Gert, I'd say they compare like apples and oranges (Icon and VFT). I would compare maybe a PRO 40 to an Icon .
Apples to Apples the Extreme VFT and new Mathews LX are probably closer. I've heard the LX has a smoother draw and shoots smoother. Bowtech's got the speed and weight advantage .I'm in a delimma over these two and have decided on the LX based based on dealer avaiablitly mostly.I wish I had an oppotunity to shoot both and compare equally though.
