My wife shoots a Diamond Razor Edge, but I have a Bear Encounter. The Diamond is a sweet bow, but I like my Bear better (quieter, smoother (more expensive)). But that being said, its all about what fits you.

Thanks again everyone. I shot several and went with the PSE Stinger. It had everything I wanted. Now it's just time to get it dialed in and get to the woods. Season is almost over here.

Opinion, rather than advice

Once it gets set at the shop it will stay a that poundage and weight. It will be used to hunt deer only.
Thanks in advance.

Choose the rig that makes you feel comfortable. You will know the one once you pick it up. Not a single hunter can make that decision for you, nor can price. I shoot a Pearson 440 one from 1997, when I was looking price was not an issue, I handled Matthews etc. the Pearson was for me, just felt like it belonged. I'm still shooting it today, pass thru's are 90% plus and its rated at 309 mph.
