I guess I don't have to tell you what choices I made. Go and shoot all of them. The trigger is the most important to me. Forgiveness is the second most important to me(forgiveness to my screw ups). For hunting purposes they are all accurate enough to be sure. In my limited experience you have to choose which bow will serve your needs. Our respected Squirrelkilla is probably the most addicted arrow junkie but his bow hasn't put up with his punishment. I am an arrow junkie but not as bad. I think that if one is to shoot a few hundred arrows a month then I've made the right choice. On the other hand if you are going to shoot to hunt and otherwise just shoot to get ready to hunt then any decent bow will work. Excals are the best bow if you are going to shoot hundreds per month. Ten Points are fine machines but you may not need something that fancy but maybe you do. Hortons are great bows as are Great Lakes and the rest. Pick them up and check out how they feel in your hands and figure out for yourself which one has the best trigger. You've shot a rifle and you know how important balance and trigger qualities are so go and shoot them and figure it out yourself. I'll give you a head start. Start with the Excalibur Vixen the compare the rest to it.
I truly hope this helps. Hopefully the bow you pick will be around for as long as your wife.
