Now if I was going to be shooting with fingers or at extreme distances like the longest 3Ds than the Q2XL would be my pick.For practical bowhunting purposes (40 yards or there abouts) I see no reason to give up my Q2. I've shot both bows many times and still favor my Q2.The long riser design still feels like I'm shooting a much longer bow than 34" and the accuracy seems that way as well.The Q2 is one of bowhuntings' finest.
