NO,I dont "need" a $700 bow,sorry $900 Canadian,BUT my wife is convinced I do

Love LBR but I have to disagree with that. I'm impressed with the shooter, never the bow. The same shooter can do it regardless of the bow but I get the point.

climb

My wife got me a new bow for Christmas. I had my choice of any bow I wanted. Iopted fora Reflex Super Slam. I think I found it on the internet for around $400.00. I love it and I am sure it will perform flawlessly for me. It has at the range and in the back yard so far. I think that all you need is a good quality product and a whole lot of confidence.
I wouldn't skimp on any accessories though.

Personally I will never pay that much for a bow, never did never will. Got a Matthews yes, but paid under 500.00 for it brand new...... so my personal feeling is that $700.00 is way, way too much........ even $500.00 about makes me cringe......... just cant imagine that a 250.00 to 300.00 bow cant be as quiet or shoot as straight and take as many deer as a 700.00 one?

I am amazed at how many guys at the range seem to think a rig 700$ or more will improve their FORM. Yea there is a bit off difference but if you dont shoot it right...and I bet 2/3s dont even if you will not find any admiting it on here...I can still beat you with my cheepest 200$ setup.

No, I don't need a $700.00 nor do I think it's necessary. Now I don't think you should run out and buy a cheap bow either. I believe as long as you get a bow from a reputable manufacturer I don't think you can go wrong. There are lots of good quality bows on the market that will perform just as good as the highline bows for a fraction of the cost.

Most important though is you get what YOU want.

Intresting question. Iam sure and can prove that a $100.00 bow can kill just as good as a $700.00 bow, butdo youalways want to drive a volkswagon or cheque out a nice lexas. Test drive the difference.

I am sure I can kill just as many bear, deer and elk with a cheaper bow. I never have and never will though agree with the statement about what the bow is used for, 3-d or hunting. And I certainly don't like the term, good enough for hunting. What is used for tack driving accuracy on the range should be incorporated in any hunting set up. I want the tack driving accuracy in my hunting bow also. There are some mid range bows that will proform rather well, probably to the point at which some archers can not shoot. Some can tell the difference though, and with tighter pocket tolerances and such needed thingsfor tack driving accuracy, usually comes a higher price tag. I therefore opt for the best that my money can buy at the time, even if it means a loss next year. Heck I know some guys that can blow 700.00 in a night on a craps table or on beer in one weekend with no return of their money. How many of you spent 700.00 in a weekend on a short get away. What will that bring you in one year. Look how many weekend getaways 700.00 will bring you during hunting season. It all depends on where your priorities and needs are. Must be why I am not ever getting married again!!!!!!!!!! Cheaper bows will make some happy, but I have noticed that a vast majority, will want to upgrade within a couple of years anyway. Just make sure that your purchase is one that will keep you happy for a few years if needed!!!! Whatever you may choose to spend.
