    Just getting into bow hunting scence and honestly i dont know much about bows and really want to learn as much about it as i can... The only hunting i'd done before hand was with guns.

    One of my mates gave me his bow because he is an impulsive buyer and only fired a few arrows threw it. There is no markings on the bow at all but i've done a bit of research and it looks like it could be a perfect line carbon black 60# with a cartel beginner target sight and some dodgy looking rest... the thing doesnt have a peep sight at all so i got no idea how he was aiming the thing... also he wasnt running any knocking points or d loop or a cable guard or slide???

    There is no clubs in my area so i thought i'd join this forum to try and get as much info as i can on how to set it up correctly then go out and have some fun picking off rabbits :cool:

    Cheers
    Robert
