Years ago I was in your situation. I went to my local archery shop and tried out the compound bows. I found that I liked the way Mathews bows fit me nicely and I felt very comfortable with it. Within a week or two somebody traded a Mathews bow in with arrows, broadheads, and quiver. I got the whole outfit for $400.

I'm still hunting with that set-up to this day. Shoots as good as the day I bought it.
