Default What's the best bow?

I'm looking for a new bow this year and times running out before the hunting season. Need a little help in deciding. Please vote, and leave a reason why you chose the bow that you did.



i'm guessing that its mostly going to be all about the mathews.

Man, the best bow for me might not be the best bow for you....If you plan on getting a new one, you need to go put all those bows in your hands and shoot as many as you possibly can. Once you narrow it down to 2-3 that feel good in your hand then you can start deciding between all the little factors that come into play.....First things first, if the bow is uncomfortable to you, it doesn't matter if everyone here told you it was the best or not....Good luck with your new bow and let us know what you wind up getting...

I didn't choose the mathews I'm just expecting that most people will choose the mathews or the Bowtech bows. They seem to be the most popular.

If this is a strictly hunting bow then my vote would be between the DXT and the Black Ice.

However, I would pick the General over either one of those. Which, BTW, is the best bow.
