Hoyt X Tec Bows
Bows Manufacturer: Hoyt
Hoyt Model: X Tec
Review Category: Bows
Purchase: Bows I paid $650 for the bow from a Hoyt dealer. I was originally looking at a cheaper reflex bow but was sold on the x-tec after i held it in my hand. I loved the thin grip.
Things I like about the Hoyt X Tec Bows: The bow is extremely accurate and quiet. I feel extremely confident when shooting from any position. I can shoot out to 30-35 yards with a single pin. On a 62lb draw wieght. I don't plan on shooting any further than that, but I suppose that I could.
What I don't like about the Hoyt X Tec : It is a tad heavy in my opinion. I don't know the exact weight, but it isn't as light as other bows that I have seen.
Bows X Tec quality: It is put together very well. The rubber part of the grip started to peal off at the bottom. I put electrical tape around where it pealed. Other than that minor issue it has been great.
X Tec summary: Spending $650 on a bow may seem like a lot of money. Especially since new technology comes out quicker and quicker. It has been three years now since I bought the x-tec. Everytime I pick up a magazine there seems to be more and more bows each year that surpass my x-tec. Bows are getting shorter, faster and quieter, but do they really shoot that much better? When I bought this expensive bow I new that technology would advance and that my bow would be "left in the dust." However, finding a bow that shoots as well as this bow does on a 62lb draw weight is priceless. It is extremelly accurate and i don't feel like I'm fighting a monkey in the tree to draw it back. If it shoots this good now it will shoot good in the years to come. The confidence that comes when you know you can shoot accurately is unmeasurable. Why "upgrade" when i know i have a bow that does everything that i want.
