Apologies up front, you may want to settle in because this add is gonna be a LOT....
First off, how much do I have tied up in this full archery outfit?
I find that hobbies are more enjoyable if you don't keep track of what you spend on them, but a fairly educated guess would be something like $5,000-$7,000. The Hoyt setup alone was North of $2,500 and the carbon arrows come in right around $35 EACH with weight matched points and whatnot, so ya...not a cheap hobby.
History: I started with archery back in 2005 and was extremely active in the sport for about a decade until life changes dragged me away. I always intended to get back to it but I have just recently had a full shoulder joint replacement so that's that. But the good news is, my loss is your gain! I shot top 50 in the nation in Olympic target archery with this outfit (top 3 California one year) and was also very successful on Field Archery courses and at Indoor meets. My point is, with this gear you will never have to worry about the user getting better than the equipment, the shooter will always be the weak link. If you put in the work you can shoot 10 rings at 100 yards consistently, and just how consistently is entirely up to your work ethic and your skills.
So, what is included here? Well, in a word EVERYTHING you need and a lot more actually.
You could start archery today with this outfit and never make another purchase.
A definitely NOT all inclusive list:
Bow #1:
2005 Hoyt Ultratec XT 3000 split-limb compound bow 60# draw weight (letoff is 65/75%)
Draw weight is adjustable
Sure-Loc Supreme scope with Sure-Loc Black Eagle lens
Front and side stabilizers in matching blue with Doinker shock absorbers and counter weights
Tec Rest silver arrow rest with feather tongue rest
Upgraded drawstring with Ball Peep sights and vibration dampeners
This is a 300FPS+ bow

This bow was CUSTOM MADE for me by Scott Bomar
It has solid limbs and is also a 60# draw
Front and side stabilizers in silver
Toxonics Nail Driver site with lens
Two tongue feather arrow rest
Upgraded drawstring with Ball Peep sights and vibration dampeners
This is also a 300FPS+ bow
Other Stuff:
Double bow case, lockable
15 Easton Superlite ACC Series DP carbon shaft arrows, custom fletched, balanced and weight matched
About a dozen Easton Fatboy 400 WIDE carbon shafts (these are the trick for indoor short range to catch edges!)
A half dozen or so Easton Epic 400 arrows
ALSO, another ~2 dozen arrows (various types as noted above) that need repairs to nocks/fletches/points.
Morell's Outdoor Range Target (awesome target that NEVER has a blow through...I've used it in the garage)
Two kinds of arrow pullers
Clip on bow prop
Chrony chronograph, Model F1 for measuring your arrow flight and bow/arrow combination fine tuning
Bohning Archery Vista padded field quiver, super comfortable for long days on field ranges
Pro Series fletching jig for fletching and re-fletching your arrows (saves you money and makes a better arrow)
T-square, string wrapping jig (for setting your peep sights), arrow pullers, extra stabilizer legs...
4 different kinds of mechanical releases (Choc Addiction, SCAT, etc, etc) Try them all, find what works for you!
Two parts boxes full of, well everything you can think off. Spare parts, fasteners for on the field repairs, extra shock absorbers, string dampeners, alternate types of bow retainers, arrow identification options, ball peep site size options, cleaners/lubes, Arrow nocks/fletches/points, extra stabilizer weights, some paper targets, and on and on and on.
Other than the noted arrows that are in the repair queue (there are ALWAYS arrows in the repair queue, tinkering is part of the fun) and a very small amount of finish scuffing on the bottom limbs where the bow prop clips on, there is exactly NOTHING wrong with any of this equipment. It is competition ready today, once you make the appropriate adjustments for yourself.
