Default RE: 3 bows in mind , which to choose ?

The only trouble is that the Archery shop i visited 40 miles away only deals mainly with Bowtech and Hoyt and rip-off Britain ain't as cheap as America when it comes to buying Bows , for instance Bowtech Tribute 595pounds =$1190 , in America $699or the Hoyt Trykon 610pounds = $1220 , in America $719 . And as i don't know what i'm looking for in a bow really used is not really an option , thats why i'm looking for a good package deal . i have about $700 limit max . Suggestions if you can think of a better bow package than the Tomkat are welcome , as i plan to buy in the next 6 weeks .

thanks

I am not Greg, but since I do have a TomKat I thought I would answer your question.

This is my first Robin Hood. It shot it with my TomKat after having it only a few weeks. I do not group shoot anymore b/c of the amount of arrows and nocks that I have busted. In all honesty (not saying this b/c I have a TomKat), I think that the TomKat is one of the most over looked bows on the market. It is accurate, quite, and no hand schock. With a Sims S-coil on it, it feels like you are shooting one of the high-end BowTechs that are 2x the price. I have a short draw and am still getting almost 300fps out of this bow.

Bailsuk, you'll be plenty pleased with the Tomkat's ability to group arrows: Let's put it this way, it can group better than I can
