SO awhile ago I had a 06 Protec, with XT4000 limbs, and one of the nice guys I know (TC) talked me out of it. So I decided a month or so ago to build up a couple new old Hoyts.. LOL
My first one is a 06 Camo Protec I bought, it had XT3000 limbs, bought 2 sets of XT 4000's from Barnsdale archery, and Gary found me a set of #2 Cam and Half's, and I found some 65% mods. My other friend made me some new threads for it and I have a serious shooter. I threw a 12" stab on it, an old golden key Superstar rest and the past few days have been tuning. Got the cams tuned, (easy stuff there- I like the top cam to hit just a fraction before the bottom) and today walk back tuned to 40 yards. What a great bow. Solid back wall, easy draw cycle, smooth and the bow just sits perfect with the 11 Oz disc weight on the stab.
I have another 06 Protec at NW Hydro Dipping right now, its going to be a carbon matrix, with red in the clear coat giving it a tint. Of course the limb pockets and various other parts are being cerakoted that same red. This build will have silver #2 GTX cams to experiment on how they perform with this build. I also have a red/black string for it, and of course red and black weights for the side stab, thinking I'll go with a total black front stab and weight. LOL
I just finished building my son an 06 Protec (blue fade to black riser) with XT3000 limbs and #1 cam and halfs. Fits his draw length of 27" well. Its a 50# draw weight.
I am also building a couple FrankenHoyts, 2 Vantage Pro risers, one will be for me with GTX cams and the other for my son with GTX cams, both will have XT 3000 limbs, a 45 1/4 ATA. I have everything for those except the #1 GTX cams (on order) for the sons bow. I have 2 others (vantages) sitting awaiting production and 2 more Protecs in the shop waiting for some XT 4000 limbs.
Did I mention I just found a green fusion 06 Protec that is the same as the one I gave away awhile back to TC....
Is there a 12 step program for this addiction?
