Whats a good bow set-up around 400.00??
How are parker bows? There was a rep. at BPS this past weekend and they seem to be a nice bow for the money, I was lookin at a ladies/youth bow that was ready to go for just over 300.00.
Id like to stay under 400. Im also looking for one myself.
Any other suggestions. Thanks!

D.i.c.k.s has a Bear Element on sale for $199. A Cobra Sidewinder will run you around $79. a WB for $39. Peep $12. Limb silencers $30, string silencers $15. Add tax and you are at $400

Checked D.i.c.k. 'sSporting Goods and can't find it. I have an Instinct but have been looking to also buy the Element.

Sold my old one on ebay for 165 this summer, it was still a darn good hunting bow!

there are alot of good bows for that kind of money. The bear bows look nice as well as the parker and probly some of the diamonds. I would take some of the other guys advice and but a used top of the line bow like a bowtech or mathews for $400. Ebay and archerytalk.com classifieds are good places to start

I have the Parker Wildfire XP and I love it so far. It is a great bow for the money and will do everything you need it to do. Also from what I have heard the customer service is good, but I dont have an experience to base that off of yet.

Although the advice and camaraderie are inferior, Archery Talk's classifieds have an incredible volume of used bows:
