Default On the market for a bow......help please

Ok guys, heres the deal. My old setup is a 1990 model Jennings carbon extreme. I have used this thing a long time and killed several deer with it but its ready to retire!!

My pocket cant afford alot of these high tech jobs out there, but I need a new setup before next bow season. I need to find the best LEFT handed bow combo for the least amount of money. Any suggestions?? Like I said, I really cant budget in very much, but I'm hoping if I find a setup now it'll last me 10 more years. I've been considering some of the cheaper models in cabellas. It doesnt have to be the fastest, just fast enough. Also, I would like to find one shorter mine now measures axle to axle 41" !!! Everything else in my arsenal is well up to date, its time my bow was too. Thanks for any suggestions

Antlergetter!

My only suggestion is to Check out e-bay and maybe you can pick up a fairly new used bow that has been fully rigged out for a decent price . It might even be harder to find a Lefty .

Ebay, archerytalk classifieds or the classifieds right here you should be able to pick a bow atleast 1 year old for a good price as there are a lot of guys who get new bows every year.

Look at the BowTech TomCat package!! The one I seen was $449.99 all set up and ready to shoot. It looks like a MightyMight with a bit longer limbs and it is very quiet with more than enough speed to do the deed

Happy bow,, hunting

If you want a brand new bow for a good price find a Martin dealer. We have a dealer here that is selling the 2004 Cougar III's for $425. I shot one just last week and was very pleased. If I had to pick a sleeper for 2004 that would be my pick!
