Krisken and son PSE makes a nice youth bow as well as mathews and Hoyt I think that most manufacture's make youth model bows but when I was about 10 or 11 I myself got into 3-D shooting and started with a Pse that had a blue riser and black limbs. So from experince I like PSE bows. Good luck buddy and try not woop up on your dad too bad this spring. If you need any more help feel free to shoot me an e-mail I would be glad to help you out in anyway. [email protected]
