New to archery.... you know what I'm going to ask!

1

If you don’t already know from the title, I want to know what the best entry level bow is.

Now, you’re going to say that they’re subjective, etc and you can’t tell.me the best one for me. I know.

What I want to know is this: assuming my accessories are all under $150 total, what can I get for about $900? So the bow would have to be under $750. Lower is better.

I want to hunt, I want to get a bow that will be able to grow with me (I’m an adult, but I mean it is able to have more accessories, and more draw weight as I progress). I absolutely DO NOT want to buy a bow that is going to be useless the next year because I can’t fit any new accessories, or something else.

I would like to get it from bass pro, since it’s the nearest place, but if I need to, I can find it somewhere else.

The best thing would be to go to the store and ask for someone to allow you to shoot some of your options. You’ll be able to proceed from there.

I haven’t been serious in archery for a few years so hopefully someone else will have a better answer for the best bow.

However, I would say to go cheap on the bow and plan to spend more for accessories. I’d much rather have a cheap bow with good arrows, a nice release, and especially a good sight, than having a premium bow with cheap accessories.

I’d go to Sportsman’s or Cabelas and check out a PSE or a Bear. They are good entry bows.

Thanks! I’ll definitely go in and talk to the guys there.

I would also enjoy bow fishing, so it might even be better to get something cheap and then a bowfishing rig for it…
Really depends on what they say. If the cheaper kits work, then it might be ok; if not then I’m way more interested in hunting than in fishing.
