I shoot the Switchback LD, with a 31" draw, I test shot the XT but with the short axle to axle bow the 30" just wasnt comfortable for me. I do love my LD, very smooth and comfortable and while not the fastest bow made still plenty fast for what I kill.

Brandon make sure you check on let-off restrictions as Idaho is only 65% to hunt.

I SHOOT A MATHEWS OUTBACK, THE PRECURSOR TO THE SWITCHBACK. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I SHOT EVERY BOW I COULD GET MY HANDS ON, AND THIS BOW IS BY FAR NICER TO SHOOT, FOR ME, THAN ANYTHING ELSE ON THE MARKET. I SHOT THE SWITCHBACK XT RECENTLY AND WHEN I REPLACE MY OUTBACK, IT WILL BE THE SWITCHBACK XT, GUARANTEED!!!

Brandon, Congrats on the new bow. I shoot an XT also but judging by your fps through the crono, your draw length must be a bit longer than mine. My bow is 27 1/2 in. draw and is shooting consistent 265 fps in hunting form.Thanks for the input on which quiver works better for you. The greatest source of noise on my bow is the quiver. I was leaning towards the one piece so I could take it off easier if needed, but now I may go the other way.
