As previously stated I would go make sure to test out the top bows to see what you like best. We can go back and forth all day but it really boils down to what feels best to you. Personally, I wouldn't look past buying a bow from craigslist. You can find last years $1000 bow on craigslist for hundreds less with some accessories if you look around. Bows don't hold their value like guns that's for sure. Good luck in your choice!
