My daughter (no pics) is a freshman in HS and enjoy’s archery. She has been using a youth bow but I need to get her something better. I don’t know much about archery but from my limited understanding she needs to hit a target from 15 meters for competition. Please recommend a bow for her. She is using a 8-13 pound youth bow. What size bow works for a HS girl? I’m going to start using a bow to spend more time with her, what’s a good adult beginners bow? Thank you

Look at the Diamond Edge 320 RAK bow package by Bowtech. The draw weight adjusts from 7lbs to 70lbs with one allen wrench. The draw length is adjustable from 15-31 inches. Price $400

My daughter started shooting in middle school and was in the bow tech mentioned above. This is a very good beginner bow with plenty of adjustment for growth. She’s a senior this year and we moved her into an Elite Energy 35 a few years ago.

Bought my son the Diamond Infinite Edge several years ago. It is able to grow with the kid.

Draw length from 15-31” and 5-70lbs pull.

Bought my son the Bear Cruzer and it has functioned at a high level with no issues.

Won't go wrong with either one, the Bear and Diamond would both be a great starter bow.

Elite Ember. Pretty impressive adjustability.

My daughter has been in 4-h archery for 4 years now. She has went to state 3 years in a row and was 8 in the state last year. In here age group. I have bought about 3 bows, upgrading each time. Started with a bear cruzer. good all around bow dont have the reach when it gets to be 30 meters. Second was a PSE FEVER.. Awesome little bow. She still has this one and uses it for hunting. Now we have here new PSE CARBON STEALTH SD ...WOW awesome bow! She is 14 and her draw is 23 with 40 lbs 90% let off. 305 fps on her target bow. 27" front balancer and 12" back balancer. If your daughter is in it for the long haul Don't do like me and waist a lot of money on cheaper bows upgrading each time. If she stays in it do it right the first time. I promise you it will be cheaper in the long run.
