    Congrats! I'm buying a new bow but I trying to decide between the Hoyt Carbon Spyder 34 and the Pro Edge Elite. But I didn't get to shoot the Faktor. How do you like yours so far? And did you get to shoot the Spyder and Pro? Just trying to get as many opinions as I can.

    I again shot a Faktor and a CS Spyder yesterday, I already have a Faktor 34 on order. JMO but their is virtually little difference other than the Spyder was slightly lighter (.3 lbs.).....both dead in the hand after the shot and the same smoothness. Both bows were set up the same with same stabilizer, sight, and rest. IMO, I see no benefit in paying a few hundered dollars more for the CS Spyder being they employ the same cam system. But you have to decide for yourself. Everyone has an opinion :)

    I agree as well. The Carbon Spyder was nice but very little difference from the Faktor to justify spending the extra five hundred dollars. I used the money saved to by the sights, rest and arrows I wanted.
