These three brands have been leading the industry with countless innovations in recent years. This is a poll to get the Thoughts of others on the best of these. Vote, state the name, and most importantly, give a reason why. It doesnt have to be between the 3, as prime, elite, bear and others are quickly moving up on peoples lists. Lets get a good arguement going here.
Bowtech They spend more time and money making state of the art bows and not on advertising. Not saying just saying PS
I will cover all the bows. And get the comments out of the way. Mathews are ugly and slow Hoyt's suck Bowtechs limbs break/splinter/blow up. Elites are slow/ owned by poachers/ have cam lean and have a banana grip. That should cover it.
Mathews! Hands Down! Mathews dares to see what is the next new thing going to be with bows. I remember the first time I saw the Z7 Extreme, it didn't look like anything else. IMO, that bow is one of the BEST bows ever built. Mathews is very in tune and very aware of all types of hunters/shooters. They address the need for bows that will fit all types of shooters. Be it tournament bows, a bow for female hunters, short DL and lone DL bows, single cam, dual cam and now No Cam.
The only thing sillier than this pole is the premise of the post. You might as well start another what's the best broadhead thread
I picked Mathews even though I have a PSE. I shot my deer with my brothers Mathews this year and from what I've seen, they make the easiest bows to shoot. They seem quiet, accurate, and dependable. Just my opinion
I shot a lot of bows before I bought my Mathews Chill R. I had a Renagade bow since 2002 before that. So if I can get as many years out of this one I will be happy. The Chill just felt the best in my hand, your thoghts may very than mind but that's what makes it a fun sport. Beefie
I get some people this or that bow fits and feels the best of the bows they have shot.. but waaaay too many "fan boys" and thats just being stupid imo. That being said, I have not and probably never will own a new top of the line Hoyt or Mathews ect because I refuse to pay over $1k for a bow when a $300-$400-$500-$600 bow will kill deer just the same. Was at my pro shop and could have shot the new no cam or any of the new Hoyts.. no need for me to shoot them at that price tho. And yes, I could buy any of them if I wanted to, I just dont want to. Just like the bow I just got.. I could have got the new Arena 30 if I wanted to, but why? Im sure their top of the line Agenda 7 from last year will kill deer and do everything I need it to do. It shoots fine, fits me great, has a nice draw cycle.. why would I want or need the newest model for almost twice as much? This bow works just fine for me. If people want to sell the bow they bought last year and loose a ton of money to buy this years latest and greatest.. more power to them. Im not putting anyone down, its just not for me.
Too many out there to limit yourself to one manufacturer. I have been shooting the same Hoyt for 6 years, I keep saying this is the year to get a new one, just too cheap to buy a new one when my alpha max shoots as well as it does.n
I don't get how people can say this bow is better than the next so definitively. I get saying which has the best technology or innovation, but which is best is purely on feel and subjective to the user. If it was what company has the most innovation and technology, I would say prime, bowtech, mathews/hoyt, bear, obsession/elite etc. this would change if it was what appeals to me most. It would be prime, hoyt, elite, bear, mathews, obsession. Feel and technology are totally different. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have always been biased towards Hoyt because that is all I've ever shot. However I have shot some Prime bows and those are some sweet shooting bows.
I really appreciate how a Mathews finish will last a very long time. I had a switchback xt and hunted hard with it for 8 years and the finish and no marks on it. High quality. Everyone will have a share of opinions but I have heard of other bows finishes only lasting a few years before having noticible wear such as flaking.
I just laugh when I see these threads. With today's technology you simply cannot say "this brand is better than that brand." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
