Cross Bows and Compound Bows

[MMM]

Here's a l site I get a lot of hunting supplies from. Not sure about crosbow, but lots of camo and blinds etc at real good prices.

Just curious, I checked and they do cary them. You could get into an x0bow a whole lot cheaper than I got into a compound.

Here is <font color="blue"> Cabelas site </font> to give you an idea of what is available and price ranges. They also have a lot of compound bows if you want to look at them also.

I have had work done on my compound bow, which I got from a friend, locally. In our larger regional area, there are two archery shops. Both have been really helpful.

I had a harder time finding a light recurve bow. I wanted the equivilant of a 22 rifle for plinking with my son, who has a 20lb youth recurve. It is light, but 64" tall(taller than him!). He wanted a long bow instead of compound, especially after Legolas and Lord of the Rings books(and movies...).

Anyways, the local guys didn't have a selection for what I wanted. They could order, but with this internet thing, I could too...

So, I used Lancaster Archery Supply. They have all types of archery stuff. I had some questions between a couple of bows; thier staff was very helpful over the phone.

thcri,

I also recommend going to the local archery shop. Great fun and you'll learn a lot. Personally, I think PSE is a great value on a premium bow, and they've been around a while. However, there are lots of good brands out there, with Matthews arguably being the best.

I suggest a single cam as someone else has already said. So much easier to keep in tune.

Careful, you might get another hobby and forget about your tractor! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Slydog,

Those kinds of stories really get my dander up! /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif I don't know what the H%*& that lady was thinking. You did the right thing talking to the local warden. The odds of running into two heartless SOB's in a row are pretty low, even in state government.
