Equiptment Review (Archery)

[Christo13]

<font color="blue"> What kind of bows is everyone shooting? What is it about your equiptment that makes you choose this model rather than others? </font>

 

[gersdorf]

I shoot a PSE Primos bow, Easton carbon arrows, Thunderhead 100s, copper john sight, limb savor stabilizer. I have been shooting a PSE bow since I was 16. I was happy with the way it shoots and the price.

I'm shooting a Hoyt Cybertech. I would love to upgrade to the new Trykon or a new bowtech but the cybertech is fine for now.

My reasoning is I didn't want to jump on the Mathews bandwagon... Sorry Mathews shooters they're nice bows too...

 

[Stump Shooter]

I'm currently shooting a Hoyt Xtec. For no other reason other than that's what I liked when I bought it. I'm not partial to anyone one kind of bow. I could be shooting a Matthews, Bowtech or Hoyt and I'm sure I would still be just as happy. Same as I would be just fine if I were driving a Chevy vs. the Ford I have now. To me...it just doesn't matter.

'03 BowTech Patriot w/Spot Hogg sight &amp; ACC arrows. As a backup I have a Mathews FX. My Patriot is everything I want in a bow, at this point, I'm not even considering a different bow. Not really too crazy about the Fx, but it serves it's purpose.

I have a mathews conquest 2, trophy taker drop away rest, copper john dead nuts sight, and shoot easton axis arrows with rocky mtn snipers. This setup is very accurate, yet forgiving. Does great at archery shoots and in the woods. Couldn't ask for much better.

 

[jkratz5]

shoot a PSE firestorm, started with a PSE and loved it and because of this I when I started looking for new bows I started with PSE. I also wanted a short bow and they don't come much shorter than 30" ATA, and it weighs only 3lbs.

Other than that my setup is pretty standard, copper john dead nuts, whisker biscuit, Tru-glo quiver, and 100 grain thunderheads or 100 grain Shockwaves.

Well, I usally am shooting my Mathews Black Max 2, but after that first miss this year I put it on time out. I pulled out my Mathews Legacy and ended up keeping it out for the rest of the season. Both bows are set up with Extreme Sights and a Doodle Drop Rests. I shoot 100 Grain Rocket Broadheads with Carbon Impact Arrows and I love the comination.

Mathews Legacy. I switched to being a lefty two seasons ago and got a pretty good deal on the lefty bow...figured that I would have a hard time going wrong with Mathews. Copper John Dead Nuts 5 pin sights because they are a sight for the price and a Whisker Biscut rest because I do some still hunting and the arrow stays put while walking through the brush. In addition, my Whisker Biscut arrow rest is the only Whisker Biscut I see during bow season

I use a Judge release.

 

[Rudd]

Bowtech Defender, Trophy Taker, Toxonics sight, sims module stabilizer, cat quiver, Easton Axis arrows tipped with Montec g5 broadheads. I love this set-up. Backup is a Black Widow recurve, Gold Tip arrows tipped with Snuffers. The backup is a pleasure to carry to the stand. Just need to commit to it and kill something with it.

Mathews Switchback 60lbs, Spott Hogg Right on Sight, NAP Quicktune Drop Away, Gold Tip Pro Hunter 55/75, Muzzy 100 4 Blade on the business end.

 

[roadking]

Mathews Switchback XT set at 67lbs., APA Twister drop away, Vital Bow Gear Angular 5 pin Sight, Sure Peep 1/4", Beman ICS 400 Camo Hunters fletched with Blazers and Quickspins and topped off with Muzzy 3 blade 100 grain broadheads.

[stickbow98]

55# Schafer Silvertip, 29" Sitka Spruce arrows fletched w/ (4) 5 1/2 parabolic feathers and tipped with 125 gr. 3 bl. Wensel Woodsman broadheads.

Lightweight, silent, simple, and effective.
