nutz4bucks Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Re: new bow Well if your just starting out buy a package deal Parker buckshot all setup for 300 give or take alittle but don't need to spend a fortune to get started then start saving pennies for the bow you really want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equalizer Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Re: new bow the parkers are a good starter bow. a good sight for the mony is a montana black gold sky light. the ripcord rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest forsythe04 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Re: new bow i think they element is a better bow than the parker buhunter/buckshot. for about the same price you would get better accessories and a better bow in performance. little to no recoil in the element and its a very smooth bow with a sold wall once you hit full draw..i suggest shooting them both, and you will notice the difference fairly quick.

wtnhunt Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Re: new bow PSE and Browning have some pretty decent bows in that price range. Looking at getting my wife the micro adrenaline from Browning. Local pro shop has the bow at $249. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkeygirl Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Re: new bow Reflex bows are decent bows also. They are made by hoyt, basically older Hoyt bows but good ones, and they come reonably priced with or without a package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest forsythe04 Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Re: new bow i like reflexe because i dont have to pop out modules to change draw lenghts which is nice and i was also surprised of the weight of the bow. it looks heavy until you pick it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
