when it comes to getting a bow it is all about how it feels in your hands.....you need to try a bunch of different models, from different bow lines and then make a choice based on what feels the best in your hands.....take a look into the Ross bow line if you can find a dealer around.....I think they are makeing a good name for them selfs........high quality at a good price....most importantly go to a good pro-shop and have them get you meassured for the proper draw length....

Try to get to a shop were they will let you shoot the different bows, then make your decision.

I chose my bow going to a site called hunters friend and it tell you a bunch of stuff that would really help you choose your bow, I would highly recommend going to this site before you make a decsion on a bow that you want.

yea what he said:peace: there is a lot of bows out there to choose from,here are a few sites you can check out:
www.diamondarchery.com www.bowtech.com www.hoytusa.com and
www.mathewsinc.com. i dont really care for mathews though not becuase of the way they shoot(they shoot great) its becuase they come out with a new bow and after a couple of years they discontinue the model and its a pain to get parts for it if you need to. other than that there o.k. but anyway check them out it might help you to decide. good luck:decision: and if a pro shop wo'nt let you shoot there bow's go somewhere else becuase shooting or "test driveing" a bow is vital!!!
