Guys, I have had the opportunity to shoot most of the new '09 bows. So far I haven't shot one that would even make me consider laying down my '06 Ally. I don't know what it is about this bow that I like so well. As far as I'm concerned, it is one of the best hunting bows ever offered. It's fast, forgiving, and I just can't tell that much difference in the amount of hand shock compared to the new bows. Am I missing something?? Am I crazy??? To be honest I don't know that I would even trade my ally straight up for one of the new models. To make a long story short, it's gonna take alot more than what came out this year for me to consider an upgrade.

Martin cheetah 08 is the best and for the buck.

I haven't tried it but the 09 Martin Warthog looks pretty good. 350 fps!
