Mathew's is based about an hour away from here so Bowtech is the dark side around these parts. to be honest, i thought the XT drew a little easier, but the Allegiance was smoother through the shot. don't get me wrong, both are good bows..Trykon's nice too...but Allegiance..I dunno, I'm thinking having to wait a week is gonna be a while. One thing i will say with the XT is that Mathew's has slimmed the grip down a little, for a while i was considering just pulling the grip off my LX and shooting bare riser because i kept torquing my bow hand.

Funny thing is, the pro shop i go to used to be Mathew's/Hoyt and the owner told me when i got my LX that he wouldn't need to carry BT because Mathew's/Hoyt was by far better..eating his words now..ha..
