So today I went in and shot a few bows. Here are my notes on the bows that I shot today. I plan on shooting more before making my decision. I will say the Bowtech Reign 7 and the Prime Centergy made it through for consideration, the rest didn't.

Hoyt RX1 Turbo
- Harsh turn over into the valley
- Moderate hand shock
- Spongy back wall
- Light
- Nice grip

Prime Centergy Hybrid
- Nice draw cycle
- Zero hand shock
- Feels good in the hand
- SOLID back wall

Bowtech Realm
- Nice draw cycle
- Spongy back wall
- Starts off drawing really hard
- Zero hand shock

Bowtech Reign 7
- Very nice draw cycle
- Nice feel in the hand
- Zero hand shock
- Nice turn over into valley
- Softish back wall

PSE Evolve
- feels heavy
- Very wide grip
- Lots of hand shock
- VERY hard turn over into valley

These are just how the bows felt to me and they may feel different to you.

The bows I still want to shoot are:

Mathews Triax
Mathews Halon 32
Prime Logic
Prime Centergy
Elite Revol
Elite Ritual
Elite Option 7 (shot it a year ago and loved it)
Obsession Fixation 7
Obsession Hemorrhage DE
Xpedition XCURSION 7
If you see a pse decree hd ti somewhere on a shelf you should shoot that one.

I shot the bowtech realmx and was very impressed but after my prodigy experience i would be taking a few things with me before i bought a bowtech again. One would be the scale, two would be the chrony. If those checked out in the wheelhouse of what they said then i'd consider. The love affair with the decree hd ti though...it'll be awhile before i make a switch so maybe try one if you get a chance.

Tack driver, best drawing pse ever sold, perfect blend of target/hunt crossover type specs and it's strong, will meet ibo range. Peace. The only pse i've ever liked and i don't just like it, love this bow.
