- I compare the two bows I am going to hunt with this year and show key features from both. I am impressed by how well the lower priced Torrex XT shoots. It is a super solid bow that will do anything you need a compound bow to do at a lower price than Hoyt's top bows. I also discuss my shooting method and why a hard back wall at full draw is so important to consistent accuracy.

I LOVE Hoyt bows too Bill. Glad you haven’t gone Mathew’s like everyone else. Looking forward to more Bowhunting Whitetails. You should give saddle hunting a try Bill. I’m 58 and been doing it for 3 years now. It’s an awesome tool for more mobility.
Great to see you shooting and showing us some entry level bows. Thanks Bill.
Thanks for the comment. That Torrrex is a very good bow.
I hope you speaking about Hoyt carbon ! 800£ torrex xt in not entry level bow 200£ it is . Do you own iPhone 15 ? And every year you buying new iPhone and computer 🖥️ and the old one you call entry level. You are the one who ? Who paying 1700$ for a bow and saying is great bow no hand vibrations. Let me bring up something not sure if you has been watching wolf of Wall Street? If you did there is a moment where he trick customer and solid insurance but behind laugh and shows him middle finger. Is just like with Hoyt carbon bow 1700$ ? Hoyt mast laugh behind your back. Ask yourself what technology is behind? Why cost so moch every year? Is just fricking bow the principal of the bow is the same and always will be doesn’t matter if they change a little in cam .
@@piterex7 chill out mofo
@@piterex7ur definitely right, it does the same exact thing 😂
Thanks Bill! I’ve killed a couple good bucks with my Torrex XT. Been really happy with it!
Thanks Josh. I am looking forward to it. Have a great day.
Looking forward to seeing them B3 broadheads! Heard good things about their heads
I will produce another short video probably later in the week where I talk about the heads and the arrows in more detail. Have a great day.
My compound that I used was a rampage xt. Lower end hoyt but is fine. I switched to traditional archery a few years back but the lower end hoyt was great. Best thing with any hoyt is the warranty.
Thanks for the tip awhile back about the grip on the RX7. I think part of the problem was having to much weight on back bar. Took 2 weights off and could tell right away what you were talking about. The pressure being in the heal of the hand. Plus had to go back to old release. The ultraview button I couldn't get my hand under my chin enough. Feel good shooting out to 50 yards now. That bow is so nice. Thanks again
You are welcome Josh. I am glad that helped. It is a really nice bow, probably the best one Hoyt has ever made and that says something. Have a great day.
I was told by a Archery proshop owner buy a Cadillac bow and put on Ferrari accessories he has seen guys come in wanting the Ferrari bow and put on Walmart accessories because they can't afford anything else Good luck this season
I agree with that decision. The accessories are the key as long as the basic bow itself is well made and tuneable.
The Torrex XT is a nice bow, I own one and it absolutely does the job and my opinion it’s the perfect bow
Good input Mark. Much appreciated. I like it too.
i just started hunting last year and i bought the xt, i love it but i so so want a VTM..I think its awesome you’re gunna use it this year Bill!
Thanks Dr Green. I appreciate the comment and look forward to shooting a deer with that bow. It is a good choice. Have a great day.
I've killed two turkeys with my Torrex. Love it. Gives me hoyt quality, but entry level price. Thanks for the tip on the lighted sight.
Thanks for the comment and congrats on your success. I use the sight light on most of my shots even when I am not in a blind if the light is a bit low. Have a great day and good luck this season.
The Hoyts look like great bows. Great advice. I practice with a hinge most of the time. Just to get use to holding on target. But I’m still a Spott Hogg Wiseguy fan.
And I’m 100% certain Mr. Winke could kill a deer with a white tail hunter!! The archer makes the bow. Luke 9:62
Believe it or not, I owned a Whitetail Hunter (probably one of the first years they were made) but I didn't kill a deer with it. I shot it instinctively back then and wasn't super good at that! The old Weatherest fell the bow every fourth or fifth shot, so I am sure there wasn't much consistent about that rig. The Wise Guy is a good release. Just got the new prototype from B3 today and really like that. It came with a two finger trigger (index and middle). Looks like the Hawk Swivel, but lighter trigger. Man, I can sure make a surprise release with that. I used to do all my off-season shooting with a hinge too - very good for your overall form. Have a great day.
Thanks for Dreamin Big!
Thanks for the comment. Have a great day.
I shoot an old mathews switchback xt and probably will forever,it's shoot awesome and probably would never spend the kinda money it cost for a new one,but I sure do like the hoyts,there sweet bows,my buddy just bought a used one and it's bad to the bone,great video and some really good tips,thanks for sharing
Thanks for the comment Scott. Those older Mathews bows are still getting a lot of use. Also, buying used is not a terrible idea if you know something about the bow or have some way to test shoot it first. Good luck.
Shot Hoyt’s for years now, best bow out there.
Thanks Mitchell. I have always liked them too. Started shooting them back in 1997.
I bought a Torrexx XT the 1st year they came out.. it's a fantastic bow for the money.. it shoots great
Thanks Paul. Yes, I really like it and will hunt with it some. It is not quite long enough to make my draw length, but I can still shoot it fine. Have a great day and good luck.
these "entry" level bows are light years ahead of what I was using and killing deer with back in the 90s and early 2000s, even with top of the line stuff back then. In regards to shooting with back tension, i've found i also shoot left unless I leave the wrist strap faily loose, and feel like im pulling my elbow directly in line with the arrow behind me - the feel for me is to feel like im trying to pull my hand out of the release strap while having the index finger curled around the trigger.
Torrex is the Matthews level bow. Hoyt offers carbon like a professional.
The RX 7 is pretty awesome, but I can shoot the aluminum bow pretty well too.
Mathews is the best selling bow in the world. Learn something
Hoyt sucks. Facts
Uneducated
Im a 32" draw so i definetly keep a bow when i find the right one. Ive been shooting a bear br33 for the last 4 or so years. I have never owned or shot a hoyt but would love to give on an honest try. They seem to always have a longer draw bow in their catalog every year.
Bryan. That's right. I am a 32 inch draw also, or at least have been over the years. I think I have shrunk a bit and am shooting 31 1/2 this year. That is one of the main reasons I switched to Hoyt back in the late 90s. They made really good long draw bows. I think you will really like the RX 7 Ultra if you can come up with the money. Good luck.
Love my Torrex XT, I’ve got a review of that bow up on my channel as well, and I agree with a lot of your opinions on it!
Thanks for the comment. Much appreciated. Have a great day.

I like how modest you are Bill not a professional id disagree on that when it comes to harvesting big mature white tail with a compound you write the book.
Shane, I appreciate it. I hunt great places. That is the starting point. It is super hard to tag mature bucks where the pressure is high. Thanks for the comment and I hope you have a great season.
Great video demonstrating two relatively similar bows, from an engineering standpoint. Carbon v. Aluminum primarily drives cost. But why are you wearing gloves? Is is to prevent leaving scent on the bow?
No, gloves reduce friction between my hand and the bow reducing bow hand torque during the shot. I wear the same style jersey gloves for all my shooting, in season and out. Thanks for the comment
Never shot a hoyt, but both seem to be nice shooting bows. Would like to get a new one sometime,but my 18 year old bow still shoots pretty good lol really like those arrows too.
Darin, if you try a newer design bow you will want it immediately so don't even test fire one unless you are willing to buy it! I remember when I first shot a parallel limb bow (today's bow standard) after shooting an older style for my entire life. I literally threw my old bow down on the yard where I was shooting and never drew it back again! The new bows are that much nicer to shoot. Not to say you need one every year, but in your case, I think you might really like the new stuff. Good luck and have a great day.
Nice Torrex XT 🤓👌🏼. Loved that color, is that the Buckskin or Bourbon color? Thanks for the video 👍🏼.
Jay, that is buckskin. I really like this bow too. Have a great day.
Since I have a 32 inch DL, is it a very limited number of bows I can shoot and they also tend to be more expensive bows.
I know it is a benefit to have my DL, but at times do I wish I had a 29-30 inch DL instead.
Mine is 32 also. One of the early reasons I switched to Hoyt. No one else made good long draw bows. Now I am down to 31 1/2 as I have gotten order.
May I ask, what is the draw weight you will be pulling for the two bows when hunting?
80 on the RX 7 and 70 on the Torrex XT.
dang, stay strong young man!@@bill-winke
Hi Bill, what FMJ arrow are the greenish colored ones? I just picked up the B3 release… love it!!
They are the T-64. It is Easton's tapered arrow. I am not sure the taper really makes a difference, but I do shoot it pretty well. I think the fact that the tail is smaller in diameter than the tip allows the vanes to clear the rest a bit easier, but I don't see professionals using the arrow, so it can't be that great.
@@bill-winke thanks!! Yes the 6mm to 4 mm I believe. I’ll stay with my 5mm 😀 Goid Luck thus season!! October 1 is around the corner!!!
In addition to weight forward with the tapered design. Ashby study reveals less drag from shaft during penetration, thus allowing for more penetration
@@todlew3238
That is totally pointless with the DL and DW Bill shots and the animals he hunts.
If he had been shooting 30-40 DW and a 26 DL or shorter, then it might help a bit, but the total arrow weight, FOC and choice of broadhead matters extremely much more.
@@bill-winkewhat happened to the Day Six arrows?
Isn’t the xt adjustable draw length ? Or mod specific? It looks tiny compared to you. I like a longer ata for us long armed guys
It is module adjustable within a range. You turn the modules to change the draw length. I like the longer bows too, but it was fun to set this one up to see how it shoots. I could definitely kill deer with this.
Would that Torrex XT be short for a guy that’s 6’ 5” and 30 inch plus draw due to nock pinch?
I have mine set up with an nocking loop so that kind of eliminates nock pinch (to a certain degree). I am no professional archer by a long shot, but I have been shooting compound bows since 1977. I am sure I can kill deer with the Torrex XT at 31 inches draw out to 40 yards. It is definitely forgiving enough for that. Maybe I would have a different opinion if I was trying to win an ASA 3-D event. Not sure. Have a great day.
@@bill-winke the bow looks perfect for eastern whitetail hunting were the shots are way less then 40 yards and honestly it’s all you would need for that situation. Just glad to see more budget friendly bows being promoted now and appreciate the honest feedback. If I see that bow I’ll give it a try I was hoping it wouldn’t be to short for me
How come no more day six arrows?
Nothing wrong with them. They were fine arrows. I just liked the idea of going back to my old Eastons. I am kicking around the idea of producing my own arrow for the market but I only want to do it if I can make something better. Maybe I can. Time will tell.
Both are killers...
Agree. I like them both.
First
Thanks Kurt.
