I recently just bought a hoyt charger, and it is a great bow. When I went to the sports shop I shot the bowtech assassin, pse revenge, and the hoyt charger. I stayed away from the pse because of the weight of the bow. the bowtech assassin, and the hoyt charger were the same weight and around the same speed. i went with the hoyt because of the smoother draw even though the bowtech was faster. i have had it for a couple of months now and it is sweet. I have a 25 inch draw at 60#. i am shooting 254 grain Easton bloodlines and am getting 50# of kinetic energy.
