Yeah I don't know what that means but I agree with going to a shop rather than dealing with a salesman at Cabelas. Not knowing what we're doing and buying something will end up costing a lot more down the road.
I like the idea of paying them at Jimbows for an hour or two so he can get fitted, the bow tuned, etc., some lessons and shoot the bow there.
Even if we buy a used one like "b's dad" suggested, we'll take it to a shop.
