    Done dude it!!!

    I went and shot bows today...Mathews, Bowtech, Martin ALL VERY NICE BOWS. BUT....drum roll...The SBXT had an easier pull from the relaxed position. It was between the Drenalin and XT but I found the Drenalin to have a HARD first start..then it drew smoothly. The XT was a smooth and even pull. I put them next to each other trying to figure out why. The axle to axle was same. Poundage both at 62. The Pro-Person and I noticed that the Riser Brace traveled farther up the limb! This reduced the limb's ability to bend. Once you get it moving it was smooth but the issue was the initial strength needed to bend the limb. The XT brace was lower and provided more of the limb to bend. Also the XT had more horizontal profile.

    ANYWAY...I bought the SBXT! I am officially a Mathews SNOB!

    HAPPY Birthday to me!!

                  Just go with what feels best for you. If you end up being one of us so-called snobs, then just be sure that's the bow you're going to be happy with. You're doing right, shoot them ALL!

                  Oh, and grizz, congrats on the new ride.

                    Congrats on the XT bro!! Sweet shootin bow right there.
                    I shot a BT Guardian today. Sweet bow, and fast, but if you don't mind a bow that jumps out of your hand then their great!! And this was the personal bow of a Bowtech shop owner who is also a techie on archerytalk. It was tuned perfectly.
                    Should've heard him bash Elite...

                              The Bowtech Guardian had a REAL narrow grip. My hand couldn't grip it. May be just my hands. The Hoyt was close. I own a Hoyt. The horizontal design of the SB had virtually no hand shock. Just a little better than the Hoyt V.
                              The SB was soooooo easy to draw with no hard wall or quick drop into the valley, shoot with no shock and hold at full draw.

                              It just felt better
