I said in the beginning ive always been a mathews faithful before this. The speed, size, weight: stats dont lie, this bow has it all. Not dogging any other bow because like i said i loved my mathews and my hoyt but considering the assassin was $640 w/ accesories (which i obviously replaced) was worthy of why it was the best selling bow of 2011. Whatever bow you like, shoot it i just suprisingly prefer my bt over my mathews z7.
