Turkeygirl Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Ok, I'm still shocked over this,lol So I haven't shot my bow since bow season ended which was a month ago. This is the last few days of late archery in southern NY so I thought maybe I'd go out or at least attempt to shoot a squirrel with my bow. My shotgun buck tag can be sued for a buck or doe in late archery. So I pull my Hoyt Rintec XL out of the closet, go to the target and put a piece of paper towel on it because I'm lazy,lol. First shot at 10 yards - right where I was aiming dead middle. I step back to 20 - shot hits right where first shot hit! I step back to 30 - shot hits maybe 1 inch higher than where others hit but still that is right on! I was blown away, this bow is awesome!!!! I was not expecting to be shooting that well,lol I put some field tips on my last 2 arrows and shot those at 10 yards - perfect. I'm not going to attempt shooting any squirrels past 10 yards in my stand because well I've had them that close if not closer. Wow this bow is unbelievable and when I put that Limbsave mini S coil stabilizer on, it'll be even better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrow32 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Re: OMG! Wow..... Another happy hoyt owner cant beat em. Got to count tho if you can get a good form down and do it all the time you will shoot decent or good even if you have to take some time off or just feel like it.

ruttinbuc Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Re: OMG! Wow..... Wow, TG! I was about to say the same thing as Buckee! It may be a great bow, but I believe its the NUT behind the string that makes the difference! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Re: OMG! Wow..... Ruth, That's great. Sure is nice to know when you spend hard earned money on a quality bow, you're not disappointed! That Rintec is a great bow. I think you'll like the S-Coil, too. Good luck with those squirrels.

Straight Shooter Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Re: OMG! Wow..... That's great Ruth, it sounds like the bow is holding it's tune and the shooter as well. That's what we want in our equipment and our muscle's. Good Luck to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
