First off, I'd just like to see that you are a lucky bastard. I'm going to move to Alaska some day just so I can hunt brown bears without having to pay $16,000 to do so. But I've had a PSE for 2 years now and that is one durable bow. I haven't had to do anything to it except for sight it in and it has worked perfectly.

Just shot a new Hoyt Trykon, I was amazed. It is the smoothiest bow I have ever shot. I currently have a PSE but will soon be changing to the Hoyt. PSE is a good bow but if you can afford it go with a Hoyt.

RE: new to bowhunting need help w/ bow
you're not the first person to say that! This will be my first hunting season here and first on the agenda is spring black bear. So far Hoyt, Browning, PSE and others have been reccommended. I guess personal preferance will prevail. I think I'll hit up Sportsmans Warehouse this weekend and spend all day test firing. Keep suggestions coming though.
