You 1st need to decide if you want a single or 2 cam bow. If you want a single cam bow you'll prob be looking at the Diamond line.
if you want a good deal on a used bow check out archerytalk.com's used section. Diamond made a Marquise for a few years that was and extremely smooth bow with half decent speeds. They no longer make them but I have seen some very good deals on those and the Black Ice bows.
The binary cam bows are a different animal if you havent shot them before. Its a pretty big adjustment getting used to a much smaller valley if you are used to a high let off single cam.
It was the first year allegience. They changed the cams next year to fix the weak cam issues and bad limbs. The rash of bad limbs was amazing. I am shocked that bowtech was able to keep the lid on that garbage can. My hats off to em.
I was shocked when my bowtech liberty started having limb issue. They were not known to do that. I really liked that liberty and hunted with it for 4 years. Kinda a dog on speed, but I killed I bet 15 deer with it.
I am so over binary cams. I had a few. Loved the idea at first. But bowtech had such troubles with lean and limbs. Out of the 5 binary cam bows I had, the only one that dead straight cams was the 07 commander. That bow was awesome. Should have never sold it.
I have since understood why they went with the split buss cable on the destroyer. Looking back, there was nothing wrong with split cable design. Sure, it was difficult to time properly. Sure it took fancy lasers and all to align. But you could make a bow have zero cam lean at full draw or split the differce at rest and full draw.
