Respectably,
BobCo19-65 I found out long ago if you're going to take up a new sport, get good equipment.
Yea, but until someone gets their "feet wet", it's hard to make decisions on what will actually work for someone. What works for one, may not work for another.
As long as the grip fits the hand correctly, and the bow does not stack excessivelyor have excessive hand shock, then a $100 bow could work as well as a $1,000 bow for a beginner. I wouldn't suggest using price as the determinant factor of what will work for someone.
Most bows will shoot consistantly, it is the shooter that will be inconsistant. A bow that will help the shooter shoot consistantly will be the one to buy. But how does a beginner know which one will help them shoot consistantly, they don't IMO.
And if I fail at my new sport with good equipment ? I know it wasn't the equipment that failed me
I wouldn't consider that to be a fact. A top end bow still could work for one, but not another.
