There is no one single #1 top of the line bow or bow company. What one person likes someone else will dislike.

Take mallard and myself. I wouldn't shoot a Mathews if you paid me.;) I do not like the roller guards, the string supressors drilled in the thinnest and most stressed part of the limbs, nor do I like how the limb pockets do not sit square on the riser. I also have heard very little good about their customer service.

Bowtechs are great bows but they have a steep draw curve, and a narrow valley and depending on the model some are very top heavy and do not ballance well in the hand. They are however, very fast bows and many people like that.

Parker is what I really like to shoot. At least for now. I hunt in the Colorado rockies and the UL 35 is a very light and well balanced bow. It's a fairly fast bow, and it's a very quiet bow.

For me Parker is top of the line but for mallard he choses the Mathews.

Mathews for me, and no other including Hoyts and Bowtechs, and in reverse of what BigBulls said, I would not shoot a Bowtech if somebody paid me a million dollars, they have some good bows, but I do not like them, and never will Hoyt maybe, but not likely, Parker probable!

Bowtechs do nothing for me, why do they try and take after Mathews?? Anybody, because Mathews leads the bow competition in designs and technology!

#1 Mathews is the LX, or Legacy, and maybe the Outback!

I wouldn't say there is one top of the line bow. Hoyt, Matthews, Bowtech, Parker, and Merlin all make excellent bows. Everyone has different preferences. Having said that, I am buying a Bowtech later this month.:)
