I use an old Oneida. It's a snappy arrow flinger but heavy as heck. The new Oneida Ospreys are much lighter but they're not cheap.

Browning makes a Barracuda for bowfishing. It's a lower poundage, fair priced compound. It does have some finger-pinch issues. Try one first, if you can.

AMS bowfishing makes the Fishhawk bow. It's about 330.00 fully rigged for bowfishing (reel, rest, etc.). It's a bit longer than the Barracuda so finger pinch is not such a problem.

In addition to Christine's list, if you would like to stay traditional there is always the PSE Kingfisher.



It has done good for me!

It can be found through the link in my signature.

Good luck on your choice
