Default 2009 BOWTECHS ??

What is the smoothest drawing of the 2009's ? I like the Captain, maybe the sentinal but like to hear opinions.

EDIT :

Im interested in smooth, no hand shock, accurate.. not worried about speed....

Thanks

Only test firing it once, that was my impression the smoothesteasier pulling of the two between it's rival AM32.

I thought the Swat was smoother then the Captain or Sentinel.

I've shot the Admiral, Captain, Sentinel, Iceman, Air Raid and a 31" Carnivore. The smoothest draw was the Carnivore if that is strictly what you are looking for. However there is much more to consider when buying a new bow.

Shoot them all for yourself and make an educated desision. They have been improved for 2009 no doubt.

No Doubt, the Ross Carnivore

Never shot any of the others, but have a swat and absolutely love it. Very smooth draw and no hump to get over in the middle of the draw cycle. No hand shock. Much better than my 2007 Equalizer. Shoot em all and decide for yourself, everybody has different oppinions and preferences.
