Hi

I just ordered a brand new Hoyt Dorado in #45.
I'M too excited !!!!!!!
I've owned a Gamemaster before, Is there any difference between them ???
I will use Axis arrows in 400 spine
What do you think ??

thanks !!!!!

I think the Axis 400's will be to heavy of a spine....FWIW, Im shooting CX Heritage 150's(.487 spine) and GT 35/55 Traditionals(.500 spine) with a 145gr point weight.

Excellent bow, my favorite of the metal riser Hoyts, and I have two Excels!  I think you might be better off with .500 spine arrows though, .400 even left long will be way too stiff.  BTW, one of my Excels is 45# and I use .500 spine arrows.

Hoyt Excel  50# 64"

Ok but on Easton shaft selector, 400 spine is recommended......

Easton charts are good for compounds not stick bows. The 500 or even 600 spine is what you need.

I love mine!  I'm shooting Beman MFX Classics 400's w/ a 125 grn field point and a 50 grn insert.

It has been a good combo for me!

I have a 45#er and it shoots the GT 5575 31.5"s long from valley to insert. using a 50 grain brass insert and a 145gr 5/16ths field point. And they fly great. My brace height is just a hair over 7.5 and nock point is a smidge under 1/2" high.

you'll love the dorado I shoot xx75 in 500 spine . My dorado is 50# i think the 400 will be to stiff spine for you.

Willhunting,

My bow is 45#.  I've been shooting good and looking forward to Traditional Only 3D league starting on the 23rd.

Hope my brother/team partner has been shooting as much as I have!
