Help with New Bow. Beginner
Hello, Ive been reading for quite awhile but havent posted. I am 37 years old and have decided to start bow hunting. I have many questions but will start with just a few
1. What brand bow? Money really isnt a concern, I just want the best quality, best shooting and user friendly bow possible. 2. Im left eye dominant and assume I need a left handed bow even though Im right handed. I tried shooting a right hander, but im not even close with my right eye. I shoot lefty with my .300 Win Mag Browing and consider myself a very good shot. That said, being my right arm is stronger than left, which bow will draw back the easiest and have the best left off...etc 3. Is it necessary to spend 800-1000 on a bow or can you get away with less. 4. I always think I need the best of the best, but am willing to listen to why I dont need the best. 5. Of the following bows, which would your choose given money is not a concern. Mathews, Hoyt, Parker, Bowtech, or PSE. 6. Does the new PSE (top of the line) have delaminating problems like I have been reading about. My bud just bought one and it drew back beautifully. I know, lots of questions, but looking for some input a rookie should consider and want to get the best possible bow. Thanks for any response. |

blue, as far as bows that you had listed i think imo they are all good. the best way for a new archer to really find out what fits and what he likes is a trip to the pro shop or two and start drawing and shooting a few. what i like in a bow you might hate. i shoot a hoyt redline viper and like you im left eye dominant but i shoot right handed with no problems there is just a learning curve to it and if you already dont have any shooting habits it wont take you long to pick it up. i shoot all my rifles left handed tho i never liked pulling back with my left arm so i learned on right handers and never gave it a second thought. price in a bow well i would hate to thnk what i have spent on bows and equipment but one thing i ahve learned is the more simple your setup the less troubles you will have. rest of it is just qaulity and yeah youll pay more but its worth it. a good pro shop (good one) will steer you clear of things to avoid and set you up with the good stuff. (rests, arrows etc....) one thing to remeber when looking for a bow is are you going to shoot fingers or release ? they both kill and it is a rather a personal choice but dont get a short axle to axle bow to shoot fingers but a GOOD pro shop will or should tell you this and steer you to the right bow.
i have never shot a pse i believe so i dont have any info on them. just remember all the bows you have listed are good choices and like i said what i like you might not so telling you a specific bow isnt a good idea. but what the hell ![]()
