Default New bow

I am thinking of getting a new bow. I am having a hard time choosing between the Alpine archery micro, the bowtech Black hawk 2, or the Mathews Mustang. If you have any suggestions please reply. ( any of the above or other bows you think are good ).[&:]

I really like my mathews, but if you think your going to grow some more, i wouldnt get one. I know on my legacy the cam is stationary, not sure on the mustang. The alpine micro is a good bow, but i always had problems with the limbs. We pressed two down at the store, and they both broke in the same spot! This was with caution taken also, so it wasnt carelessness. PSE makes some good bows also. Bowtechs are also right up there with mathews. Hoyt makes a couple packaget bows that are really good, and there not to expensive.
If it was me, id get the Mustang, but thats cause im a pretty die hard mathews fan. It hasnt let me down yet.

Whatever you do, make sure the bow fits you and it feels good to you when you shoot it. With 22 inches of draw length, try to get as much power with a bow that you can without sacraficing energy or comfort. Because of the limited power stroke, your going to have a handicap on the energy you can produce. Just make sure it feels comfortable, otherwise its no fun. And thats bad!
