I bought my wife a bear apprentice III recently and I must say, for an entry level kids/women's bow, it shoots very well. I cranked it all the way up and all the way out and shot it quite a bit and was very impressed. The grip is very nice. Ordered it new off eBay and to my door step was $199 . She is enjoying archery so will step her up next year to a carbon rose and shelf the bear till my daughter (6) can pull it.
