Do yourself a favor and don't get caught up in the "Big Three" hype (Mathews, Bowtech, Hoyt). Bowtech's quality has plundered in the past 2 years, Hoytsare loud and have to much vibration and jump, and Mathews (though very smooth on the draw) are slow in comparison to all the others and all they do each year is add another dampner and call it a new model.

I would recommend the new High Country Iron Mace or the Speed Pro. I recently purchased the Speed Pro and I can tell you it's quiet, shock free and much smoother than the Bowtechs. It has the great Barnsdale limbs. Oh, and it's also super fast.
