I think the worst bow I have ever shot was the Onieda..

The best bow I have ever shot.. I am not sure. My Black Ice is up there..

Any dual cam bow is out of the running. I don't care who makes it. Single cam all the way!

Actually I'll take a Dual Cam anyday over a Single Cam regardless of manufacturer. That's why they make both

My favorite Bows
1. BowTech Allegiance
2. BowTech 82nd
3. BowTech Guardian (I have a feeling my New Captain will soon step into this slot)
4. High Country Ultra Extreme

Worst bows???

It has to be either a Martin or a XI I shot. I liked the way the Martin shot I just couldn't keep limbs on it. (only bow I really ever had trouble with)
I never could enjoy shooting my XI. I ended up giving it away in about 4 months never even hunted with it.

Honestly. I would have to say the first generation X force was the worst.That thing felt like a tuning fork. Could have been that particular bow, and I am sure they have improved since there inception, but that would be the one. Best bows, I would have to say my Tribute, which I still love. I like the new Admiral. Allegiance is awesome. I also had the pleasure to shoot the new Hoyt Am32 and thought that it shot very nicely.

Best I ever shot was the Mathews DXT, PSE Bow Madness, and Hoyt Alphamax32 probably.

Worst I ever shot was probably PSE Mossy Oak-X and Bowtech Admiral.

Didn't say anything was wrong with a dual cam bow. But in my opinion they are not the "Best"... They are not as smooth on the draw, I can afford to sacrifice 20 fps... Besides, my shoulders thank me!

Best hunting bow I ever shot/ownedis either the Mathews Q2 or Switchback. They were quiet as hell, had no hand shock, and had a silky smooth draw.
Best target bow has to be the Martin Mystic...thing holds rock steady.
