Any bow that is sound and shootable is worth 15 bucks, I say if it's nice, buy it!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Just an fyi, when getting a string for a recurve, get it 4" shorter than what it says on the bow. I just bought a string and it goes from tip to tip. Then I researched it. Now I know.

Shot my first two deer with an old Damian howett recurve 45 lb pull. Razor sharp broadheads and get in close, all you will ever need. Go find another one and have fun! Jim
Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.
