Hopefully getting a new bow this year and I'm debating between an 80 lb defiant or a 70 lb defiant turbo. Only reason I ask on this forum is because I will not be able to shoot an 80 lb defiant before I make a decision. I understand there will be some differences in the draw cycle and I would expect that. I will be shooting at 27" with a 500+ gr arrow.
I would expect the 80 lb defiant to be a little bit faster than the turbo but maybe not as much as one might think.
I'd also expect the 80 lb bow to be a bit nicer to hold as the turbo cams want to take off a little easier.
However, 80 lbs is 80 lbs and if it only gives me 10 fps more than the turbo, I think I would lean towards the turbo.
I'm hoping someone in here has had the same type of scenario with hoyt bows of the past couple years and can weigh in on their decision. Any thing I haven't thought of? Regrets? Anyone shoot a 80 lb defiant and compare to a defiant turbo?
Thanks for the time and feedback
