The 2013 Hoyt Compound Bow For Female Shooters

The sector of the bow hunting market that is growing faster than any other is the female part of the market. The days of allocating the compound bows originally designed for the younger archers to the female shooters is long gone.

In place of the compound bows that were known as suitable for the youth and ladies are a growing number of compound bows designed specifically for the female hunter.

Among these bows was the Hoyt Vicxen compound bow which was fitted with all of the features that you would expect on the top of the line men’s bows but on a smaller, lighter scale. For the 2013 season the designated bow for the female market is the Hoyt Charger Vicxen.

The Charger Vicxen is essentially the same bow as the Charger but with a finish that is highlighted with pink accents. This insistence on adding pink to a bow to ram home the fact that it has been designed for the female shooters is really getting old and bow manufacturers need to get over it.

The vital statistics of the bow include:

Axle-to-Axle Length: 31 inches
Brace Height: 6-3/4 inches
Weight: 3.8 pounds
IBO Speed: 209 fps

The bow is every bit as accurate and lethal as the Charger and shoots very nicely. The speeds that it is capable of are very good for a 40 pound draw.

The smooth draw cycle and soft back wall will suit the majority of female shooters to a tee. The other aspect in which the bow will meet with approval is the price at under $600.
