For $600 you can get a really good bow. Best recomendation I can give you is go to a local archery shop and shoot as many as you can and see which one fits you best.

If your on a budget get the martin bengal. You can get one all setup with accessories for $600 or so.

I shoot a Fred Bear and I love it... My whole setup was under $350 and it is just as deadly as my buddys Hoyt that cost him almost double what mine did.

Don't forget to check out used rigs. My local pawnshop has 10-20 on any given day. Some top end models for 1/3 of their original price.

Check out this bow - the Pearson Venom H2. Its a hybrid cam bow with a short ata, large brace height, and tons of speed (318 IBO). Its a Pearson specialty bow that this guy sells on ebay. I've read lots of reviews from people who've bought this bow from this guy and are absolutely in love with it. Its short, fast, and forgiving. I'm seriously considering one for myself. Lots of good feedback on archerytalk about the Venom H2.

Darton Maurader reviewed real high on outdoor lifes yearly bow review finished 3rd behind the matthews switchback and hoyt trykon cost is about $550 bucks. I shot it at the local pro shop worth every cent very little hand shock,quiet and seemed very forgiving I highly recommend but shoot as many as you can every body has different tastes. Good luck in your search
