What bow do you shoot?

Mathews - Hel-M 60lbs. 30” draw.

A lot of guys upgrade each year or so. I have not found a bow that I can shoot as well as this one.

I had the helium. Good bow. Sold mine. Kicking myself still.

Hoyt Reflex Grizzly. Almost bought the Mathews Triax, but focused on Kestrel, Mantis, Predatot and other gear, so it will wait till next year.

I took a lot of deer with reflex Grizzly! Miss that bow!
 
Elite Synergy. Before that a Matthews Featherlite.

Used to hunt with a Wicked Ridge Invader on occasion, but sold it. Considering picking up another crossbow for those "I mean business" WMA meat hunts.

I bought it as a leftover model. Ie saving $$ 4 years ago. I shot two ROBIN HOODS the same day with it. I have had Mathew dealers and hunters tell me the same. “I wish I never got rid of it.” It holds its tune very well.
 
2015 Prime Rival
60lb DW
30" DL

Love this bow. Don't ever plan on getting rid of it, but would like to add a Prime Logic to the collection someday.
 
Since the '94 season my choice has been an Acadian Woods Carbon Signature recurve. 60" & 58# @ 28". Just this past week Tim Mullins started working on a new one for me. It's going to be the exact same bow with the exception of being 45# @ 27". Plus, some of the new "fancy stuff" that he now offers for his custom bows. I'm excited and looking forward to my first saddle kill with it this season.
 
2013 Elite Answer.



Also currently (slowly) making my first hickory selfbow. Have it floor tillered and actually built the tillering rack yesterday, but it being so humid here all summer I think I am better off just waiting until winter to finish it. Eventually plan to hunt with trad bows but it may be many years before I feel like making the jump.
 
I'm still shooting the first bow I ever bought which was a cheapy. Redhead kronik. I keep saying I'm going to upgrade, but have you have to do it.

I’ve made fun of Blowtech for a long time lol. I shoot the different models every year just to see what’s changed and this year I couldn’t put the Realm down. Just a great shooting rig! I do miss my Obsession though.

I'm not brand loyal either. I have a owned em all. I think everyone makes a good bow anymore. I had an obsession m6z for a little bit. It was a nice bow. I think the bow I miss the most is a 2006 bowtech tribute or elite option 6. But the realm is a shooter

I'm a right-handed shooter but I appreciate you thinking about me. Man we sure do have a lot of lefties that are a member of this forum. I think we had more lefties than righties at Saddle Palooza which is kind of odd. If I'm going to make the jump into Trad hunting I may make that purchase before upgrade on a compound. It's not the best bow but it's as able as I am. Unless I'm hunting the edge of a food plot I can't ever see me making more than a 30-yard shot in the woods. It's generally too thick where I hunt. Probably the main reason I have not been in too big of a hurry to upgrade.
