Answer 2

Do some looking around and find a bow that fits you check all the brands and then make your decision on what you like.

Answer 3

There are many different kinds of good bows out there. Find one you like and buy it. The more you practice and learn about your bow and how to keep it in tune the easier it will get. I would suggest a bow with a brace height of 7 1/2" or more. The greater the distance the string is from the grip the more forgiving the bow is. I shoot a Matthews and would suggest them to anyone. Other good bows are Hoyt and Bow Tech. Find one that fits you the best and you can afford and start practicing.... a lot!

Answer 6

If I were you, a good entry level bow are some of the PSE bows. Nova, Durango, Deer Hunter etc. When I decided on a bow, I shot many different ones at an outfitter.

  When you shoot these yourself, you will notice definte likes and dislikes. When you draw back, notice smoothness in the cams without graininess and the release should be the same. I prefer the PSE's just for this reason. They are smooth! This means less distraction, and you can concentrate on your technique,  form and accuracy with each shot.

  After you have chosen the right bow for you, practice, practice, you might want to shoot with someone who can teach you proper stance and form so you can be consistant each time. That's what causes 90% of people to stop hunting or using a bow, they can't keep a constant form to stay accurate.

  Hope that helps.
