    I'm 27 years old active duty soldier with a family. I love my wife and little boy. I've been a rifle hunter since I was 12. My father-in-law bowhunt and this season I started to mingle with bows. I have not purchased a bow yet. I'm on here to learn and share stories.

    Welcome to the forum! Nothing but respect to our soldiers! Bow hunting is a great thing, I don't even miss rifle season since I've started bow hunting :). When you get a bow, don't be afraid to try out several different brands and modles of bows to find what works for you, most bow shops will let you test a bow out before buying it and if they don't I personally wouldn't do business with them.

    Thank you. I enjoy what I do. Looking forward to spending my Monday at some shops and trying out different brands. Our family leans towards Mathews. Close friends prefer PSE and Bear. I'm just gonna go in and see what feels right and is in my budget. I
