Turkeygirl Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Wondering who's planning on or thinking about a new bow for 2011? I'veh ad my Hoyt for 5 years...thinking it's time to upgrade, weight is maxed out, bow actually feels small to me now,lol. Anyone got your eyes on anything specific? I'll be looking at Hoyt and Mathews/Mission most likely but there's a Bowtech dealer nearby as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western NY bowhunter Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I've got a new one on order. The new mission line is pretty nice. Bowtech/Diamond also have a very impressive lineup for 2011 with prices $200 less than Hoyt or Mathews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USAFbowhunter Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 well Ruth I got a new 2010 Bowtech Admiral the end of Oct so I won't be upgrading in 2011. If you are looking for a new bow I would look at the new Bowtech Assassin or Heartbreaker. They both come fully set up and shoot great and are under $650. I am just loyal to Bowtech/Diamond because of all the support that they give the military with discounts and donations to T.A.P.S. ( Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm23494 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I'm looking at replacing the 7 year old Hoyt MagnaTec that I have with a new Hoyt Rampage XT. Got a chance to look at them and shoot a few arrows and they are one sweet bow for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNTINGMAN Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I'll be looking at the bowtechs again this year. It will be hard to let the SBXT go though,may just upgrade strings and accessories for it,it's still my favorite bow I have ever shot.

Huddy Hunter Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Same Here!! I'm looking at replacing the 7 year old Hoyt MagnaTec that I have with a new Hoyt Rampage XT. Got a chance to look at them and shoot a few arrows and they are one sweet bow for the price. I also had a chance to shoot a few arrows through the Rampage XT and I absolutely loved it!! I'll be slinging my arrows with that next year as well!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silent arrow Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 if i cant find a "Diablo" I'll probably go for the '11 stinger or chaos. nothing is set in stone. you cant go wrong with any bows made these days. thought of picking up a crossbow for my boy.he wants to hunt so bad!

TREESTANDSNYPER Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) For the first time since my first yearI started bowhunting (13 years ago) I'm sticking with the bow I have right now. I've owned a ton of bows over the past years, I'd say on average 5 new bows every year. I've finally found a bow that I shoot extremely well and fits me perfectly. I got this bow back in about September, and it has finally occurred to me after all these years that if it aint broke...don't mess with it.

RangerClay Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 No new bow for me because I just bought one in August. But after seeing the new Hoyt line-up, I kinda wish I had waited a little while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Not me said the flea. My bow is still smokin fast and not even really broke in so Im sticking with it! Until I see something that just really impresses me i likely wont buy another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 Well there certainly isn't anything wrong with my 2003 Bowtech Extreme Solo. It has flat gotten the job done for me everywhere I've used it. But this Christmas I got a used Pearson Z-34 with the R2B2 Cams. It's a 70-80lb bow. Still have to finish outfitting it and tuning it. That will have to wait until I can afford it. I have shot it quite a bit set at 77lbs and it's very nice to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danthehuntinman Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I ordered a bow last week just waiting for it to come in I got the bowtech destroyer 350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcot2773 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I will be switching. Unless they flagship bow from bowtech just totally blows me away it will be the assassin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I ordered a bow last week just waiting for it to come in I got the bowtech destroyer 350. I've shot a friend of mines 350. Seriously great bow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I was looking at the Destroyer, but it won't be anytime soon. My Newberry still kills deer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Since i just bought my Z7 in October, I don't think I'll be getting anything new any time soon. I will be getting a new rest, sight, and quiver for it though Edited December 30, 2010 by Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My trusty 2004 Browning Eclipse SLX keeps killing things when I shoot at them. I was thinking of replacing it for '11. Was looking at the PSE Omen. I just can't see spending $900 to fix something that ain't broken. I've kinda come to the conclusion that as long as the Browning doesn't break, it's my tool. I like it. It likes me. Life is still good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'm selling my DXT and I have an all black 2011 Hoyt CRX 32 on order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tecumseh Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I'm going to wait another year,New arrows are what I have to get next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I've been looking. I'm shooting more and more. My '07 TechHunter Elite is showing wear. I'll be looking at and shooting a lot; PSE Dream Season EVO, Mathews Z7 Magnum, Bowtech "Invasion", Bowtech Assasin, Bowtech Destroyer 350, maybe a Hoyt CRX 32, and Bear Carnage. Possibly test out some new G5 and Strothers bows too, because there's a dealer here for them. Shot the PSE Omen and Mathews Monster XLR8 and realized they're a bit agressive for me. I don't think I'd be able to draw one in a treestand, at 70 lbs, and without being seen. Maybe good 3D bows and that's it. If the Bowtech Heart Breaker has draw posts at both ends Jess might be getting that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
