    all i do is go to photobucket, upload the pics there(they have directions on how to do it, so i wont write them here), copy whichever link that pops up on the picture you want, and then paste it in a quick reply here. cant wait to see those pics.

    I really like the looks of the Element... have always thought Hoyt's carbon bows have looked extremely sharp.

    Yea im a big fan of it to. I absolutely love it. Such a smooth shot and it feels great in my hand. Extreemely easy to draw steady and shoot. Very quite bow. I chronoed it and it shot 285 which is plenty fast for me. Not exactly sure what my arrow weight is tho.. easton 340 axis n-fused with the hit insert 2in blazers and 100 grain head. Cut at 28 inches. 74lb draw 28.5 dl

    I shot one and unfortunately am not the type of person that can sell off things to buy one or I would hav eno tools left. On the other hand I would have one sweet rig though. HMMMM!!! Nope just can't do it. It is tempting.

    Well, luckily i didnt have to sell anything of mine off. I had to save a bunch tho. The deal was i could buy a new bow as long as i bought the wife one to. I couldnt argue with that so she ended up with the vicxen the same day
