But I would have to tell you to go and try as many bows as possible so you can get the one that feels comfortable to you.

I originally went into my semi-local shop wanting a PSE and after just handling the different bows and seeing how the felt in my hand and drawing them back and feeling differences in cams and let off the Hoyt just felt the best. Every time I walk into the shop I do the same thing to see the diffences and I always land on the Hoyt. I would like to build another one this year but I'm not rushing out this afternoon to do it. I've been real happy with the above pictures Hoyt Vtech.
I would love to pick up the new Katera

Might just have to mention to the wife that it would be a perfect anniversary gift this month.

Brace height is going away but that seems to be the trade for a faster bow.

I just picked up the new hoyt katera and case 3 weeks ago. I did like stated above went to the bow shop and shot the Mathews DXT, the Bowtech 82nd airborne, and the katera. Out of the 3 it just felt the best in my hand.

Yeah I was shooting everyday, but kind of slacked off now. I have her sited in for 20, 30, 40 and 50. I dont really even shoot over 40 in the woods but it there incase I need it. It is a flat, smooth shooting son of a gun and I am very happy with it.
