Default Parker bows

Anyone shoot a Parker Wildfire or Trailblazer? I'm going to buy one of them, but haven't decided which yet. Thanks for any opinions

I have not shot the Parker, but my best hunting buddy bought one and he loves it. He went and shot a bunch of bows and that's the one he came back with. He's real critical about his hunting gear. I just bought a Ross cr 331 or I would have bought a Parker. Good Luck!

I had the PARKER Outfitter and liked it until I shot the BT Alle. The Alle was a bit to tall for me so I got the BT Equalizer and the next year got the Tribute. Love them both. I gave away the Parker to my buddies oldest son of 13yrs old. Good company though. Go for what feels right for you. Best of luck.

I own an Outfitter and a BuckHunter-both nice shooting, smooth and quiet bows and great if you don't want to drop$800+ dollars on a first setup. Friends who shoot Matthews and Hoyt were impressed when they shot my first Parker a few years back. There are certainly faster and more technologically advanced bows by Matthews, Bowtech, Hoyt, etc. out there, but it's a good bow for the price. If I were working with that budget again I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

I have the Wildfire and I like it alot. This is my first bow and has been a pleasure to shoot. However, next year I will be buying a faster bow. Nothing wrong with it I just want to have more speed.

I bought a Wildfire two weeks ago. I had an older used bow that was right handed and I wanted to switch to left handed. I'm hitting vitals on my target deer 25yds in no time. It does leave a little to be desired on the speed side, but I'm also using heavier grain arrows and have the weight down to about 60lbs. At 25yds my Wildfire will put a fieldpoint out the other side of the target deer, my friend's Drenalin may be faster and a little more quiet but even he admitted that my Wildfire and arrow setup seemed to pack a harder hit. S-coil stabilizer, limb savers and cat whiskers and it's fairly quiet also. It's hard to get any respect out of a Matthews shooter, but even he was impressed with the Wildfire.
