Default Most Underrated Bows

Who is the most underrated/least respected bow company out there?

I tried to get as many as I could think of, if there are any more ya'll want, lemme know.

For the record, I think Parker makes the most underrated bows, and since they hardly advertise, they're dirt cheap compared to many.

It was also requested that we "discuss" the most overrated bows co's as well. So, vote for the most UNDERrated bow and also tell us your thoughts on the most OVERrated bows.

I feel that Mathews makes the most overrated bows. Not to say that they aren't good products, they do shoot great, but I don't feel they're nice enough to warrant the price tags they carry.

I'd say most underrated would be Bear, they make great bows for the money. As far as least respected, Matthews by far!

I'd have to say Darton. I really like their entire lineup for 07, and the 08's look great as well.

Parker. Even my Mattews and Hoyt friends think my Wildfire XP is well worth the $399 I spent on it.

Thispost is not right, it should be equal, should read what is the most under rated bow and the most overrated bow you know of. You have to stir the pot to make sure everything is warm.

I can only run one poll at a time on a post. But we can add that as an aside to the original topic.
