mraynor1 you probably bought a package and they did not tell ya. All of that stuff is what they make there money on. the beast is a good bow.
Hunter501 the fitzgerald is a good starter also there are a couple of nova's. PSE makes a few good low priced bows. but, since there is not a whole lot of the season left i would save up a little and get a higher quality bow like a HOYTE since you have already bow hunted before and have decided that it is your thing.
