man are you guys thread jacking or what >:( he asked about a bow not what bow you will be buying :chuckle: i own 10 brands of bows as of right now and i am die hard pse fan but i am not going to try to take over the thread. if you have not shot the charge you don't need to add your 2 cents. what i said is i have shot the truth 2 and think it to be a little better then the charge. and anyone wants to take a look at the score board matthews is still chasin PSE ARCHERY  so catch us if you can lol :P

I've shot a Hoyt before.   :chuckle: 

How is that relevant, you ask?  Well, it's not.

Actually, I know from other threads that Carp has a lot of bows.  Good advice from him - he has the experience to be able to compare brands/models.

My advice is to keep looking for a better/used bow. They are out there. I bought a Mission X-3 ready to shoot, for my brother this past winter. I paid $225 for it. But you should be going to different shops and shoot their bows. Get a feel for what you like.

yeah, thanks all, leaning towards a quality used one as mentioned. my only concern with that is the age old question, why are you selling it, either shoots bad or something else, bad limb etc, so i guess causion is the word.

there is a lot of people that sell perfect bows just because they want a newer bow or the latest model of what ever there fave brand is. so there is some good bows out there as well. if you have any question feel free to pm me or ask about certain bows or models as well. always glad to help

check the classifieds at archerytalk.com
The way bows depreciate in price I would buy a used one if you're trying to save money. Maybe have a pro shop give it a once over first.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Gearhead, Bear makes a pretty fair bow in my opinion.  I haven't shot the Chrage, but have shot the Truth 1 and 2.  Both were pretty good bows and at the price point I would say were a good deal.  If you like the way it feels in your hand, and how it shoots.  I think the Charge would be a pretty good bow for the price.

That being said, I think you could spend the same amount on a 1-2 year old used bow that is a better bow.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

mision ftw. best bow for the price. drifterat with probly attest to that statment. mission makes a hellava bow. not speed demons but they stack up in every other catagory compared to the topline bows. im pushing a 455grn arrow at about 275 at 70 lbs 29' draw. very smooth drawing bow. when buying a new bow you owe it to yourself to check out all makes and models. a good bow thats fits you well with last you a life time(if taken care of properly)

thx again all, if i do by new leaning on the bear charge, just the bow, then adding my better accessories than the package offers, or maybe buying the pse bowmadness/package at cabelas.
