Introducing the 2023 Hoyt VTM

Summary

Hoyt's latest bow, the VTM, is a result of three years of product development, designed to be the quietest bow ever produced with a 31% reduction in sound compared to the Venom Pro. The bow features updated riser designs, longer bow geometries, and the new Hole Shot V2, which improves sound and vibration while maintaining durability. Hoyt's engineering team focuses on enhancing vibration, sound, draw cycle, and performance annually. The bow is part of a fully integrated shooting system that includes an inline accessory system, a pick rail sight mount that reduces weight and increases adjustability, and an RSL sidebar mount that saves weight. The VTM represents Hoyt's commitment to innovation and creating the best shooting experience for hunters.
