Whats the word ont he new PSE's??
I was currently thinking about a Bowtech Admiral/Captain.. But my buddy had just told me that PSE came out with some real nice bows which deserved to be looked @. Has anyone shot them??? R they as smooth as Bowtech when fired?? Before I decide I would like to know...

They have more hand shock than the bowtech admiral when they are fired. I wont try and mask that or anything.
but think about it this way... What good is less handshock??? It doesnt mean the bow is any quieter or more accurate. Other than a creature comfort, hand shock basically means zilch when rating a bows overall performance. If that IS what you are wanting, id have to argue that the Bowtechs are going to be unbeaten in that catagory.

Try the link.
I personally would like to try the Vendetta XL, but several look promising.

Also agree the CP risers are tough to beat for "shot feel". No recoil, no noise, no vibe.
Then again you are comparing apples to oranges- The CP bows while good performers are not the speed demons the XF bows are- not even close. A more apt comparison would be the 82nd model to the XFs.
For what they are, bows like the Omen are incredibly quiet and very tame to shoot. I've shot the Monster quite a bit as well, and the XF bows win for lack of noise and recoil at least as far as "in my hands" goes.
Very impressive lineup from PSE this year. Impressive enough for me to order one without waiting to see what else 2010 brings. Since my departure and return to Archery I'd def have to give PSE the "most improved player" award. The newer PSE bows are worlds better than the bows they were making just 5 or 6 years ago. Like night and day.
(*FYI- leaving town for 2 weeks today so if someone wants to argue with my observations ,as is the norm here lately, you'll have to wait til I get back

It's a tough call, my buddy shoots an Admiral and cousin a Commander, and they are dead in the hand. However I shot a friends x-force he got this year and I am used to my 82nd and imho the x-force still had quite a bit more vibration then the 82nd. Also, I like that the 82nd is 80% let off, most x-force bows are 70%. I guess the feeling in hand and let-off was the deciding factor.

Not saying your wrong, just goes to show ya that all of our opinions shouldnt mean jack to the OP and he should make up his own mind
