[QUOTE="Specializedjon, post: 5032455, member: 20193"] You just opened up a "Ford vs. Chevy"...."Coke vs. Pepsi" debate. haha. My advise. Go to your local bow shop and shoot several. Don't pay attention to the name on the bow, but how it feels to YOU. You might be surprised that the one you like isn't the fancy, $1000 bow. Just my $.02. Hoyt, Mathews, PSE, Elite....and so on are all great options but you'll pay for the name, which has a lot of engineering behind their bows. I shot a $350 PSE for years before I switched to my Mathews No-Cam. Absolutely nothing wrong with my PSE, but I became a better bow hunter and wanted to step up my gear. Again, your local bow shop will be my suggestion. Don't let them sway you in one direction. Not all of them have a good selection, they'll push their brand obviously. Plan on about $1200 if you want to buy ONE bow that'll be dialed in for the next 10+ years. Good luck in your search. [/QUOTE]
