There is no one single #1 top of the line bow or bow company. What one person likes someone else will dislike.

Take mallard and myself. I wouldn't shoot a Mathews if you paid me. I do not like the roller guards, the string supressors drilled in the thinnest and most stressed part of the limbs, nor do I like how the limb pockets do not sit square on the riser. I also have heard very little good about their customer service.

Bowtechs are great bows but they have a steep draw curve, and a narrow valley and depending on the model some are very top heavy and do not ballance well in the hand. They are however, very fast bows and many people like that.

Parker is what I really like to shoot. At least for now. I hunt in the Colorado rockies and the UL 35 is a very light and well balanced bow. It's a fairly fast bow, and it's a very quiet bow.

For me Parker is top of the line but for mallard he choses the Mathews.
