Wow.......Smokin Hoyt

Jame told me that Vantage pro was faster than Hoyt gives it credit. Ummmmmm I would say yeah..........

Vantage Pro
61.7 lbs
28" draw
310 grain Pro 22

Shot 303..........3 times back to back

Pretty dang good for a bow that's supposed to be a 308 IBO and has a 7 3/4 brace height.

My Hoyt Contender is the same.

27 in DL
52 Lbs
315 gr arrow
272 FPS

That converts to way over advertised speed. I think the Hoyts do really well at shorter draw lengths.

Cant wait to get mine and see how fast it goes. Im getting the contender

I'm getting 280 fps out of my Vantage Elite at 64 lbs with a 450 grain triple X. But I do have a little dl advantage (31").

I might have to shoot an IBO arrow through it just to see what I would be. I'm betting I could push that 320 mark with out a lot of tweaking.

It was the arrow builder that made your bow shoot so fast.

Mo_Archergirl · 03-31-2010, 07:09 PM

We will find out how fast mine is tomorrow. My contender came in tonight.

Im saying my Hoyt Pro Elite has been a pleasure to shoot for sure.

Really nice bows. I thank Jame, Kevin Ballinger and Chris Hacker for all recommending it to me. It certianly a pleasure to shoot.

Yep, I finally got my down and got to shoot under controlled conditions tonight(no wind)..............stacked 3 arrows in an X ring on 5 spot. Lovin it so far.

I got a chance to shoot Texomabowhunters Ultraelite setup for 3d yesterday and I can tell you that bow suprised me. Didn't expect a 6 3/4 brace height with spiral cams to shoot that smooth.

TexomaBowhunter · 04-01-2010, 09:19 PM

Well I'm two months in with it and so far I'm diggin it!

Mo_Archergirl · 04-02-2010, 07:35 AM

when I get the all the specs and stuff I will post them. But for now here is what it looks like!

RandyD · 04-02-2010, 07:54 AM

Nice bow Mary, but my new Shadowcat looks better! Lol Hey, tell your dad we have a local shoot tomorrow up by dtajr's shop.
