Worst was a PSE/Carroll Intruder I owned many years ago.

That thing could not have the center shot adjusted without fletching hitting the riser.

Dealer didn't know what to do. He called PSE and they wanted him to make shims for arrow rest. I don't know how shims would have done anything except make it worse. The thing was a POS.


I gave to my Father in Law. Ex Father in Lawtoday :D

The quietest, smoothest bow that I have ever shot was the Bowtech General. The worst was the PSE X-Force right after they came out with it......I have never shot a bow with so much vibration...lol. I haven't shot the newer ones yet, but I hear and assume that they are better......?

Best......I have to compare these in relation to its time in comparison with other bows during the time:

1. Bowtech Patriot
2. High Country Royal Hunter
3. Oneida Lite Force Magnum..very smooth drawing
4. Martin Firecat
5. Martin Cougar Magnum(2000 model)

Worst:

1. Jennings Buckmaster..easily the worse
2. Browning Compound Hunter...2nd compound bow I ever had. Shot pretty decent but had 25% letoff and the wooden laminated limbs twisted.
3. Oneida Screaming Eagle....fast, but loud and heavy.
2.

Are you looking for just a smooth draw or a smooth shot as well?

If you are looking for a Smooth drawing Bow you should really check out the New Ross Carnivores with the crank. It is undoubtedly the smoothest Bow I have drawn in several years.

I haven't owned a compound In 15 years but the last compound I owned was an XI Impact. That bow was quick, quiet, smooth. I never had an Issue with It.

I haven't owned a bad bow so I guess I can't comment on the worst bow thing.:)
