that's easy... since $$ is not an issue, go shoot them all and pick the one you like best without lookin at the price tag...

ones that would be on my short list to try out:

Bowtech General, Guardian, and Commander (maybe the airbornes depending on needs)
Mathews DXT and switchback XT
Hoyt Vectrix and katera
Martin Firecat Pro-X, Bengal, and Ridgeline
Ross Cardiac line
Bear Truth 2
Diamond Marquis and Black Ice
Gander Mt Guide Series TecHunter Elite (a diamond marquis with a different cam setup)
PSE X-Force line
High Country Iron Mace

that should get ya goin... shoot 'em all and pick one, they are all top notch bows... its all about personal preference...

Best advice is shoot them all and whichever one YOU like best take home.

Some I would want to include in my shooting would be

Elite GTO (if you can find one)

High Country Speed Force

Bowtech Airbornes

Mathews DXT

Ross Cardiac

PSE X-Force



Have fun
