Its good that your starting early, and waiting until next season to bowhunt. I like that, gives you plenty of time to practice, and learn! The best advice I can give is to try out a few. Get an idea of how different bows feel to you, how they shoot, quietness. And best bang for your buck. The package deals are nice to getting started. There are several good ones out to get you going like others have mentioned. Another off top of my head to look into, Pearson 440 quad kit, it even comes with carbon arrows. Another good starter bow especially made for new archers getting involved is the Buck bow line, made by Champion. They are a good quality bow at great prices to get you started. Lots of luck, buying your first bow is part of the fun!!!!

Check out the Parker packages available, nice bow. I hear the warranty if awesome too in the rare event you will need it. Martin also makes a good bow at a reasonable price. I am in the market also and will be getting either one of the parker packages or a martin. I like the Tracer Magnum. I will not purchase either until I have shot both.

Above all else, once the bow is purchased. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. And when you are done practicing, practice some more.


Good luck and happy hunting.

In my opinion, $300-$500 is not going to be "entry level". You usually get the entry level packages for about $200-$250. Check Cabelas for those. I really think archery has one thing over buying firearms that is extremely useful, try before you buy. If you have $500 to spend, you are not very limited, you should get what feels right. Hoyt, Darton, PSE, Bear, the list goes one. There will be quite a few bows/bow packages in the $500 range, try as many as you can. Also, if it isn't for this year, wait until after the holidays. In the spring you might be able to get a last years model of something for a pretty nice discount from local places or from a Cabelas sale catalog. Try to get it early though, so you can have enough practice under your belt to be comfortable.

Good luck, it's an awesome sport

My setup broadhead Quiver sights silencers cost the bows a psi the beast and it cost around 450$ but I know that you can buy a lot more expensive set ups then that so it all depends on how high quality of stuff you want to buy
