Canuck2 Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Just ask the mathews boys who won the 2009 Vegas Championship.... ...and 2008, and 2007, and... I can offer up a batch of whitetails, mule deer, and last fall's antelope if the animal thingy is really necessary. But if they want a simple beauty contest, that's just plain foolhardy.

PotashRLS Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I'm in. Plus I'll be using my Hoyt for Black Bear this Fall. Hopefully things pan out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Just ask the mathews boys who won the 2009 Vegas Championship.... You can't take just Vegas as a base. It's biased............If I could get enough speed out of a Hoyt to shoot 3d with I would shoot all of them and see what I thought. Don't know which I would like more. Most of their target bows have a 310 or lower IBO. That means I can't get over 270 out of them with my drawlength. Indoor is more about having a low poundage bow that fells good and is very forgiving. Mathews doesn't make anything with an 8.5 to 9 inch brace height to be as forgiving. Outdoor you have to have a decent speed because you have to judge yardage. Look at most outdoors shooters and see what is in their hands.........It's like comparing oranges and apples. Both have great qualities but each one was created for a specific taste. I can pull 280 out of my Apex 7 and it is long ATA with a generous brace height. Thats why I shoot it indoors and out.

PotashRLS Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I don't remember Chris being a member, but I like his picture! Dead critters are better than dots anyway. I know a lot of guys that pound the 12 spots but can't close the deal on a 2 year old buck. They shake like a leaf:D 2007 12pt. Jan. 1,2008 Yearling Doe.

Not sure how Vegas is biased; everyone shoots the same distance with strict controls on the scoring. These guys are so good, any of them should be able to win on a given day. Yet it's the guys with the Hoyts in their hands who get that little extra it takes to win at this level. As for 3D, one of the skills required IS judging distances correctly. So if you plop an arrow in at 250 fps when you've judged the distance correctly, you'll hit the appropriate spot. At any rate, there is no carte blanche for those of lesser skills to overcome that with lightening speed. Note Sec. 11.1 in the following regulations. http://www.bowhunters.ca/old_ABA/3D/20043DRULES.pdf Now, as for those deer the Mathews guys are showing off on this thread - very nice. Alas, my own hunting skills are wanting and I can only seem to come home with smaller ones. That's something I have to live with, I guess. Good thing I have a Hoyt to help me out.
