Hoyt Eclipse

[N2TRKYS]

Anybody seen a review on this setup with a 60 lbs draw weight and at 28” draw length? Curious as to the velocity that they got.

Podium archery got 280 at 25 inches and 50 lbs. Not sure if that can be extrapolated or not. It's basically the same speed as Mathews Prima with a longer brace. Only annoying thing is Hoyt put a cable slide on there.

I’ve seen some vids that used heavier arrows than he did. The numbers looked good, if it would extrapolate. Maybe somebody will do a test to find out.
I think my old Mathews MQ1 had a cable side on it and my bow before it, but I could be wrong.

Are you looking at this bow for you or someone else?

Just in general. These bows might be sleepers, if they shoot as fast as the “rule of thumbs” indicate.

I think so as well. However they are only 28 inches ATA. Great option for a smaller frame though for sure.

Hoyt has it listed as 29” ata. A fast-ish bow at low poundage, at sub 4 lbs, and a couple hundred dollars cheaper than the flagship bows would be awesome.

If you’re going of specs purely the regular Torrex has just as good specs and it’s still cheaper than the Eclipse.

It seems slower in some of the reviews I’ve seen for some reason. Idk?

It would be nice to see a sub 4 lbs Ventum or V3.

I know, it's actually 28.
