Default RE: new to bow hunting question

IMO you should get to a pro shop and have someone help you out, the most important thing for you to do is get a bow that fits you. Don't get to caught up in the speed issue ecspecially if you are just getting back into it, many of the faster bows out there are alot less forgiving to shoot ( not all but many), many deer are taken every year with long bows and recurves and they are generally much slower than even the slowest compounds. As far as bow brands go PSE and Fred Bear are both good bow makers but the best thing for you to do is go shoot as many different makes as you can and choose the one that feels the best, I would suggest taking a hard look at the Reflex line thay are a heck of bow and reasonably priced. I happen to own both split limb and solid limb bows and both work great for me so I really couldn't recommend one or the other, I think it really comes down to getting a bow whatever brand it might be that feels the best to you. I've never used the Hindsight but those who do seem to like it, I personally use a No-peep and love it.
