[QUOTE="bigbrad123, post: 49415, member: 806"] I started out buying a used ready to shoot bow for $75, a used target from Craigslist for $20, and a $25 or $30 intro to bow class to learn proper technique. I've searched youtube and other online resources to figure a few things out and read good information on sites like this and archerytalk. My first year I went out onto the small plot of land and sat on a bucket behind a bunch of downed trees freezing my butt off. Never shot one, but saw some not too far away and was instantly hooked. The following year I got a cheap blind for my birthday. Sure, over the years I've purchased a nicer bow, better blind, nicer stands, trail cameras, etc. But....you CAN start cheap and still shoot a deer. Granted, there's a lot of stuff I still don't know, but I've killed a couple deer and am addicted to this great sport. [/QUOTE]
