Hoyt Avenger Plus Compound Bow

The Hoyt Avenger Plus was a one-year refinement done right: it kept everything that made the 2007-2008 Avenger the value "sleeper" of the Hoyt line - the TEC aluminum riser, XT1000 split limbs, quiet damping, and very wide fit range - and upgraded the cam to Cam & 1/2 Plus for a firmer, more defined wall, all at period dealer pricing of around $599 in camo (target-color risers ran roughly a hundred more). It holds a 309 fps IBO rating and a genuinely light 4-pound mass, and its 40-to-80-pound, 22.5-to-30.5-inch range means one bow fits a whole household. On today's used market it is the most polished version of this platform to own, provided a buyer confirms the draw-length module is present and freshens the strings. Shooting it back-to-back with the original Avenger, the firmer wall is the difference I notice first. An excellent bow for the value-minded whitetail or hog hunter who wants a calm, composed shot and one adjustable bow to share across the family. Buyers who want the widest possible growth range should also look at the Diamond Razor Edge, while those chasing the most speed for the dollar can consider the PSE Bow Madness... read full review
