The best bow I ever owned or shot was an Oregon. What a shame that company went under. I then went through a few High Country's which were decent. I shoot a Parker Phoenix right now and it is a nice shooter. My next one will likely be a Bow Tech.

Love my Mathews Outback . Ultra smooth . quiet , no recoil the design was revolutionary . Bowtech now offers the same design ; I have also heard great things about them. Both are pricey though. Prior to that Hoyt.

Right now a Mathews FX. Have been looking at a new Bow Tech Allegiance. But kinda pricey.$700.

I still shoot fingers (I keep telling myself I will go to a release when my shooting goes down hill, but I keep shooting good)so I can't bring my self to buy a new bow. I have been shooting the same one since '89 Hoyt Rocket 91#. I don't put the weight to brag, but the bow has held together shooting that poundage for over 7 years (was high 70's before we modified it) . I like the BowTechs, but would have a hard time buying anything other than a Hoyt after the way mine has performed.
Better too far back, than too far forward.

Ross CR 334. Not a speed merchant, but forgiving and quiet. Unfortunately, Ross doesn't make em anymore. I hear good things about the Cardiac.
Bows are too expensive for me to be buying a new one except every ten years or so, when the technology really changes.

Hoyt/Reflex #1......bow techs are nice too, I like the Diamond line.
The Lord has blessed us all today... It's just that he has been particularly good to me.

At this point, my favorite bow would be which ever I shoot.
I currently shoot a mathews SB XT. Bought for no other reason than it was one of the two left handed I got to shoot. The other was the Drenilan, which I didn't care for. Sure would have like to shot a Ross or a Diamond. I like a bit heavier bows. Once I get into the 3 lb, I find myself not as steady.
I know one thing, today's bows are worlds apart from the one I shot just two years ago.

I shoot a bowtech tomcat, and it does fine. It has killed every deer I shot with it in the 2 or 3 years i've owned it. I dont think you can ask for much more. I am considering buying a diamond black ice soon.....depending on how well the real estate market treats me in the near future  Theres so many good bows made today. I havent shot a new one in the past 3 years that I didnt like.

I am a firm believer in my Darton Maverick. I've had a couple of other bows since I bought my Maverick about 7 years ago, but nothing stacks up to it.
