Here is my plan of attack

I bought a complete set, PSE Fire Flite from Cabelas. It had a bow, sight, rest and quiver already set up. I didnt have to make any complicated decisions as a beginner) I was unsure whether to get 60# or 70# so i went light at 60#

The sight and rest (3 pin sight, 2 prong rest) were entry level, they did the job but there was plenty of room for improvement.

This year i upgraded my rest and sight.

Next year i will get a new bow and the PSE will be waiting for my son when he is ready.


The initial investment wasnt a lot but it gave me a chance to get my feet wet and decide if i really wanted to hunt with a bow.
