Pops, I'm going to be buying a Dorado soon. Would you say the limbs draw heavier than they are marked for? A lot of folks said the Gamemaster limbs drew about 5 lbs. heavier than they were supposed to. Is the Dorado the same? Thanks.

Today I found out Hoyt measures draw length from burger hole or deepest of grip back to the nock/string.....26 1/4" plus 1 3/4" this makes 28". it was 45#. BUT if you
measure 28" from front of shelf back to string/nock it pulled 48# TOOOOO much for me. My Hoyt rep says this is new standard for draw length measure. Today they offered to order 40# limbs for me and take the 45#'s back.....thank the Lord!

Great news. Got any tips on silencing the Dorado? Felt? String silencers? Any other tips.

I copied this to the Stick and String forum. A couple really good comments are made that might be useful outside of the classifieds.

When you're done with this posting, let me know and I'll close it for you.
