New Bow Lots of Learning

Well after 16 years of shooting my current Bear bow I decided it was time to upgrade. I looked at several bows and shot several. Being left handed I only had a handfull that I was able to shoot, but I handled several.

After all was said and done I bought a brand new Bowtech Destroyer 350. This bow was amazingly quiet, shock free, and held really well for me as a bare bow. I have never shot with a release before as I have always shot with fingers and it is quite a learning curve. Still have a couple of things to get for it and I am torn between two sights right now. I'll have it in two weeks and it seems like time is ticking slowly before I can pick it up and start enjoying it. Good luck to everyone this season.

Unless, you're opposed to having lots of stuff in your sight window. I'd get one with 5 pins. It should have wrapped or routed lengths of protected fiber optics for each pin. Then, if you can, get .029" pins for the top 3 and 0.019" pins for the bottom 2. My sight has a glo ring around it and I've got a blue g5 meta peep. The very visible combo allows me to center the sight window in the peep. I can see all my pins and gaps to know the trajectory of the arrow all the way to the target. I can tell if it's going to hit or clear any branchs or objects along the way.

...anyway that's a nice bow. I want one but I just got a new bow a couple years ago.
