I'm completely unfaithful to a brand. However, I am faithful to the shop I give my business to. I will choose from whatever they decide to carry. Their great service is far more important then any particular brand. I've found that today, all brands are good and that there is a bow in every lineup that I'd love shooting. My local shop carries 3 or 4 brands and I have a hard time deciding between the models of each of these manufacturers. There are many bows I would be happy shooting. I always want to leave my options open, therefore I'm not dedicated to any one brand.

Bear Whitetail 2
PSE
Hoyt Super Slam
Mathews Q2
Mathews Legacy
Mathews LX
Mathews Outback

I'd say I'm VERY faithful to Mathews.

I had a few Bear Grizzly recurves
1987Bear Whitetail something or another - compound
1988 Jennings Galeforce
1996 Jennings Buckmaster
1996 Mathews MQ-1...was absolutely blown away !!! A little after you Elkcrazy ...but ahead of most folks on the Mathews craze !!
Mathews Ultra 2
Mathews LX

I get wishy washy at times ......but have yet to see anything I like better than the Mathews line !! But I am very interested in the Merlin's !!

I am a product SLUT

The make, manufacturer, or name don't mean a thing to me.

If the girl next door has something cool to offer I am on it.[:-]

Lets see I started in 63 with a BenPearson then to a bear then Hoyt back to bear and then the compound came out I shot an Allen then a Carroll then I bought a Darton SL 1000 I believe it was since that time I have srtayed only once from Darton and that was because it was free a Mountaineer the hardest bow to keep in tune I ever saw I got a new Darton about 8 years ago and since that time I have had 4 more I still have 2 and will probably stick with them for good.

Since I bought my 1st bow that I did not make in 1956 I have shot MANY. Eddings (my 1st), Bear,Ben Pearson, Hoyt, Groves, Herters, Paul Bunyan, Magna Flite, Jennings, PSE, Martin, Golden Eagle, Astro , Carrol, American Archery, Damon Howatt, Darton & probably a few I have forgotten.
I have been Bowhunting biggame with a bow for 46 years now. I look at the new bows every year at shows ect. but for the past 20 years have shot only Darton. I "JUST" like them & bought a new one (1 cam) for this past season.
I cannot say anything bad about any others-They(Darton) have always had what I was looking for AND the MASS weight of the bow itself is one of the best features to me as long as I like the grip. If you like the way the grip feels in your hand-you will (most times) shoot the bow well. It's like the Rocky Mountain Broadheads I started using when they 1st came on the Market-I see no reason to change when they (Bow & Broadhead) have served me so well in the past.
I will be taking them after a Buffalo this coming March.

Hoyt Game Getter III to an XI Flatliner (junk) to a Proline (pre-Darton) Mountain Bow (great bow) to a Mathews Feather Max (another great one) to a Mathews Legacy (awesome bow).

I'm holding onto the Legacy for at least 1 more year. After seeing Mathews offerings this year, I'm content w/ the Legacy. Bowtech and Hoyt do look interesting though. If they shoot as recoil free as my Legacy, it's going to be a tough call.
