- Nock On TV's John Dudley talks about his big switch from representing Hoyt to shooting PSE bows, as he also introduces the new PSE Evo NTN 33 which includes several features that he asked PSE to incorporate into an Evo bow. Dudley also talks at length about what he wants to accomplish in and for the archery industry going into the future.

I'm a hoyt man but dudley has made it easier for me to cope with him switching. He seems like a great guy
I'm stuck between a Hoyt Nitrux and a PSE evo NtN 33 for my first bow I'm buying in 2 weeks. Could you offer me some insight as to why you choose Hoyt and not PSE and which bow you'd recommend I lean towards?
I'm in Texas and there's a couple of Archery shops and bigger retail stores like Dick's, Field and Stream and Academy that offer both brands.
@@Hades-Sired you won't go wrong with either . Both make great bows.
I'm from Iowa, living in San Diego, and a big Hoyt man myself. I was at Performance in San Diego when Dudley presented Rogan his bow. It was super cool. I was pretty bummed and shocked when he went PSE. I honestly think that Hoyt, Mathews and PSE are brands you can't go wrong with. I'll always shoot one of the other 2 if ever leaving Hoyt.
@@Hades-Sired go to fort Grard in weatherford or call them they have a ton of options and I would recommend elite
I don’t care who John shoots for. I’m just impressed that PSE is letting him have control of his own wants and needs. That’s telling about the man Pete Shepley is and the vision he has for both his company and archery.
It’s also more telling about John Dudley. He really truly cares about the future of archery and where it’s heading. He has a following and he’s the #1 reason I got confident in doing my own bow work at home.
I thinks it’s really cool he can wear whatever he wants and won’t be “penalized” for mentioning another bow company or working on them in his videos. Sounds like it’s a partnership where he’s in control of his own creative freedoms.
As someone who isn't particularly brand loyal, nor one who triesmirror a hunting celebrity's rig, nor someone who trades up every season, I have to admire Dudley and what he's trying to do for the community. As stated earlier, as someone who advocates a very hands on approach and tries to stay fairly neutral, despite certain...obligations; he's a great resource for DIY knowledge.
John Is a good spoke person Pete Shepley made a good decision I love the new bow that john helped with . Already have one carbon stealth bow and I love It. I love the new wider arrow rest on these bows.....
Dudley is such a professional and wonderful human. He has a positive impact on everything he touches. I love that he said he doesn’t buy into the hysteria of releasing a new bow every year!
PJ and the Duds are the best! I’ve watched hundreds of videos by the both of you and thank you for making the archery world better!
I agree with you. One can learn a lot from them.
Every product John touches he improves ! Releases , sights, bows , rests , hes made me who I am today in hunting and target archery !
I remember vividly watching hours and hours of nockon tv, and the live facebook bow builds on the couch. Dudley is part of the sole reason i got into archery. The message conveyed was always one of a unified community rather than brand bashing, which was very appealing to me. Thanks dud for all you do for our community!!!!
Much respect to dud. Long time follower and always will be. It doesn’t matter what bow company your with. Find what works for you and go shoot.
John is such a upstanding guy. Ive spoke with him multiple times and he's always very humble to answer questions.
I'm waiting on my first bow in the mail. I'm 38yr old and have already started working through his youtube vids. I had not heard of John Dudley but am beginning to realize how much of a legend he is in the sport. It's amazing he puts in so much time and effort to pass on his years of knowledge and it's free on youtube. Funny thing is I'd already ordered a PSE before he switched today! I'm feeling pretty good about my choice now lol
Dont feel bad. I've been shooting over 20 years and only heard of him since I caught a few vids on here. Lol.
Right on man! I'm there with you. Super new beginner and I've also got a PSE. He's just a great dude that's puts out so much for any level archer.
This just proves how real JD is! PSE definitely made a power move landing Dud. Can’t wait for the new Rogan bow build vid.
My wife & I follow all Duds uploads & are so very greatful for his incredible knowledge & sharing of this knowledge.
Just bought us our first compounds after 30years of longbow ( started with a bear Hunter 40 years ago ) ..
But %100 committed to PSE on this man's influence & information.. 🤙
I had every intention of buying a Matthews bow. But fell in love with the PSE evoke.
The world needs more John Dudleys! 💗
LOVE John Dudley ,got alot of information from watching his videos, thank you.love pse have evolve 31.
I'm a Mathews guy. I love John's videos he's basically taught me to be able to maintenance my own bow.
Dudley has been great for the sport and seems like a stand up guy.
Looks like a great bow, and sounds like a fantastic partnership for years to come. Pse was my first bow the Axe 6. I still have it today, and still hunt with it, but would love to up grade.
Thank you MrDudley for the trix, i learn much thing from archery from you;-) Your videos are a very big help for beginer archers.
I'm not a big PSE fan, I certainly have an appreciation for Dudley, I am just glad the guy got to have some input. He seems happy, it'll be better for the industry as a whole, and it may actually start to light a fire under Hoyt. Congrats Dud and PSE, PJ thanks for the interview.
Sold HOYT out! Trader!
@@joshuawilliams194 don't HATE
joshua williams that might sting more, if you used the correct spelling/word “traitor” 😂
@@russellpickett2689 Great job on catching that. Mr.English Teacher! Ill bring ya an apple. A HOYT Apple!
joshua williams insulting someone for being literate, isn’t much of an insult= 0/2
U wanted to make your own bow and Hoyt won't do it ! Nock on 🤘
Really??? Hoty makes for Bone Collectors and Hanes. They wouldn’t do it for John?
@@andrewpierce1588 I think Hoyt just slapped their names on their flagship bows. Nothing else
Dudley's plan/ idea sounds amazing and inspirational and I think PSE is an awesome company for teaming up to do this with him. This is going to be truly great for the whole archery community!
Very good interview by PJ with a legend! And Mr. Dudley has done so much for archery.
When John mentioned the military folks joining the bow community I got extremely happy. After being deployed, dealing with what we've seen and done, having something like archery really helped me. It's something that slows my mind down, be more in the moment, and most importantly gives me more patience for things that are out of my control. Seeing him start this initiative is absolutely wonderful and I wish him the best.
Amen to this brother. Very excited to see the direction John will take this initiative. So glad he's doing this. Very much needed.
Great interview. Nockon has really empowered me to improve my setup and also my shooting.
Next week. Dudley switches from Traeger to the George Foreman grills after sharing a burger with George and shadow boxing
LMAO! dont think its like that but thats freakin hilarious
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hahaha. I personally believer that Matthews and Hoyt stay at the forefront of Archery due to their name and they’re efforts in recruiting the best ambassadors. I believe, prime, bowtech, PSE and several others have more progressive technology and mostly better price points than The two bigs
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😃😁
Hilarious.
Very happy for you John Dudley! Nock on everybody!!
Started archery 4 years ago and my first bow was a PSE 👍🏻
I've Owned, 2 PSE's ( a DNA Smooth pull and, the Brute NXT ) and for, the AVERAGE, Bow Hunter / informal Target shooter these Mid Priced Bows, are, VERY hard, to beat !
I basically self taught myself through John D’ vids, how to tune my bow, string it, set center shot, change servings, cut and fletch arrows. Etc etc... Dude has a great learning channel but I dumped Hoyt 3 years ago for Bowtech! Good for you brutha! You do you!
First bow is a bowtech carbon icon. I see no reason to switch to anything else unless my bow breaks for some freak reason
Looking forward to where your partnership will take PSE, much respect to you sir, you've been a true asset to the archery community. My first real bow was a PSE back in the 80s. Merica!
always glad to see videos with John Dudley, long time never seen his videos and hope to run into him up north this year if he comes to Alberta again, good luck with your new endeavour.congrats and nock on.
Hats off to you Duds!
I’ve looked up to you and more so now then ever. God Bless the USA!!!!!
And all other countries to hell!!
Simo 🤣
Love the kickstands, I use a Magnus Bow Pod but had to totally rebuild it to hold up and stay together. Great for no blind ground hunting. Also a great move, two burger holes. Removing the high site holes, if your using decapitators the clearance is needed.
I had very good customer care a few years ago. I friend of mine had his handle break and I contacted the dealer over here in the UK but had a totally negative response. I contacted PSE directly and within 10 days they had sent out a new handle with a cap, chest guard and other bits from the States, it was nice to see someone cares about their customers and sticks by them. Well done PSE
Heck yeah my fist bow is a 2019 PSE Madness Unleashed B3.
Nothing else stood out to me more than a PSE when I was doing research for my first bow and there unbelievable cam system.
Smooth as butta!
Im so pumped to be on the PSE team with the Dudly.
I’ve been hunting archery for 30+ years and my first naw was a pse and my current bow is the unleashed. Love the bow for the money
Excellent interview; heard the last Nock On podcast, Dudley is awesome and deserves the best of lucks due how much supports the archer/bowhunting comunity!
Took the PSE class in Tuscon, AZ and had the pleasure of meeting Pete Shepley. He is the only sole proprietor from what I know, in bow manufacturing. Llike John Dudley said Pete has a great story. I love Pse more after meeting him. Take the course they offer down there it's a great time.
Heck yea! Fantastic news! Dudley definitely deserves it!! Cant wait to get my hands on that bow! Congratulations
My Nock On Silver Back release has been a game changer for me.Thank you Carter Enterprises and Nock On!
Coolest move I’ve seen in the game in along time! 😃 Last year I said to my fiancé, “I wish John Dudley w Nock On would team up w Pse and make a bow”! And look?👀 I love the new Nock On edition bows!!! My main goal in 2020 is to save for the carbon air stealth bow!!!!
What a great move John!! That's awesome and I'm very happy for you!! Can't wait to see what's in store for the future of NOCK ON NATION!! I'll always back you up 110%!! NOCK ON!! You guys rock!!
Talk you can tell if they're sincere I believed every word the man saidmr. Dudley is just going to take the best company and make it better
That shirt! Time to move up from a smedium!
👍🏻
hahaha. that is wealth talking.
Hell yea, that Traeger is putting some man teets on old Dudley 😂😂👍
I have a carbon air 2017. Love the cams and adjustability Like the idea not dropping a brand new model in six months. Can wait to see all your input.
I'm not gonna shoot anything just because someone else is shooting it. I shoot hoyt because I like the feel and shooting ability for me.
Well said mate. Just reading some of the comments here it seems that folks will go where the big name guy goes. I've owned two Hoyts now; the Pro Comp Elite and now the Pro Force and the only reason I bought either of them was because I liked the look and they were greatly reduced. The Pro Comp I got for about a third of the original price and Pro Force was just under half price. I would never buy a product just because a high profile salesman says I should buy it. I leave that to the saps of this world.
@@capricornmagic63 I want a Hoyt Nitrux but people online are saying it's not worth the price at all and all that. However, it looks really nice and has awesome colour schemes. However, I like everything on the evo NtN 33 but it's a bit uglier than the Nitrux. Idk what to do when I go shopping in 2 weeks.
@@Hades-Sired I would go by how you feel. Make your own mistakes, not someone elses. I'm not an expert by any means, i've been shooting since 2017, I bought the Pro Comp Elite purely for the looks and it's what I learned to shoot with. I didn't ask questions about performance etc as I know we all experience in different ways. Initially I asked questions re: arrow components, scope diopters etc. Once I got the basics, the other stuff I figure out myself. If you like the Nitrux, buy it. It's all in the eye of the beholder.
Who doesn't like being listened to. What a champion and beautiful human.
Great to see John's input and experience going into the PSE designs. Can't have too much common sense and practical experience added to bow designs. This will bring up the design quality of all bows.
Not gonna lie...I actually just learned, and subsequently researched a lot about PSE. Didn't know much about them before but the XPEDITE is a legit bow. Made in the US, I myself am a vet with a business degree and appreciate the shift of focus to US production again. A lot of jobs were lost overseas, but also, to automation. The handcrafting that is required in this art is one that is proliferated and bridged for guys like me through guys like John, creates just a few more jobs and cash flow to the right companies, but with a big cultural impact... Thanks John!
As a pretty conservative person I'm not a fan of the of Nock On brand but I absolutely love all that Dudley has to offer along with his spirit of professionalism. I wish all the best in this new opportunity for both parties.
New to archery. Just got my first bow, it’s a used PSE Nova for my birthday. I feel lucky to have it because I’m realizing I get to start with a great reputable brand
All the top companies Elite, Mathews, Prime, Hoyt and PSE etc produce great bows. But PSE have now got probably the top archery ambassador in the world with JD.
I will definitely be looking at a John Dudley PSE later this year as my next bow.
PSE’s sales are about to expand alot! Hoyt makes great bows, but it doesn’t stop some people from thinking they are for bow snobs. You won’t get that with PSE.
Boxing 101 😂😂😂😂 you do realize PSE crushes Mathews in total sales right?
VXR? You mean the Halon 32 part Deux? 🙄
@@russellpickett2689 I wouldn't be so sure on that. Boxing 101 is an idiot but Mathews is extremely popular
Doug King popular yes. What are their exports to Europe and Asia like? On the world stage PSE is the dominant force.
I am die hard Martin archery but John is the man no matter who he represents his videos are great and I do have a PSE been a fan for 25 years
John Dudley, what a stand up guy.
I love my Hoyt but Johns the man and he deserves this and he left with class!!
Excellent move mr Dudley. I m going to buy a Pse bow because of you and your part in this great company. Thank you for your support of our great veterans, it means a lot. God bless you and your family.
I love that you guys have done this and had the conversations. This industry is cool. It has a much more transparent feel to it, and it's because of leaders like Lancaster using their platform in effective ways.
I still have my pse mach 9 set up with a sure loc challenger and till this day in still shooting 300 with it on a 5 spot and every time I watch a John Dudley video I still learn more on shooting
Outstanding,I worked for PSE ARCHERY back in the early 80s when they moved to Tucson from Ill. I still have my PSE laser magnum presidential made for me by Terry Ragsdale! You mentioned a lot of names that brought back great memories? I loved it when Pete would walk into the pro shop range and say, give this new how a try and give me your honest opinon! How cool is that!!! Best of Luck to you and the entire PSE STAFF!
This makes me like John Dudley more! What a gentleman!
So happy I watched video JD is my hero and I was crushed when he left Hoyt .I bleed red apples .But my first compound was a PSE .Reckon ill be getting me couple .Thanks for all great info you put out
The new PSE bows are really cool. And John takes em hunting. Nice. And he can hunt. I’m still shooting my Outback and love it, didn’t know Dudley was with Matthews before.
PSE has scooped up Dudley and the Pigman...WOW!
Mathews scooped up my favorite
Chris Bee
Pigman shoots obsession, not pse
I’m so pumped!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Excited to see next years bows....putting money he has his own signature bow / 'Dudley' edition.
Steve Z he literally designed the evo nation (nock on nation) so I’d say that is his signature bow
I haven’t shot any of PSE’ flagship models but they offer the best package bow for the money. The drive with the high end package is a great deal. You get a drop away, micro adjustment sight, decent quiver, and it’s fairly quiet. Most of all the cams are unmatched. The speed you get with the amount of holding weight, ease of draw, and 7in brace height can’t be beat at $650. The closest you can get IMO is a bowtech carbon icon but it’s another $100
As Dudley is talking about the evolve cam im thinking ol Rex is back in the corner smiling
I'm a huge bowtech fan, especially with the last couple of releases. But having a knowledgeable guy like Dudley putting out tuning content, etc specific to my bow is pretty compelling. Maybe a PSE is in my future....
so it worked...
Interesting. My first compound bow was also a PSE with a 55% let off which I bought 2nd hand back in 1992. The bows of yesteryears and todays high technology bows has a big difference. Today, I am 76 yrs old and still shooting but at draw weight below 60 lbs. Thanks for the knowledge gain in watching your videos.
Great video, PSE was the first bow I ever bought as well. As well I have shot Hoyt and Mathews. Unfortunately I’m no longer able to shoot a bow and now shoot a crossbow.
Love my PSE Ramped. Was worried I made the wrong move a few weeks back buying pse instead of Hoyt but now I know I made the right decision
The greatest guy in archery
Hoping for a military discount from PSE like Bowtech and Elite!
Paul G bowtech or elite would have to give a 50% discount to get my money I would pick elite over bowtech though every bowtech I have owned have had lots of problems the elites are good bows but the new ones just look cheap to me
I have no problem with his switch. Better deal for him . I would do the same . All the bows are so great today you shoot what feels good in your hand .
John has an audience and influence in the archery community. This is certainly something that can be beneficial to PSE. How long before we see a Joe Rogan custom PSE build? That’s a much bigger audience, if it happens.
More $$$ + more product control on a named line that’ll further increase his own Knock On branding = a match anyone would be crazy not to grab. Good for him!
Super excited for this! Such a standup guy. I'm glad he and PSE has made this partnership. Still shoot my 2014 PSE Prophesy and like it, but this might be the reason I pick up my next PSE/Dudley collaboration bow.
I don’t get why people hate on PSE. Hoyt and Mathews are very nice bows. But PSE is right there. My first bow I ever bought was a PSE stinger X for 400 bucks. Probably the best beginner bow ever built.
Went to the shop to buy a Hoyt, shot the PSE Embark and changed my mind easily. They're putting out a great product with John's input.
Can't wait for the lineup of target bows.
I can relate my first bow was a PSE when I was 14. I think it's an awesome transition. PSE in the past has slipped away from Mass majority of people because of their super high-performance speed bows hard drawing bows. It was really turning into All or Nothing with PSE. But I think after seeing these new bows I think they're on the right track and they're going to be making waves coming up in the next couple years. If I could sell my Elite Echelon 37 right now I would buy this bow and still shoot 300 at tournament I'm sure of it.
Kinda crazy with Hoyt for 14 years and they put his name on the limbs. At PSE for 2 Weeks and he's designed his own bow.
trackhoe hunter are you sure you’re not talking about cam Hanes
@@treymsutton I thought they had a Nock on version too. I knew about Cam's "keep hammering" limbs. I may be wrong. Could also be thinking of the Michael waddell brotherhood edition years ago. They may not even have done that for him! Seems like I thought it had the green nock on hand sign on some.
trackhoe hunter I’m pretty sure he would build bows for his buddies and others but he did put a “nock on custom” sticker on the limb
trackhoe hunter I don’t recall Hoyt ever manufacturing any “Nock On” bows or products. For what Dudley did for the brand and industry as a whole, you would think Hoyt would have.
John is a meca now. Not crazy
John wish you the best, love watching your videos for help.........Hes smart enough to help with bow design I cant wait for his Ideas to help build even better bows , I have carbon bow love It shoots great light and can carry It for days 85% let off ....Its got to feel good helping PSE with design and to see a bow built with some of your Ideas way to go.
If Dudley makes a 31" EVO it will be my next bow.
the owner of pse is a great guy and makes a great product. Johns making all the right moves. Ahem Sitka😍 only owned Mathews since 2001 and WILL be looking hard at PSE now.
My first bow is a pse.didn’t have a clue about archery but somehow knew pse was the correct choice
I like PSE but love Bowtech the realm changed my hunting for the better gonna shoot the realm till I cant anymore...might get my son a PSE and use it as a backup since he dont hunt nearly as much as I do
I just bought a realm as a month ago. Smoothest bow I’ve ever shot.
Agree. I have a Realm X. Its amazing
Simple they gave him a lot of money NoCK ON... nothing wrong with that “IS ABOUT THE MONEY BABY”
without a doubt! its all about the money but john wouldnt partner up with a bow that he didnt like i do believe..pse has been around sice the beginning and still is so that says sumthing..you take 90% of hoyt shooters and mathews shooters no matter what they say they shoot those bows simply because everyone else does...
termite122 I shoot mathews because I feel it’s a superior bow and they don’t charge $1700 for a flagship bow like Hoyt but they shoot just as good if not better I’m sure bowtech elite odyssey prime etc are good bows I’ve only shot a few of them but I’ve had multiple pse and shot the new ones I don’t like them but with Dudley coming in there and helping with design and helping the archery world I hope they will excel much more within the next couple years and maybe I’ll make the switch to pse but as of right now I prefer a Mathews to any other brand
Gonna have to disagree. I’m sure the money can be similar. If it was about the money Mathews or Hoyt would have him. They’re way larger of companies.
If you listen to the Pete Shepley Icon series podcast you’ll hear how intrigued John is by Pete.
It’s clear that that meeting is the start of all of this. Plus with the power he gets to help build this company.
Anthony Sottung I see you point.In my personal opinion Mathews didn’t need Dudley that bad. PSE needed somebody as popular as Dudley. Their bows are ok but nothing spectacular and they didn’t have any big name Archers as spokesmen. I imagine what kind of deal Dudley got. Like I previously sated Dudley is great but some people think he walk in water.
Anthony Sottung hate to burst that bubble. Neither Hoyt or Mathews is a larger company.
Take a shot every time John says honestly
My arms got tired.
I remember being a 12 yr old boy stand in my logo Pro Shop picking out my first PSE Nova. My first bow was also a PSE!
30 years ago my first bow was a PSE. Still shooting them today.
Huge move man, seems bold. I want to try a few different bows lately. The new mathews looks sick. Maybe a pse is in order to try too! People will trip out about his choice at first but with time it will go well for sure. in a couple years time this will be old news and everyone will be moving more towards PSE than they were before he switched.
Truly a genuine guy! Congrats, Dudley!
Awesome John! Hope all is well!
Good interview PJ and congrats John and PSE.
I have always wanted to purchase a new bow, IV been shooting 3 or 4 year old bows with little problems because that is what I can afford. Nevertheless I believe by this time next year I will be owning a brand new PSE hopefully a Dudley build.
I like hoyt bows shot them for years but they have pretty much priced themselves out of the working mans market in my opinion.
James Underdal and who is the “working man”?
Me lol but I’m def still shooting a rx3 but won’t be changing for a good long while just because how long I had to save up to get the rx3 lol
I'm one of the working man types. Im shooting a diamond, and maybe switching to a Bear this spring. The boys over at THP shoot Bear, and so did my stepdad. I'm prolly gonna get The Bear Approach. Its my price range. Seems like everyone makes good Bows these days. I'd love a $2,000 Bow but that ain't happening anytime soon. This upcoming season will by my 3rd season hunting, and shooting BTW.
James Underdal facts!!
I agree with you there. I have been hunting for a long while and was Prostaff and have hunted in various locations with some good bow hunting experience. My advice to any new archer or even if you are experienced - DO NOT buy into the marketing schemes these guys like Dudley are paid good money to promote the product and these guys just chase the money around. I do believe Dudley is a passionate and very knowledgeable hunter and well respected but at the end of the day they go where they are offered the best deal/cash. What you need to do especially if you are not rich - you need to go to your local shop and shoot all bows and allow common sense to prevail. I shot the new Hoyt, Matthews and Bowtech Realm Sr6 . Hands down and by a decent margin I went with the bowtech. The feel,let-off, accuracy and speed couldnt be ignored and its quiet. The hoyt vibrated and Matthews did nothing for me. The price of the hoyt compared to Bowtech was like apple and oranges and for that price with it being a vibrating machine, no thanks. Take your time with it spend the day at the bow shop and dont fall into these guys who get paid big bucks to market. Joe Rogan and all those guys get these bows for free - they will promote whoever spoils them.
John Dudley is the archer Superman. He is also a PR person’s nightmare. Oh BTW PSE bows just got a whole lot more expensive. Hoyt just went,, phew, good, let’s go. Oh also adding that I will work for free when I got a ginormous bank account also.
If you're Hoyt, how do you not give Dudley the requests he wanted? Sounded like he just wanted to have input on products and designs?
I think, To Hoyt he was just a face for influence over his vast community of followers. A sales gimmick. Hoyt has teams of engineers who’ve spent decades of research and development and could care less about his menial developmental ideas. Plus the cost of modifications to a production process must be weighed against the benefit of the changes and financial return. Nothing he added to that pse increased their revenue other than his name. Give pse a few years and I’ll bet they don’t implement his ideas anymore. Just a bargaining tactic to get him to the lineup.
Sounded to me like he had an issue with hoyts Chinese carbon risers
Respectfully disagree. He brings more than a name, he will bring increased revenue from his endorsement. People who were reluctant to try or go back to PSE will now do so because he wouldn’t put his stamp on something that’s trash. He doesn’t strike me as a guy who is following the biggest paycheck, he strikes me as genuine and just wanted some input on design.
@@dmartinez1993 I agree with you here. I've been following Dudley for the better part of 7 years now and he is the reason that I fell into a Hoyt for a change. To my disappointment I couldn't shoot a Hoyt near as well as literally any other bow I had owned previously. Nothing against hoyt. My first bow was the PSE Thunderbolt and since then I've jumped from top end bow company to the next for the last 15 years and 2 years ago realized that PSE was just underrated in my opinion, so I bought an evolve that I still shoot to this day. Who knows what kind of monetary deal Dudley got in his switch to PSE, but it'll be nice to see this company get back to the top dog because quite frankly I think they need to be noticed as such. If Pete is true to his word and continues to get advice from arguably the best shooter in the world, PSE will be untouchable. I think Hoyt is a little foolish for not wanting to take his advice.
@@megadthes8427 Great points! John Dudley doesn't ' design ' bows. I've yet to see a riser designed from start to finish by Dudley. Adding an extra hole for an accessory doesn't qualify as designing.
Seems almost like something may be going on within Hoyt. John and Chris Bee both left. Could be coincidence.
Where did you hear about Chris??
Chris made a video for TH-cam after he switched to Matthews, then did a segment at ATA with Lancaster talking about it.
@@bmills231 Ahh I haven't been on his channel in a minute and haven't watched anything ATA related yet, thanks!
Steve Rinella took over and put everyone else on the backburner
equivalent of bringing Tiger Woods to Nike Golf - congrats
Very professional and chooses his words wisely.. .
