 I am about to buy my first compound bow next week. I am looking into a few companies packages. I might be headed towards the Redhead Blackout? Any suggestions for a price range of around $400 to $700 for a package?

Hi Andrew and welcome! It depends on what you are looking for. I always suggest shooting a bow before buying one. If you can hit up a pro shop go for it and look for a bow that fits you.

If you are interested, I have a PSE X-Force, fully loaded (minus a quiver) that I am looking to sell. I also know that Eddy Erautt was looking to sell his 2011 Bow Madness. Shoot me a PM if interested.

Lots of good ones out there. I would say look at the Diamond bows closely as well. I could get you into a 2010 Elite for about that as well. It is a new bow still in the box. Let me know if you are interested.

The Mathews and Mission bows are a good choice i like pse bows as well also the new winchester bows are good i agree that you should shoot a few to be sure of what you want i can get you a switchback xt at a reasonable price it is an older bow made by mathews good luck

 Hey Everyone, thanks for your input. Sorry I am lagging on an update but I have been in food poisoning hell! I decided to pick up a bowtech assassin. So far I love it, but I have not gotten to go nuts with it since I have been changed to my toilet for a week thanks to bad sushi.
