either Josh H or Gary G, know them both. I use to visit their Shreveport office location on Hawn Ave back in the mid/late 90’s when I shot Diamond bows. They were one of the first companies to machine a carbon fiber riser. The Widowmaker and the Marquis which had split limbs, hatchet cams, and weighed 2.7 lbs. Diamond machined risers and cams for quite a few companies.

Honestly any of the Bass Pro RTH packages at that price point are going to do whatever he wants them too.

How old of a PSE are we talking? If he is shooting it and enjoying it, I think your best bet is to stick with that.
I would recommend taking it to a good bow shop in the area to have them give it a look over. May new strings or cables.
The archeytalk.com classifieds can be your friend if looking for a used Mathews. That’s how I got mine. New flagship model from 3 years ago for $500. There are also some good Facebook groups selling bows you can check out.

Most reputable companies now make great bows. Just make sure you get one with a wide range of adjustability. I had a bear that only required an allen wrench to change draw length and poundage over a pretty wide range.
The bow I shoot now has only 10ish pounds of adjustment and requires a new cam module to change draw length.
