    I love my Elite Impulse 31. I loved my Elite E32 even more. However, I have always wanted a Mathews.. They have not come out with anything I wanted since the Z7. Now I held the Vertix and I do like that. Have not shot one. I would go with a 60 lb bow.. How you guys compare the bow to an Elite? Draw cycle, shootability, back wall, vibration, noise, etc.. I will shoot after the season is over and may even find one marked down..

    trial, I have shot a few mathews over the years and never found one that I liked other than the Z7.. I may just end up keeping the Elite, but I always get pulled to the mathews bows and then when I hold them I usually don't like them.. I really do think Elite makes a darn good bow..I regreted getting rid of the E32....I don't want to make the same mistake..

    If you are into the high end bows $ go with a Bowtech they make awesom bows with 32in draw and are Name brand good Quality and really nice if you want a Shorter bow that has 320fps There is Literally a list of them now but Mission by mathews makes the only ones that have the Big name but Never count out Bear Archery or PSE in the end your paying for the name in a Bow because even the Cheap ones hit 310fps now its just about what style you'd want
