My dxt review: as someone else said, it is a HUNTING bow, it is light, short and thus easy to maneuver, quick, quiet and very smooth to draw.It's a double-edged sword though, what makes it nice also makes it difficult to get used to shooting-wise,it's very easy to cant one way or the other b/c it's so short and light, it took a couple of weeks before I was consistently accurate with it. It's pretty shock free but not in the league of the general in terms of shock-free (but what is?). I see some that want to compare it to the "speed" bows, I don't think that's a fair comparision, the a-a is very different as is the weight and other specs. If you are looking for a lightning fast speeds, the airbornes and x-force would be a better choice. If you are looking for a shock-free release, the general would be better. I don't shoot 3-d or targets, I hunt whitetail deer exclusively, therefore the dxt was my choice b/c I felt it was agood balance of all the traits that I look for in a hunting rig.
