RE: need a new bow - what to choose...?
For the money, you GOTTA look at the Reflex line. Like my ole buddy mauser said, the Highlander is an excellent choice. Dollar for dollar, it is simply the BEST bow in production right now. Another excellent choice would be the Reflex Excursion. Not quite as fast or as nice, but about 100 bucks less expensive.
Bottom line, set your price and stick w/ it. Then, shoot EVERY bow in that range you can get your hands on. The one you want will litterally jump out at you.
