Thinking bout getting my GF a bow...
 
Well Me and my GF have been together now for 3 years and 4 months, Planning on gettin married after college and careers and all that good stuff, i know shes the one, so with that being said she wants to get into shooting bows, i thought maybe for Christmas this year getting her a bow...my element would be peerfect but its 60-70lbs. she needs a 50-60 would a 50-60 element be a good choice or what other cheap options do i have?

Puppy Love :)
Get married, then ask yourself :
"Self- do I realy want to spend anymore quality time with this woman"

Just kidding,
Been married 18 years - I have to ask if I can use "her" jon boat.

Something about a woman that enjoys the outdoors.

Ive always been told Browning make good girls bows. My cousins GF felt her Browning was more comfortable than all the other bows she shot before making a descision.

I got my girls bow on Ebay for $75. Parker Challenger... target blue/white. She loves it... shes totally hooked.

Just picked up a Hoyt Trykon Sport for her. Local shop had it for $350. I've seen it advertised online for as low as $300 (but you have to go by the shop since they cannot be sold via order).

Reb is fairly petite. Size 0/2 dress, and shes been pulling 38# on the target bow. Trykon Sport is a 40-50, plenty for hunting. She was the one that picked the bow out.

I'd definately get her in on the buying process... let her make up her own mind... she'll be happier that way.

I couldn't imagine shooting 3D without Reb there with me now... I was supposed to go to one this AM, but went to work instead since Reb had to drive a boat to Florida this weekend... no point in going without my shooting buddy!
