youth hunting bow

Recommended Posts

I have the perfect bow for you...it is an alpine micro youth bow that can be changed up to a 28 in" draw and can pull 40 lbs. Can be used for hunting, at least I did. I shot several deer with it. Very accurate and fast.

joe15 i looked at thier web site and it looks like that bow wont go down to 20lbs. i dont even know if a manufacture has one that goes down that low. im looking for an adjustable range from 20 - 35 lbs. i just got back into bowhunting last year. single dad here raising my son. the bow i shoot is an xi legend myles keller. 32" draw 74# pull 65% let off. i went to the pro shop and was asking about a new string, the kid laughed at me.... xi company is not even around anymore... of course he tried selling me a new bow... i said to him i like mine...its paid for

chris,

the fact that xi isnt around anymore has nothing to do with new strings on that bow. i restrung two of them this week. it runs around 75 bucks installed with vapor trail strings. as for youth bows there are several good ones out there that will fit what your son needs. diamond, fred bear, parker, mathews and browning all make good ones. so far teh coolest one that i have seen are from diamond because of the huge range of adjustment that the kids can grow with

my little brother bought a Forge a couple years back. that particular bow will go from 30 to 60 pounds. and 25 to 30 in draw lenght, its called the woodsman. check out the nimrod too.

they arent as that expensive. there is a guy in bluegrass (between vendale and sebeka) that sells them. not too may forge dealers out there, and not a name u hear of very often, i've had my safari for 4 years and 3 deer without one complaint. if i remember right by little brother has like 500 bucks in EVERYTHING from bow to field tips. check em out forgebow(dot)com

i dont think you will be disappointed

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
