and many of a company sells hunting products that are entry or intermediate in price level. I wouldn't have hunted if I didn't use lower tier products at times. Lower tier many times does not mean inadequate. Many times they are merely not the latest and the greatest, but more than adequate to harvest deer.

I stay in my price range I currently need. If a company only offers high end products, while nice, stay away from them.
Find the companies that offer an adequate bow in your price range. PSE and Bear have moderately priced bows. Besides, many of us are not going to be full time archers or make it a full time hobby.

Good luck in your choice.
