longrifle1000,This is the time of year that alot of guys are trading in their bows on the "newest and greatest" bows,so contact your local "trusted"archery shop and let them know what you are looking for.I've seen,just in the past couple of days,an FX,a couple of Hoyts,and a bunch of PSE's,all under 325.00.Good Luck!!...Bob

My question is, what would be a good bow that does not cost a fortune?
Good luck with your choice and have fun looking.

Arthur, have you shot a Nitrous cam yet. I have the SlayR and the speed is incredible considering the ease of draw, especially for guys with the B cam. The Cougar Mag III is a good choice here. Only gives up 5fps to the SlayR (on paper) but costs about $160 less.
I have made the transition back to two cams after shooting single for about 7 years. Got tired of the cam lean snf sideways oscillation of the string. Makes bare shaft tunin galmost impossible. Not so with the two cams. And with the Nitrous the string actually passes through the center of the bow, not offset.
My SlayR is doing 293+ with a 3D setup. 280fps with hunting setup. 27.5" draw and 55lbs. Smoothly!!!!!!!!!!

They're in demand as far as I'm concerned. I'm really enthralled by Martin's Nitrous dual cams. Good speed and an easy draw force curve.
After the last single I had, I took a blood oath that I'll never buy another single cam bow.[:'(] And I'm not too impressed with the hybrids either. [&:]
two cam bows are being made yes, but are they in demand? no.

Well, i think i am going to wait until next January to buy my bow. I want to spend more money then i can right now. I just bought my wife her slug gun for this deer season, and i think the best thing to do is wait, and spend the money. I really like the bows from Bowtech. So i think i will do as much research between now and then, and make a educated purchase. Thanks for all your thoughts.
