parker or martin?
 
I shoot a parker hunter extream mag right now. If i bought a Martin Bengal would that be an upgrade or not. of course it would be two years newer, but as a whole would it be an upgrade? hopefully someone here has compared them.

I just bought the Martin Jaguar. It is by far my favorite bow ever used. It is compact, fast and quiet. It came as a complete package for $319.00. I sripped off all of the factory gadgets and upgraded. I wish I would have known about the Bengal when I purchased my bow. I live in Cincinnati and am a huge Cincinnati Bengals fan. You should by that bow and repaint it hunters orrage with black stripes.

The Bengal uses parallel limb technology with a longer riser. That means it should shoot a little more quiet and vibration free. Two years newer means slightly newer technology. My opinion is that it may be worth the money to upgrade, but there's nothing says you have to. Parker makes some pretty good bows, too. I'd suggest you shoot a Bengal and make up your own mind.
