You can get a used flagship bow from any company you want for in the $4-500 range..2008s at that. Just look around...figure out which bow you want, and watch classifieds like on AT like a hawk....I think AT is far and away the cheapest way to buy a bow..Some of those guys just give em away practically, lol.
Ill be looking for a used 2009 Hoyt Alphamax this spring/summer...if the right price arises, it is mine.

A used top of the line bow of the past...
For example, find something like a 2007 for a good price, thats what I would do if I had 500 to put into a bow....
As far as what bow would I go for? Well last spring, I did this very thing, I bought a used 2007 Bowtech Allegiance, shoots awesome, I'll likeley not a have a new for quite a while....

Bear Archery is the way to go...go to their website and look at the different models. The Instinct, Truth and Element are good bows. The truth 2 in my opinion is the best but is a little more then $500

Fred Bear Done Deal. The only difference from the Truth 2 is the strings are not Winners Choice. Smooth draw, lightweight,no hand shock. A real nice inexpensive bow.
