What kind of bow to get??

I haven't shot very many bows but I'm looking to buy one this year. I can only pull back about 40 lbs right now. Any advice on a good ladies bow?

Good seeing ya Julie! I know PSE makes a nice ladies/youth bow called the Choas but I have not heard from any one who has shot it. Autumn was in your shoes a couple years ago and went with a Diamond bow. There is not a single bow that is the best overall for every single person. It all comes down to which bow is the best for you. The only way to figure that out is to get out to a pro shop and shoot as many as you can get yours hands on. Thats what Autumn and I did and once you find the bow thats best for you, you will know it.

I believe the last time Darius and I were out hunting whitetails you told me you had one picked out already.

There are so many choices on bows now. The best thing for you to do is go to some shops and shoot a bunch of different bows. You will know the right bow for you when you feel it in your hands.

CHECK OUT MARTIN ARCHERY THEY HAVE A BOW FOR JUST ABOUT EVERYONE

Check out the mathews mission menace. It can be adjusted in draw length 20-32 and craw weight 17-50 and can be adjusted without a press. Great starter bow. I bought one for my wife and won't break the bank. $259

Your getting some great advice already!

Let us know what ya come up with.

That's the best bet, you will know when you pick up the right bow for you.

A lot of good bows out there. PSE makes a nice ladies bow as well as Diamond. My wife shoots a Hoyt at 45 pounds and loves it

Thanks so much everyone! I'm excited!! Yes Joe, I do have my eye on the Matthews Passion...but they are a bit pricey. I would still love to shoot one! I'll let ya'll know what I find! Thanks

Well, I shot a few and then I found a deal that I just couln't pass up. This bow had alot of recomendations and I have heard alot of good things about it... considering Darius has one and I hear about how awesome it is every day...I just got my first bow a '08 Bowtech General!!!! I can't wait til it comes in the mail and I get it set up to start flinging arrows!!

Congrats on the new bow! It sounds like it should be a good fit for you. Let us know how it works out for you.

Congrats on the new bow. BowTech makes great bows, got a Guardian myself, and I love the thing. Have fun shooting it.

Congrat's on the new bow.

Congrats Julie!!

I would say pse do to they do have a good ladys bow. But its really all on what you would want to shoot.

I started off cheap, I didn't know how addicting it would be. I bought a Bear Charge and for the money it is awesome!!!

You can one bare right now for around $225.00 new and $300.00 ready to hunt. It is a great starter bow IMO.

I can only comment on what I have shot and this is my first and current bow.
