Default Just traded my 05 Switchback for...

Traded Switchback(plus $200) for a new08 HCA Speed Force. I'm pretty stoked although I won't be able to shoot it until tomorrow.
At #72 and29" shooting 400grn arrows, I'm hoping to use 1 pin out to 30 yrds.
Mathews makes a great bow, but the chrono don't lie.

Welcome to the site.
And if your happy with the deal.......... Thats all that counts. Both are great bows. I like my bow and will have it for yrs. An upgrade will come soon, but I will keep this one and pass it on to my wife and then son.

Yeah I went from a darton maverick extreme to 2 bowtech commanders...lol got good deals on the 07 models. Local bowtech guys an a** telling me the commander isnt good for anything other then a target bow.

so you based this all on speed of the bow?

Not really. I actually shot the Speed Force at 62lbs and was pleasantly surprised. Almost zero hand shock and fast. The draw cycle isnt like the Switchback's. Not as smooth andnot much of a valley, but a very solid wall.
Of course, there are gonna be trade-offs.
I'm expectingaround #92 k.e. (vs. #73 w/ the Switchback)shooting 400 grn ACC 3-49s. I just hope they are stiff enough.
For me, it was worth the trade.
