I wanna bow!!!

[colroggal]

I'm hoping to get back into archery and maybe bow hunting in the next year or so once I feel I'm good enough. I haven't had a bow since I was a kid so we can say my official level of knowledge on the subject is Squat. I'm a lefty and pretty strong. At the gym I single arm row 60 lbs in sets of 20 and I can do strings of one arm pushups. I'm 6'4" and 240 fairly firm (ish).

Bio aside, should I jump into a compound or start with a fairly cheap recurve and build up from there. What's a good starting draw, my strength being considered.

Does any one have a recommendation? I don't trust online reviews. Any help is muchly appreciated.
Thanks, Colin.

I have a LH bow for sale right now....a Bowtech Destroyer 350 in a 50-60lb limb setup.

Draw is adjustable currently set at 28 inches....one of the faster hunting bows made....

I'll bump my ad in buy and sell, let me know if interested. I might have some other items/components to help get you going.

Thay is a good deal especially knowing that Lefty know his stuff and would not have abused or dry fired the bow.

You're not the first to say Lefty's a stand up-Canuck. Makes me wish I lived closer to Beaumont. I told my wife I wasn't going to spend much. (Her idea of much and mine differ obviously). I forsee a lot of foot massages in my near future.

Not for Lefty! Geeze!

No offence ... the grammar leaves me questioning if you're pro or con. Remember, my knowledge level is about equivalent to a preschooler enjoying the gentle high of paste.

Lefty, somehow I thought you would be the first response. Bump it and I'll check it out.

Thanks, Colin.
