Default OK...ITS TIME FOR ME TO BUY ONE...

Alright guys...I've narrowed down my decision to these 3 bows. I'll be making this purchase between now 9/16/08 and 9/20/08. I like all 3 of these bows alot. If you you had to make a choice which one would you buy? I went to Dick's Sporting Goods yesterday and like the way the Bear feels. The PSE is good too as well as the Reflex. Decisions, decisions, decisions. Can you help a fellow/future bowhunter out????[&:]

I also like Bear Bows, looking for one to be my next bow as well.

Out of those three I would say the Reflex. They're made by Hoyt and one of the trademarks is durability. You can beat the living snot out of those bows and they will still shoot great.

I have a Reflex and a Bear, can't go wrong with either in my opinion.

The mathews that your say your outshooting and the reflex is quieter, must be cause whoever is shooting the mathews is a terrible shot or beginner and if ,you say the reflex is quieter, It is because you are hearing what you want to hear.They had the decibal test done between bows and the reflex did'nt even make the top 40!

Ok Reflex guys, I just helped a guy at work out, he was in a money pinch.

I bought a Reflex Bighorn Intruder 60-70 lb off him, in perfect shape..I won't tell ya what I paid but just say, it was a great deal.

What do I got and what's it worth in a trade or on Ebay?
