go shoot the bows for your self and see what you think of them. All 3 make good bows, with their own special things, my opinon of them are, the bowtech aleagence is the fastest, but is slightly noisy, The switchback is slower, fairly qiut but to me has a off balance issue, i didnt care for they way it felt, the hoyt trykon is faster then the switchback, has better balance, and is alot quieter then the bowtec, i had a 05 alleagence, I didnt like it much and sold it to my buddy, he says its the best bow hes ever owned, well i say the best bow i ever owned was the hoyt trykon that i have now, ive also got a close freind that bought a switchback about 2 months ago, and he likes it and shoots it well, all 3 bows are great shooters, but offer a differnt feel, your better off going and shooting a few bows and find the one you want based on what you want it for. This is my opinon...........
