Default Need help buying a bow

I have spend a lot of time on the internet reading about different bows.
Every bow's description makes it seem as if it is the best bow ever made.

My biggest problem is the price .. I only have +- $350 for the bow, so 99% of all Mathews bows are out of the question.

The area I live in only has two archery stores and both have very limited stock, if i was able to hold every bow i am considering and maybe shoot and arrow or two with them then I would have no problem but I am not in the position to do that.

The bows I have been considering is the :

Reflex Excursion
PSE Triton 2004
Fred Bear Vapor 300
Alpine VX Series 2004


out of these 4 the only one in stock is the Fred bear and it feels great in my hands.

I have a 29' draw and I want a bow weight of 60 - 70 pounds.
I will use it for hunting and 3D shooting.

Out of these 4 bows what would you recommend is the better of these bows ? or is there something else on the market in the same price class as these bows that is much better ??

Now I know everybody says the right bow is the bow that feels right for you, but like I said there is not that many bows i can hold in my hands, I will most probably have to oder the bow off the internet, so i need all the advice I can get in making a decision, especially a decision over what make is better.
If that is to difficult to answer then just compare these 4 bows I have mentioned.


Thanks
