Hoyt Carbon Spyder Turbo...I'm in love!!!

[Beendare]

Of course I'm a lefty, so it probably doesn't apply to me...I'll see mine in September. LOL

Yeah, me too. They run all of the RH models and then finally get around to LH....treat us like stepchildren I tell ya.


I ordered a new Spyder Turbo a couple years ago and even though I ordered early- it took months to get it.....I'm thinking it was March or so as I recall....Pretty sure I ordered beginning of Nov. Guys that ordered their leftys in feb got theirs the same time i did

Lefty dude on AT got his CST already. Said he ordered it in August...not sure how he did that, or if he did and he just now got a 2014 CST! I ordered mine in December and I'm planning on March or April.

We have received in a lefty already so they are shipping some. Also have received left handed Nitrum Turbos also. So it shouldn't be that long of a wait for you guys.

Question for you guys. How does the cam in this bow feel compared to a 2012 hoyt vector 32 with the rkt cam 1/2.

I ordered a black one, and was roughly 6 weeks I think. I've seen the Camo in stock just about everywhere that carries Hoyt.

Yeah I've never had super long waits for a new bow from them. I was just being facetious. But I am planning on a 12 week wait, so anything ahead of that is gravy, and anything up to 16 wouldn't surprise me. But good to hear there's some lefty carbons hitting the street.

I have the Vector 32 and got my Carbon Spyder Turbo ZT about a month ago. The new turbo cam is stiff up front like the RKT cam, but seems to pull a little harder than the RKT. The turbo peaks later in the cycle than the RKT and has a steeper drop into the valley. The valley is a bit shorter, but manageable.

I love the new turbo and have no regrets whatsoever buying it. I struggled to get my Vector to tune very well and my turbo yoke tuned in no time. Being a speed bow, its one of the smoothest and quietest that I have shot.

Hmm. Thanks for that feedback. Sorry to derail the thread a bit.

I dont have the time to read the whole thread but my CST has a big hump at the last bit and there is ZERO valley for my to relax at my anchor point like a did with my other bow (Bowtech) Its causing me to get tired super fast and groups have opened WAY up! I could no BS do 6-8" groups at 100 but now I group that at 60! to be honest lil scared to shoot any farther as arrows add up... any ideas or tricks that may help me out?

Thanks!

Check your timing

Got a new set of strings, a max-1 quiver and max-1 limbs. Turkey season can't get here fast enough.

 

[shaun]

looks good

 

[elkbowkevin]

I shot a 289 15x and 294 21x vagas round with my CST a while back. Loving it!

 

[kodiakfly]

Got a surprise today. My LH CSTZT 29/70 showed up with no ship date and right at 5 weeks. Of course it's in Anchorage and I won't pick it up till March...but it's in!

 

[kodiakfly]

Picked it up over the weekend. I too, am in love.

Like said, check the timing, make sure cams are hitting stops about even. Are you shooting it at the same draw length as the bowtech? If so, drop the draw length by 1/2 and inch and you'll probably notice a word of difference.

 

[rmekus]

Just picked up my cst in left hand yesterday! I needed the opposite adjustment in draw length. I was shooting my RPM360 at 27 inch and on the Hoyt we needed to swap to the 27.5. I am super excited about this bow it just feels better to me then my bt.
