Hoyt Bow Reviews

The Bottom Line:The Axius Alpha is the most compact hunting bow ever designed by Hoyt, and it marks off a large number of wants for those on the market for a short hunting bow. There is a fair amount of performance with an ATA speed rating of 342 feet per second. The 4.3-pound bare bow weight is also fairly lightweight... read full review

The Bottom Line:Hoyt has really hit a homeroom for shooters wanting a 40-inch axle-to-axle target bow. Everything about this, and the redesigned components was done to create the best, most accurate shooting platform possible. However, the price is borderline offensive with a bare bow price of $1899. To be fair, many... read full review

The Axius Ultra... read full review

The Bottom Line:The Hoyt Invicta 37 DCX is an awesome bow designed for championship caliber tournament archers. The DCX cam is a bit speedier, has a solid back wall, and has two let-off options. This bow has amazing upgrades from the previous models, feels great, and is offered in amazing color options. The modular... read full review

The Bottom Line:The RX-4 Ultra is the third installment of the REDWRK branding from Hoyt, and it is arguably the best carbon model Hoyt has ever produced. The changes to the cam system, although somewhat minor, have really made a better shooting experience with a smoother draw, firmer back wall, and quieter shot. The... read full review

The Bottom Line:The RX-4 Turbo is a great shooting bow. It has a maneuverable frame with a compact 31-inch axle-to-axle measurement, and an ATA rated 350 feet per second gives shooters a lot of options for arrow weight and kinetic energy versus raw speed for each to choose what makes the most sense for them. For shooters... read full review

For... read full review

Everything about the bow and the re-engineering was done to provide target shooters the most stable and forgiving platform possible. The SVX cam is a tournament favorite for Hoyt pro staffers... read full review

The Bottom Line:An MSRP of $1899 is a ton of money to spend on any compound bow, regardless of the style of archery or brand. The Hoyt Invicta 37 SVX is expensive, and for some shooters may be really hard to justify. For others, having a Hoyt target bow designed to put shooters in the best possible position to win tournaments... read full review

The Bottom Line:Hoyt Archery took what was a great bow platform, made a few key improvements, and reintroduced it as the all new Klash for 2017. With a lightweight, modern, parallel-limbed riser, a vast array of adjustability in both the draw weight and draw length ranges, and a compact design, this compound has it... read full review

The Bottom Line:The Helix is a non-apologetic hunting bow. Everything from the compact design, the overall performance, and the feel of the Helix is done to create the meanest hunting bow Hoyt can produce with an aluminum riser. The new grip is easy to shoot, and the lateral movement options to get the best tune possible... read full review

The Bottom Line:The Helix Ultra has the ability to be shot for the entire year as it makes for a great hunting rig, 3D bow, or perhaps even a spot bow for the right shooter. The color options are fantastic, and the aluminum risers look great in each pattern. The new grip is one of the best feeling grips from Hoyt, possibly... read full review

The Bottom Line:To earn the RedWrx badge, the RX-3 Ultra had to endure and withstand the 1500 dry fire test and the 1,000,000 draw cycle test at 80-pounds and 30-inches of draw. So, not only does the engineering team do their homework in producing a great shooting bow, it is also put through a rigorous testing cycle... read full review

The Bottom Line:The RX-3 Turbo is a compact speed bow, with some of the best technology on the market today. Shooters will benefit from the carbon riser design in a lot of ways, and the new cams have an outstanding feeling. The Hoyt RX-3 Turbo has been tweaked for the better by getting a new riser design, new cams,... read full review

The Bottom Line:Everything about the RX-3 is special. The redesign took Hoyt's line of "Good is not good enough," straight to heart looking at how to improve every major component of the bow giving shooters the best experience possible. The results are evident in the looks and feel of the bow with this Hoyt feeling... read full review

The Bottom Line:The Hyperforce is great! The bow shoots well, offers everything shooters want in a 2018 hunting bow, and features Hoyt advancements in technology that are improvements on previous model designs. It is disappointing to see Hoyt seemingly moving away from aluminum risers with the 2018 model year. In the... read full review

The Bottom Line:Hoyt says the REDWRX badge is a new indicator of the best they have to offer. The new RX-1 has gone through a significant amount of research and development, and has withstood Hoyt's 1500 dry fire tests and a million draw cycles. This durability should instill a great amount of confidence in potential... read full review

The Bottom Line:The Ultra reverts back to when Hoyt produced 35-inch axel-to-axel flagship hunting bows. The upgrades for the 2018 calendar year gives shooters the sense that every single component of the bow is well thought out and properly executed. The draw is outstanding, and the new cam system is without a doubt... read full review

The Bottom Line:The REDWRX series is the stamp of approval from Hoyt meaning the bow is the best of everything Hoyt has to offer. The RX-1 Turbo is the speed demon of the new series, and an ATA rating of 350 feet per second places the Hoyt among many of the fastest bows on the market, especially considering the higher... read full review
