I have almost outgrown my bow that I have shot for about 7 yrs. I am now 19 and 6'2" and want a fast bow that is still fairly forgiving with a midlength to long axle-axle distance. I shoot pretty heavy carbon arrows and do not want to use an overdraw and I shoot with a release and peep. I am looking for a good bow that is specifically designed for hunting, not target shooting. I was looking for a price range of probably about $300 or $350 at most unless there was something I really needed that was a little more. I hunt primarily for deer, but am starting on turkey and looking to go after some fairly large game such as bear. I have not really looked for bows in many years and am not really sure what the market is looking like. I was wondering if anyone out there has some good recommendations for a new bow. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Good Hunting.

My first thought after reading through part of your post was to suggest the Bowtech Pro 40 with any of the three cam options but then I got to the part where you posted your price range.
No biggie. My next suggestion when including price as a consideration would be the new Hoyt Ultramag. It is basically the 2004 version of the Magnatec with a new riser design. Axle to axle length, speed and price are all in the range you specified plus it has Hoyt's typical attention to detail and quality construction.

To specify what I meant before, I would greatly appreciate it if someone could give me an idea for a bow in my price range, but if you know of a bow that is well worth the extra money, by all means tell me about it. If it is that good of a bow I will gladly pay extra for it. I am looking for a bow that I can probably use for many many years, I am 19 and plan on having a lot of years, and for that kind of investment I would happily pay for a good bow. Thanks for the help so far.
