    Bought a new Hoyt. Would make a loud snapping noise at almost full draw. Randomly. Had four tecs at bow shop look at this bow they took it apart said different things each time and was fixed. Was not. Finally took it back and exchanged for a bow Tec. Beautiful. Returned to comment on great bow Tec. They had called Hoyt. They said there were two washers on limbs missing and they didn’t know how many were shipped out that way. WOW. Just a small heads up.

    The biggest advantage plus ,or as I could put it is this way,,what I think is one of the biggest motivations and positives about archery, is when your getting into your personal relationship of experiences of hobby time is,IS getting a personalized customized fitting to your own personal body frame,,because archery is not, one size fits all, because with the variety of what the general industry has to offer that what the great past time of archery so dam insanely easy to get into, BEING PROPERLY FITTED AND PROPERLY TRAINED TO SHOOT, MEANS ONE THING, TAKE YOUR TIME AND SLOW DOWN, there are some of us older veterans in different manners of speaking, took up archery back in the 70s,80s,90s, that learned the time tested trade of paper tuning, because there are some younger folk out there that to this day that or might not know what paper tuning really means, because after getting the bow balanced and detailed, choosing the properly sized n spines arrows, f-o-c ,fletching will definitely give you some good insight on promising results, so best wishes to all and good luck and God's speed, ✝️👍⚖💸💰😎🇺🇸😪👌🖖🙏🎯💲🏹⚛💯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 and let's remember the most important thing of all GOD IS MERCIFUL, FORGIVING, AND LOVES EVERYONE, let's all try a little kindness from time to time, it will pay out bigger manners than you might ever realize, because I'm a very firm believer that archery and fishing is God's most favorite past time hobbies, wayneeden95@gmail.com

    I like the new touches but I don't see the reason to run out and upgrade from my RX-3 just yet. For someone who is looking to upgrade from a bow a few years back this would be a good choice. Although now the RX-3s will probably be cheaper now that these are out. I am however looking to buy the new Hoyt Invicta target bow. I have my RX-3 for hunting. I want a target setup now and that Invicta seems to be the bow to get.

    As a LIFELONG Hoyt shooter. I was really disappointed in the release other than the alpha being 29.5 ata. My wife has been shooting the RX3 turbo and myself thr RX3 ultra. And the alpha will be just the perfect size bow for her and with staying with the Carbon series which is what we shoot.

      Manufacturers use technology from other bow company’s. If they didn’t bows would be so much different that people wouldn’t be happy with anything they put out. However I’m a lifelong Hoyt shooter. And not biased to brand. I will say Matthews are so loud they sound like a dry fire when they’re shot vs a Hoyt which isn’t even close. Everyone kept bitching last year as Hoyt released the RX3 (WHY DONT YOU BUILD A SMALLER ATA) (WHY DONT YOU INTEGRATE THE QAD) so they do that and people still bitch. I do feel that the RX3 and RX4 differences are so minute that they could have just stuck with the RX3 for 2020 and released the upgraded aluminum risers. I did a comparison video of the RX3 and RX4 ultras today ( coming this weekend sometime on my channel) and my RX3 actually
      Outperformed the RX4 not to mention. Side by side you can’t even tell which one is which other than the decals.

      Antler Assassins TV- Bowhunting Television good points- I just don’t like that the year following the Triax, Hoyt now has a “new” front bottom end dampener. Or the QAD dove tail mount, the small axel to axel, ect. I will give them full credit on the carbon riser, but I feel like that was their last true innovation. Since then, I feel like they have been chasing Mathew’s tails.

I had a good laugh when they came out with the slow no cam design. NO Mathews is marketing even more than Hoyt. I would definitely buy a Hoyt over Mathews at this point but both haven’t changed enough to warrant buying a new bow at this point.

    Boring..... I am calling it. The 2021 Hoyt will have longer risers, like Mathews did this year. I swear Hoyt never ever comes out with anything innovative. They look at their competition and then implement their ideas the next year. Not saying they don’t make a great bow. Just saying I never see anything innovative from them. When is Hoyt going to go out on a limb (pun intended) and come up with their own ideas of how to improve shoot ability, stability, vibration reduction, or draw cycle???

      So far I feel the innovation award is going to belong to Elite. If they come out with a 35” version of that s.e.t. tech I’m going with them.
      I used to really anticipate the Hoyt release and even collected their catalogs for years. Hope they get back to being a leader soon.
