Default New bow recommends.

Thinking about getting a new bow. I shoot a reflex excursion now. Love the bow shoots great and has held up. But i need. (want a new bow for some reason)
Whats do you recommend. I want a top of the line bow. SOmething 300+ fps the fast the better. Thinking a hoyt, mathews, bear or one of the other top brands. I am open to any of them. Thanks

hoyt is my brand of choice, hoyt new bows for 2010 are awsome, very fast, forgiving and very silent, but to be honest its hard to go wrong with any of the top bows on the market to day.

What hoyt would you recommend they all look so good not sure which one to get. I like hoyt they make the reflex. In fact hoyt is stamped on a few of the parts on mine.

Go to your local shop and shoot as many bows as you can, pick the one you like the best. Lots of good choices out there, you really cant go wrong with any brand.

The best bow in the world is - - - - - my bow.

Not because it's a Mathews, Hoyt, Bowtech or Bear, but because it's mine, it fits me, it's a shooter and I kill deer with it.

My point is simple, Tim. We can tell you what we like all day long, but it's not gonna really help you. You've gotta buy what you like, not what we like.

Thats what i figure you would say. What sucks is the only place with a good selection is gander. Or a 2 hour drive to cabelas and bass pro;. But hey a reason to drive to cabelas. Bye see yopu guys later.
Lol The local shop sells new bear guess i could start there. Maybe hit gander.
GOt time planing on buying one this spring so no need to hurry/
