RE: pse shooters
Seriously check out the Pearson PRIDE I think it's comparable if not quite! a bit better.
I shoot the Stingray - I love it but it's a beast on cables.
I also shoot the AR 34 Ram and a half. Veery nice bow but costs more than the Pearson.
I shot the mathews Legacy - Similar in weight to the Carrera but still the cost is more.
The new SQ32 by Bear might be worth looking into but I havn't a clue as to ow it shoots.
You might even look at the AR 37 (not Ram and a half) I hear it's a great bow.
Good luck hunting
Sorry 'bout your loss!
