I am huge into bowhunting.

You will miss the season this year because you won’t have enough time to get a bow setup, practice until your comfortable and be good to go in the two weeks that are left in the bow season.

With that said, I have an extra compound bow but it is perfect for you to get used to shooting with, then you can upgrade before the season to a better bow. I will sell it to you VERY cheap, comes with everything you need except arrows. You just need to be right handed.

Shoot me a PM with any questions you might have. You will have a million.

Dicks Sporting Goods, and trust me I shopped around. Went to all the local dealers and they wanted $400 for just the bare bow (i.e no sights, no rest, nothing).

This bow was on sale at Dicks for $400 and it came with everything, which is roughly about $200 in accessories. So, I got a $600 setup for $400.
