mattys281 Report post Posted July 9, 2016 Yeah, they're more than a little crazy with it. PSE has some pretty nice models for cheaper than that and there's still Bear and Bowtech's Diamond line. Cabelas & Basspro have some decent shooters too with their store name on it, most of which I think are also made be Bowtech/Diamond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ready2hunt Report post Posted July 9, 2016 Have you seen the prices of top bows lately....$1000plus .... ouch. I guess that I'll wait another year or two. Bows have some of the highest depreciation rates. Just keep your eye on eBay and the classifieds and what is Top-of-the-line today will drop in price quite a bit. At least you'll save some money and could get a full set up for what the price of a bare bow is today. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest oneshot Report post Posted July 11, 2016 I have never understood the guys that get a NEW bow every year and I've asked them if they are buying NEW rifles/cars/homes/etc; every year to keep-up with changes??? ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was brand new but the model was already like 2 years old and The guys at Ross put it together for me for like 550.00 complete with those starter parts..If I would have bought the bow when it first came out I probably would have paid like 700 for just thh bare bow.

bojangles Report post Posted July 11, 2016 The prices are unfathomable. I bought a new pse on clearance last fall for like 500$. That was a big spend for po' folk like us. I hope it pays for itself in game meat real quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
