Default Bows to get son started

I know this question was probably answered before, but I'm going to ask again anyway. I'm looking for suggested bows to get my 2 son's started in trad archery. They are 12 and 9, and have draw lengths of 23" and 22" respectively. I'm looking for something in the 20 to 25# range. Used is fine. I have already picked up an Internature 48" 25# @23" bow for my oldest son (found it on ebay for fairly cheap) and now my youngest son is wanting to start shooting trad. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Dave

I was looking to get my 7 year-old nephew a bow last year for his birthday. I couldn't find one used, but a local shop had a Martin Prodigy for $99. It's 48" and is available in 10-25# with a 24" draw. It's a great little bow.

I got my 8 and 9 year old an Internature also. The are about the same draw length as your sons (my boys are really big!). It was the best and cheapest bow I could find.

I got Internature bows for all three of my kids and my wife. They are pretty good bows for the price.
