I purchased a new bow this year. Ide shoot them all side by side and make a decision on what feels the best to ya. I got a 'bear strike' rth this year, good bow so far, shoots similar to my friends hoyt. Seen the "bear charge' for 399 shoots about the same. Like mohunter said, what feels right is what you need to go with. The let off on the bear is nice, and @60lb draw it sends carbon arrows screaming
