I don't know if DD is that worried about the price difference on these bows. But after Quick's comments,
I would want to shoot the Iron Mace (Barnsdale limbs, fast, decent brace height, etc.)

I like my Tribute. Very adjustable, speed and smooth mods, fast, accurate, comfortable to shoot.
I guess my only complaint, if I had to choose one, would be bow noise (not vibration). It just seems a little
louder than I was expecting. Of course I have not completed my quest to make it quieter.

I heard a rumor that for next year they might lighten up the Tributes like they did with the Allegiance for 07.
The weight issue was one I was not worried about b/c (1) the Tribute is already average in weight,
(2) I treestand hunt only, and (3) I shot a very heavy bow before, and still like some heft to my bow.
