While it was an interesting test, I never get too excited with human testing. Opinions vary, and bias enters even when blindfolded.

I' d prefer as many tests as possible to be recorded on a machine by an independent company that doesn' t sell bows. I would prefer all draws lengths measured to be the same. I' d rather a machine recorded the decibel level, opposed to a subjective opinion . I would also think there should be something that could measure recoil and vibration, with the bow held by a stand or something other than a person. Maybe a slow motion video could record things like nock travel or recoil.

Their test was a good start and is better than reading manufacturer ads. Let' s hope it' s taken further, down the road.
