I don't think I've ever heard of Forge before...
I just looked them up and now I know that I've never heard of em before. They must be very small time / local and the PF 34 isn't a current run. Which I could tell ya more about it but I just don't know anything on them

I'm not familiar with them either, but here's a good place to start.
http://www.forgebow.com/contact.html
Get all the bow specs (axle to axle, and brace height), cam system, how draw lenth is changed, string/cable lenths, tune specs, etc, right from them. Welcome to archery, and this forum. Don't hesitate to ask any questions, if we can help we will.

Thanks
Thanks for all the reply. I do like the designs of the Forge bow and would consider it the first bow. I will be getting a Bowtech in the future but starting out right now. Please continue to send more feedbacks. Thanks

 to the forum and to the very diverse sport of archery. I do hope you're gonna do plenty of practicing before you go out hunting. I've always wondered..do folks buy a bow then shoot a little and deem themselves ready to go hunting? I do hope you're going to do lots of practice and become a pretty good shot before you go finding your dinner.

I plan to practice before I hit the field. I want to at least practice twice a week at the local archery range in Gander mtn. I also plan to visit a high fenced hog hunting ranch once I get better and confident.
