Thanks to everyone for the help so far! I was all set to purchase but then following Trapper_daves advice, i looked on ebay at all the options. I never heard of the brand Samick before but saw numerous ones on ebay so I googled the name and they seem to get great reviews. Now LBR mentioed Samick again so I think I am going to go with one of them. My dad used to shoot recurve but that was 20 years ago, he's been a decent help but he's not sure how much technology has changed since then so he's a little hesitant giving advice over the phone. He'll be in state in late May and i hope to have my bow by then and I'll be able to have him give me pointers on form etc. I decided to go with the Samick Sage, LBR your recommendation led me to research it further and it sounds like exactly what Im looking for. Still debating if i should go with 40# or 45? I was leaning towards 40 but now i think i may want 45, not sure. I have a 29" draw so Im thinking a 40# would really shoot around 43#. I guess my holdup is I really have dreams of hunting with it this fall even though I don't think I'll be good enough.
I'm reading up about setup now, I have a few questions but I'll wait until I buy and decide on a weight. Thanks for the help so far everyone, I'll be placing an order tomorrow!
