Shot a 70# black 5 the other day, very consistent draw cycle but most will call it stiff. Grip felt nice in my hand and it did have some kick and shock on the release, but it would never be noticeable with it fully dressed. Regardless of whichever bow you pick you'll need a press to get them to tune correctly. Yokes on the Hoyt make it a lot easier, but in some rare cases even those cams need shimmed. If you know what you're getting into with a binary cam system, you will be completely satisfied with your B5 but for it to truly shoot as good as it can, you're going to have to shim it at some point. A lot of it has to do with what you're coming from in your previous bow. I think the B5 will outrun the Hoyt but only barely. If I had to spend the money to spend, I would pick the one you think feels the best and looks cooler, like said previously, everything else is a wash.
