So a few days ago I was told by my Hoyt Rep. while shooting the new RX-3 that Hoyt will no longer make the accessory color kits for their bows. Has anyone else heard this also? I have been looking for an Orange kit for my RX-1 and it seems as if they have disappeared from the shelf’s. Really hope Hoyt continues to make these because it is nice to customize your bow.

On a side note I like the RX-3, but after owning an RX-1 turbo I really don’t see a massive improvement. And me personally I like the 32” ata of my RX-1 over the 30” ata of the RX-3. But just my opinion.

Interesting. I find it odd that they would completely resource the manufacturer of their rubber accessories just last year, only to discontinue them this year. I really hope they don't use last year's sales numbers as data to make a decision to cancel the kits because the color kits stopped production for several months which is why you never saw them in stock though we had one dealer where once production resumed coudln't keep them in stock(admittedly they sold online).

On their website they do still list Limb Shox available in colored options but the Color I.D. kits are gone.

Yeah I saw that on their sight and was the reason for my question to my rep. Hopefully he is wrong and they continue to release these.

Yeah but Orange doesn't seem to be available. Have searched everywhere and would pay good money for a set if I could find one. Either way it will suck if they stop making them I know allot of guys that have purchased the kits for their Hoyts or are like me looking for them.

Yeah it seems like so many owners are looking for these kits it would be crazy to stop making them. My local archery shop has some colors but not what I am looking for. It just seems like some manufactures in this industry for some reason can not seem to project sales very well and always run out of stock to early whether that is with bow companies, treestand companies etc...

For a newbie that is getting ready to buy a new RX3 what do these accessory kits consist of. Was wanting a blackout and was considering orange strings and cables with perhaps other orange accessories? Thanks for any help.
