Default Help me out here!!!!!

I went a couple of weekends ago and shot several bows at the local archery shop. To make a long story short I narrowed my choice to the Bowtech General and the Hoyt Katera. Im really not overly concerned with speed but I must admit I was very impressed with the Katera, but the smoothness and lack of vibration in the General was just too good to pass up. They only had a 60# model so I had them order me a 70# model in 29 1/2 in draw. The bow was suppose to be here Mon but still hasnt arrived, during this time Ive read several post and reviews with guys praising the Katera. If the General doesnt arrive tomorrow, I will have to wait another week as I can only get to the shop on Sat. The season is closing in and I feel I need to get the bow setup and tuned. If the bow doesnt arrive tomorrow, should I just go ahead and get the Katera and get it seup or should I hold out for the General. Help me out with this one!:[&:]

The General is definitely worth the wait!

If you shot both bows and you felt more comfortable with the general,then I would wait on it,it won't take long at all to set it up.

Regardless which you choose. You have plenty of time yet. Wait it out and shoot em again and again. Pick the one you are most comfortable with. Plenty of time!!!
