Default bought my first bow!

after missing a 5 x5 elk with my buddies dumb half target half hunting bow i decided i need a bow i can practice more so i went into the local shop picked up a bear element package, 6 easton 400 grain ST epic arrows, 3 g5 montec braodheads, and a tru fire release for $608 and i got it set at 52lbs and 28.5 drawlength. i guess its shooting around 280 fps. nice bow cant wait fopr another shoot at that elk. lol

Thats awesome you finally saw the light. Great choice on a bow as well.
Now we just need to work on that user name. It's much too "gunny" for a bowhunter.

I think you will really like the bow I shoot a Bear Instinct and I dont think you can get a better bow for the money especially for a first bow. I have owned Browning and PSE and I still love my Bear.
