As others have said, go for what feels the best for you. If you're willing to drop 2k on a bow, and that's the one that feels best to you, more power to ya.

As far as "most tourney wins" yada yada yada, there's more to a hunting bow than accuracy. Yes, you definately need that, but speed and silence are just as important. I haven't shot either of the bows mentioned, mostly because I can't afford either right now and don't want to be yearning for a better bow than my HavocTec. That said, I'd be willing to bet that they're both comparable, but Hoyt has taken the initiative to innovate new technology, rather than just building on old technology. Most of the reviews would suggest that's the case, and to argue otherwise is just Mathews bias.
