Couestracker Report post Posted April 9, 2016 I said I'd treat myself to a new bow if I drew another archery bull tag, well I drew one! I know it's not so simple of a choice, but looking for input from you archers. So let's hear it guys, what should I get and why? Thanks in advance for your thoughts and input.

mattys281 Report post Posted April 9, 2016 Congrats on the elk tag! I've had the urge to buy a new one the last couple years, but just can't find one that makes deer deader than the one I'm shooting now, so I stick with old faithful. I think it's pretty hard to find a bad one anymore, there's so many good brands with good models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

creed Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Don't pick the bow, let the bow pick you. What he said. I have been shooting Hoyt for years and continued to buy them even after the later models didn't feel good to shoot. I just went into Ross and shot several and walked out with a Prime Rival. I doubt the quality is any better than any of the other top end bows but it felt good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bojangles Report post Posted April 10, 2016 well, i'm a budget guy, so..... everything i suggest is going to be less expensive. what are you shooting now? there's quite the variety of bows that will kill elk. we've gotten so picky, it almost sickens me sometimes. i think my next bow may be a stick bow. i haven't actually heard anybody say, "i hate my new bow" in a long time. i think it just boils down to, what makes you feel good inside.

Couestracker Report post Posted April 10, 2016 I have a Jennings bow I horse traded for, it's my first bow. Only killed javelina with it. Have hunted elk and turkeys with it, but no success. It's heavy and bulky. Thanks for all the suggestions guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
