If you are around Sydney or Brisbane, feel free to drop in and test fire the new bows. The 2012 Hoyt range of compound and recurve bows is a "knock your socks off" line up.

Abbey staff are now reviewing the 2012 Hoyt bows, all powered by the new RKT Cam and a Half system with its improved draw cycle which is pretty impressive. So far, we have reviewed the Hoyt Vector 32, the Carbon Element RKT and the Hoyt Vector Turbo, with an aluminium riser that shoots an actual speed of 340fps! We will continue to update the page today, as we review more bows. Check our comments and pictures at 2012 BOW PREVIEWS and also follow our reviews on Abbey Archery's Face Book page this afternoon as our staff post their expert opinions of the 2012 Hoyt range.

• Hoyt have opened a new factory complex in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. This facility is arguably the most advanced bow manufacturing operation in the world, where Hoyt bows are brought to life from raw materials, to the finished products.

Check out the new Hoyt manufacturing story.
