I've never experienced a bow hunt, but am curious it looks truely awesome. Anyone know what someone might typically spend to get introductory equipment? I'm clueless, i've always just used my .22 and 870 for all hunting, but bow seems tempting
XI forget the model. I could actually shoot groups with it. My first bow was a no name that I had to epoxy and c clamp the upper limb before i could shoot it....real safe I know.
Hoyt MT Sport with the 200 limbs was the first bow for me, but I quickly switch to a faster Hoyt havoc with the 2000 limbs. I am currently shopping for another bow. It did not take long for me to really want the flatter, faster arrow flight you get out of the better high performance equipment.
First bow was an Indian. No let off, all plastic. First time I shot the bow the string blew up in my face. Left a nice welt across my cheek. I shot it for two years after much needed repairs.
My first bow was about a 11 year ago model pearson, whatever that would be. it was bright red and black because it was a target bow, my ole man painted it up camo for me, and i was hooked for life. I still remember the 5 foot arc at 40 yards ; )
It was a used Browning for $40. When I bought it, I didn't have a clue what I was getting. I hadn't ever shot a bow before I got it. I bought it in '93. It was made in the mid-1980's. It had wheels and 50% let-off. I shot it one season and then a limb pocket broke (talk about a close one). I did manage to take a doe with it before retiring it.
Answer my own question . After the home made willow bows bindertwine strings. Horse weed arrows ! Mom and dad picked up a Bear hunter out of the J.C. Penny catalog> Thanks mom and dad look what you have made (bow hunting junkie)
