Compound Bow Comparator

For those shooters demanding a hunting bow that is amazingly fast, the MR6 has a lot to offer. Although the weight of this bow is a little heavy, it has speed that is at the top of its class. Those in the market for a speed bow have come to terms with a more aggressive draw cycle, although the MR6 is not as rough as some might expect. With IBO speeds up to 353 feet per second, and tons of adjustability, the MR6 has the potential to fit most shooters interested in a speed rig. With all of the technology that comes standard with the McPherson series MR6, most shooters feel extremely confident with their decision to purchase. Read full review...

The Mathews Monster is a fast and aggressive bow with a stiff draw cycle. While its short valley is something many archers will have to get used to, the back wall is very solid. While this is a super fast bow, it does have a notable hump closer to the end of the draw cycle. Being a very fast and aggressive bow, the Monster is definitely not an all-around bow and, therefore, will not fit everyone. It is not the best choice for beginners or someone who only shot smooth single cam bows. Conversely, this rig is a good choice for those shooters, who like fast bows, don't mind aggressive draw cycle, and have a good form. Read full review...
