Considering moving up to one or the other. I've shot the dxt (Mikes Guns Shop) and the katera (Gulf Coast Outdoors). Both are awesome sweet and very quiet. Price is comparable, so...what do you think?

I have shot both, and currently own a Hoyt Trykon. They are both sweet bows, but at this point I think that it boils down to personal preference. I don't think that you can go wrong with either. Let us know what you decide.

I personally shoot Hoyt but what I say to you is shoot both and decide what fits you best. To me the Hoyt just shoots and feels better. But that is just me.

You might want to check around I have heard returns of the Drenalin and DXT are very high.  I have shot alot of Mathews bows and they have produced some great bows, but I know a few people that have gone back to a Switchback XT.  Honestly I think the best bow that Mathews has ever built is the Q2, by the way if anyone has one they want to get rid of I would like to talk to you about it. 

I would look around, and shoot some other bows.  PSE's XForce is one more bad dude......Dang that thing is fast. 

I currently shoot a Hoyt Trykon or Vectrex and a Ross Cardiac.  The sweetest shooting bow I think I have ever owned is a Mathews Q2, Awesome bow.

Tom, I just bought a Hoyt from Tommy at Gulf Coast and man i will tell you that by far is the most quiet, quickest, and smoothest drawn bow I have shot.  I did alot of research before the purchase b/c I didnt want to make a costly mistake.  The Mathews is good but I look at it like this...Hoyt has and will continuw to dominate All of the Outdoor Field Nationals as well as the I.B.O. World Cup.  Mathews has wins but less than half of that that Hoyt has.  Also Hoyt is leading the field with new technologies in Compound bows...nothing compares...Hands Down!

See ya out There!!!

ive got the DXT and i love it.  fast, smooth and very quiet!  havent shot the new hoyts so i cant compare it.  like said above...  once you decide to invest in one of these top of the line bows, it just boils down to personal preference.
