    After 20 years, I am returning to bowhunting. When I left Wyoming in 1995, I left my bow behind. I never realized how much I missed it. Then I found Bowhunt or Die, on the Roku. It brought back some of the greatest memories of growing up. It was then that those old feelings returned. It hit me like a ton of bricks. While I havent even bought my bow yet, I cant wait, and window shop online constantly. Soon , the return will be complete.

    Due to financials, I am considering a few different entry level priced bows. I am looking at the PSE Vision, Diamond Infinity Edge, and a Bear that I cant remember the model name of. going to meet a friend tomorrow, and shoot all three at the store. Whichever one feels right, and I feel most comfortable with, I am going to buy.

    Welcome back and to the site. It's awesome to see people get back into bow hunting after years of being out of it.

    My uncle is back after 30 years. Just shot with him some Saturday! Good luck with your purchase its a great feeling to buy a new bow!

    I went to get my new bow this morning. I actually ended up getting the PSE Brute X. I'm itching to take to to the range, but it's closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
