eclipse xt
Guys just got an eclipse xt brand new still in the box is it a good bow? and is it pretty much the same as a vortex the only difference I see is kinetic energy?

Re: eclipse xt
Congrats! The èclipse is an awesome bow that will last a lifetime. It's the same speed as the Vortex..
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.
Re: eclipse xt
Same bow, it just an all faux carbon graphite coated Vortex. It's a good solid bow!

Re: eclipse xt
Congratulations on the new bow I always likes the finish on those stocks very sharp looking, so much nicer looking than black in my opinion , you have to see it in person to appreciate the color detail.

Re: eclipse xt
One of the Best looking bows made!! Had two or three of those and sold them each time after testing and
trying different string and arrow combo's. Should of kept one for the wall I think. Very nice purchase. Have fun and post some pics of shooting or hunting with it.

Re: eclipse xt
What was the best string a fff , did you find it was a nice bow to shoot and true, I think it is the same as a vortex (I had one and wish I didn't sell it) but the vortex was 97 kinetic and the eclipse is 87 cant figure that out everything seems to be the same specs any thoughts
Re: eclipse xt
There is typo on one of them. Kinetic Energy is calculated by speed & weight. I don't have the formula in front of me, but the two bows produce the same speed so something is not right with the KE.cosmo01 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2018 1:05 pmWhat was the best string a fff , did you find it was a nice bow to shoot and true, I think it is the same as a vortex (I had one and wish I didn't sell it) but the vortex was 97 kinetic and the eclipse is 87 cant figure that out everything seems to be the same specs any thoughts

Re: eclipse xt
the formula for finding kinetic energy is arrow speed times arrow speed times total arrow wt. divided by 450 240 example 330x330x375 divided by 450240 =90.
