What is a good entry level bow that wont break the bank?

Find a used Bowtech Tribute, one of the greatest shooting bows of all time. You can come across one for $250-300.

In order of MY preference, taking into consideration quality and bang for your buck......If youre going new
Darton Consequence
Prime Ronan
Elite Terrain
Bowtech Amplifi
PSE Drive NXT
Hoyt Torrex or Torrex XT

To echo what others have said... buying a used flagship model thats a 1-3 years old will be the best bang for your buck and likely net you a nicer set up than going with a newer mid to low end bow.

I recently started shooting again after a years-long hiatus, using my 7 year-old Bowtech Reign. I really wanted to buy myself a new bow, but after shooting the new ones I found that they were approximately 0% faster, smoother, lighter, etc. than what I have. So I vote for buy a top end older bow, put a nice string on it, and have fun.

My son has a Hoyt Torrex XT that is pretty dang nice. Fully adjustable to fit most peoples draw length.

I was in the same spot you were in last year. I ended up buying a Bowtech Reign off a member here. I love it! It saved me a ton of money and she shoots amazing. I would go that route or something like that.

A lot of guys will say “the bow that best fits you”… Practice enough with any bow and you can kill. Buy any bow and don’t practice, you’ll only wound.

There’s two ways to look at it.
Go “cheaper”
1. Just in case your interest falls off your not out a ton of money.
2. You can upgrade the components overtime.

Or you can go the all out route and spend 2-4K for the top of the line everything.

I usually steer newer people towards the first one because you don’t really know what you want yet. Single pin rolling sight, rolling multi-pin sight or fixed pins. limb vs cable driven rest etc.

There are more animals killed with the “cabelas or bass pro” special every year than the flagship bows I’d guarantee it. Having good form will be the key regardless of the equipment of course.
