Bowhunting World: (my favorite) has good bow tests and sometimes equipment test like broadheads. I like technical. Variety of articles overall.

Petersens BowhuntingGood variety of articles. Bow reports are now standardized and comparable. This magazine is another favorite.

Bow & Arrow Hunting: Oriented toward western half os U.S. Magazine has bow reports, but you have to do some estimatingbecasue the draw length or weight may vary. IMO there is a reoccurring emphasis on longer ATA bowswith 7'' or more brace heights and to a lesser extent fixed heads.

Bowhunt America: I like the bow reports and they seem to have a couple in every issue. The reports are consistent with draw weight and length and use a variety of arrow weights. This magazine seems to only report the good about products. However, I'd buy it just for the bow reports.

Bowhunter: Stories and more stories. Emphasis is on writing. You will read all about the hunt, they try to make you feel like you are there; equipment details are put in as an afterthought in a sidebar at the end of each story.This is my least favorite, but many people prefer it.

You are OCD! I'm ADD, I just whip through the pages, read a couple of sentences and maybe go back later and read the whole story.
I like Trad Hunter Mag and NA Whitetail. NAW focuses more on the deer than the equipment.

I get both Eastmans Bowhunting Journal and Eastmans Hunting Journal because I live and hunt mostly out west. I also like Bowhunting World but only buy it when there something I'm interested in.
