Hey everyone,
I'm thinking of getting a bow for my boy this Christmas. He is 6, but an outdoorsman of 20, haha. He can cast a fly line better than 90% of the people I've had in my boat, and he's been shooting a 22 for a few years so I'm not concerned with him having a bow in his hands.
I don't want to get him a toy, I'm hoping to find him a compound. What should I look for?
Daisy makes a youth crossbow with 29 lb. draw weight.
Good stocking stuffers for your son would be a good slingshot or a boomerang.

My son shot a Bowtech Atomic when he was younger. It's a great youth bow and it allowed him to grow with it as it was fairly adjustable in draw length/weight.

They are not a toy - they are just miniature versions of a full compound
As you kids grows you will find you have to adjust the bow frequently for draw length (and weight) - save yourself some grief and upgrade the sight to something more adjustable than the stock sight.
Oldest son transitioned out of the Atomic directly into a BowTech for hunting.
I have heard good things about the PSE mini-burners as well, however I have no experience with them
