What do you shoot

[WonkyWapiti]

I shoot a Parker Hunter Mag.  I picked it up 2 1/2 years ago when I wanted to start bowhunting.  I didn't want to spend a ton of money since I wasn't sure if I would enjoy bowhunting (I am now addicted).  I enjoy this bow but I have not used very many others to compare it to.

I'm looking for a good longbow...anyone know what i should expect to pay?  Anyone got one they will part with?

dont think anyone hunts with these old onieda bows anymore, but it works for me and the whole thing only costs me 5$. it only fires at bout 240fps so its pretty slow compared to most. the new ones however are way nice, but they cost round 700$. havnt killed with it yet, came close this year with a bull i called in but my friend had the beter shot. maybe late season ill be able to get a cow or somethin.

I just bought the new X-Force from PSE!

I used to shoot a 04 bowtech liberty up until 2 months and 5 days ago because of a broken limb (still waiting for replacements and counting the days) Now i shoot pse x force and am very happy with it hopefully if something happens to it they will replace parts in a timely manner.

 :hello:I shoot a J D Berry longbow

[LongTatLaw]

Im gonna buy either Michelle's bow or buckrub's bow this year,

anyone have personal experience with a test between the PSE X Force and the Bowtech Guardian.

Either way it will be a 80 lb set up.

Just looking for a good comparison. Not sure how fast the guardian is but know its let off is much better. I know both have decent brace heights. I know the Guardian is supposed to have very little hand shock...how is the X Force?


- Ive seen the videos for xforce online but just trying to decide if the hand shock and let-off are too much of a factor.

Love the idea of closer pins due to arrow speed... love the idea of a ton of kenetic energy... but I would hate to give up the 80% let-off Ive grown very used to.

Thanks for any tips

I shoot quite a few different bows. I have quite a few PSE bows (from an old PSE Polaris to a couple of newer PSE Mach-11 target bows) I also have an older Martin Tiger, a Newberry B1, a couple of Recurves and 2 Lakota bows ( a Lakota Bigfoot target bow and a Lakota Oglala Hunting bow)

My wife just made me buy a new bow . I bought a Bowtech 82nd airborn. I still have my mathews that I've been hunting with for the last several years. The Bowtech shoots so much faster it's not even funny. My Mathews was bottomed out at 67lbs. The new one is set at 65lbs. The only reason I don't go higher is cause I'm too cheap to buy new arrows. The 400 axis will not fly right if I go any higher. When I lose or break the ones I have I will switch to 340's.

Just bought a new closeout Bear Instinct.

Just bought a new closeout Bear Instinct.

Been looking at them too, but my wife won't go for it yet.  How is it?  I love the feel of both the Instinct and the Code.

Barely started shootin it.  Seems nice.  Price was awesome especially since I also had some gift certificates... only cost me 190 out of pocket. My overall experience shooting bows is pretty limited but it seems noticeably better than the other bows I've shot.  It has some nice features like machined limb pockets, Teflon cable slide, etc. that you normally find on more expensive bows.  Seems like a good value.  Better hurry though.... I hear that numbers are started to get pretty limited since they're a closeout.

that instinct is a nice little bow. ive played around with it quite a few times and love the way it shoots.

I shoot a local company bow from Elite.  It's the Synergy and it's blazing fast...
