You can't go wrong with the big companies
Bowtech
Mathews
Elite
I'm sure others will chime in soon.

I was looking at the Bowtech's . But it's hard to make up my mind . Also the bow shops usually dont carry too many left handers to test shoot .

Go over to Cinnamon Creek Ranch and shoot all the brands (except Mathews) if you live in the DFW area. Great folks and great shop. I also highly recommend Jerry at Rednek Booda Outdoors.
You may want to take a look at the Bowtech Assasain, really nice fast and quiet bow.

budget? There are a lot of good bows on the market now. It's mostly about draw force curves and aesthetics these days because they all perform well.

You are 2 hours from Ft. Worth and some really good bow shops.
Bowtech is a good place to start. Have a Diamond too. They are great bows.
But get out there and shoot some bows to see what you like best.
