Default RE: Did I buy a complete piece of crap?

ORIGINAL: zachw

I bought a Parker bow not too long ago. It's the first bow I have ever owned and it was cheap to start out with. Im an avid rifle hunter and all I heard anyone talk about was "Man... if you ever kill one with a bow... youll never want to pick up that gun again." So.... I am givin it a try. It seems pretty accurate and pretty quiet. Does anyone have any opinion on Parker bows or know of any disadvantages?
Just about any compound one buys over 150 dollars can easily kill deer out to 30 yards. Its the indian behind the bow that insists on instant 2" groups at 40 yards that needs work. It can take several years to develop good form and consistent shooting.

If your hitting the vitals of a 3d target out to 30 yards, then its a good bow.
