What would you recommend

No way to get a good answer to that question because what fits one person may not fit the next. Best thing you could do would be go to a bow shop that handles different brands and find the one that fits you best. There are no "bad" bows out there to my knowledge so it's just a matter of budget and personal preference. I'm a Mathews fan but like I said, you might not like them if you shoot one. Just find one you like and go hunting!

Bowslayer hit the nail on the head. You just gotta keep shooting bows til you narrow it down to the 2 or 3 you REALLY LIKE, then go back and seriously shoot those. I shot 13 bows it came down to my Destroyer 350 and a Z7. I just liked the speed, quietness, and no hand shock of the destroyer better. I was anal about it too...I had charts for each bow I shot, notes and the whole 9 yards. when you're gonna pay that kinda money though it pays to research well.

How much is the destroyer

This is what I would do.

Find a shop that you can shoot a dual cam speed bow like the bowtech insanity, a very shootable dual cam like an elite and a single cam like Mathews/mission..

Redneck booda carries all three of those.

X2 what every one else said and dont know what your budget is but by used. yu can save alot of money and get a good bow alot cheeper.

bare bow it was around 850 when I bought it...Have about 1400 in it though

They dont make the destroyer anymore it was replaced by the insanity. They run anywhere from 900-1k bare, depending on where you get it.

They re-released the Destroyer( left over inventory is what most are saying). Price is still about $800.

I have a destroyer 350 ill sell bare bow for 500 probably only been shot 150 times or so.

Z7 Extreme

Shoot as many as you can and get the one that feels best to you.

Do you currently have a bow?

Me?

I have two. My hunting bow is a '09 Hoyt Alphamax 32(one of the best bows I have ever shot). My target/hunting bow is a '12 Athens Exceed300.

TXTwister34, I live in Tyler also and would adivse you to check out On Target in Canton or Rednek Booda of Kearns for your new bow purchase. I use both and am pleased with the customer service of each.

Chital stop reccomending bows that you have never shot before since you dont know anything about how they are before, during, and after the shot.

I've got one set up sweet, ready to hunt, that I will sell you. And I have shot it and killed a few critters with it.

No Texas Twister, trying to understand where he is coming from to make possible suggestions on where to go.

love my helim tactical
