Default NEED HUNTINGNETS HELP (BOW)

I am wondering which bow you think will be best for my situation.

I will be hunting Deer, & Turkey. Also I will have a budget of about $700, That will be it though. I really want to get a Package Bow also.

As of Now my pick is the Bear Archery Instinct. Also my friend has one and its the best feeling bow I have ever felt. I know that in the end I will prob end up going to basspro and test shooting each of these bows, but as for now I would like Huntingnets opinon!

All The Bows On The Poll Is Ones I Will Want To Look At, Any Other Suggestions Please Post!

REMEMBER I AM LOOKING AT PACKAGE BOWS! THANKS
Thanks

before i'd vote, why package bows??? seems to me that most people end up replacing most of the package stuff anyway unless you go to a shop that is willing to customize a package for you... are you specifically looking at big box stores??? why not check on ebay and see if you can find some hellacious deals on some closeouts as well...

I have done the math and package bows come out cheaper than buying it yourself, unless you go with lower priced bows. Yes i would rather try them out at a big box store than anywhere else. (Plus I Dont Ebay LOL)

I recently went through this process, and of the ones on your list, I shot the Justice and the Instinct (as well as several others not on your list). For what it's worth, I bought the Justice because it fit me best.

Here are my thoughts on the whole process: http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2304751&mpage=1&key=?

No sense re-writing it all here.

Shoot 'em all, buy the one you like. They're all worthy.

But only if you KNOW how to fit yourself and know that you'll be content with what you'd order.

Otherwise, go to a pro shop, tell them your budget and see what they can do.
