HUNTING FREAK 1

I AM GOING TO BUY A NEW BOW THIS YEAR. I AM LOOKING AT THE REFLEX BUCKSKIN I HAVE GOT SOME GOOD INFO ON THIS BOW BUT AM LOOKING FOR MORE GOOD OR BAD.

Hunting Freak 1 - I ordered one last week and expect to have it in my hands sometime this week. I like it because of the cam and a half system, it's light weight, and relatively short length. I'll give you additional thoughts after I have a chance to shoot it more this week.

My buddy has this bow and loves it. I have looked at it too. They are very good bows and not very expensive either.

Hunting Freak 1 - Mine came in today. So far, I've only had a short period of time to shoot it. I really like it, although it's a bit noisier than I expected (although that could be due to me, not the bow). I have a QAD Ultra Rest (containment and drop away) and an Extreme Sniper XLT sight on it; is a very nice combination.

Reflex makes a good bow. I had one. If money is an issue, you can not go wrong with the Reflex. I would suggest perhaps the Buckskin or the Superslam. I think you will be much happier with the machined riser on these models. Good luck.

I just ordered the super slam. They are pretty sweet bows.

Reflex is made by Hoyt. In fact they use the same cams, axles and bearings in alot of cases. The biggest difference I can see is the limbs. I find it interesting that all the stores I have seen that carry reflex don't stock Hoyt and also vice versa. Same company. I just think dealers just don't want to explain why the hoyts are 2 and 3 times more money. Not saying that a modern Hoyt is not a better bow than a current Reflex, they are. Just not sure about the massive difference in price. After researching a bit I bought the Reflex Grizzly.
