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.

RE: help with a bow
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.

RE: help with a bow
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 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.

RE: help with a bow
You have some interesting opinions, Commander.Hey, I'm a hunter, scouting is just life.What's tht Indiana boy think's best?
Are you in the states now? If so I think you should look at the Dartons.
