I've recently gotten back into shooting my bow since recently moving, and I think it's about time for an upgrade. Right now, I have a Bear Outbreak (2011) I comfortably shoot 60lbs at 30" but can move up weight if I need to, but I would prefer to have a bow with a good range on it. I was curious if anyone has any thoughts on what to look into first. I know the new Mathew Lifts seem really nice but is it 2x the bow the new Bears are?

I shot a Fred Bear Truth 2 for 15ish years. I just upgraded to a Hoyt AX2. I shot the Hoyt, Matthew’s, PSE, and Elite. IMO the Hoyt was the best combination of speed and comfort. Not sure what your budget is, but go shoot all the new stuff and see what works for you.
