HOYT BOWS TO TRY FOR 2010

I will be testing 4 models for the coming year and I am really looking forward to giving them all a go over. The models I will be trying are...
CONTENDER XT2000 with spiral Cam
CONTENDER XT3000 with spiral Cam
MAXXIS 35
CARBON MATRIX

The Maxxis and Carbon Matrix are two that I think will be very interesting, the axle to axle length is a lot shorter than I have used before but the bows overall physical weight will allow me to use a keel system but still keep the total weight under what I am currently shooting. The keel will give a shorter axle bow the feel as if it was a longer axle bow.

Will post photo's and performances of each bow when they arrive.

#1 Comm Games Squad Camp

The very first of the training camps leading up to the Comm Games was held over the 11th-13th of December. This camp "Induction Camp" was held at the AIS in Canberra and it was a great opportunity for everyone who had made the squad to come together and see exactly what is in store and expected for us but also what services will be available for us archers to take advantage of.
I am very much looking forward to working with the sports psych, nutritionist and the strength and conditioning people.

The ball is rolling

Commonwealth Games Squad

Received my invitation this week to be apart of the Commonwealth Games training squad. This is the start of the selection process for the final 3 spots available for the Comm Games. All who were invited will now attend eight 3 day camps and battle it out for the Comm Games spots.
Of course I will post results from these camps and how everything is going with my shooting.
Looking forward to getting things started.
