I want to begin bow hunting, but I don't know anything about what bow will give me the most "bang" for the buck. I have about 200-350$ to spend. What is the best "starter bow". I don't mind useing any type of bow as long as it will kill a deer.
do you want a bow that is readytohunt for 350$ ? you will behard pressed to find a decent bow for that amount, new bow that is. plenty of used ones out there for that $

I don't know where you're at, but if you're close to a cabela's store, the PSE FireFlight 33 is a pretty decent starter bow with everything that comes with it (including some arrows) that you can usually find on sale for 280 or so. The Bear Instincts are excellent bows too for the price (around 400 for the bow last time I checked). If you have any bowshops that you trust close by go ask them about used bows, they'll have lots of people coming in to buy new bows who are probably looking at getting rid of thier old ones. I picked up a 1 year old BowTech Extreme VFT a few years ago for $350.
