New bows?

Anyone looking or buying a new bow this year, if so what make and model? I would like to hear your reasons for picking the bow you did. I will probably shoot my Mathews Q2XL one more year due to this neck surgery and knowing I can shoot it well. Then I'll start looking next spring to update.

i just bought a new Fred bear truth for under $400 dollars. that thing moves. granted my old PSE was my boss's from like 1980. I bought it because it got reviewed as the best bow for the money. i was curious in the guardian though. any one shoot it/own it?

I plan on buying a crossbow in the very near future. Since I have had surgery on my shoulder it has become almost impossible to use my compound now. But when I sell it I will look at the Stryker.

have you tried lowering the poundage on your compound .try a lower weight a 40lb bow will kill a deer
