How good of a deal did I pass up?
I was at this auction and there was this PSE compound bow in this hard case. It had 12 arrows with field tips and the name was a PSE Deer Hunter. Of ocurse I have heard of PSE, but never the Deer Hunter model. Anyways it was at $90 and I bid $95. The next guy bid $100 and that's what he got it for. It looked like a really nice set up in great condition. I don't really need it so that is why I didn't go any higher. Can anyone give a ball park $$$ what this might be worth?

might have been worth couple hundred depending on the time of year, older model, my buddy had one a few years back. sounds like it was definitely worth all of a hundred and then some if it was fully loaded with hard case.

Yeah, I did want to go higher but the wife was hitting me saying you don't need another bow. The case and the 12 arrows themselves were worth over $100. The guy that bought it though I think was willing to go at least a couple hundred.

No, you didn't pass up a good deal. You passed up a mediocre bow at best. It's an 80's technology wheel bow that still uses steel cables and tear drop bow strings and has a blazing fast IBO speed of about 260-ish fps.
I wouldn't have bid $50, much less $100.

I had one and loved it at the time.
It doesn't compare to the newer bows at all.
