Thinking about getting a new rig for turkey

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

Here's my two cents: If you want to get serious about hunting turkeys get youself a quality pop-up blind, and use your current bow.

A short ATA bow is not "needed" to kill turkeys. My dad and I have taken many birds with our old Astro's at 48" ATA.
