Anybody know what the mathews drenalin or bowtech guardiam are going for new? I am looking to get into bow hunting and might as well start at the top. and what should I outfit it with? What arrows and heads are you using? thanks for the help

I think between 700 and 800 bucks, probably depends on where you go. After it's all said and done, if you get new accessories, you're looking at around 1000 to 1200 bucks.

The Guardian is $749

No offense to those who shoot them,you could go half of that and get just as lethal a bow. Then, after deciding whether or not to stick with it, you can go big.

I purchased my Drenalin for $650.00 new at a local shop.

Sure u can go w/a cheaper bow, in case u won't like bowhunting, BUT ARE U KIDDING ME!? Not like bowhunting?! Come on man! U'll be hooked from the first day u go out. As with buying a cheaper rig, u can get a used orend of the yr top line for a few hundred less, & end up much happier in the end. Trust me, you'll only want to upgrade in a yr or 2 anyway. Do it right the first time. Or you can be like me, & spend the equivalent on cheaper bows & wait several yrs to finally get what u like. I bought my Tribute this past Jan. for $500, which normally goes for $700 brand new. Mine was an 06' model, & I simply love it. I haven't met anyone yet that hasn't been hooked once they do it. I even have gun huntn' buddies that took up archery, & said they like it more. Good luck on your new obsession!
