Either Kobeer or BJankowski used to shoot one I shot a few times. There are nice solid bows that were the result of bowtech, ross and quest merger, lawsuit etc.
They are very affordable and if you have to go new not a bad option, they are at a similar level to the diamond and mission bows.
Everyone will say go to a bow pro shop and shoot a few see if there is one you prefer over others and secondly buying used can get you in a top of the line bow at a new quest price.

I would just make sure you have a local shop with good customer service that carries Quest bows. I have never shot one, cuase I've never seen a LH one, but they look and feel nice.

Hey man I got a PSE Stinger which I used for my first bow and it has been great for me. I am actually selling it to fund a new project. But it has everything youll need plus more if you want to check it out....

The standard rule of thumb is to shoot as many bows as you can that fit your budget.
I don't know anything of the Quest bows, but if you'v'e shot that bow and like it then get it.
I've shot the Stinger and do think its a solid bow. Nieghbor picked one up for Christmas, and I am amazed at the speed and silence of the bow.
I've got a sprined left arm and right wrist, but once I've healed up I plan on shooting a few.

I did shoot one for a while but I didn't like it.

Great bow, but go shoot as many bows as you can.
