Now you will hear from a guy that has a 2005 switchback and a bowtech tribute.Love them both.Tibute faster,tribute harder to draw back at same pounds draw wieght.Vibration about the same out of both which is none.Noise really cant tell either but maybe a little quiter the trbute.If I had to shoot one all day for comfort I would shoot the switchback.Unbious oppinon because I now have both.
