[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 2698278, member: 11837"] Just more food for thought I did NOT read thru all reply's here so sorry is this is being restated, I am sorry! but typically for NEW bow shooters, when picking a bow, starting off with a bow with a longer brace height and an over all LONGER bow, (wheel to wheel) typically helps a new shooter learn to shoot better faster, there more forgiving bows, less effected by poor form as new shooters typically are not experienced in form or shootinga bow, , so starting out with a model bow that has more or less built in forgiveness is a BIG perk to have, as it can build confidence faster and that allows for one to want to do better and or shoot more often! Most modern Hunting bows and even target bow's m, are more focused on speed and other features, to help experienced bow shooters, not so forgiving to NEW comers to this sport! I would also recommend starting off with less poundage bows, all the more so since the OP states they are more interested for NOW< in target shooting! just cause a bow has less LB's or speed, doesn;t mean there not as accurate, and they are easier for most ALL new shooters to learn on when things are easier for them, they will see better results faster and best advice for a NEW shooter is learn GOOD form from the get go, its a lot easier to learn something right the first time, than trying to break bad habits later on!
