Well now, this could get interesting.
Most people start planning and practicing much more than 2-3 months before the hunting season. But if you must, do as best you can to practice and BE CONSISTENT with your form. Be realistic with your accurate range. Being accurate with the bow, is the hardest thing for most people. Some take a VERY long time to be proficient. As far as good brands and stuff, its ALL individualized. Try to get to a shoot and try as many bows as you can. Have you ever even hunted, or bow hunted with compound gear before? |

I will add tho if you shoot a compound with a release then you need to get a bow thats 1" shorter draw than your compound plus dont get a real short bow to start with. |
RE: recurve bow
Good post rybo and va!
As far as brands for the first one. I'd suggest something used. Most likely you may not stay with the first bow you buy. If you can, get a good older Bear, Red Wing, Shakespear, etc. But be sure to ask about stress cracks that meet and limb twist. Strees cracks usually develop at the fade outs. Bob |
