    I second that.. Though you want a nice smooth draw and solid back-wall.. But that's just me..

    You have to go shoot them all to know how they feel. After you shoot a bunch you'll get a preference for axle to axle length, brace height, draw weight, draw cycle and grip shape.

    For me the best bow I've shot in many years is the Xpedition Xcentric 7 it is super light 32"ata but holds steady, great repeatable grip, very fast for 7" brace height bow. It is also the most accurate bow in my hands that I've had.

    Others to try that fit my 32-34"ata and brace height requirement Xpedition Xception, Halon 7, Bowtech Prodigy, obsession Defcon M7, K32(k34 too), Elite Energy 32(Synergy), Prime Ion or Rize
    I haven't liked the Hoyts I shot in 2016
    I haven't shot the Bear or PSE but they all put out great bows

    I would also say that there is no best. Lots of good brands and models available. You can search one of a couple million threads on the subject if you want to get bored out of your mind.

    The best bow in the world is the one I'm holding while I'm releasing an arrow through the vitals of a deer. :tu:
