    Default Bow reviews?

    I was just wondering if anybody knows of a good site or magazine that reviews different types of bows. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Why you cant trust reviews just ask and each will give you his opinions right here. I have found the bow I was looking for. Mathews Legacy. Im out of hunting bow market. Got everthing I always wanted in this bow. I buy a couple bows each year and try. I shoot for dealer and get good deal so I can always sell and get moneyback on bows bought. Has fair as 3d bow I will be using something with little longer axle for forgiveness. Legacy is smooth, quiet and very accurate for short axle bow. Go shoot one and see why all Legacy owners love there bows. Good Luck.

    I think it was Petersen's Bowhunting that has a yearly review of the newest and best bows around.

    I just discovered the following site a few days ago and, as much as I have looked at it so far, found it quite enlightening. For some reason, though, my impression is that the folks there have some kind of dislike for the Mathews line. But have a look; you may find it useful.

    Sunday: Mathews is the best
    Monday: Hoyt is the best
    Tuesday: Hoyt is the best
    Wednesday: Mathews is the best
    Thursday: AR is the best
    Friday: Mathews is the best
    Saturday: BowTech is the best

    That was easy:

    Talk to people who have actually shot the bows. Each bow usually has something real nice about it but a few personal dislikes. Id say find one that you have a lot of likes and can deal with the few dislikes.
