny guy though, so...

Actually, full set up it was almost a two pound difference between my Allegiance and his Vulcan.

For that, I'll never own a Hoyt.

The Vulcan is a great bow. I just set up and sold one tonight. Pay no mind to the low brace height, you won't see an accuracy increase/decrease between the Vulcan and the Vectrix. Atleast I didn't. If I were to buy a Hoyt this year (which I'm not) I would get the Katera. Which is the same bow as the Vulcan, just with the z3 cam and a better set of strings and cables. IMO the Vulcan should have been the flagship bow last year, around here, the Vulcan was preferred more over the Vectrix. Alot of people over on AT, like them alot as well. Great bow.
