Parker got my money and I never looked back. I can' t afford to buy a new bow every year so this one has to last me a long time. I have had pro shop owners that have commented on how my bow was much quieter than other bows at the shooting line. I have never heard anything bad about a Parker bow or their customer service. 100% lifetime warranty on the entire bow, strings excluded. They make excelent bows at a very reasonable price.
