SchuLace Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I have been thinking about getting a bow for about a year now. I kept changing my mind on what I wanted, what I wanted to spend, etc. I decided about 2 months ago that I was going to wait until spring to buy one. I have a good friend who works in the Bow department at my local Scheels and I have been working with him quite a bit on different bows and what not. Well, a week ago I was sitting in class and he texted me and told me he had a bow for me. It is a Mathews Ovation and was his personal bow. He bought it new in '05 and used it for a couple years before he got a couple new bows. He has had it sitting around for a while and decided to sell it. $350 is what it cost me which is pretty cheap from what i have been looking around at. It came with a hard case, sight, rest, quiver and a couple arrows. I need to wait until my next paycheck to get a target, release, and a few more arrows. I am pretty excited to get out and shoot it. I have to take the Bow Hunter Education course next spring before I can get out and try to take a couple animals. Just thought I would share it with everyone. Sorry the picture isn't the greatest, I had to use my phone to take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
