WANTED Used Bow

Unread postby Kraftd » Fri Jul 25, 2014 9:10 am

So, my wife has expressed interest in shooting a little bit as I get my two little girls going on it.

I'm looking for a used bow to see if she sticks with it. Low cost, nothing top of the line (under $300 for sure, preferably even lower than that). Probably bare bow, as I can fill in with rest/sights etc. I have laying around, but wouldn't turn down accessorized.

The problem I'm having is she's 5'10" with arms longer than that, and sskinny. So....what I'm really in need of is a bow with a 27-27.5" DL that can go down to 40 pounds, and even that is going to be tough for her getting started, so 30 wouldn't be a terrible idea. Anyone have anything like that, or suggestions? This is going to be a tough one used.

Thanks!

It's a little over price range, but sweet shooter that is highly, highly adjustable. If the wife doesn't like it the kids can use it for years to come. http://www.basspro.com/Diamond-Infinite ... 094225120/

Mission Craze or Mission Riot. Retail at $299-399 brand new. Great value in those two bows in my opinion. Both have adjustable draws from 19-30" and draw weights from 15-70lbs all in one bow.

Thanks for the quick responses guys. I think I probably will just go new with one of the highly adjustable bows. If she gets into it, I'll get her something new that fits in a year or two and stash the other one for the kids, if not, the kids can still use it in a couple of years and grow with it.

The Hoyt Ignite comes fully geared up for $299 according to the gal at my local shop. Anyone have any experience with this bow? Sounds like a good bet in this price range for what I'm looking for.
