When i get a new bow in about a year, should i get a darton or a bear i have chossen models from both, the darton AS100 and the Bear Lights out, the darton is 07 model, the bear is 08, also i like the bear showdown too also 08 model.

get what you like its all about feel and shoot ablity for you shoot lots of bows not just these two try them all and find the one that fits you better than a glove.

at your age, id get the one with the easiest, most adjustability, that still shot well for you.

Darton gets an excellant customer service rating from me. I'd buy one of there's. Can't say about the Bear line. Never tried to contact them.

Ive been a big fan of dartons for years ,trythem both , bear has some realy nice looking bows this year , and many like the way they shoot
