Wut the best bows i can get for a reasonable price, im 168lbs, 5'11", Draw length of 29.25" and like the draw weight around 64 but i can do 72lbs no problem. I've been lookin at bowtech, PSE and Browning any suggestions?

I think you should get a pse-typoon. I have had one for about 2 years and it has not had a problem yet.

Try them all, buy the one that fits you best and practice, practice, practice with it till you're proficientand you will swear it's the best bow money can buy and you can't understand why anybody wouldwant another brand.

Seriously, try all on your list and get the one that fits and shoots best for you. Theywill all do the job if you do yours...............especially the Browning.

The most important ingredient when buying a new bow is CONFIDENCE in your decision. Make sure whatever bow you like, try them all, you have confidence when you buy so you will have that each and everytime you take it out.

Monsterhunter0021.... You can cut an arrow any length you want, but that has nothing to do with DRAW LENGTH. Your shop just made the 1/2 inch rule all by themselves.
