    you would get an average entry level recurve for around that price TD. I wouldn't trust a compound bow for that price. A mate ha d a cheeeeeeeep old browning compound bow that snapped and smashed him in the face, the arrow landed between his feet. Was farkn funny but bloody dangerous. Don't by a cheap chinese compound, only asking for trouble

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    This isn't bad for an entry level recurve well placed shots will take bunnies easily and no reason foxes wouldn't drop with a critical shot http://shop.archerymart.com.au/colle...guar-take-down

    I have a reaaalllly on old composite plastic type recurve, I think I can fart an arrow better than this bow but young bloke uses it occassionally so I won't offload it.

    I prefer compound personally but that not a bad looking bow there Growler. Wouldn't mind trying my hand at bow hunting

    We had them at high school I rekon.

    Some blokes swear by and only shoot traditional, others like myself are into compound, personal preference I spose
    Ive got a cool DVD called backpacking for hogs by tusker productions. Its really amazing the pigs these blokes take down with their recurves no sights nadda

    First shot hit him in the nose needless to say he would have been a very pissed off if it was real the others were somewhere close to the mark it was shooting down across a steep little gully. You'd never have a crack at a buff from that distance, 10-20m max

    This guy woulda been very dead at 20m

    I use both recurve and compound, bare bow on recurve and sights on compound, my old man taught me how to shoot bare bow on compound which is pretty easy with a little practice and plus if sights are out or get buggered in the field you can go back to bare bow.........

    im looking at getting an Oneida Bow....had one a couple year's ago kept breaking the string but technology has caught up with the bow and are pretty good to shoot now.....well that's what I have heard

    when i was a teen i used to shoot bare bow compound as i thought sights just seemed weird on a bow but after going out with a mate from work who has the peep sight and the release aids that is amazing but felt alot more like firing a rifle or crossbow as you are in a way taking the human factor out of it and you end up relying on these aids to get your shot.

    just my opinion
