Congrats on the new bow. The new Hoyt is a cool looking bow for sure. I just wish they would've made it ILF instead of coming up with their own system that forces you to buy their limbs.

Its Monday, did it come?!

iawoody2 · « **Reply #7 on:** November 23, 2010, 12:41:00 AM »

Pick it up in the morning, set it up and shoot it. Will post my thoughts later.
Thanks, Bob
Must have sent it pony express????

OK, I have it setup and shooting with my Beaman Classic's and 125 pts. The bow is 60in and 45lbs. I only have had time for about 30-40 shots, but is smooth, quiet, and goes right where you look. Very happy, will be hunting with it in the morning. I might add that I have been bowhunting deer since 1959, and have owned numerous recurves.
Thanks, Bob

Isn't that the Bow Fred Eichler uses now?

iawoody2 · « **Reply #10 on:** November 24, 2010, 12:36:00 AM »

Yes, this is advertised as the Fred Eichler signature bow by Hoyt. It has his name on it in couple of places. The name Buffalo is because a water buff was his first harvest with it. I will be hunting at Fred's ranch next Sep.
Thanks, Bob

Is this bow able to adjust poundage? In the add of TBM is says, "With fully adjustable weight and tiller,".

bigugly1 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 27, 2011, 10:58:00 PM »

I haven't recieved mine yet but I've read it's tiller is adjustable to shooting style and weight has 2# adjustment. I'm really looking forward to getting mine. I also have a question iawoody2. Is the bow cut to center or past? Man I can't wait I have some radial Xweaves 200's all ready and waiting.

Bob,

I hate to be the one to burst your bubble however I must let you know.

Your going to like it.

macksdad · « **Reply #14 on:** January 28, 2011, 05:14:00 AM »

The tiller is adjustable and you can adjust draw weight by 2# . It's an awesome bow

If you look in the Hoyt catalog the riser is a short version of there Olympic bows. I would not doubt if the limbs were also, just camo'd or wood grained up. For the price I think it will be hard to beat. I may have to have one myself!!

Yes, I believe the limb fittings are the same as their Formula Risers. There are a lot of people upset with them however, because of the non-ILF fittings.

I've had my Buffalo (45@28) for a couple of weeks now and can say I prefer it to my Gamemaster. I'm shooting footed Easton Axis .400 arrows that weigh a little over 500 grains and it really seems to cast them with authority. ILF would have been nice, I was going to buy a second set of limbs until the shop quoted me almost $400 dollars for them.

iawoody2 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 28, 2011, 04:37:00 PM »

That's why I bought a second complete bow. Now I have 2 setup and ready. A 45 and a 50.

bigugly1 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 28, 2011, 06:24:00 PM »

iawoody2 you're killing me. I ordered mine 6 weeks ago with an extra set of limbs. I have the limbs but no bow yet and you have two already......argggggh
