Default Hoyt Charger

Didn't see a Hoyt bow mentioned in the thread. My son's been shooting one of these and is trying to talk me into going in with him on it. I've been thinking about doing some bow shooting and out here in Oregon, the bow season is way longer than rifle season. Anyone have any experience with a Hoyt Charger?

Three years ago I was looking at the Charger and the Spyder (aluminum riser) and I was much more impressed with the Spyder. It was smoother and quieter at the time. Over the past 5 years most of my hunting buddies have made the switch over to Hoyt because of the quality of the product.

I was lucky enough to be demolishing a house at the time and was able to salvage enough scrap brass & copper to pay for the bow.

Well, my son bought the bow and he likes it so far. I haven't shot it yet but am looking forward to it. Thanks engstrom for your comments.

Yahoo!! My brother and I got drawn for a bull moose this year. It's my favorite critter to hunt and call in.

Just started my 2015 hunting season. I've been out for bull moose my brother and I both got drawn in a zone with some biggies around. Almost had one yesterday it was in at 30 yards no shot presented. Just like they always do he only stopped with a tree blocking his vitials. I have the rest of the week off to bag one hope to report back with some game photos. Here's one of the country I hunted today.

Got er done!!!!!! Got this nice young bull at 25 yards 100 grain rage slip cam through the ribs. He made it a whole 30 yards before tipping over in one of the niceest setting I've had the privilege of witnessing. Now to get the smoker and sausage stuffer working.
