Starting Recurve?
Hey,
I've got a quick question. I have been into archery for awhile now and i have a compound bow that i shoot instinctive with my fingers. Its an old bow and i can outshoot my friends with their 800 dollar mathews and hoyt. I thought I would take it a step further and get me a recurve. I don't have a lot of money to be spending on one, but does anybody know of a good, used recurve i could find somewhere, like ebayor something? I'm looking to get arround 50# of pull. Any suggestions? I really appreciate your help,
Take Care,
Mark

When does your season start? Although you already are a shooter, you might be pushing it to try and find a bow, get it set up, shoot in, arrows matched, etc, and be ready for the season.

Though I agree with c903, you will know if you can shoot well enough to hunt...6 out of 6 broadheads in a foam plate will do it. If not, you can still get em next year.
I just got a Martin X-200 fot $230.00 and I am very pleased, shoot one and see for yourself...
