I second what Grant said. Also look at Parkers. They dont get as much press as the other companies, but they do make great bows. Definitely dont go out and buy the cheapest thing you can find, but you dont want to spend $800 plus (as Grant and myself are doing) and end up not liking it or being forced out of it by something not under your control. Buy a quality setup in your price range and make sure it fits. If you have any questions about the quality of equipment, post it here and Grant and myself will jump right in and help (just dont listen to him if he starts talking about putting cow banders on ANYTHING!)
