Welcome to the site, I went with the DXT after useing my first bow for the last 15 years, I love the DXT but there are alot of bows out there these days. It all determines in what you want,(speed, accuracy, forgiveness ect.........) I would shoot as many as you can, and what fits you the best I just became a member at the first of this year and the guys on here are some of the best people you can meet. Good luck with the New Bow hunt and post some pics of the one you pick.
