Thanks for the helpful advice. I will go to a proshop today. two other things I have questions about. One: There was a thread about this yesterday but i thought i would ask here as well. I am left eye dominant but right handed, i shoot guns left handed but have only tried a left handed bow once. I didn't feel great but I was wondering is it something i should look into. Second: crossbows are legal in virginia now. How do you guys feel about crossbows, is it cheating? It might help me get past my left eye dominance but i don't want to be a cheater in the eyes of my peers.
