santas comin...what bow???
« on: November 19, 2012, 09:13:26 PM »
In earlier posts, I have asked opinions between a recurve or long bow. I have decided on going with a recurve. I'm askin santa (my wife) for a recurve but I'm not sure what one. I would like her to stay under $300. Any suggestions? I have a compound and normally hunt with a hand gun. I intend to hunt elk with a bow next year. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Not a lot choices for under $300.  I've heard the Samick Sage is a decent bow for the price.  Another option would be a used custom bow...see some good used bows in the $350 - $400 price range.

G0 to archery talk or trad talk and keep an eye in the classifieds.  Tough to find a real good recurve in that price range, but it can be done.

The best bow is the one that feels the best in your hand.    :twocents:
