    It will be the first "new" bow I will have bought in 8 years, when I bought a new '05 BT Patriot in '06. My '08 Allegiance was in fact like new but not new, so was not warrantied to me.

    Never did get to try an Elite Energy 35 or 32, none around my area in stock and I was getting antsy. I narrowed it down to a Mathew's Chill and the Hoyt Faktor. I liked both of them equally well. Great draw cycle for me on both, little more valley on the Faktor. Just my opinion, but both are very smooth shooting. I think I would be happy with either one. I decided to go with the longer bow though it has a slightly shorter brace height. I have a Hoyt Faktor 34 coming with the blackout riser and Realtree Xtra camo limbs. Just had to be a little different I guess. Will be the first Hoyt bow I will have ever owned. Now all I have to do is wait. :(
