So I'm bit in the arse with bows recently. Never owned one and don't know where to start other than knowing my draw length (29") and preferred weight (60-70). I'll mainly be shooting into foam, but might get into a little hunting later on after I get established.

Oh gracious OB, bless me with thy recommendations.

I've shot the more expensive Bow Techs and Mathews and I don't see that much of a difference from the $700 PSE I bought.

Go to Bass Pro/Cabelas/Bowie and shoot a few and see what you like. They can find one that fits you good.

Also, there are several good used ones available on eBay and sites like Louisiana Sportsman.
