Never shot a Lynx but being a Toelke, I'd bet that it's very, very good. That said, my Firefly is the one bow I've held onto because it's the standard that I test other bows against for smoothness, lack of handshock, and quietness.

NBK just said it right....the Firefly is smooth, and oh so quiet...but it's also incredibly powerful....it will REALLY shoot heavy arrows hard...
One other thing...when you draw the Firefly you will look twice at the poundage marked on it...cause they're that smooth....

Never shot a Firefly, but own the Lynx. The best bow I have owned thus far... Very quiet and shoots where I am looking.

I have never shot the Toelke Lynx. I have shot their one piece recurve. Very well made and shot good. I do own 3 Firefly longbow and have had several more. My go to is the Firefly. I think you cold do no wrong with either but I have a long history with the Firefly and it would get my recommendation.

My son-in-law owns a Firefly. I'm lefty. It's a righty. Yep. NBK nailed it. Although when I draw it right handed it I can still feel that it is butter smooth with even weight distribution while drawing back. It really snaps an arrow downrange. He has yet to shoot the carbon limbs he has for it. I'll bet they're super fast.
Maybe he'll jump in and offer an opinion on it.

I (the son in law) can say the Firefly is a sweet shooting bow. While I don't have a lot of experience or any chrono numbers to throw at you I can say this is an awesome bow. I got this bow from a fellow Trad Ganger (Wally Dye) because he found out I was new to the sport and a Marine. He was an old Navy guy and downsizing his bow collection. So when I got off active duty and back to the Old North State there it was, a wicked awesome bow for the noob. Two sets of limbs and a few arrows, a mess of broadheads and few strings I couldn't get used too (I gotta give fast flight a try). Anyways after actually realizing what a kind gesture this man had done I exchanged some emails with him and after owning sixty or so bows he thinned his herd to two. The Firefly was one of them. I think that says a lot about a bow.
