I have a few friends that are shooting Parkers and they all swear by them. Thier customer service dept. is supposed to be second to none, which the Mathews owners won't be able to say. I was planning on getting one myself this coming Spring, but when my Browning took a dump on me during the second day of a 9 day bowhunting vacation, the local dealer didn't have the Ultra-lite on hand so I ended up getting a Bow-tech instead. Very happy with the bow and its fully warrenteed for the life of the bow or owner. Can't really beat that. I think Parker has a very similiar warranty. I don't believe you will be dissapointed at all in a Parker.
