Buy my extra bow I have on the archery sales boardand you will be ready to go, you will just need feild-points broadheads and a release. Just starting out it is better to just buy an old bow until you get the hang of it, once you do decide you want to really bowhunt, then you go out and spend the big bucs on a new bow!. What some forget to mention is you go out and buy a 450.00 to 650.00 bow you still cant hunt with it, you will need to go and spend another 250.00 to 350.00 to outfit it, sights, rest, stabilizer, quiver, arrows, release,and etc.
