Considering moving up to one or the other. I've shot the dxt (Mikes Guns Shop) and the katera (Gulf Coast Outdoors). Both are awesome sweet and very quiet. Price is comparable, so...what do you think?

Zack just got the PSE TS...baddest bow I have seen. Quiet and super fast. Very small.

I have shot both, and currently own a Hoyt Trykon. They are both sweet bows, but at this point I think that it boils down to personal preference. I don't think that you can go wrong with either. Let us know what you decide.

I personally shoot Hoyt but what I say to you is shoot both and decide what fits you best. To me the Hoyt just shoots and feels better. But that is just me.

You might want to check around I have heard returns of the Drenalin and DXT are very high. I have shot alot of Mathews bows and they have produced some great bows, but I know a few people that have gone back to a Switchback XT. Honestly I think the best bow that Mathews has ever built is the Q2, by the way if anyone has one they want to get rid of I would like to talk to you about it.

I would look around, and shoot some other bows. PSE's XForce is one more bad dude......Dang that thing is fast.

I currently shoot a Hoyt Trykon or Vectrex and a Ross Cardiac. The sweetest shooting bow I think I have ever owned is a Mathews Q2, Awesome bow.

Tom, I just bought a Hoyt from Tommy at Gulf Coast and man i will tell you that by far is the most quiet, quickest, and smoothest drawn bow I have shot. I did alot of research before the purchase b/c I didnt want to make a costly mistake. The Mathews is good but I look at it like this...Hoyt has and will continuw to dominate All of the Outdoor Field Nationals as well as the I.B.O. World Cup. Mathews has wins but less than half of that that Hoyt has. Also Hoyt is leading the field with new technologies in Compound bows...nothing compares...Hands Down!

ive got the DXT and i love it. fast, smooth and very quiet! havent shot the new hoyts so i cant compare it. like said above... once youdecide to invest in one of these top of the line bows, it just boils down to personal preference.

I didn't know that there was another bow besides a Mathews! Hands down go with a mathews

Pretty even so far. Please keep the reviews coming. I shot the dxt first and it was sweet. Then I shot the katera today and it was sweet. I guess I need to shoot them one after the other. I have a better relationship with Stan at Mikes than I do with Tommy at Gulf Coast. This means I probably can get Stan to bend a little on price. He told me I could take the dxt demo home with me saturday night, but I didn't get back by there.

Tommy told me that he was already at rock bottom compared to Rick at Buck and Bass. Got to sell the parker first for some cash plus I got a Benelli 12 guage pump turkey gun that has been assembeld once and put back in the box. Never shot. I'm not a turkey hunter so look for it on in "for sale" thread section tonight.

Thanks for the input and please post your opinion if you haven't already. Thanks:bowdown

I have shot Mathews for 14 year's and love them. Hoyt make's a really good bow. My drawback on Hoyt's has always been the split limb's. I have never cared for them, or seen any sort of advantage. To me you are just doubling your chance of something going wrong. I think you will findmore individualopinion's in archery than anything else. Shoot what you like and are comfortable with.
