I like my Mathews SQ2!
It was my first bow and only bow so far.

I was looking at all the bows mentioned above. I happened to walk into an authorized Mathews dealer. It just happened that one of the owners had the same exact draw length and was about the same strength. In addtion he liked the smaller axle to axle bow. He measuered me and said " you are same draw length as me.....my bow is only 60 lb limbs and I have them dialed down a little....wanna shoot my bow?"

Lets just say I shot my first arrow and it was an X. I know it was luck but can you imagine standing in a shop with a bunch of shooters and say " Cool...that was my first arrow..an X at 20 yards" And then I turn to the guys and say.." is that good?"

You guessed it......I bought one that day.....configured exactly same...including arrows and all.

I am partial to Mathews but I think you need to buy something that fits you. I feel like my bow is meant for me.
