New Bowhunter Advice

[shoningram]

I would like to buy a beginner compound bow and would like ya'lls opinion on a brand,price,ect. I had an old Bear that was stolen earlier this year when some punk broke into my cabin and stole all my guns. Looking for something cheap.

PSE......

this is a solid choice . PSE's lower priced bows are by far the best I have shot . They have some serious quality in their lower priced bows .

Started out with a PSE nova package deal. Back in the day it was right at $200. Killed a good number of deer with that bow.

Bear has several priced between $400-$600 in the ready to hunt package meanining all you need to buy is arrows and points. I have shot several of them and I can assure you that even though the price is cheap by today's compound bow prices they are not a toy but a serious bow.

I would buy a Bear or Mission bow, good bows with price ranges for everyone, I've had major problems with PSE bows, don't like them what so ever, I shot Hoyt for years but ruptured my bicept muscle going on 2 years ago and its still giving me a fit. Going to buy a crossbow when i can afford to, good luck on finding your bow, go to a pro shop and shoot several and get the one you like and best fits you, good luck!

I think Mission makes a great entry level price compound bow.

I had a pse once and will never buy another one.The fletchings were hitting the cables,and the only way to fix it was turning the cable guard a little.It started eating cables like crazy where the two met.No joke,100 shots,and it was getting dangerous.I too would go with a Bear.

Bowtech makes Redhead bows for Bass Pro. Good bow without paying a lot for the name.

Everyone makes a good bow now days. Hard to go wrong with Bear, Matthews, Bowtech, Diamond PSE or any of the name brands for that matter.

If all I had was $350 and wanted a RAK package I would go with

If I had $ 500 to spend on a RAK it opens up a whole lot more possibilities.
