I'll tell ya, at first I was skeptical about getting the Diamond Edge for him, but I gotta say, I'm very impressed with that bow and its flexability, and the thing is a SHOOTER for what it is... very quiet and very easy to manage for small hands...

shed33, at only 5yrs old, unless he's a seriously strong kid, get the 19/29lb limbs... when I first got the edge for my boy he was having a bit of a tough time at 30lbs and i backed it off to about 26-27, and he's a pretty damn strong and athletic kid, only 54lbs, but he stands about 53-54" tall (ya he's a bit skinny for his height)... he's worked his way up to 32lbs at the moment, I think he could pull 35 if he wanted to...
