RE: Some Newbie Questions
Again welcome to bowhunting :
1. I' d say a Wisker Biscuit and Carolina Archery makes a spray that will eliminate any potential problems with freezing.
2. Sights- I' d say the Trophy Ridge starting out but I would not shoot a micro for hunting(too small). I shoot an Impact Cosmic and love it . I have found a 1 pin set up to be the easiest over all , but I would not start with one .
3. Draw weight - either one . I' d probably go with 60-70 if your going to be able to shoot a lot between now and season to get your archery muscles built up(which is different from being strong). If you go with 50-60 ,with your 27 " draw, if I was you I' d take a serious look at the new Bowtechs for the power (And I' m a Mathews guy).
4.Nothing wrong with a short ATA bow(32 " or less to me) ,but make sure it has at least a 7.5" brace height . If you go with something 34 " -38" you could get by with a little shorter BH .
Good Luck !!
