Nothing wrong with the Q2XL and that would be at the top of my list for Mathews BUT I am a Hoyt man and you need to give a serious look at the Hoyt Ultratec if you want forgiving and just an alaround joy to shoot.I love mine and let a friend shoot it that shoots a Rival Pro and the first 2 shots he took with it at 25 yards smacked arrows,not bad for just picking up someone elses bow.Seriously though,he is an excellent shot and is quite good and could do that with most bows that fit him as mine does,but he said he loves the way it shoots.Give it a look.
