I shot flagship bows from Hoyt, Elite, PSE, Bear, Mathews and Bowtech the past few weeks trying to decide on a new bow. For me, I didn't like the way the Mathews draw cycle ramped up and I really didn't like how top heavy the bow felt. Personal preference though. For me, the Bowtech BTX was the winner of the group, it was stiff but smooth and shot like a house on fire. I ended up going with a new 2014 Bowtech Carbon Overdrive and am happy with my choice, it isn't quite to the caliber of the BTX but the price was right.
