I just bought a Hoyt Powermax. My 1st bow. Pretty excited then the state closed the ranges. My property is too small to shoot safely so I just look at it for now. Bought some new pedals too.
And joined Bikes and Beer virtual ride. Portion of the proceeds are going to help those dealing with the virus 1st hand and I get some beer and bike related swag, tying together 2 things I really like.
Awesome! I’m between a Hoyt Alpha and the Mathews VXR. I’m lucky cuz I can shoot 20 yards in my back yard. Actually really relaxing. My archery shop has always told me they sell tons of the Powermax. Super bow for the money I hear.
Have had the VXR 28 for about 2 months now and LOVE it. I can shoot to 40 yds at the house which helps.
Out of curiosity how y’all are you? I’m 6’2” and was leaning more toward something 30” ATA and above but not sure.
I’m 5’10”. I went with the shorter ATA because 90% of my hunting is out west out of a backpack. And I felt the string angle at draw with the 31.5 wasn’t “right”.
The store owner went with the 31.5 for the opposite reason. He is probably 6’ +/- and liked the string angle at draw much more for him ( not so steep ) on the longer bow.
