I am all about getting all the Speed I can and seeing that both are faster than the Allegiance I would consider both fast bows. The 82 is supposedly10 fps faster than the 101, but it has a BH which is 1 1/8" taller. Most will agree a higher BH is usually more forgiving all else being equal A to A, etc. I talked to a friend 4 to 6 weeks ago and he had both. I asked him which he liked best and he said the 82. I talked to him last week and he decided he was going with the 101. I have them both, but honestly have not shot them enough to say one is more forgiving than the other. I am sure a lot of that will boil down to the Archer, his form, draw length, etc. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will have a stronger opinion on the 2. Right now I think they are both Nice bows. Lets face it most guys will choose a bow for #'s, and not necessarily what is best for them. We all like to do a little chest pounding from time to time

Last season I ended up hunting most of the Fall with my Guardian which was shooting approx. 280 fps. That is one sweet Bow!
