Post Elite bows
I'm looking to buy a new hunting bow and I know as for as to which brand of bow it's a Ford Chevy kind thing but I'm looking at the Elite bow and wondered if anyone has tried them ... I'm a lefty so I can't find one in a hundred miles of me ..

Bowtech guy here too. Just as smooth IMO but a little extra speed to boot. I shoot the Experience.

I shoot an elite and it is by far the smoothest and quietest bow I have shot. My old neighbor sells them and his customers have been very satisfied with them. I have shot most of the big named bows out there and would take my elite over all of them.

Post Re: Elite bows
Mathews is the best bow by a long shot. I owned and shot just about every make and style. Mathews archery has won me many of tournaments. Unfortunately Mathews charges an arm and a leg for equipment. So it is not for everyone. If you are looking for something great but a little cheaper go Bowtech. You can not go wrong with Bowtech. I will strongly suggest that you stick with solo cam if you can though. They may not be the fastest but they are accurate, smooth and easy to keep tuned.
If you are looking at crossbows then stick with ten point. They last forever. I had a very successful season last year with ten point and Mathews. I prefer archery and crossbow hunting over anything else. It is addictive

I'm strictly a bow hunter and have a 06 diamond now ... It's a little tough to draw back in cold weather cause of the extra layers of clothing ... Bowtech s are my next chose .. I'm looking for smooth draw and accuracy ... Hoyt's are very pricey !

I switched from Mathews to Elite about 3 years ago and have no plans of going back. I love my Elite, extremely smooth and quiet.

Post Re: Elite bows
Have owned 4 diff elites, I love them, for the price I think they are the best, I've been looking at carbon spider turbo, but idk about the price, mine I shoot is a judge, and with a little tweeking it throws a goldtip velocity at 340, it's very accurate, but it's a little ruff drawing at 70lbs, but it will flat blow through a 250lb hog no problem. Id say just shoot allot of bows, and one will stand out.

Over the past 7-8 years, I've shot multiple brands of bows(Hoyt, Mathews, Mission, Parker, Elite, and PSE).
I currently shoot a PSE EVO Max but in all honesty, the Elite Pure has the smoothest draw cycle and shot that I have experienced.

Well I orders me an Elite Energy 32 ... I shot a lot of bows to find the right one for me ... I was disappointed in Mathews creed had the worst hand viberation of all .. The Hoyt spider would be my second chose .. Mathews is spending it's money on spinsters not research and development .. Bowtech is focused on speed not shot able bows ...

Been lookin at bows myself and talked to a dealer about elite and with the lifetime transferable warranty and the hunt guarantee they seem like. a hard company to beat.
