Also agree the CP risers are tough to beat for "shot feel". No recoil, no noise, no vibe.

Then again you are comparing apples to oranges- The CP bows while good performers are not the speed demons the XF bows are- not even close. A more apt comparison would be the 82nd model to the XFs.

For what they are, bows like the Omen are incredibly quiet and very tame to shoot. I've shot the Monster quite a bit as well, and the XF bows win for lack of noise and recoil at least as far as "in my hands" goes.

Very impressive lineup from PSE this year. Impressive enough for me to order one without waiting to see what else 2010 brings. Since my departure and return to Archery I'd def have to give PSE the "most improved player" award. The newer PSE bows are worlds better than the bows they were making just 5 or 6 years ago. Like night and day.
