    Hello everyone im new to Bowhunting and just ordered my first bow. Its the Bear Apprentice 3 and the reason why I ordered this Bow in particular is that it wasn't expensive and seem like a good brand to start out with. Has anyone ever used this bow and reviews and advise is greatly appreciated.

    I haven't shot one but I know people who do and they love them for what they pay.

    And why not? Bear has made huge strides to making durable and dependable bows very comparable to the other bow manufacturers. I love my Bear, it has been very accurate and I've killed a few deer with it no problem.

    My hunting buddy shoot an apprentice and he probably won't go back. He enjoys the comfort and smoothness. Hope you like it and harvest many a animal with it
