Guest 9point Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Sold my vtec last night. (475.00 stripped) Only had afew 100 shots out of her. She shot great. I tagged an ohio big buck with her this year. I am going to pick up Hoyts new trycon this week. Anybody shooting one or know of anything wrong with the new hoyt.

Nick Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Hope I didnt mess up (new Hoyt) I shot the Hoyt Trycon and Mathews Switchback XT. Both bows shot pretty much the same when it came to quickness, silence, and vibration. But what I didnt like about it was the draw....you get it about 3/4 the way back and theres like a big hump before you come to full draw. I also didnt care for the handle. So I bought the Mathews. I would try thew BowTechs too if your pro shop carries them. I wouldnt go there with your mind set on just Hoyt.....you might be surprised with some of the other manufacturers!!

Nosdog2 Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Hope I didnt mess up (new Hoyt) The "hump" was a big concern for my father also. Other than that he liked it, however he ended up getting on the mathews bus. Def shoot the bow before making the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullfan Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Hope I didnt mess up (new Hoyt) I also shot both bows. I did not like the hoyt due to the "hunp" also and it just felt like I was holding a 2x6 in my hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rutnroy Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Hope I didnt mess up (new Hoyt) i don't believe you made a mistake . the trykon is an excellent bow. it has quality though out the bow. i plan on getting the xl as i'm not a fan of real short bows, plus i have a longer draw length. good luck with what you choose.
