i wanna get started hunting
i wanna go bowhunting because i get to go during mating season
flatbow or composite?
I think composite refers to the material, flat bow is a type of bow
my recommendation, and disclaimer, I don't hunt, is a compount bow. They are relatively affordable, versatile,easy to set-up, and usually easier to learn on.
plus, they let you shoot a more powerful bow with more ease, because you have an initially heavy draw that lets off about 60-80% of the force at a certain point, making it easier to aim
okay
i think composite refers to the pully systems in the bow itself
not sure though
that's a compound, if im not mistaken. composite refers to the material the limbs (spring arms) or riser (block that holds limbs) are made from. some are wood, some are laminate (wood and resin), some are composite (reinforced polymer)
youre probably right
https://diamondarchery.com/bows/edge-sb-1-2/ this is a good one. I had one for a couple of weeks, but had to get rid of it. 10/10 I would and do want to buy it again.
this one can be adjusted from 10 to 70 pounds
it doesn't say the cost
most states only require you have 45+ pounds to take deer and other medium game
how much is it?
price is typically 400, but shop around, I picked mine up for 350
wow
thats not bad
you can get traditional or re-curve bows for 200, but they are not as versatile, so you have to buy one with the correct poundage from the get-go. if you've never shot a bow, you may find 20 pounds is difficult to get back. If your stronger, you can likely handle 35-40 out the gate, but you will likely want something stronger down the road. A compound lets you adjust that poundage whenever you want
good to know
it will be later down the road tho
trying to get a gaming laptop rn
mk. Just do your research. If you go to a bow shop, they will usually be happy to teach you everything you need to know, and even get you sized so that everything you try fits perfectly.
gl!
there is no reason bowhunting should be skipped
