preacherman Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Like a bow for yourself, take her and let her shoot some and see what fits and feels good to her. That is the best way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJL Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 If they would throw in a dozen arrows, I'd go ahead and make the "trade". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 My wife shoots a browning micro adrenaline. Nice little bow, and priced very reasonably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdhunter39 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 me and my sister went to the bass pro shops near me , and my sister was fitted with the pse hunter i believe it was called . they had her try out around 5 bows before the pse hunter , the thing i like most about the salesmen ( 2 helped us out ) that they were both archery hunters , and showed us pictures of deer that they killed . have her try out a few bows to see the pros and cons of each one , thats what they did for each bow she tried , and they both said that the pse hunter was perfect for her .

Will_in_cky25 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 i might take to the bass pro near here, maybe if the trades good enough i might leave the wife there.lol!!!!:D:D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I have just gotten a bow for my girlfriend. I got her an '08 Diamond Edge, with a 40-50 lb draw weight. She seems to like it; she says it's pretty compared to other bows we've looked at, it has a wide draw length range that can be changed without a bow press, and it's got 75% let-off compared to 65%. The bow came in a package which was good. It's $300 with a prong style rest or $330 with a hostage rest (similar to a whisker biscuit). - Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_in_cky25 Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 all good choices might i saybut i think im gonna go with the browning for the ol lady (kinda partial to a browning) thanks for the advice guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrow32 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hope she likes the bow. Would let her shoot it before you go and buy one. Might not like the feel of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WY Hunter Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 Sounds like you have a great problem to have, wish my wife would pester me about getting her a bow. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will_in_cky25 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 yeah it is a great problem to have, i got her into hunting three years ago and she is a natural at it. i took her to sportsmans warehouse last weekend and she fell in love whith the the micro midas so i got a new bowhunter to train. this should be easy i hope.

njbowhntr Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I just picked up a Hoyt Avenger for my fiance. The bow has several inches of draw length adjustment, which you do not need a press to adjust. I got her the 40-50lbs of draw. She feels it is very smooth with no heavy spots throughout the draw.
