Finally shot the Vista 31 & 33

I have to say, I'm impressed. The Vista 31 didn't have as great of a string angle and had a bit more of a dump at the end. It was smooth drawing though. The 33 is more of the lane for me. This bow is up there with the Ventum Pro 33 for smoothest draw this year. The balance was great and no kick upon the shot. For post shot vibration, I can't really give this a fair judgement. Both bows had metal L-shaped rods screwed into the stabilizer mount. They use the L to hang the bows on the wall. There was some vibration post shot, but nothing more than the Envision.

I've almost made a custom buy today, however it's mid-May. I think I'm gonna wait for the 2023 bow to be released to buy their new offering. I think I can wait another 6 months for a new bow, given they release on 15 Nov as they did last year.

I shot the 31, loved it, didn't compare it to a 33 or any other new this year bows. Having shot plenty of new bows the last few years I just didn't bother. I'd be content with most of them, but not love them. However, after shooting that 31, deciding with my draw length that I wanted a slightly longer ata, I've got a 33 on the way. If next year's are significantly better, I'll crack that nut next year to get one. If not, I have little doubt I'll be unhappy with the vista 33 that's on its way now.

I got a 2022 vista 35 like a month ago haven't set it up yet but i had a ritual 35 and everything about the athens is better in my opinion. Just the wider limb pocket makes it better. Fit and and finish better, cables stops vs limb and a rotating mod. Also i got soild black and its textured. I dont have to run grip tape.

I've sold A LOT of these bows.... Especially the Vista 33!!!! To say 2022 has been a busy year would be an understatement!!!!

There was a period where I couldn't keep anything in inventory. Folks were buying my inventory before it arrived or the bows wouldn't be on the shelf for more than a week....

I finally have a few Vistas in stock and a few more ordered.... Right now my biggest question is:

Do I keep the Predator Spring Green Vista 33 for myself or do I put it on the shelf???

I have the Vista 31. I never considered the 33 or 35 because I was looking for a pure hunting bow. I have a TRX 34 for 3D. The Vista 31 is a sweet little bow. Was shooting it 80 yards last night and it holds better than I thought it would.
