"Is ther a major difference between those bows!"

About x-50?

I would buy any Martin bow again but can't help ya on this one!

Plus, check to see if the 'X' series really is a Martin bow.  I heard that they imported these to their specifications, but could be wrong.  All true Martin bows are handmade at their factory.  

On the other hand, if it's good enough to have the Martin name on it, it has to be good!

If I had a choice for a longbow, I would save a bit more and buy a used Vision, Viper or Savannah.

I agree with Bradd X-50 and about $100.00 I believe.

Seriously I have an X-150 and really love it. I was impressed with the construction quality, appearance, and it shoots better than I do. Get one. You won't be sorry.

I'd be willing to bet the grip on the X-200 will feel better.  Martin actually says that the X-200 is handmade in the USA,  but only mentions the 150 has "European craftsmanship".

I'd get the X-200 if I didn't already own a 1971 Damon Howatt Bandito that's just like the x-200.  It's a 58" instead of 60" but close enough!

If I rember right the X150 is built in Italy like the PSE Impala and Kudu bows along with a couple more of the imports ,the rest are hand built in Korea .Wath what you buy as far as your choices.
