I am purchasing a new bow and have it narrowed down to the PSE Dreamseason DNA, Bear Motive 6, Bowtech Insanity CPX or the Rytera Alien XT. I want something that will allow me to shoot a heavier arrow and give me more kinetic energy at impact without sacrificing too much range. I'm nervous not having the benefit of buying at a shop though. The problem is the price is hard to beat online.

I have several times. 2 new ones and probably 10-15 used ones. Never ever had any issues.

Do you know how to setup your own bow? Do you know your correct draw weight and draw length? If you can answer yes to all 3 questions, then don't fret it. I'm still shooting the same bow I bought in 2004 off ebay.

I bought my Insanity off Archerytalk last may. it was basically brand new so I didnt worry too much about the cams or anything but when I got it, I did take it and have it looked at by a pro. you can get some great deals. Shipping is the main problem with people. make sure you have them ship it correctly and spend a few dollars more to ensure that it happens. I had the person shipping mine put it in a new bow case and and then put the bow case in a box that fit the bow case. came to me as if it had flown in checked baggage. Shoots lights out as long as I do my part.

Ordered a Martin bow last year... Sent my info for set up, received it, pulled it out of the box and made zero adjusted. They set it up and sighted at 10, 20, and 30 yds and it was dead on. Got it here

I purchased a Diamond Archery Outlaw bow package from Cabela's (awesome bow!) and took it to the Bass Pro in Destin and they set it up for free. They sell Diamonds. The Bow tech there knows his stuff! I buy my arrows from them so it's good for BP as well.

Go to ebay my friend. You may have to wait, but if you constantly check it you can get bows for really good prices. Bought my heli-m brand new from a guy for $500. That was bare bow though, if you're wanting a package the other sites mentioned are good too. Whatever floats your boat really....good luck
