Nope that would be if I was hunting on that show............me and TBone could make one heck of a show shooting does and finest way to prepare and eat them.:yes:
Actually most people take it off because that added weight makes you tend to cant the bow to the side. The more you cant the bow the more left or right arrow flight you will get.
If I didn't have misses I wouldn't hunt. That's what the thrill of bowhunting. If I wanted to hit ever single thing I aimed at I would be gun hunting. Gun hunters don't think I'm bagging on you. Simply we hunted in TX for 5 years..............In 5 years I only had to shoot at 1 deer more than once. 99 percent of the time it was 1 and done.
You make a good choice..............If you can break them they will replace them.
If you strop the edge they will become sharp enough that you'll be afraid to pick them up
Get off here and go to bed...............You will be glad you did when the pain meds wear off. I had all 4 removed in one day............they were impacted and surgeon cut them all out. I was down for a week.
I think with the tolerances that Hoyt holds their bows to that the Turbohawk will be a great bow. The Tech riser has more support than alot of other cast risers out there. Either way..............if I buy one and it breaks warranty will get me a new bow.
Do you think Hoyt would put this bow out if they thought there would be a problem? I might be wrong put that book was put out in 1997 and I would best casting technology has advanced since then. For you guys shooting the Alpha don't get mad............It is a good bow. I'm not saying it's junk. I highly doubt though that Hoyt as stringent as they are about tolerances in their bows would put out a bow that they thought would not stand up to their reputation.
I had to send my other bow back to factory for warranty purposes. More than likely they aren't gonna be able to fix it is what the rep said and they are gonna give me a new bow. I'm gonna sell it if they do and buy a Turbohawk. A buddy of mine opened a bow shop with Hoyt and PSE and I want to help keep him in business and support the shop.
I'll still have my Mathews Target bow.................BTW You will appreciate your shoulders alot more when you get older if you have any left after drawing that monster that long
I got out to the shop and shot the 2010 Turbohawk's last night...................:robot:
We shot the Turbohawk side by side with the alphamax to compare the 2 because I think the Alphamax set the standard for hunting bows in 2009. First off the Alpha 32 and the Turbohawk are almost the same bow. The differences are that the Alphamax has a machined riser and the Turbohawk has a cast riser. The Alphamax also has the alphashock string stopper on it. 1/4 inch more brace height on the Turbo...............Alpha is like 2 feet per second faster
Same cams
Same Limbs
Same grip
The Turbohawk was actually quieter and had less vibration than the Alpha we shot. Both were at 70lbs.
Now for the Kicker.................the turbo hawk is $350 cheaper than the alphamax.............Yeah I said $350.
The turbohawk is $550 with a $50 mail in rebate...........I guaruntee you won't find another brand new $500 bow that shoots like this.
Go ahead and say it...........I know everybody thinks I'm a hardcore Mathews guys...............I just like a good shooting bow. Don't care the brand.............and Yeah I hate the Mathews wood grips...........and was never a fan of the Switchback XT. I think the last part of that comment alone kicks me out of the Mathews fan club.
The shop owner and I both were highly impressed by this bow............infact he is taking it hunting this year over his Alphamax...............
I know the old ones the blade angle made it to where they didn't feel that sharp but were devistating on game. If they are sharper they should be a great head
Haven't carried a rifle in years...............Not that I don't like to rifle hunt but most of the land here is bow only and I prefer to bow hunt over anything else.
Local shop said he wished he wouldn't have ordered the Turbohawk because he's not gonna be able to sell the alphamax bows he has on the shelf now. Same speed, same brace height, and he said the turbohawk shoots great.
