This will be my first bow. I figured now was the time to start looking since there might be some decent deals out there. But I don't know what to look for. I have 8 months until season so no matter what, I will have plenty of time to practice and feel comfortable with whatever I get.
I am not set on the price, but I think I would like to stay around $500 for this setup. I have seen some specials online for PSE, Diamond and Bear bows for $400. With my little knowledge of bows would you say its better to go ahead and get on of those "package" bows or should I be looking online for a used bow that might have been a nicer bow a few years ago ? Would a $400 new bow have better technology than a used $400 bow ?
I could care less if it is new or used, but my only concern when looking at used bows are, I have no idea what to look for or ask ! How do you judge the strings in a picture, or the sights?
If I do buy used, should I automatically change the strings ? I measured and I should have a 28" draw length, so as long as I find a bow that is already set to 28" im good ?
