Golden Eagle bows??
« on: June 26, 2009, 01:42:48 PM »
Does anyone know anything about these bows?  Are they any good or should it be avoided?  A friend of mine has one that I was thinking about buying but I don't know a damn thing about bows.  I'm wanting to get into bow hunting, but once again have no idea about what I'm getting into.  Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.  One thing to keep in mind, I know that quality usually comes with a price, but I'm cheap and don't want to break the bank.  Thanks guys.

I'm not too sure about all the details on it.  It sounds like it's only a few years old, said his ex wife bought it for him for Christmas a few years back and he never even set it up.  Still working on getting more info out of him on it.

Thanks, I knew they weren't made anymore, but that's about all I knew.  When I find out more about it I'll be in touch.

Thanks guys, I think I'm passing on that bow and going to shop around a bit for a bow around town.  May have to take a run to Cabela's today. :o
