Thinking about a new bow

Post by MuleyFreak » Wed Jan 25, 2012 5:52 pm

Hey guys. I just sold my bow (PSE Nova) and I am looking into getting a new bow. What bow do you guys shoot and what would you recommend for an intermediate shooter. Heads up, I'm only 15 and am pretty limited by my budget ](*,) Thanks.

I love hoyt! very forgiving however some hoyt are noisy. so go to a proshop and shoot before you buy. that is the best advice i can give you.

Shoot a lot of bows in your price range & pick the best shooter

I like Hoyt or their little brother Reflex. Good bows for a little less. Diamond also makes some good bows. Right now you could probably pick up last years model for a good price.

I shoot a Mathews Z7. Love it. Shoots awesome and really smooth and easy to draw. A little on the heavy side compaired to most other bows tho but other then that you should look into one of the new lighter versions

I would look at the Mathews Mission line of bows. Reasonable prices for a great line of bows.

Good luck and happy shooting!!

I shoot a hoyt carbon element. Hoyt are a very great bow and a lot of mid price bows with the same cams as the element or the higher end ones. get to a shop and do so shooting choose the one you like the most
