    It says you're a junior member, about how old are you? About how tall are you? There are a lot of really decent priced bows for younger folks out there right now. I'm sure with a little bit more information we can probably give you some recommendations.

    If you can't find anything new, you're next best bet might be looking for a used bow that will still fit your needs.

    just go to a pro shop and have them measure you and see which bows are in your price range

    If your just getting into bow hunting why did you decide to start with a recurve bow and not a compound?

    I have a nice Browning compound for sale on ebay

    I'm selling a Browning compound on ebay:
    Check it out its ebay item#170675002399 its an older Browning Magnum Plus its in your price range and comes
    with a bow quiver and sight and is draw weight and length adjustable much easier to shoot than a re-curve :tu:
