    So just recently I found a really old bow that my mom used to use. It's a browning fox 2. So should I clean that up and use it or buy a brand new bow?

    I know what would be great for you, Since you are very new, I suggest the 2015 Pse Stinger 3g, $300 on Cabelas! Can't beat that! I have a 2013 Stinger 3g and, it's perfect, cheap but reliable like all these high priced bows!!

    How old are you? Browning Fox II is the first bow I ever owned and I was 9. It could possibly be too small for you and a new bow may be your only option. Plus it believe they were made in the early 90's so it has some age on it!

    How much are you willing to pay? It doesn't have any accessories though.

    I could do that but would you rather just mail me the money? Either way but the mail is easier.

    You should always use PayPal when making transactions on these forums. $50 is not much money but it is always safer for both parties. You know you get your money and if you do not send product he has PayPal coverage to get his money back. As I said $50 is not much but one day you might want to buy a bow off a forum such as archery talk. And I will tell AT is only good for their classifieds
