Having recently returned to Archery after 14 years, I headed for Perris with a fixed budget (I was lucky as I had more)
I e mailed them first with six risers that I'd like to try out. The basis of the six were budget and looks. I then spent ALL DAY with a patient Derek who helped me by setting up all six with the same limbs for the correct poundage etc. In truth my heart was set on the Inno but when shooting at their shop the Hoyt Nexus felt much better for me, so have a few bows in mind and leave plenty of time to try them out if you can. I really regret the day I sold my Yamaha and took up golf
I then went back and bought a compound for field shooting
Good luck with your choices and make a day of it
