This will be the bow I shot the elk with this next year.It was a hard bow to find but it was even harder to get any imfo at all on bowtech in 90+# draw. Every bowtech guy I talked to said YOU DO NOT NEED 90# BOW.It is not what i need but what I want that makes the bigest deal.If bowtech wanted to make the coice of what # bow I should shot I did not think they would have my best intrest in mind.I do know there is a lot of bows out there that are very good but the people that sell the bows make what bow is the best in my eyes.

Personally I would be happy to own either one of these bows. Currently I have a bowtech pro 38 and it's the best bow I've ever shot. However, I'm sure if I would have bought a Mathews I'd be saying the same thing right now. I just think that there are countless mfg. who make great bows I just don't think they get the credit they deserve because their bows cover a larger target market. While Mathews and Bowtech make bows only for the high end consumer, hoyt, pse, and other mfg make bows ranging from 200.00 on up so they aren't seen as the "best" bow mfg. It's almost like people wouldn't put dodge in the same category with porsche yet they make the viper which can more than handle almost any porsche on the road.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH !!! sorry bowfanatic, I couldn't help myself

I have been bowhunting for almost 15 yrs now and I have shot allot of different bows over the years. This past few months i have decided to upgrade my equipment and my choice boiled down to 2 bows bowtech and mathews. Without a doubt in my mind i chose the bowtech because of their new equalizer binary cam system, this bow is the fastsest, quietest, and smoothest bow on the market. HANDS DOWN !!!! I think bowtech has a better warranty system also.
Mathews claims that they have the fastest bows on the planet well I heard bowtech challeneged them at a shoot and they (mathews) walked walked away ...... I will be honest Mathews makes a great bow as well they compare very close to the bowtech ..... bowtech as the edge on them right now because of the 2 cam system mathews won't come close to the speed of a bowtech. We took a bowtech off the shelf at the shooting lanes, "constitution" and we set it up to match the equipment used (specs) to IBO speed recomendations this bow set at 55 lbs shot almost 227 FPS.
I have a couple of friends that shoot competitive 3D and they are seeing the shooters switch to bowtech ...... the majority of the last (Canadian) shoot were shooting bowtech's.
Keep up the good work Bowtech and let's see what Mathews does now !!!!

Well I am a bowtech man myself but they both make a great product but there is one company that has dug there own grave because the solo cam will always be around but Mathews can not move forward with different cam designs because of the hipe the make over the solocam. Bowtech is a company always moving forward and tring different things it seem every year they make a major change in there bows not because they needed to so they could survive but to put a better product out. I like that kind of approch. I remember a commercial I seen on tv a few years back It showed a company and there sign said "Where Number 1" and the commerical when say somthing like when your on top don't stick with the status quo or your sign will read "Where Numb" with the er 1 falling off. I think it kind of fits with Mathews.
