Default Dreaming of a new bow

Been thinking about picking up a new bow to replace my older one from the 90’s I’ve been out of the no game for such a long time I’m not to up to date on what’s good and what’s not. I’m a bit of a fan of the bow tech brand but I figured maybe some fellow members could give a few recommendations on brands or models to try out. I’ll likley head up to jim bows in Calgary and have a look around. What’s the best bang for your buck these days and what should I steer clear of.

I just picked up a bow tech carbon icon with upgraded components. Had an older PSE before. I love this new bow setup. It shoots amazing. Got mine from Jimbows in calgary. They were great!

Go shoot them all. I shot a Mathews for years and this summer I decided on the G5 Prime but not the new Logic, it did not shoot nice at all. Go for the Centergy or Rize. Smooth, quiet and 85% let off, you won't be disappointed.

This might help you. I went through the process of buying a new bow this spring. I think it is post 1 and like 10 where i go into a deep discussion and my thoughts on the higher end bows that I shot. Remember, these are my opinions and not every bow will feel the same to every person
