Also I would say that the dealer who lent you a Switchback to take over to a competitors shop went way beyond good salesmanship and gave you great service and hopefully you will support him in return.
No doubt, that is the kind of folks that I like to do business with. If it were me and both bows were pretty close, I would still buy from that guy even if I liked the other bow equally well or maybe a little better. If there was a big difference you got to go with the obvious choice but in most cases with the upper end bows it's more about shooter preference than anything else because they are all quality bows.
