WTB: kids compound bow

[JasonC]

Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong spot, didn't seem like a good fit on the regular classifieds.

I'm looking to buy a used in good working shape kids compound bow. Challenge is I have a range from 13 to 7 so not sure if one will work for all. Ideally looking for one that could get up to the regulation 40 lb draw weight for hunting. Other challenge is that one is a rightie but cross dominant, sigh.

Suggestions or bows for sale welcome and thanks!

I have got most of my stuff there in classifieds.

I would check out the new Diamond Diamond Infinite Edge Compound Bow Package | Bass Pro Shops

Very adjustable (kid to adult) and comes with okay setup to hunt.

This was a choice I had for my 12yr old. I ended up going the Mission Riot for him as the Diamond wasn't available at the time.

His bow on right.


Him practicing for Oct.

Might be a bit of a hike, but try Tepee Archery in Acton. They'll help you out and make sure you have the right stuff.

I have a diamond razors edge that I just put on craigslist. It is lefty (I am righty with cross eye dominance as well) pm me if you want more info.

I just picked up a bow for myself at hunter's friend.

Ready-to-Hunt Compound Bow Packages for Short-Draw Youth and Lady Bowhunters Their youth packages start at $229, but you can get bare bows for less. For $500 they have a PSE rally that is supposedly adjustable from 18-70# without limb changes.

Hey Guys,

Thanks so much for all the input and comments, they are much appreciated! I think I'm going to look at the Diamond Infinite Edge package that seems like the most versatile, wow, really cool package. My only wish for it would be that it was somehow ambidextrous, but that's totally unreasonable.

Thanks guys.

JasonC - I'll tell you dealing with cross-eye dominance in archery is pain in the a$$. My son (who competes), my daughter, and my wife are all cross dominant (left eye - right hand). They all require left handed bows. I figured I'd teach myself to shoot left handed like them. I counted maintain a stable stance (swaying) while my eyes were fighting for dominance.

So right now, I've got three bows in the house I can't shoot and mine.

Aloha

Sounds like I'm headed down the same path my friend ;-) 3 interested shooters under 13, 1 cross dominant, the other two rightie, and me, so I'll probably end up with a stack of bows too! Could be worse things I guess!

Thanks!

Did you see the bow I have listed? It's sounds like what you are looking for.
