A big, hearty "Welcome" to ya, WoodLover2!
Boy, you almost opened up a can of worms with that one, ya know? That's askin' for it in here, that query of yours! Thank God a few of the more settled-down, serener-type got to it first and told you to go see a pro shop before this became an "us" against "them" thread! (And don't think I didn't notice what bow Rob left out of his lineup, either! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>)
Seriously, thanks for sharing the background; it's always nice to know a little 'bout where one comes from. And be sure to check out all the bows at the shops; heck, you might like anything from a Browning (which I hear makes some of the most vibration-free bows on the market), to a Bowtech, or maybe another PSE, or a H-H-Hoyt (sorry, almost couldn't bring myself to say it <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>), or a Parker (check out their camo'd wheels and cams) to a Mathews or a Buckmaster G2.
