Thinking about getting a new rig for turkey

890 Views 10 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  Good351
I'm thinking about getting after the turkeys this spring, and am already looking for a new bow to replace my PSE Dakota. I don't have much money to spend ($300 max.) and was wondering what entry- and mid-level bows are available in this range.
I'm looking for something that would work for turkey and deer, so I guess it would need to shoot pretty flat but be in light enough for the long full-draw waiting time on turkeys.
What company and model should I be focusing on?
I can't afford the high-end stuff :( , but want good performance. Thanks for any advice

The Mathews FX is a great little hunting bow for the money. Parker also has some lower end bows that are made well as does Martin, Darton, PSE, Reflex and Bear/Jennings/Buckmasters. You should be able to find a nice bow for the price you want to spend. Here are some of the models that would work good for turkey & deer with out breaking the bank.

PSE Shark w/ Rimfire Cam - $499.00
Browning Mirage 1.5 - $499.00
PSE Typhoon Centerfire One Cam - $350.00
Alpine Impact X-Treme One Cam - $320.00
Ben Pearson Spoiler - somewhere around $350-400.00
Darton Storm - somewhere around $350-400.00
