well im a Bowtech shooter but have played with my buddy's Switchback some ......also shot an Illusion at a Bass Pro shop......between the two, not a lot of price difference.....but like the feel of the Illusion much better ....also the switchback weighs a ton to me.....without accessories........i know around here the Illusion is making some noise....getting noticed......but ultimately it's ur preference.....what feels good to you.....bow are quality high end bows
