Default RE: Just looking to start out bow hunting...

Welcome to the forums!

You have come to the right place. I think that once you give bowhunting a shot you will not look back. Trust me.

Your best bet would be to go to your local hunting shop and ask them about the different kinds of bows and their advantages/disadvantages. There you will be able to shoot some and get an idea of what fits you better. Some bows allow you to adjust the drawlength yourself. They can measure your drawlength at the shop and figure that out for you. A way to estimate your drawlength is to measure your wingspan and divide that number by 2.5.

Well, I hope you find what you are looking for. Again, welcome to the site.
