Wow, that's a tough one. I don't really think I've shot enough of either to make a truly educated choice. I have quite a few customs and I've had quite a few older production bows. I like the old Bears, Pearsons, Wing Archery.
A Hoyt Dorado was my first "traditional" bow. And to this day I still love to shoot it. It has a grip that I was accustomed to from compound shooting for twenty years. It's pretty light in the hand for an aluminum riser, the limbs can be changed out for different weights, and they are dang near indestructible....mine was put to the test many times in my learning process. The bow itself has been flung at the target quite a few times when the arrow didn't find it's mark lol.
The Hoyt Dorado gets my vote. They are forgiving once you half-way know what you are doing and tough as nails when you don't.
