My suggestion would be the ........you thought I was going to tell you. I don' t own either bow. But is sounds to me like maybe you liked the actually feel ( grip, pull, release) of the ultra tec. Both bows have plenty of speed. I personally would choose the bow that was the easiest to shoot for me. The one that would have me chomping at the bit to get home and sling a few arrows. Don' t let 10 fps diifernces in IBO rating make the decision. And for sure, don' t let the pro shop or anyone else for that matter influence you decision. Think hard about the most important qualities to you. Maybe a quiet bow is number one. Maybe you are more interested in a hard wall. Whatever your criteria, you decide.
