Shot a Hoyt buffalo this past week for the first time, and they are truly sweet and easy shooting bows. Don't think you can go wrong there, although the ilf approach is a good one also.

String-follow wood or bamboo bow. Quietest one in the woods.

TwoTracks Longwalker. New price is in your wheelhouse! Chuck makes a great longbow. Give him a call!

Northern Mist Baraga or Whisper. Very forgiving and easy to match to a wider range of arrow spines than most flatbows (longbows). Also very forgiving on bad releases.

If you are anywhere near ********* Archery, go pay them a visit and shoot some of their in stock bows. I would recommend no more than 45-47#@ your draw length. An ILF riser with a set of ILF limbs may fill the bill for you.

Looks like you are 40-50 miles from *********, PA. John over at Trad Tech is a great guy and they will have a good selection of ILF bows and others. They have a really nice range as well.

I've shot with a couple guys there once when Blacky was there. We did a bunch of high speed filming. It was great.

Thanks for all of the suggestions! I will continue to play around with some of these and see what I can come up with.
