Default New Bow...So many choices

So i know there are lot of you out there who are Bowtech lovers. I'm considering picking up the Fred Bear Lights Out as a result of the good things I have heard for the price. Does Bowtech offer a bow of around the same price range that anyone would suggest. I have never owned a Bowtech but hear a lot of good things. Only issue is I'm a little tight on money. Thanks for any input.

First off, you cant go wrong with the Lights Out. I went to the shop yesterday and got fitted for one, now i cant wait for Christmas. Its very light weight and short for the tree stand. At 71lbs it was a breeze to pull back and very easy to hold steady at full draw. If the Lights Out isnt quite your cup of tea, Bowtechs Diamond line has a bow called The Rock. I didn't like it as much as the Lights Out, but that could just be me.

Yea I have talked to a few people that really like the Lights Out. I looked at one at my local bow shop and for the price I really think you cant beat it. I'll probably keep my eye set on that. Thanks!

If money is an issue, look at Redhead bows. If I'm not mistaken, Bowtech or Matthews, makes the bows for Bass Pro.
You can get one decked out for about 350-400 and they shoot just as well as the others!

For the price of the Bear you can buy the Bowtech riser. How's that?
