Bow input-Returning to bowhunting (Alaskan Pro vs AX2 32)

[MT_Fin]

I have not bow hunted for a number of years but my 16 year old has shown interest as they have been shooting bows in gym class. I was thinking about getting us each a mid-range set up to start out and looks like the Bear Alaskan Pro’s are well regarded in that range. However, I also found a decent deal on a new old stock 2025 Hoyt AX2 32.

Has anyone had experience with either now or have input? Should I be looking at other options?

Any help would be appreciated.

Experience with both. The hoyt is a superior product. If they are close to same price no doubt I would do the hoyt. What kind of support do you have for setup? The only caveat might be if competing shops and the bear is at a superior service department. Even then I would likely lean toward the hoyt and travel for help if needed
