What are the advantages of one over the other? I have a hoyt magnatec and have been looking at the new hoyt bows. Not sure if the aluminum riser is much better that I need an upgrade.

RE: About Check-mate Bows?

A bit of advice...You may want to think of starting lower than 55. I'd say 50 max and closer to 45. You'll learn to shoot faster, and it will be more enjoyable, imho.

Does a quiver that attaches to the limbs (ie...selway, great northern) affect the way a bow performs? In your opinion what is the best for a longbow? recurve?
