I highly suggest a good proshop to help start you out, you need to be fitted for draw length, and the advice and setup you get from a good proshop is priceless! You should be able to get started for for less than 600 bucks, infact with careful selection you should be able to get fully outfitted with a pretty good setup for around 400 or so. I don't live all that far from you, if you need some help and don't mind driving I could give you a hand. Either way I think you will like bowhunting it is addicting! If you would like some help just drop me an eimail, I will see what I can do.

TAKE YOUR KIDS HUNTING AND YOU WON'T BE HUNTING FOR YOUR KIDS
