MCH Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Re: gettin started If you're on a very tight budget, I'd purchase a used high end bow from your local pro shop. Make sure you shoot it first. And the pro shop should help you get everything set up and clue you in on what all you'll need: arrows, release, etc. Good luck, I think you made the right choice. Haven't played paintball but it'd be hard to beat 3-D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BowHunter81 Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Re: gettin started Yeah I would like to get into competitive shooting also, I live in VA and not sure of any events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Re: gettin started To research local 3-D events, go to either 3dshoots.com or archerytalk.com. On 3dshoots, you can enter your state and type of shoot you're looking for. On AT, just visit the forum that covers your region/state.
