Let me clearify. Nothing against Bear, great bows...simply great however,

I shot a new Hoyt every year since 96 but in 06 I wanted to change things up. I shot the top 3 Mathews Switchback, and XT, Bowtech Allegiance and Tribute and the Hoyt Trykon. I paid full price for the Allegiance through a local shop. It was the best bow for me. Now, that Allegiance was not head and shoulder above the rest, fantastic bow, all very smooth and top notch. I wanted the Switchback to impress me to purchase, it as nice but didn't impress me as much as the Trykon and Allegiance.

Love my Allegiance. This past spring when Matt / PA came and hunted turkeys with me I had a chance to shoot his Guardian and no bow EVER in my life compared to shooting that Guardian. NOTHING, not even my Allegiance. I've had the pleasure of shooting the General and it's right there with the Guardian.

I've since shot the Drenalin and the Vextrics and I stand by my statement. Nothing shoots like the Guardian and General and I will measure all future bows I shoot to those two. They are incredible.

I know it was a bold statement to make, cool aid or no coolaid but I stand by it because I'm entitled to my (11 years competitive shooting, 26 years of bowhunting, 41 years of life) opinion. And I have never and may never say it about any 2 bows again.
