I'm liking the Parker, but you can't beat the Bear either. I don't know to much about the Martin. The Parker is a very impressive bow! Thinking of getting my son one of them. What you need to do is go and shoot all 3 bows and which ever Bow feels best to you is the one you should get. It really doesn't matter what we think because your the one that has to shoot it! Good luck and happy Bow Shopping!!!
