Default New Bow opinions

So guys im trying to decide on what new bow i want to get. Its between either the Hoyt Maxxis 35 or the Alphaburner. I shot both bows and wow. The dealer doesnt have any maxxis bows in stock just the alphaburner but its no big deal to wait. Whats your guys opinions on either of these bows.

I did not get a chance to shoot these but I did shoot the 350 destroyer and it performs as described: speed but smooth and quiet. One thing that I was disappointed with was some of the cheap looking plastic articles on it. I am not knocking Hoyt, but this was one thing that I did not like and now Bowtech seems to be following suite. Seems to me that if I am going to spend 900 on a bow, they should use some high quality material and everything. They did go all out on the limbs. I may end up with one but I really wanted them to be longer axle to axle. I'd love to have those limbs and cams on my 101s. Good luck.

Both good bows - you could save some money though if you could put your hands on a 07 Hoyt Vectrix, best bow ever made!

You'd be doing yourself a favor by shooting the BowTech Destroyer just to see what you think of it.

If you have your heart set on a Hoyt I'd find a place to shoot the Alphamax 35. IMHO it's a better bow than the Maxxis or the Alphaburner.

Ditto on the Alphamax. My shop has some pretty nice deals going on the Alphmaxs he still has in stock.
