I started out with a Jennings Whitetail 2. Is was as slow as molassis but I killed quite a few deer with it. On a long shot though the does would start fileing their hoofs waiting to duck the arrow.

i might be hunting with a Fred Bear Bruin from back in the day....im going to be mad if i have to.....dad said i cant buy a bow with my loan money from school....its been left over from last semester and they gave me more this semester.....and will give me more ever semester...its money to live on....all my bills are gas, insurance, phone bill, and minor food.....he says i dont buy a bow with it...i work and buy a bow.....no problem ill work all summer....but wont beable to buy a bow till LATE summer!!!!! UGH!!!! parents just dont understand...im going to try to tell him ill resave the money...and he KNOWS i will do it....im the only 18yr old i know that bought and paid for 2 vehicles myself and pay all there own bills......and im the only one i know paying for my own schooling sadly to say....but worst comes to worst im sure that bear bruin will stick a deer!! throw on some sights...rest...stabalizer...quiver..new string and cables...target arrows and release and ill be set....hope it will take all the new stuff!! im not going to buy crap because ill put it on the new bow when i get it if i have to take that route.....MAN that thing is BIG....im sure its slower then molassas on a cold winter day too..........but im bow hunting next year dang it!

I just sold a Fred Bear vapor 300. I killed many deer with it and loved the bow, but I had to sell it in order to buy my Outback before last season. I don't regret it one bit. The Fred Bear was a fine bow.

i used to hunt withthe same bow as Hunter06... andanother older bear they did just fine... as well as an old golden eagle i had that was very smooth and never let me down... but none the least i'm shooting Alpine Archery right now but i'm switching in the summer to bowtech probably

i hunt with a jennings, forked lighting

I won't get rid of mydatedClearwater Mag...fits me great and still shoots nice, I used it this year in late season on a whitetailbuck. Felt good to get the hunting cob-webs off of it. I do shoot it every year and still enjoy shooting it for practice. I bet I couldn't get 150.00 out of the bow..its worth wellmore than that as a back-up for hunting situations.
