RE: Tribute or Equalizer ?
Ampa,
Congrats onyour Tribute!! I was originally going to go with that one also but after researching and reading so many glowing reviews of the Equalizer opted for that one. At my draw length (26") the Equalizer is about 15fps gaster than the Tribute. I went with the standard color ( Mossy Oak, Obsession ) and for now have my Impact cosmic on it but have a Cobra/Sureloc sidewinder 5 pin on order. I actually tried all the top new bows before going to Bowtech again and actually liked how the Switchback XT shot very much. What steered me away from it was the DL specific cams and in discussing it with shops who carry Mathews did not get a warm feeling about the need to order cams and parts through the ditributor. I got the feeling they didn't stock much and always had to order from the states which would take forever. I feel better having a local dist like North Sylva who stock modules and accessories. I ordered my bow on Saturday and it was in 5 days later, much better than what I read about here. Enjoy your Tribute, I'm off to the range to sight mine in this afternoon since I am doing the International Bowhunter Training course this weekend at the Wolf's Den.
