I think they are just fine. I picked up the Instinct last year. For the money, it really couldn't be beat. I think the prices have come up a little bit on the bows since then.
One of the bowhunting groups did a test on the top ranked bows when the Instinct was popular. They threw the Instinct in as a wild card. I think they tested 9 bows and the Instinct finished 3rd in total points. Not bad when they were comparing it to bows that cost over twice the price.
