Don't even go there...... A bow does not win a 3D tourney....the shooter does and the same people would win with whatever bow they rep that particular day. I know I could shoot the same score with any bow. Mathews is the best bow company to shoot for as a Pro because they are taken care of as a staff shooter. I personally know many who shoot the bow for the MONEY and prefer other bows for choice.

I'm not bashing Mathews, I almost bought one myself but when it came down to my final choice after shooting Hoyt for 10 years and comparing the Switchback, Allegiance and Trykon, I picked the Allegiance in a heads up comparison, the Switchback fallen 3rd in the list, FOR ME. There are tons of members here where the Switchback was their pick although most never shot the other 2, not all, but most. If you speficially go into a Mathews dealer and shoot the Switchback, buy the Switchback and take the Switchback home, you'll love it but you'll never know if it was the right choice until you shot the others heads up.

Like I said many times, Mathews makes a great bow, the only problem they have is the arrogance of some of their shooters.

Since your a newbie I won't jump on you but simply let you know, On this forum, we don't have the I SHOOT THE BEST BOW peope...because everyone here knows it doesn't exist.......we all shoot a fantastic bow regardless of choice and stirring the pot will only make your stay here a short one.
