Anytime a company just makes one of something, you can expect greatness. Hoyt has just one budget bow in there line up. See why they didn't feel the need to make another.
Nice! I got this bow last year and arrowed a bull with it this year at 54 yards. Complete pass through and my arrow even stuck into the deadfall. Great bow! 👍🏽💯👊🏽🔥🏹🥩
I've been kicking around the idea of going archery hunting. There are so many options out there for hunters to choose from. After watching your review of the Torrex I decided that was the direction I wanted to go. I was not disappointed when I shot the demo at the shop. I picked it up with the Fuse package so I could start shooting right away. It's worth the money.
Hey Brandon, I just bought a Torrex today. Picking it up tomorrow. I was considering a couple of options, but your video gave me some peace of mind that I made a good choice. Very nice review.
Been wanting to get back into bow hunting. Need to buy a new bow your channel has been very helpful. Shot a matthews and bowtech at my local bow shop last week. Still trying to make a decision but really liked the bowtech. Keep up the great quality videos.
It’s been 10 years since I shot a bow. Everything was stolen bow 10 guns golf cart stand tractor battery anything that wasn’t nailed down was goneI looked at phase 4 , terrain, legend. The cost unfortunately is a factor So I can get Torrex release and arrow points and blades along with target and stand for bare bow phase 4. But Torrey just felt good to me 24:45
@@BackyardBows I don't think I will go wrong with the torrex, and it will serve me well, sure the phase 4 is nice but package compared 800$ to 2000 I would love to have the stacatta XC but my CZ shadow 2 in urban grey is awsome and far out preforms my abilities
I love this bow I bought one last week. My budget was like 1500 and I shot the Hoyt torrex, matthews phase 4, prime inline and bowtech sr350. I am not a very experienced archer so there might of been a few things more experienced archers might have picked up on but for me it really starts with draw cycle if it’s not comfortable to draw back I’m not interested. I narrowed it down between the hoyt and matthews but kept going back to the torrex and just couldn’t justify paying almost double for a bow that didn’t seem more comfortable to shoot over the torrex. I felt like if I went with the phase 4 it was for the piece of mind of buying a top bow.
The Torrex is a nice bow cor sure. I shot a Torrex XT shot about 2 years. I really liked it. I did just upgrade to a RX5 for a price that was to good to pass up. It's definitely nicer than the Torrex, but not as much as you'd think though. Good review
Kinda of crazy the price difference, considering performance is so similar, I’m currently shooting a rx7 and can’t justify the 1000 difference between the two
Yeah I got the Rx5 as a hold over for the same price as I got the Torrex for. I love the Rx5 and it's nicer in every way. But I would never pay $1700 for it new.
In the market for my first bow thanks to events in my life leading to the abilities to get into bow hunting. After work going to window shop my local shop and meet some people to know who I'll be dealing with after taxes! 😂
I'm torn. I shot a VTM31 today and it felt amazing, but my Torrex just shoots so well and consistent. The VTM would be a great upgrade with a slight speed boost, but is it really going to shoot so much better that it justifies being twice the price?
You suggested “rollers” and “metal limb pockets”… can you do a quick video on how to and where to get, and maybe price of that process? Trying to buy my first bow as well as for my kids to shoot in the evenings as a family. Thanks
So rolling cable gaurds and aluminum limb pockets usually are standard on flagship (more expensive) bows, most budget bows will have a composite limb pocket and a sliding rod cable gaurd, but it varies from bow to bow
I remember when that bow was 650 dollars. 900 is too much. Just save up 200 extra dollars and get a flagship bow. But if 800 or 900 hundred is all you have I think this bow is a good bow. Nice review
I said the same thing lol. The bear whitetail legend pro is a better option for the price imo. But if you want a hoyt i rather get this than a rx7 and save some money.
I haven't looked lately but when I bought my Torrex this summer, it was $800 for the ready to hunt package that included a Fuse sight, quiver stabilizer and a QAD drop away rest. I believe it was $650 for a bare bow. I think considering for $800 you can get a bow that shoots this good and is ready to go out in the woods with it's a great value. Of course not all the accessories are the highest quality they're not bad. Get a good stabilizer and then you're ready to go till you can learn what type of stuff you really like.
I know it sucks for you but you should try the quest centec and quest thrive.. the centec will hold its own to this bow with a upgraded string stop. And the quest thrive will hold its own to any elite minus set technology. Prime string stops suck and a lot of people walk away or talk about how loud they are .the quest thrive only downfall is the module system. You can adjust limb stops or twist cables to get whatever feel you want and that bow will hit ibo speeds.
Great content, informative and to the point. Purchased the torrex 6 months ago. Whisker biscuit is wearing out. What drop away would you recommend for it? Please and thank you
The torrex xt is like 900 bucks now i remember when the torrex was like 650 when it first came out. I think its a great bow but I think its a little bit overpriced for “budget bow”, but its definitely a nice shooter.
I will not call budget bow 1000$ bow on other side for me outperform ventum and rx5 with 150g arrow 70lbs it shoots faster than both ventum or rx 5 or mathews for moch less I own Torrex xt LD one I paid 680 when came out now 1000 wery accurate bow pleasure to shoot a bit stiff draw but after days you don’t notice but you know where the speed comes from!
I was in the market for a new bow, I tested a PSE Omen and the Hoyt torrex XT. The Hoyt was GARBAGE compared to the Omen for right around the same price, the Omen from PSE was way smoother, held better and just all around a better bow.
@@BackyardBows That is true, but for a budget Bow hoyt sure does charge a lot. The hoyt xt was$1,000 the PSE Omen $1200 not really a diffrence there. Thank you for your reply 👍
Man that is a hard comparison as these bows have two completely different feels both great first time bows and I think a very nice first option for a beginner, Roman your going to get more for your money but I would still shoot both

Just in time for season good luck
Loving you channel so far! Just got onto it 2 days ago.. good stuff bro! 👌👍
More to come appreciate the feedback
This is an awesome review
Bought this bow just over a year ago. Tried other bows. This one felt the best. Really enjoy shooting it.
Just recommended to someone else tonight 👌

Bowtech this year and last has killed it
Dont count out Elite, I almost did and I'm glad I shot them. I was torn between the PSE, BT, and Elite. Took the Elite home.
Thank you for the video, excellent
NEW SUBSCRIBER
GREAT REVIEW
feel better about my purchase tomorrow
Will be watching your videos

I love that $800 is budget now, WTF?
I wonder when it will stop, that’s why I love all these companies surfacing making quality bows we have options
That's called inflation. 😂 Thank your representatives in Washington for printing so much new money to fuel their never ending spending spree.
This bow is 1000 now at my local shop😂

Too bad you didn't have a chance to shoot an elite.

what's the flagship bow?
@@kristophstjames4143 Hoyt’s rx7 and ventum pro
Sold
How about a review on the Quest Centec. They can be picked up cheap and look like top notch quality.
Looking into it now
I know it sucks for you but you should try the quest centec and quest thrive.. the centec will hold its own to this bow with a upgraded string stop. And the quest thrive will hold its own to any elite minus set technology. Prime string stops suck and a lot of people walk away or talk about how loud they are .the quest thrive only downfall is the module system. You can adjust limb stops or twist cables to get whatever feel you want and that bow will hit ibo speeds.
I’m definitely looking into it we will review any bow no discrimination here
Great content, informative and to the point. Purchased the torrex 6 months ago. Whisker biscuit is wearing out. What drop away would you recommend for it? Please and thank you
For hunting I love a rip cord, Aae prophecy is my current fav
@@BackyardBows thanks, I'll look into them
@@BackyardBows is the prophecy cable or limb driven? Website unclear
@@stormchildkennelsjasontrac6749 both cable
Would you prefer this over a used hoyt defiant carbon 2017 model priced at $350
The torrex xt is like 900 bucks now i remember when the torrex was like 650 when it first came out. I think its a great bow but I think its a little bit overpriced for “budget bow”, but its definitely a nice shooter.
Prices keep going up and up, I always say the more companies making quality bows better it is for us the hunters

@@piterex7 call it Hoyts least expensive bow lol I would have to agree with u, it’s just where we categorized it
Scheels has the Torrex@$599, Torrex hunt ready kit@$799, Torrex XT@799.
You can pay slightly more if you go for a fancy color.
This becomes a much harder sell after watching reviews of the APA black mamba air
This or the Prime Ronan for first time bow?
just out of curiosity what is your arrow setup as in spine insert weight Point weight and length
100 g point, 29.5 inch 300 spine fmj w the Easton inserts that come with them, 503g all together
@@BackyardBows k.. thank you
What release do you use?
Spot hog wise guy w boa strap
do the sanlida dragon 10, its pretty good for $500
What is the target you use inside the shop??
Big shot iron man
@@BackyardBows Thanks man. Just got back into bow hunting and got a Hoyt Torrex yesterday. Love it so far.
@@saltysol574 I think it’s a great choice I shot really well with it from the jump
No limb silencer on bottom limb! Or am I missing something.
I forgot to put back on 😂 it comes with two
