Hey guys, I am looking at getting back into shooting a bow. I have been out of it for a number of years now and have lost touch with what is what. What brand of bow and which accessories do you guys shoot and/or recommend. Looking to buy fairly soon as to be practiced up by hunting season this year
What’s your price range? I hae a bear encounter and it works fine as a first bow. got it last summer. In fact it was a field and stream top pick for under $400 bows. My only recommendation there is get it naked. The sight is terrible. I replaced the sight with a truglo and the stab with a 8" x-factor. I really like th bass pro tonic or toxik bow. Looks like a Matthews for half the price and has great reviews.
Plenty of good ones on consignment over at Atlantic game and tackle in mt. P. go talk to steve and will help you find what you’re looking for.

Thanks man guess a trip to mt.p is in my future
I always reccomend a Mission bow. It’s made by Mathews just without all the bells and whistles. I have the maniac and I love it. Also, you can put Mathews accessories on it such as the harmonic stabilizers, drop arrow rests, etc

Steve at atlantic game and tackle is the man, he will get you setup right. As for brand preferance, shoot as many different bows as you can and buy what feels the best. There isnt a thing cheap about bowhunting now either so go big or go home! oh, and just remember, Bowtech, Bowtech, Bowtech, and you’ll be alright!

There are many many great bows out there now days,And IMO the best one for your money is which everone you find that feels best to you!Buying what someone tells you is best and having to deal with something uncomfortable-frustrating!Go shoot all of them and then decide.Buying what feels best for YOU is priceless.
all of todays bows are great…Just as they said, get one you can shoot and you enjoy shooting…
Oh and just for salty… mathews, mathews, mathews
