Title: Advice wanted for youth bow
Post by: Sutherland on October 23, 2021, 08:38:42 AM: My daughter just turned 9 and I am looking to start her off with a good youth bow. Any one have any they would recommend? She's gone through a few of the simple ones that sportsmens sells and is ready for something she can grow Into. She loves being out target practicing with her dad. What's everyone's thoughts?

Got my daughter this one a year or so ago. Draw length goes down to like 13'' and weight goes down to 5lbs I think. Just like shooting mom or dads bow. She loves it.
