Please, hardly.

The best bow? It doesn't exist. What's right for one, isn't right for another and the post 2 above mine, biased. There are many top bows, the best is pushing it. For example, there are many bows that blow the DXT, Switchback and Outback out of the water in the hands of others, no best bow, just opinionated responses.

Even in my current line up of Bowtech and Diamonds, I can't tell you which is best, just which ones I like more than others. One of the best bows I've ever owned would be 10 years old now.

There are as many "best" bows out there as there are hunters. I shoot the Hoyt Katera and will argue with anyone that it is the "best" bow. However, I don't really believe that the Katera is "best" for everyone. The best thing you can do is shoot as many bows as you can, see which bow feels best to you and go with it. Good luck, BTW what do they hunt in France?

mathews dxt and drenaline are good bows i know people that have them and i have shot them and was very impressed. both are quiet and fast.i have shot the katera and was impressed very smooth and quiet.i have shot the pse x force and did not like it. i thought it very unsmooth. my uncle and some people i shoot in competition with have had problems with the limbs of thier bowtech bows cracking and breaking. im not shure if its just them or if other people have had the same problem. this is just my opinion but maybe it will help

bonjour frenchy, bienvenue sur le meilleur forum pour la chasse a l'arc.
Si tu commence maintenant a aprendre la chasse a l'arc tu va trouver boucoup içi, même pour les pro il y a encore a aprendre.....

Si tu veux acheter une arc j'ai des bonnes adresses en belgique. Moi j'en ai deux bowtech, le tomkat et le 82nd airborne, tout les deux des arcs tres bien pour la chasse.

Je t'ai fait un email, j'ai des questions a poser aussi....
