I am wanting to get a new bow and am open to suggestions, I am looking for something under 600 dollars.

darton 600 or hoyt prohawk

The PSE Stinger G3 is set up and ready to fire for 400.00 I'll admit the accessories are not the best quality but it is a nice set up for the money. The bow is sound and very quite,easy to draw back at 65lbs.of draw weight for me. It has a few flaws which are easy to fix like the small set screws which set your draw length need some removable Loctite on them and the rubber band on the pep sight needs a better silicone type tube. There are good videos that show it's performance on youtube. There are several entry level or replacement bows with new technology on the market this is just one which I bought. Go test a few a see what fits you.Good shopping.

give the mission venture a look. Its a bit under $500 with no accessories. I bought one last year, been very happy with it.

Try looking on Craigs list? Bows are not cheep, and people generaly take good care of them.

+1 for Craigslist or similar. Not much can be 'wrong' with a bow and typically people tend to take good care of them. You can find a 2 or 3 yr old complete setup for that price range..just know what you're looking for and have a local pro shop check it out

If you do go with a used bow, see if the warranty is transferable. I bought a used bow a few years back, limb cracked last year, no warranty and no replacement limb available. Thats when I decided to buy a new bow with a lifetime repair/replace warranty, last bow I will ever have to buy.

Thanks for all the tips guys. I think i have decided on a Hoyt Rampage XT

that was my budget but decided for the little extra the bowtech assassin came home with me after shooting it..$639.99 price tag $40 wasnt gonna hold me back.. The rampage was on my list too. you may also check out the diamond outlaw...
