Grey Fantom,
I just started bowhunting this past fall. I bought a used bow about this same time last year. I guess the main thing to look for is to make sure that it is a bow that can be setup properly for your draw length and draw weight. I had to take my bow into the proshop after I had bought it and have them do the adjustments to the draw length and draw weight. So far I havent had any problems with my bow. I guess what it comes down to is how much money your wanting to invest.

Good luck to ya,
Doug
