![]() ![]() I will take another nice buck this season with my new bear bow, but I will allways have a place in my heart for the reflex bows.This bow also features a cable guard with a roller and slide. Not sure, but I know I shot my first ever nice buck with my reflex and that will never change. Maybe the hawk series is now what has evolved from the reflex line. The big stores like cabellas and gander had such poor customer service that hoyt did not want their name drug through the mud and just pulled the line. Reflex was created for bow stores to be able to sell a hoyt bow, without the hoyt name. It was explained to me from the hoyt dealer here, that hoyt discontinued the reflex line this season. Hoyt has taken that bow from the reflex line and it is now the hoyt power hawk. My son just bought a new closeout reflex growler from a guy on AT classifieds and paid 300 bucks for it. Nice though.incidentally it is for sale for what I paid for it, $200.00 set up rest, sight, peep. I also have bought a reflex excursion for my daughter, though later found it didn't work for her, to much bow. My first nice bow as I launched myself into this new fangled archery, was an 05 reflex buckskin. From what I understand the Highlander model in 2006 was actually a phased out Hoyt Ultra Sport. ![]() I would have loved to get a Hoyt, but I couldn't afford the $$$$ tag at the time, so I found the 'minor league AAA ball' model of Reflex and it is everything of a pro model Hoyt. I just need something that feels good, feels comfortable in my hand, and is very quiet. I'm a bowhunter who isn't really interested in the latest, greatest, high tech, whizz bang, 800 fps bow. It was the best bang for the buck from any bow that I found back then. The serial number is on the riser between the upper limbs. Call Hoyt and give them the bows serial number and they can tell you the year. Sporting a pro competition look and feel, this bow offers features found on higher level competition bows, such as tiller and limb adjustment, at an entry level price. The PSE Theoryâ„¢ is the perfect bow for the novice competitive archer. I'll be looking into the Hoyt 'Hawk' series (specifically the Turbo Hawk) when it's time for me to upgrade because I was told that even though Hoyt isn't making 'Reflex' anymore, that they just absorbed the Reflex bows back into their 'Hunting lineup.' I have a 2006 Reflex Highlander and love it. ![]() I was told that Hoyt stopped making Reflex because the HOYT sales dropped when the REFLEX sales started growing- don't know how much truth their is to that, though. I'm still shooting it and still no issues with it. ![]() Dropped it once, accidently smacked the limb off something when I shot it once, and I made a dumb mistake and dry-fired it once. I shot the Excursion last year and am using the Charger to hunt this year- I love it! I was pretty rough on the Excursion, not gonna lie. I own two of them- the 2006 Reflex Excursion and the 2008 Reflex Charger. ![]()
