I had a Z-28 a couple of years ago and sold it to get a Destroyer. It was definately a shooter. I miss Elite's customer service and will be selling my Destroyer soon. I hope to find an Answer or Pulse to shoot and make my decisions from there. Glad to see in some previous posts that the Bastrop shop will be a dealer since thats not too bad of a drive for me!

I shot Mathews up until I shot an Elite Synergy Extreme and bought it 3 years ago. The next year I picked up a used GTO in excellent condition to have a second Elite in the stable. I like Elite so well that I shot the Answer back in the spring to try it out but left the shop without ordering one. It ate on me all summer long and I just got back this weekend from ordering a new 2013 Elite Answer from Jerry at Rednek Booda Outdoors. The new Cerekote finish on the cams, limb pockets, and rods is awsome. Mine will be here in 4 to 6 weeks and I hope it is in time to run a Slick Trick thru a deer or 2 before the season is over.
Elite is not out to win the speed race. They just make the best built, smoothest drawing/shooting bow with decent speed (real IBO numbers). And the best warranty in the business.
Go shoot one and I bet you fall in love.

It's starting to look like the word is out here in Texas. It's surprising to me that more dealers don't carry them. I asked a nearby shop owner and she said people just weren't buying them. I think it speaks to the marketing dollars spent by the big guys versus elite. I knew what I wanted in a bow. Decent speed, smoothness, solid back wall and a great warranty. I got it all with the Answer. I bought it around a month and a half ago and couldn't be happier.
Edit: I just realized I already posted on this thread. Well, at least I'm consistent.

Most bow shops carry a good inventory of at least 3 of the big 4 bow companies ( Mathews, Bowtech,Hoyt, and PSE). When it comes to carrying some of the newer/smaller bow companies like Elite, Strothers, Obsession, etc, They may only have one or 2 of their bows on the racks and have to order one for a customer. When someone comes in looking to buy a new bow the shop pushes the big 4 because that's where they have their money tied up in the bigger inventory. Elite is advertizing on the hunting shows now and sponsers a couple so maybe people will start asking shops to carry them. Shooting an Elite is what sells them, they are that good.Last edited by Hornytoad; 11-07-2012, 09:05 AM.
