my brother just bought the new hoyt and since i had never shot it i drove over and did a little review on it.. When you first pick up the bow you notice how balanced it is.. Also being a shorter bow than mine it weighed less too..The grip seemed a little weird to me(have shot PSE all mylife so im used to their small grip) but all in all it handled good.. It was a 70# bow that i pulled back with ease..The draw cycle is smooth ,little hump and a decent back wall..When the bow was fired there was little vibration to your hand (unnoticeable)..The arrow shots staaight with only 3 in of drop from 20 to 30 yds ( keep in mind this is a hunting set-up)..Also this may be one of the quietest bows i have ever shot...I would give this bow a 10.. just wanted to give a review for anyone interested in buying them one..
