Specifications: Invicta, the latest and greatest target compound bow from Hoyt Archery! After many years of success with the Prevail series, Hoyt have levelled up with the all new Invicta compound bow for 2020. Amateur and Pro archers around the world are beyond excited to get this new machine in their hands; it isn't just a brand flagship, it's a new industry flagship. What makes the Invicta so special? If you're a gearhead, we'll break down the individual specs and features further down this page, for now here are the improvements Hoyt have made for the Invicta in a nutshell;

• Longer riser design - Far more stable and balanced
• Stealthshot string suppressor - Kills noise and vibration over 50% more effectively
• Dual rest mounting holes - Lock down your arrow rest tight and square
• New limb and limb pocket design - More rigid than previous installments
• New DCX Cam option - The Invicta now caters to a wider range of archer preference
• Adjustable cable guard bar - Tune clearance and torque to precision
• Invicta Modular Grip - By far our favourite feature - fine tune your draw length and grip feel

Hoyt have essentially taken features from their most succesful bow ever, the Prevail, and turned the Invicta into an amped up system purely designed to hit the X. If we were to bet which bow would take out the most podium spots over the next few years, this would be it. What's the difference between models? With two axle to axle lengths of 37 and 40 inches, plus two cam options in the SVX and DCX, there are basically 4 different versions of the Invicta to choose from (6 if you include the two let off options you can get the DCX cam in). The main factors to consider are speed vs comfort/balance; the geometry of the shorter 37" bow allows it to fire faster, while the taller 40" bows will feel more balanced and stable at full draw. The SVX cam is a powerhouse and will shoot faster, but it sacrifices a bit of comfort in doing so. The new DCX cam offers a more steady feel on draw and valley in comparison. Using this information as a guideline, here is a basic look at each model of bow's abilities;

• Invicta 37 SVX - The fastest configuration possible - lower comfort and higher holding weight.
• Invicta 37 DCX (65%) - Smoother drawing, yet retains a high level of speed and high holding weight.
• Invicta 37 DCX (75%) - Same smooth draw with a more generous holding weight, lower speed.
• Invicta 40 SVX - Slower than the 37 but more balanced and stable from the extra length.
• Invicta 40 DCX (65%) - Smoother drawing, yet retains a high level of speed and high holding weight.
• Invicta 40 DCX (75%) - The most comfortable configuration possible - lower speed and lower holding weight.

Which Invicta is right for me? If you're scratching your head at these differences don't sweat it! There are a few key things you can check to make sure you get the best Invicta setup. Follow these steps for our best recommendation;

1. Draw Length - Check your draw length first as some models only cater to certain length ranges. If you are under 25.5 Inch draw length you can only shoot the 37. If you are above 30 Inch draw length you can only shoot the 40.
2. Speed vs Balance - If your draw length is between 25.5 and 30 inches, you can pick either the faster 37" or more balanced 40". 3D archers who have to guess distance before shooting usually prefer more speed for a flatter arrow trajectory, that way if you guess the distance wrong you won't miss by as much. Field archers such as IFAA and FITA competitors that shoot known distances sometimes up to 80 yards usually prefer the larger axle to axle bow for as much stability as possible.
3. Speed vs Comfort - After selecting your bow length you just need to choose which cam works best for you. The SVX cam provides the most speed due to it's aggressive angle and low let off, the DCX 65% is in the middle with a smoother draw but the same low let off to retain speed, and finally the DCX 75% gives you the most comfortable draw and holding weight but ends up being the slowest system. Picking between these is mostly personal preference and is the hardest decision for some, but you can use the same rules as step 2 for making the judgement call.
