HOW MAKES THE BEST

Mathews bow

QAD HD or Ripcord drop-a-way rest

G5 or Spot Hogg sight

As far as bows go, you can't go wrong with most brands. Mathews, Ross, Bowtech, Diamond, PSE, Hoyt, Martin, Bear, and some others i'm probably forgetting, all make very comparable high end bows. Plenty of guys will tell you mathews are the best, that was the case a few years ago, but it's not anymore. Shoot a bunch, and find out what you like.
 
I've been using a trophy taker shakey hunter drop away over the past couple of years. I've had it on a few different bows, and havent had it go out of tune one time. I would reccomend one, but just like bows, there are a lot of good ones out there.
 
Sights are the same way, there are plenty of good ones. I bought an extreme archery sight a year ago, and love it. I think I paid around $85 for it, but it has been well worth the money.

Stay away from the drop zone, internal parts are bad. Muzzy zero effect is the drop away of all drop aways. I personally went back to a WB.

Hands down i think the vertical inline pins and no tools adjustment of the trophy ridge flatliner series are the best.

I disagree, I think the Muzzy zero effect rest is the worst drop away on the market. Id put a biscuit on my bow before that thing and I would never put a biscuit on my bow. Everyone likes different products though. Just my opinion.

I replaced my drop zone after 3 seasons. The launcher arm froze in position and couldnt even be forced down.

It's funny, I looked back at some of the old posts and you, me and Krott were all talking about different rest.......we choose the Drop Zone. Mistake or not ?

Man !! Another Whisker Biscut fan. I even put one on my wifes bow.....I guess I will have to try one. LOL

Shoot a Mathews and you will know why it is #1

i will guarantee u that the pse x force is the best bow for the money in every sense of the word archery equipment there is no other bow on the market that will do what it does check out the video on you tube it is faster, less torque , and more penitration on 60 pounds than other bows have on 70 pounds         i have had one for two years know and there is nothing like it  i have a trophy taker rest and a cobra sight  there is nothing like pse mathews slogan is catch us if you can  pse blew bye them 2 years ago change your slogan mathews plus for an extra bonus they came out with three new x force bows this year

So what you an these other guys think is that if someone would break into your house and was going to kill your family you wouldn't kill them first because it's illegal.If you think i'm a poacher then so be it.I was just defending my self nothing more if i did something wrong then i'm sorry.

If i'm such a horrible hunter how can i gained permisson to hunt some of the most posted property?I been hunted three posted farm for 4 years now with no complaint from the owners.I was a kid i had supervision 200 yards from me maybe they should of been beside me and none of this wouldn't of happen.I learn alot since then if this would occured agiain i would diffently react different.

If I'm such a horrible hunter then how can I gain permission to hunt some of the most posted property in my area? I have been hunting three posted farms for 4 years now without a complaint from the owners. I was a kid and I didn't have any supervision except for 200 yards away from me. Maybe my supervision should have been beside me and none of this would have happened. I learned a lot since then. If this would have occured again I would have reacted differently. 

 
There. I fixed it for you retard.
 
Don't shoot a cow. I had morons like you shoot two cows on my neighbors farm which I worked on when I was a teenager. I gladly helped him put up posted signs on his 50 acres which I hunted for a few years alone to keep you trash/slob hunters out.
 
PS    F-YOU!

PSE Xforce sounds like a 20 gauge going off

If the X force sounds like a 20 gauge, then the mathews does as well.

I dont see the DXT that list

this is probably going to take alot of heat from some of the guys, but i stayed away from matthews, pse, and bowtech and for only this reason, ppl have been killing deer with archery equipment that was old, slow and noisy that didnt cost as much money as these new bows do.  That being said, i  bought a reflex growler last year which is made by hoyt..and i couldnt be happier.  A really expensive bow isnt going to kill a deer, its how you shoot whichever bow you buy.  I am not down talking hoyt, or matthews or any of them at all.  Ive shot them all at shops and i really do like them all, i just dont see the purpose of spending that much money on one.  When i first got back on the market for a new bow i was shooting an old jennings and i ultimately just outgrew my bow, so i decided to get back into archery after a few years off.  I did alot of shopping, and pricing, and testing and heres what ive found.   EVERY BOW WILL KILL A DEER if the shooter properly practices and knows the limitations of his or her bow.  If money isnt an option, then any of them are a good choice, youll just have to see which one you are most comfortable with.  But dont be afraid to check out some of the "made by" bows such as mission "made by" matthews or reflex "made by" hoyt.  As far as rests, i personally shoot a quality archery design drop away rest and i am very satisfied with it.  Most of the guys i know shoot WB, and i dont nessecarily dislike them, i jsut like the idea of my arrow not touching anything when its released. with the whisker biscit your arrow is incontact with a the surface of the rest the entire time...so basically any drop way i feel is better than a whisker biscit.  Sights, copper john, toxonics, and the new g5 sites are some of the best ive seen.  I shoot an older toxonic setup, and i have no complaints but i may be on the market for a new site..anyway best of luck with whichever bow you decide to buy....shoot straight

Reflex makes the best bow for the money.  I have a reflex excursion with the cam and 1/2, basically a Hoyt Magnatec with different cams that I bought 4-5 yrs ago.  Since then I have killed a doe and buck every year with it.  I also shot over 40 3d shoots throughout a summer and consistently shot 270's-290s every week.  For the money, they are the best bow I have ever shot, since then I bought a higher priced Hoyt, but still have my good ole reflex.

but let me tell you that these days all bows are about the same
