RE: Help with bow choices
Pinetree, please before you jump and buy a HC just check out this site and compare prices on bows in your range
www.huntersfriend.com
The news on HC hasn't been very good of late.

RE: Help with bow choices
you may want to consider the mathews sq2. Just discontinued this year and around my area are going for under 500. i love mine. If you need accessories (sights, quiver, new arrows ect) that obviously jacks the price up. Just a suggestion though. probably lots of good bows for under 500 out there. good luck

I would take a look at the new Martin line. I bought a Martin Prowler SE for $350 from Eders.com. This bow might be a little short for you with the SE limbs but, I bet you could find a better match with their magnum or straight limb designs. Martins are fine bows in my opinion.
Good luck.
Good luck.

RE: Help with bow choices
If the Pro shop in Panama City is a good one, I think you would be well served to let them set you up with a High Country. The new High Coutry bows I've seen, have been very impressive, especially if you want a very light weight bow. A good bow shop will take care of any problems you encounter (which is likely to be none). However, when you do need service, it sure is nice to have a local person who will take care of you immediately.

Well, the final decision hasn't been made as of yet.. I tried looking under the hunterfriend.com but couldn't even find HCA listed on the comparsion charts... But I still as looking hard at it.. it is less than 4lbs but not a carbon riser, which seems kinda strange to me anyhow...
