    Expect a lot of answers here :)

    It's like asking what you should eat for dinner or what's the best broadhead. :argue:

    Haha, I know it opens a can of worms on the debate side, but if you have had a good experience with a bow and you would recommend it to somebody, then I can take a look at shooting one myself. I shot the Marquis Rob and thought it a great bow, is the Deadeye and Fear no Evil an up to date version of the Marquis???

    I would check out the z7 xtreme if you're wanting a great bow you can find at a very reasonable price. I went from a z7x to a newer flagship bow from another company, back to a z7x, just because I couldn't find a more accurate and forgiving bow.

    Again, there are people that would disagree with my opinion, but you asked, so there it is. I do recommend shooting it though.

    Best way to get tons of personal opinions and be no way nearer a decision is to ask, "Best -------------?"

    Best is always in the eye of the beholder. Some guys prefer nothing but raw speed, others smooth draw, others long brace height, others simply a name...start seeking bows to feel and test shoot and decide what you like and desire.

    I personally shoot the mission eliminator. Its a solo cam.

    It is very accurate. I can make a kill shot out to 90 yards.

    It is very smooth. I, a teenager, can pull it at 70.

    It is forgiving. I've tried torquing it and there is no difference under 35 yards.

    It is also a heavier bow not very heavy though: It weights about 4.2 lbs. Which is heavier then the Mathews or the newer bows. I personally like the heavier bows since they help hold on target much better. If I were you I'd go and shoot every solo-cam I could find.

    Dead in the hand, SOLID wall, smooth draw in a 343 fps single cam...its a sleeper bow and except for the name (not Mathews) I don't know how an unbiased person wouldn't love it.
