solberg, you MUST shoot and look over each bow yourself. What feels great to FINCHASHER, might feel like junk to you. Comparing these bows are like comparing apples and oranges; totally different designs. Shoot both and take the one you like the most. If I had the money, I would probably go with the Hoyt, but that's just ME!

I shot them both and went with the Vtec. It's all about what fits you best. I like the cam and a half better than any single cam system and Hoyt has the best limbs in the business.

You can't go wrong with either bow. As Illini mentioned the best thing to do is shoot both. They are each going to have a different feel and only you can decide which feels best to you. Either one will get the job done.

If you shot em both blind folded, you'd by the Mathews....quiet and smooth. If your buying one to last a lifetime...I'd probably go with the Vtec, great limb durability....and a little faster than the Switchback. The bowtech (Allegiance) isfaster than the other two, and has a rock solid anchor point, and a unique cam design that keeps both wheels in unison. If you can hang on a while longer Hoyt is supposably making some considerable changes for 2006...should know what they are by the end of Oct. Gotta wait till Christmas before we see what bowtech and Mathews come out with. Ishoot a Mathews.

I agree with all the others, you need to try them all. Then, try them agene. I fired the Bow Tech, Matthews and the V Tech. I choose the V-Tech, all though I will agree it didnt seem as fast as the others, hard to tell.. The draw ws as smooth as melted butter, in my humble opinion, it was the quitest bow. My son has a Matthews Outback, He has told me that he wishes he purchased the V-Tech. He also feels it's quiter and he feels it holds a tighter group. He shots mine better the his. (it's not the set up) No matter what bow you choose, make sure you dont regret your desicion. I havent looked back since I bought my V-Tech.
