azpackhorse Report post Posted May 9, 2007 I have a story almost identical to hunterdan's except I had an Antelope tag.....................and I didn't kill one. I was told that the limbs were cracking due to improper bow pressing, I love my Allegiance and would absolutely buy another one. I have a 30" draw, shooting a 389gr arrow @ 316-317 FPS and that's not a guess on speed I have chrono'd it a couple of times. It is very quiet also. Truthfully, I think that all of the big name bow manufactures all have a comparable product, it just comes down to the feel and personal preference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TREESTANDMAN Report post Posted May 10, 2007 Not too long ago I was shopping for a new bow and shot the Tribute, Hoyt Trykon, and Mathews Switchback. They all shot great but I liked the balance and grip of the Switchback so I went with that. I wouldn't even consider an Allegiance just because there have been quite a few archers experiencing cracked limbs. Yeah, putting it in a bowpress incorrectly may be part of the cause, but there is a little something more to that with the numbers of that specific model cracking. For that reason only I'd recommend the tribute. Or even better, a Mathews Switchback!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
