Hoyt RX-9 Ultra Compound Bow

Hoyt took their best-selling RX-8 hunting bow and pushed it even further.

Meet the Hoyt RX-9 Ultra—the 2025 carbon flagship designed for hunters who demand speed, efficiency, and comfort in one package. With a completely reworked riser geometry, upgraded limbs and pockets, and the next-generation HBX Gen 4 cam system, the RX-9 Ultra is lighter, faster, and more stable than anything Hoyt has released before.

Maximum Efficiency, Unmatched Speed

The RX-9 Ultra delivers a speed boost of up to 20 FPS over the RX-8 Ultra at every poundage and draw length. Despite this increase, the draw cycle remains smoother than ever, thanks to refinements in the riser, limb pockets, and limbs themselves. The real powerhouse, though, is the HBX Gen 4 cam, which ensures no energy is wasted. Every ounce of draw weight and length is translated into pure, consistent power.

Truly “Dead in the Hand”

Where other carbon bows focus on reducing hand shock, the RX-9 Ultra eliminates it completely. The redesigned riser makes this the most “dead-in-hand” carbon bow Hoyt has ever created. The result is an ultra-comfortable, repeatable shot sequence—perfect for long hunts where consistency matters most.
