Guest HoytHunter2020 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yesterday i went into my local bow shop to shoot my Hoyt Vipertech. I shot and my peep came off my string. I then proceeded to have the guy put it back on. I go to shoot and my draw legnth changed and it was 2 inches to long. I go up to them and they say that it never chaged its always been this long and it cant go any shorter.. So we both agreed for me to get into a new Bow. I agreed to shoot a brand new Matthews LX. I got to keep my whisker bisquit, truglow sights, and a super shock blocker stabilizer. Oh, and I didnt have to pay anthing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTbowman Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? SWEET! YES you got a deal of a lifetime it appears. not only got out of a Hoyt but got a Mathews for free to boot. LOL Just please give us a honest report once you had some time with it. I am curious to see which you liked better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? I don't know what the value is on each but if the LX fits you better then you got what you needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? Depends on who you ask. If you ask a Mathews shooter, they'll say you got a sweet deal. If you ask a Hoyt shooter, they'll say you got robbed. If you ask me, a Fred Bear shooter, I'd say "Heck if I know." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdvantageTimberLou Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? If you feel you got an equal trade then you did alright. You traded in a used bow and got a new one, what was the price on the bare Mathews? You could always surf the net and see what used Hoyts go for. You joined the dark side.......

VtBowhunter Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? I didn't think the LX was being made anymore.......so was it a used bow, but new to you, or was it left over from previous years but still new? I guess it would depend on the year of the bow. I know that they had Limb pocket issues on the LX when it first came out a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? As long as you're happy with the different bow, it's a good deal. Now you gotta change your user name Welcome to the dark side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Re: Did I get a Deal??? i agree with Finn..as long as you're happy its a different bow....i am pretty sure the vipertec comes in a 26.5 inch draw...i am wondering why they told you they couldn't go that short?
