I was considering going down there tonight.
Do you recall any prices for what they had?

Wife thinks I should go with the Bengal Package they have at the Nock Point.  It is very tempting as the $$ is good and the bow is good all around.  I think in the long run, it is a good choice, just think I need to shoot it set-up and see if it still feels the same.

I recalled the commander is still up in the 600 range, but the others are around 450 - 500.  Not sure what your budget is.  These are top models from previous year.

I have no clue on this one, but just passing it along.

Thanks for everyone's help and advice.
After careful consdieration of funding, and options as well as what gives me the most for my money, I have made a choice.

After shooting several more bows today, the Bear Instinct, Bengal (again), Hoyt Vipertec, Diamond Marquis, and Mathews Switchback and SoloCam.  All Great bows in comparison to the older one I have.  Prices escalate along the list.

I went back to the Nock Point and shot the Bengal for a while and decided the more I shot, the more I liked so I bought a Bengal.
They are getting it set-up for me with components from my Hoyt.  I bought the full package with the Rhinehart Target and all components ready to shoot, but I had better stuff on my Hoyt, so they are swapping everything around for me.

Hopefully, I will still feel I made the right call after I have shot it a while................ :o
