Ugh. The whole gear arms race of rifles, optics, packs, bows, and all other ancillary equipment is just crazy. Lots of folks blow good money on equiping themselves with the latest and greatest and most times were just as well off with the gear we already own. The reality is your old bow will easily kill game just fine with some new arrows, heads, and a new string job.

Maybe a new release or a arrow rest may be a good addition, but other than that your probably GTG. One doesn't need to be a cool kid and have all the carbon fiber archery eq, or shoot 6.5 Creedmoore or 257 Roberts. More often than not the equipment we already have will work just fine. The money we save is better spent on getting a new pair of footwear and going out and discovering new places and adventures.

Good luck and I hope you score.
