My question is what bow would be good for each of them? they areon the light side of the scale as far as their weight but they are strong. Any advice and input would be very appreciated(?) . Please help. I think this is a very good way for us tobond.
Obviously buying two of everything is going to run into some $$$ pretty fast.
I agree, look at bows that have adjustable draw lengths. They should be able to start with 50-60 pound draw weight, my sons all handled that weight easily when they were that age.
The PSE Brute NI runs just under $400 new. It's a nice bow for mid-teens, and adjusts from 25" to 30". At 4.5 pounds, it's not light, but there's a benefit to that for new shooters. By the time you add a sight, rest, stabilizer and peep you'll be over $500 and headed to $550. Tack on a dozen arrows and you're at $625 minimum. Times two.
Don't get any of the "youth" bows --- they'll be beyond those bows so fast, you won't believe it.
