[QUOTE="muzzyhunter, post: 310834, member: 1093"] I also recomend a trip to an archery shop,to get measured for drawlength,draw some bows,to get a feel for what you like,and if you do purchase you will have knowlegable staff to set you up.Once you have decided on a bow,I would put more $ into the rest and the release vs sight,stabilizesr quivers.For a beginner dont get caught up in super expensive arrows,as I know very few shooter,if any that can tell a difference of.004 straightness,and whatever you do buy probly wont be around in 2 years. If you do know what your looking for,and have someone that can setup,Archery talk classifieds has alot of dealers selling NIB holdovers at very discounted prices,this is the way I buy my bows nowadays,technology doesnt advance that fast!! As far as internet tutors,most will say John Dudley's Nockon archery,he is good but he's also a salesman for his neon green acessories!!I think the young guy from Inside out Presicion,on youtube does a better job. Lastly if possible join a club,lots of knowledgable people willing to help the new guy,with leagues,3d shoots,bowhunting/archery can be much more than just hunting deer in the fall. Good Luck!!
