I just purchased a Mathews Switchback. Always was a Hoyt guy before. I shot the Hoyt Vtech and the Bowtech Allegiance with the Switchback. The Switchback is the smoothest shooting bow I have ever shot. I liked the Allegiance also but it was A 100 bucks more than the Switchback. They all are good bows, try them all out and pick the one you like the most. Good Luck!
