I bought me and my son 2 Hoyt Faktor 30 bows a little over a year ago. I have not shot mine but a handful of times but my son has shot his a good bit. IMO the Hoyt Faktor 30 is about as good as it gets in a Top Shelf bow. What sold me on the bow was how well it balanced in my hand and just solid as a rock. Everything about the Upper End Hoyts screams high quality.
