As always I agree with Matt, It took me 3 months of research, and several days of shooting to decide which bow was for me. I have never spent this much time and energy picking out a bow, and I have never been so satisfied with my choice. Take your time, shoot and handle as many bows as you can, and do a "search" on this board about any bow you are considering, read all the threads on it, and anything else you can. Take your time and do it right. Perfect example, Matt loves bowtechs, I liked them, but none of their bows had All the features I wanted, Darton did. It doesn't mean Darton is better, it just means that for me it was, for Matt bowtech was the better choice. Sit down with pen and paper and write down what is important to you in a bow. Then underline the things you must have on your bow, and go from thier.
