RE: PSE(AR)vs. Mathews/bowtech/hoyt?
I looked at the AR34 last season. They are good bows, seem fairly shock and vibration free when I shot one, however I wanted a single cam bow that would easily get me well over 300 fps this summer for 3D. The patriot when compared to the AR34 Ram Plus was simply a faster bow. The AR34 did have a bit more brace height, however the extra speed of the patriot was more attractive to me. I have owned nothing but PSE for the last 10 years, so I decided to try something different this time.
