if moneys not and issue, i'd take a hard look at mathews, hoyt, or bowtech. shoot as many different models as you can and decide which feels best to you. if u want a good hunting rig you cant really go wrong with these 3 companys

There is a bunch of ones out there. My advice to you is don't get caught up in all of the hype with certain bows out there. Find a local pro shop with a large selection of bows and go shoot a bunch of them and get what fits you the best. There is no such thing as a perfect bow. If there was everybody will have the same thing. What might be good for you mightbe bad for the next guy. Get what ever you can afford and what fits you the best.

Hoyt Vectrix! Check out any of the popular bowhunting forums and I promise, you'll be impressed by the rave reviews and the number of folks that are making the switch to this '07 Hoyt! It's the rig I plan on using in the Turkey woods this Spring!

Bowtech has a great warranty (lifetime) and in my experience great customer service. I'm not speaking for anyone else. I believe in their product because I've shot the Parker, Mathews, PSE, Hoyt's blah blah... It's the smoothest, quietest bows I've ever shot and hunted with. Anyway shoot as many as you can get your hands on. Todays equipment is so far advanced from 15yrs ago. Go for what works for you and you alone.

Shoot everything you can... One or 2 will really do it for you....
They are all good these days... And I do not personally think any one is that much better than the other.. regardless of the debates many have on this site... Shoota bunch and you'll know which one is for you.... I would certainly shoot Mathews, Bowtec, Hoyt, AR, and Ross if you can...

I'd have to say check as many as you can get your hand's on .
The top 3 are Hoyt ,Mathew's and BowTech ,but I'll tell ya there are alot of other good bow's on the market far greater than 15 yrs ago .
