Have owned both, both great bows. Shot the Bison in my avatar with a Robertson. I no longer own one but have 5 Schafers on the rack if that tells you anything.

I own both, love them both.
BUT...I am the guy who prefers a heavier, meaty bow. When drawing and having to hold, which I often do while waiting for an animal to step out from behind brush...the extra mass helps to keep me stable. But I am confident going into battle with either.

Only you know the answer.  Schafer is top quality but a very heavy, big riser and shorter limbs.  Robertson is mid size, normal mass weight riser and limbs a little narrower.  I have owned both and prefer the Robertson Fatal Styke.  Nice grip and a little faster IMO.  Robertson is also less expensive and shorter lead time.  Cant go wrong with either.
