The first bow I shot was a Browning youth model, not sure what it was called exactly. The first bow I bought with my own money was a Browning Vapor.

I bought a Bear Instinct in 2005 I believe and I am still using it. Has done well for me but I think I might upgrade to a new Bear bow next year.

The first bow I bought with my own cash was a Martin Lynx Magnum I believe it was 1990 give or take a year. Used a Jenings lightning and a cheep recurve (don't recall make) prior to that.
