I got hurt pretty nasty in September of last year and my 80 pound compound is just too much for me to deal with after a back injury that is still not 100 percent.
I want a 55-60 pound compound with a good let off maybe 65 percent.I aint shooting for pope and young book so I don`t care,just want a good ,reliable,well built,good shooting bow to hunt with for next year when I get home.
You guys who are bowhunters give me some suggestions on what I should get.I am right handed btw so it should be an easy deal for me.:thumbs:
I grew up bowhunting and I miss it.I felt like crap because I missed last years season and missed it again being deployed over here.Next year damnit I am bowhunting!!:thumbs:

Gene,

When you get ready....let me know.  I get 20% off anything except firearms at the store, and if your not in a big hurry...  Employee shopping days(3-4 days every quarter) I get an additional 10% off[next employee buying period is Dec 2nd-4th].  And we have Diamond by Bowtech, Parker, Fred Bear, Whisper Creek, Guide Series(made by Diamond by Bowtech), and a few PSE products.

I shoot a Guide Series called the Hunter Extreme.  The axle to axle length is 31.75" with an 80% let-off.  Can make it any length with a module change(in .5" increments from 26.5-30.5") and they come in 50-60# and 60-70# draw weights.  You can PM me for prices of anything you want, as I'm not an advertiser and wouldn't want to upset anyone.

Don't forget to look at everything out there, there are a lot of very nice bows on the market.  In my humble opinion, BowTech is making some of the best bows on the market, followed very closely by Hoyt and Matthews(older models).  Where you get your bow isn't as important as the service you get from the people you buy them from.....I like to think I go beyond expectations in this area.
