Good unbiased review.
I had the opportunity to shoot both bows as well. I personally leaned toward the Captain. Admittingly, I'm getting partial to the way the binary cam feels since I've shot them for so long. But, all else being equal, these two bows are very comparable in terms of noise, vibration and shootability.
Where I think the Hoyt's have an advantage is in balance. They seem to balance out very well which most likely has to do with how the weight is distributed on the riser.
Both bows are excellent though. I'm glad that both Hoyt and Bowtech are still very hunter driven in terms of design and specs for their bows. I personally don't need a 350fps - 6" brace height, hunting bow like some other manufacturer is doing this year.
