You say 'another', what have you got now and why are you looking for a different one?
(Just re-read your post, or do you mean you had one and got rid of it? In which case what was it?)
(Just re-re-read your post and notice you have a Samwha AFB )

I shoot a Ragim. Its an italian manufacturer and it cost me about 125 quid 3 years ago. Its been a good bow for me and ive gained medals at a few comps with it.
Another good bow manufacturer in that price range is Falco. Hes from Estonia but i have been told that his bows will be available over here soon.
If you want to pay a bit more for a bow (well quite a bit more actually) check out an Andy Soars bow. A true master of his craft. Ive been promised one for my birthday this year

I've also got a Ragim, I like it. I originally bought it because it looked good. Its my first (and the only one I've shot) AFB. It had a little bit of handshock at first but a bit of tuning sorted that. I've heard alot of good things said about the Falco bows too.
