The Max Extreme would be the best new hunting bow for me.
Too bad, it's not available in a 31" draw length.
It would probably replace my Mach 8 this year.
I know the Merlin quality first hand.
The only bow that competes with Merlin for overall quality is the Bowman.
Yes, I own both brands and am biased.
But the reason I own both is because I only want to own the very best available.
Other bows are very good to excellent but Merlin and Bowman sit at the top right now. JMO

O god, here we go.....

Double Creek,

Do a poll on here and see how many people here are paid to promote BowTech! I'm not! I have seen what they have to offer and have found it to be better than anything else that I could get my hands on.

The funny thing is that I rarely see commercials for BowTech! They have grown from word of mouth and letting their bows speak for themselves!

Apparantley you don't get the outdoor channel

.

There are several guys on this board that are on Bowtech's payroll and several that trying as hard as they can to get there

I know they make a great bow, I've owned bowtech, it's a good bow.

I've owned close to 40 bows in the last 31 years,,, I'll admit it, I'm a archery junkie BUT I'm happy with my addiction!! I've looked at Hoyt bows very closely for the last 3 years but have not bought one yet. You can't argue about the quality of their products but they have a few issues with their designs I just can't get around. I look at archery products with a different attitude. The design of any product I'm looking to buy must be very durable, perform as promised and last a long time. I mostly hunt and practice with hunting in mind year round in all types of weather. The design I look for must be simple, without add ons that can fail and render the whole system innoperable on, not only a hunt of a lifetime but a hunt that I've taken valuable time off work or from the family.
If I decide that I'm shopping for a new bow it must be exactly that, a completely new model with improved performance and accuracy if possible (read higher brace heights) I'll never buy a bow that doesn't offer me more that what I had with my previous bow. Now that I'm getting close to 50, I'll probably start buying bows with 60 pounds peak draw weight for hunting soon [&:] I'll still be looking for speed and accuracy when the day comes!!!! I'll also still be looking for bows with fewer parts
