Let me clarify this for some.
I own a Barnett Wildcat C6 and while its a good bow it has issues. Barnett is known for bad strings among other issues. I have to find a certain weight bolt/arrow to use with mine because anything below something like 450gr will blow the bow up. They are louder than others I have used and most, unless your spending $700 don't offer any string dampening systems. Ten Point has a lot more after market parts, string dampeners, better scopes and arrows for the money. My Barnett had maybe 30 shots the servings started coming apart and the cables were also twisted and needed work, cables went bad because Barnett didn't put the cable slide on the bow. Barnett makes nice stuff if you spend $400-500 and the cheaper like my Wildcat will work if you only hunt a few times out of the year. I purchased the Wildcat because it was on clearance and I needed a backup to my compound. Good bow and is accurate but loud, needs strings/cables after one season and special bolts and the scope is absolute crap. I also don't like Barnett quivers because you need to be He-man to get them off the bow.
My buddy purchased an SA sports Beowulf bow and the limbs cracked twice on him. He got 2 seasons out of it but still having limbs crack isn't cool. He also upgraded the scope because its scope is junk. Quiver connector broke after one season and needed replaced. After 2 sets of limbs cracking he purchased a $500 Ten Point which came with .001 straightness arrows, nice quiver, and a nice illuminated crosshair scope and also string dampeners. I have had deer at last light come within 30yards and couldn't tell what I was shooting at with these package scopes.
As far as buying a Parker bow I would stay away. I know guys who purchased Horton's because they were cheap and when it came time for parts they were screwed. Parker made good stuff but not having parts available turns me away.
I also second
@Laphroaig that you should find a place to shoot them. I don't like the feel of the wicked ridge stocks but the tenpoints fit like a glove. Only Barnett that fit me was the Wildcat C6.
