    Shot my firstbow yesterday

    Killing time I happened upon a bow shop
    Go in and just look around
    Started with crossbow
    Not for me
    Then got on a couple Matthews
    I'm a 30 length and pull 70lbs

    What's a good used bow to start out with?

    Of course the shop had some recommendations but they are all new and I'm not ready to drop $1500 on a kit that I'm not 100% sold will get used enough.

    Any links for rigs in the classifieds?

    I liked the xa-D rest

    LoL I'll have to hide the bow from my uncles
    They think bows are for "sissys"
    But they think a lot of dumb stuff that I dont agree with but thats another topic...

      For me its hard to say whats a good bow for a particular person. IMO it all comes down to what feels right. I would go back and ask to feel/draw several in the range you are willing to spend ( assuming they sell used bows ). For me, when I draw the "right" one, I know. But thats just me, others just buy the one that is the "cool" bow, or popular or looks cool or whatever. Hopefully others will chime in with their bow purchasing process.

        Does not compute. What in the world do they normally do? Drop out of the tree and choke it to death?

                No. I came here looking for a hog hunt.
                Then stayed to make ten posts so I could but a $100 truck gun

                Then got drawn into the outrageous comments that were politically charged

                      I've got a Bear Whitetail I'll make you a deal on. Liberal draw. It's perfect for a newby.

                      I bought it new in 1972.
