Hello again,

As far as bows go, when I recently purchased my Martin Prowler SE ($350), I did so because it was a mid-priced bow that I thought offered good value. Another bow I considered was the PSE Thunderbolt ($300). I could not find the Thunderbolt in my draw weight so I was not able to give it a try but I understand it too offers alot of bow for the money.

You mentioned teaching your sons to shoot. I' ve read in magazines about a bow called the Genesis. This bow is offered by several companies. Its virtues are, as I understand it, that it grows with the child. Two children with different draw lengths and weights can use the same bow.

Good Luck
