The pleasant to shoot Mathews VXR 31.5 is flat shooting, packed with kinetic energy and has all of the advantages of a speed bow.

The Hoyt Carbon RX4 Alpha is tough, reliable, accurate and forgiving, and it’s an excellent fit for hunters who prefer a compact and lightweight compound.

The Bowtech Revolt X is a remarkably smooth, fast hunting bow that most shooters will find easy to tune.

PSE’s new flagship bow is clearly designed to appeal to the growing number of bowhunters who place a premium on pleasant-to-shoot over super-fast.

Splitting the difference between smooth and shootable, the Hoyt Helix will hit the sweet spot for many shooters.

The Realm SS fills a niche for bowhunters who desire high quality and Bowtech accuracy in a reasonably fast, smooth-shooting bow.

The Xpedition Archery Mako X compound is reasonably quiet, if not a contender for the quietest speed bow on the planet.

The Bowtech Realm SR6 offers tremendous speed, while at the same time retaining features that make Realm bows highly accurate, tunable and pleasant to shoot.
