I just sold my GTO. It was the bow that introduced me to Elite, and also a bow I really loved. Already thinking "what the :censored2: did I do". I will be making another purchase soon though.:dance3: Hope I don't live to regret it...

Don't worry about it Ben. I sold my GTO last year and have actually let three 06's go this year:spank: Put the money to good use on a new Judge brother!!!!

Hey We've all done it so far this year I've sold what had been my favorite spot bow a Custom Red Pro 40 Wheely BowTech and My Smoked Chrome Guardian but I'm soon to order a new Elite Judge to replace it and my XLR already replaced the Pro 40. So life is good and I am getting new toys even though I still get a case of the chills every time I think about the fact that I sold the prettiest bow I had ever seen ( the guardian ) I'm sure an anthracite judge would help me forget.

LOL, yeah I have sold an XLR and a AM32 this year online, didn't even flinch on those. I sold my pro3000 to my cousin for his son(miss that one a little, but I get visitation, lol). This one just about makes me want to cry.
Up until summer 08 I never even had more than one bow at a time. Found AT, decided I wanted to learn more about archery and tuning, picked up the darton cheap as a "crash test dummy". Traded my Dren. for the GTO, found this site and lost all control, it truely is a sickness, lol. Right now I am down to my Z, but there will be 2 newcomers before too long.

I had regrets selling my 07 Synergy too, but it cleared the way for the Judge. I'm sure I won't regret it.
Just don't look back ,always forward.

I had 2, now down to one.... I don't think I'll part with this one. It just fits.
I'm setting up a GT500 right now. But it has very large shoes to fill to take a GTO place.

I dont get real attatched to bows, I had the #4 Envy, but ultimately it just didnt fit me as well as my GT500 and XXL really. That bow held its value really well.
They are tools.

Ben, my first bow was a GTO also. I think it's just the first love syndrome..LOL anyway I have gone thru quite a few bows since then (Sept 08). I have owned 5 GTOs because I thought that there was nothing better and there wasn't really............................................ ...............................is the suspense killing you yet? lol
My E500 is probably the best bow that I have owned yet, even though I'm too wimpy to shoot it more than 3 shots at a time without resting LOLOL. Since my shoulder surgery 7 years ago on my left shoulder I can't shoot the poundage that I use to. I'm too lazy to upgrade my guns. A good thing came out of the injury...Elite! I know that they offer leftys but I can't give up the E500 besides I'd have to retrain myself to shoot left handed.
Sorry I got off on a tangent...The GTO is a great bow and once you find the confidence in another you eill forget all about it
