In trouble now...

dcso3009dcso3009 Member Posts: 2,350 ✭✭✭✭✭
Out of curiosity I shot some new bows today. Wow have things changed! The one I liked the best was the Trykon. The bowtech seemed harsh (like the bow I shoot now), the Swithback XT was nice, but sometimes I like to be different. Now if I could just come up with the $$$. I should list my 45 and see what I can get for it.

    Yep, I think I smell something funny, that is exactly what slash said.
    To be "different" you may want to try something like Alpine or something that is not in the top 3. Even buying something out of the top 5 would not make you "different".

    I'm different from the guys I shoot with. Not another Hoyt in the bunch. Man I hunt with 'tards! [:D] I would be VERY willing to take that blindfold challenge! I would have no doubt that I could tell my Hoyt from others.[;)]

    [}:)][}:)]Slash Dirty rat is right. You are making this way too easy for me....[;)] Of coarse you can tell the hoyt from the rest. I should have mentioned Ear-plugs are mandirory for this test....
    It would be so easy too tell because the hoyt sounds like a freekin nuclear bomb going off DUHHH. I can tell[B)] I can so[:0]

    At first I thought you meant "ear plugs" but then I realized you didn't want his head to deflate. You have got to have exessive air in your head to shoot a Hoyt.[:D]

    Wouldn't even need to shoot it to tell the difference. The way my Hoyt is made, I KNOW I would be able to tell it apart from the others. You know, when you feel the best in your hand and are used to shooting the BEST, you know when you have a turd in hand.[:D]

    I was going to comment on you having something in your hand, but that might make this thread to go bye, bye.[:D]


    Hey Slash on a more normal level or as normal as I can be anyway, did you get any snow/rain down your way? I was thinkin of going south this weekend but not sure if I want to if its muddy.

    Ok by different, I meant other than what everyone else on my league shoots. 2 of us shoot Hoyt, one Bowtech, one AR and the rest are Mathews.

    My unbiased opinion of the XT was that it is a very nice shooting bow. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it falls foreword when just held in the hand, and after release. The Hoyt just sat there. As far as draw, speed, vibration, noise, and shock I thought they were very comparable. Just liked the feel of the Hoyt better. I am one who will not say a Mathews is not a good bow. My opinion of the Bowtech was MUCH lower! Harsh to draw, noisy, and felt some recoil.

    I was curious not courteous. Just wanted to see first hand what is out there.

    I would like to shoot different bows blindfolded. Like you said I probably couldn't tell you the brand, but would be better able to say which bow I liked better.

    Hey Bang, the weather down this far is just cold. We got a little rain and very little snow. Just a dusting. The bad part is we are still soggy from the 8 to 10 inches of rain we got last weekend. Most of the fields and woods are still wet from all of that.

    This is weather-ologist, slash0311, now back to our regular programming![:D]
