All my compounds are Hoyts. My recurves are; Herter's and a Black Mamba. I use P.S.E.s for fishing.

My Pse works great for fishing, too.


Tied to the end of a rope and used for an anchor.
So tell us how you really feel about PSE. I think my coyote makes a good fishing bow. Cheap, shoots fine, and I dont mind getting it soaked.

Looks like a close race for Mathews and PSE. Never shot a PSE. Which PSE is comfrable (SP?) to a Switchback so I can make a comparason?

Your right I dont believe PSE makes a bow that can compete with a Switchback or even the Trykon for that matter. Pse sells a ton of lower cost bows and that is the main reason that PSE numbers are so high for sales. I used to work at a Pro Shop that sold PSE and I sold 2 or 3 PSEs to every Hoyt I sold but the PSEs I sold were like $200-400 dollar bows and the Hoyts were always $500 plus. I used to be a HUGE PSE fan but that was back when PSE had bows like the Mach 6, 8, and 10 and The Infinity series. I had a G force, Mach 6, Inferno Maxis, and a Carbon Lite. Then I shota Mathews and that was all over.

That quite simply tells you , why pay a ton of money for a bow when you can get one ALMOST as just as good? PSE is relatively priced pretty reasonably unlike ALOT of things these days. Not taking anything away from Hoyt, Mathews or any other "big name" bow but PSE does make some pretty good shooting and rugged bows and like you said, the price is right.
