I have been undecided on weather to buy a compound or cross bow. I was concerned about my wrist and sholder problems. I took a trip to the local Gander Mountain and pulled a 50 pound bow with a 75% let off.
WOW!! Much easier than I was expecting. Long story short, I am looking at the Cabelas Master Catalog (Fall 03 Edition 1 page 483). They have a Fred Bear kit for 469.99. Anybody with any knowledge or experience with this or any other bows to help out a newbee? I know that I have a 28" pull and want the 50-60 # pull. It will be used for practice first, then graduate to deer, turkey and whatever. Do I need to buy a specific legenth arrows? Why the different shapes of vanes? Are the trigger releases a must have or just a gimmic?
