RE: Buying New Bow
There are many a good bow on the market NHBuck. My best suggestion is go to a shop that sells them and see which one fits you well. Talk to some of the archery guys in the shop. Most, but unfortunately not all, will shoot straight with you and put you into one that fits your wallet and well as shooting preference.
I am not into saying one brand is better than the next. It all depends on your preference and amount you want to pay. Just go and try them out and see what fits you the best and see if they have some demo's on the floor you can shoot. A lot of places have their own ranges and let you try out some of the bows. That is my best reccomendation for you without saying this brand or that one....
