Need Help on Buying some gear!!

tmontgo1 · 06-16-2009, 05:40 PM

I just got my girlfriend a nice little Hoyt Intensity and now I need to get her the gear. I need to get a wrist release and some arrows that are good for 30-40 # draw. She's only about 5'1" so I guess I would need to get a youth release right. I don't know if you have any ideas Id much appreciate the help.

I would go to a proshop and have them set her up... The best thing to do is get everything fitting right for her and have a pro helping you never hurts.

I am 5'4'' and I think I am a 25 inch draw length. I pull back around 45# right now with my Hoyt Kobalt. I use the Fletcher 44 caliper release from Primos and its a pretty good one.

As for arrows, I shoot Victory V-force arrows. I think they are only 6.2 grains per inch or something like that. 100 grain field tips.

any tru-fire release would be a great choice. i personally think they make the best releases out there. and as for arrows any Easton arrows are great. i use Easton Full-metal Jackets 400s and im pulling back 52 pounds with 100 grain tips.

I just bought my girl a Scott Shark wrist release. It is a very good release. She had a Tru-Fire before but I did not like how the trigger adjusted.
