    I like watching this show on the History Channel called Pawn Stars. Not sure how many watch it on here, but a guy brought in his 2010 Hoyt Carbon Matrix decked out to sell. He came in asking for $2000 for the package, but the shop ended up buying it fully loaded for $1250. Anybody else catch it?

    Sometimes I think "Why would you bring that in there and get half of what you would at an auction or something???" If I brough something in there and one of their "experts" told me it was worth 3,000 and he offered 1,000 or less I would not sell it to him!! Id take it to an auction!

    This show is just a rigged reality show like antiques road show turned into.:rolleyes:

    carbon tech does. http://www.carbontecharrows.com/products/hunting-bows/
    and hca has in the past.

    the man's statement was this is the only carbon bow ever made. wich is false.and there are a ton of alum risers under 3.8 lbs.

    I am not a hoyt hater,i have owned one in the past. it's just that the tv show bought a used bow without a warranty for just that (tv show)

    Yeah I had to laugh a little when he said that. I also got a kick out of watching them shoot it. Come to think about it, that's probably how my buddies felt watching me shoot a compound for the first time. :o
