help with a bow
 

Hey all, i've been doing some research and came up some bows that I am interested in and i want to narrow it down.I have a price range of $500 and want my bow all set up ready to hunt. I am also left handed, small female with not alot of strength. Im looking for a good bow that will last me a long time. One that will be quiet and light, and easy to use.

The best out of this list really.


Parker contender XP

Hoyt Kobalt

Hoyt Trykon sport/Jr

Bear lights out

Bowtech equalizer

Diamond Edge

Pearson spoiler angle

Even If its worth me paying a tad more for a good bow i would do it. I would like to know the good bows, a list of the good ones that you guys would recommend for a lass like me. :D

I would suggest the reflex growler as you can buy the package deal (sight, quiver, rest)for $550 and it is made by hoyt. http://www.reflexbow.com/

Above all, go out and shoot all the bows you can and see what shoots the best for you.

Are reflex the best you can get for my budget? How much do they come in at?

I cannot try bows out here because there are no bow shops in my country.[&:]:(

I have been looking around for one here in Scotland but I cannot find any, unless you know of some?

:(

If I could I would try them out but I hate the whole situation. I really do like the look of the reflex growler though.

Is this good?

They set it up for you too. I dont have a clue about setting up bows or anything and neither does anyone i know.

Actually looking at that package that is a pretty good deal. You are getting a case, arrows, release, sight, quiver, practice and hunting tips.
Also, if you do get this package get the whisker biscuit because it is really user friendly. I sent you a pm too.

I'm not sure if it will fall in your budget, but there is No better short draw bow than the Bowtech Equalizer.

Funny.

I'm sure your aware your money spent here is a pretty good deal.

What's wrong with the Merlin and it does look like a hoyt. I also like their camo pattern.The new hoyts are not light weight.

Bows do have problems and you will be responsible for the shipping charges if they need returned.
