I think the Allegiance is a great bow too... other than that I think the 82nd would give you the most overall performance... most speed... more stable than the 101 IMO... still very shock free... and did I say fast... but a nice used allegiance off of ebay would be a goodd route too, by the way, I've noticed that alot of speed freaks have benn selling their allegiances because they are going to the 82nd and 101st...
