Been told its better than a grand, just the bow, My BIL was looking at one.

all speculation so far, but from what I've read somewhere around $1100

That bow looks awsome. have you seen the new mathews monster yet. it is insane. but shoot the z7 and see if you want any other bow.

I've shot the Z7 and it wasn't for me. I liked the DXT better but I like two cam bows better than single cams.

I dont understand this whole Carbon thing anyway. They say its very light, well how many of us really carry our bow far enough that weight is a issue? I have been taught you need some weight for stability.
If the above 2 statements are true then what is the advantage of the carbon bow? Im asking questions here not making a statement.

I don't like the really lite bows. Yea it's good if you have to carry it a long ways but they are harder to hold steady when you shoot. I'd rather carry the heavier one than shoot a light one.

Hoyt bows tend to be heavier than most due to their riser design and I think that they are doing it for the people that think they need a lighter bow.

I think MSRP for the Carbon Element is $1249
