Have any of you made the switch from a GT 500 to an Z28? Just wondering. I am considering picking up a Z. My GT's are awesome but am ready to toy with something different and love the 09 dls cams on my GT's. I don't need to sell my GT's to make this work but wonder if any of you have been impressed enough with the Z to sell your other bows be it Elite or not. Thanks.

I loved my GT and wish I still had one. The Z is a great bow, so smooth it is ridiculous and they flat out shoot. You really should give one a try.

I have both because of the same problem. I can't part with the GT at all, but shoot the Z more. Love both, but the Z draws soooooo easy and is truly a pleasure to shoot. Keep the GTs and pick up a Z.

word of advice ..... never sell an awesome shooting/feeling bow just to try another model


if you shop the mkt, you can find a used Z28 for 375~425 .....


shoot both, do a side x side comparison and sell the one you like least

No for sure try the Z.... then the GT's will become back-ups

I have no intention of selling both of my GT's but possibly one if the Z shot that well for me. Thanks for the input guys. I may have one located.

I have a feeling when you get a Z it will need strings before the GT's will. Their hard to put down, I've owned 3 and really thinking of getting another.

I may be in the minority on this one, but the GT is a better bow for me. I just can't get used to the shorter axle to axle of the Z. I shot it well enough for hunting, but not nearly the accuracy past 30 that I get from the longer bows. But the Z is butter smooth and holds very nicely!

and that is why neither GT will go away until after I have spent time shooting the Z, thanks for all the input on this.

Not sure if your stuck on the z but I think the Answer is as smooth, and personaly I shoot it alittle better than I did the GT.

Not stuck at all but the dealer in IL that I visit twice a year didn't have an Answer to shoot on my last visit just like my dealer here in So Cal.
I thought I had a Z locked up last night, actually two to choose from but they both sold. So I will keep my eyes open.

the Z just feels good to me and is perfect for my shooting style ..... hunting and backyard pleasure shooting
