I want to get into archery. Which compound bow would work best for me?

I really want to get into archery and bow hunting but I get intimidated by all of the options for compound bows and their accessories. Especially because they can all be very expensive. So which compound bows do you recommend I try? Here's some useful info about my situation:

  • I am looking for a compound bow
  • I want to target shoot and potentially hunt big game (primarily deer and elk)
  • My budget is anywhere from $1000 to $1600. Maybe more if it would be worth the extra investment.
  • I am a 6 foot male
  • My draw weight is anywhere from 60 to 80 pounds last I remember

I know that picking the right bow is a personal thing and that the best way to find one you like is to actually try shooting one. I'm just looking for recommendations that would help me narrow my search. I appreciate any and all responses!

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building. It seems that Shibuya and Axcel are the top end, so for anyone who has experience with either one of them, or preferably both, could you tell me the differences, pros and cons, and which one is the best value? i'm planning on buying the most expensive, so the Axcel Achieve XP - Recurve or the Shibuya Ultima RC PRO Carbon Sight . If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Is there any reason mediterranean and slavic draw shoot from opposite sides of the bow

When the release imparts the same twist on the string? It was my understanding that mediterranean draw has the arrow on the side opposite of the bow of the draw hand because of the twist imparted on the string affecting the arrow on release but that should mean that slavic draw would suffer from that problem. Am I missing something with this? Shouldn't that mean you could use a mediterranean draw on the same side of the bow as the draw hand and not have issues?

Are my new arrows overspined?

Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
