Another vote for the Bowtech Tomkat here... SUGGESTED list is $599, so you can probably find one considerably cheaper -- and complete with some of Bowtech's top-of-the-line technology (binary cams) and the ability to interchange between the speed and smooth mods. Find a leftover 2007 (they didn't change anything on them) and you're REALLY talking about getting a great deal!

Speed up to 315 fps with an 8 1/2" brace height for under $600? It's one of the sleepers in the industry, and has a good solid base of supporters which include some pretty hard-core veteran hunters.
