Hoyt nitrum 34 has one of the best Hoyt draw cycles in my opinion.

I'm still shooting a 20 year old Golden Eagle compound. 60 lbs draw with 65% let off, the old Washington state let off limit. I keep up with my buddy and his brand new brand name bow at the archery walk through at Tacoma Sportsmans club. Its also 100 times quieter than the new bows and has a super smooth draw. Only draw back to my bow is that only a few shops in the state still replace the strings for it! I will say though... it has killed a lot of blacktails. I've killed a deer with it and turned around and my father killed a deer the same year with it many times. If I was getting a new bow it would be a bear arena 34 or one of the newer bear archery choices. For the time being though, I will keep her shooting and cleaned and she will keep putting venison in the freezer!

Digging my new Dream Season Epix. First season with it and killed a nice bull.

I've owned an old Martin Jaguar that I shot just as good as my 2 Bowtechs.  Yes the bowtech is smoother but it's all over rated.  New boss are quite and smoother but do t necessarily shoot straighter.  Shoot what feels good to you! They are all good.  It's just like Ford, chevy, dodge take ur pick we all have an opinion.
