The "best" bow is the one that fits you perfectly.....physically, mentally, and also fits your budget and hunting needs.
Well said Atlasman.
Make sure to get a bow that fits you properly....that is much more important than what brand it is. I would suggest going to a local (knowledgeable) proshop and get measured up. As far as good bows for the $, I would agree with PA...the PSE Nova is hard to beat. You can get the complete bow kit for around $200.
