this is true..let me know when your looking for a bow I need to sell some of my 1yr old bows.

OK, good to know. I am wanting to switch back to bow hunting for elk in 2010 so I may be looking to buy a bow in the spring, but it depends on finances. I may end up putting it off for one more year.

One thing to think about when buying used from eBay..... I did that very thing several years ago to save money.  Last year, the week before the state championship, my coworker picked up my bow as I was pulling arrows.  He dry fired it.  I ended up replacing both limbs, cam, idler wheel, string, and cables.  I did it at his expense.  If it was new from the dealer it would have been covered under the lifetime warranty.  $400 worth of parts went onto my bow that I saved $200 by getting it off eBay.  Food for thought!

I want to thank everyone for there input on the what bow to choose, i went out and shot a couple different bows and i have found the bow for me. Going with hoyt maxxis 31 is feels so nice in my hand with now vibration or hand shock. Love the speed of this bow cant wait until i get it in my hands and really start putting some arrows through it.
