Best bow for starter females
 

My gf shows interests in bow and i was wondering to gift her something light and not too costly, as i am not sure if she will enjoy it or not, i was looking at this what do you guys say Compound Bow?

Look up Issac Walton archery classes and see if you can get her in there. The are normally one night a week in September and October. Then she will learn more. My daughter is a 5'-4" and 130# and uses a Hoyt Ignite. It's kind of a large kid bow where they can grow to an adult with. Works really well for women with less strength to get into archery with. I am sure every manufacturer has a similar one. Very adjustable on draw length and draw weight. That is a compound bow.

On a crossbow lighter is probably better. Many smaller women have trouble handing guns steadily due to less arm strength. But many of those are going to be more than a compound bow.
