Hoyt Eclipse Women's Compound Bow — 2025

Hoyt Eclipse Women's Compound Bow — Purpose-Built for Female Bowhunters

The Hoyt Eclipse Women's Compound Bow is a premium, purpose-built hunting bow designed specifically for female archers with shorter draw lengths. It delivers exceptional performance, lightweight agility, and dead-quiet operation without compromising power or stability — making it one of the best women's compound bows on the market for Colorado bowhunting.

At just 3.7 lbs and a compact 29" axle-to-axle, the Eclipse provides the forgiveness and steadiness of a longer riser while staying ultra-light for all-day carry in the field. Whether you're hunting elk in the Flat Tops Wilderness, mule deer on the Western Slope, or shooting 3D courses to stay sharp, the Eclipse is built to perform at every draw length in its range.

Advanced vibration-dampening technology — including Limb Shox, StealthShot, and Shock Pods — makes it whisper-quiet on the shot, ideal for close-range bowhunting where noise can cost you the animal.
