I have a neighbor who has a son, 10yrs old. Big for his age who wants to get into archery. Anyone have a lower poundage compound bow for donation?

OK, I need a Draw Lenght to work with. I have some Low Poundage bows but they are Short draw bows too. 10# @20" Got one that makes a clicking sound when you draw it but shoots pretty good though. 28# @ 27" draw.(This bow is also right or left handed.) I'll bring what I have to the shoot & see what we can do to make one fit that little feller. OK?

Red, I have no idea of the boys draw length. I will call his dad and see if he can come up with a number. If not I think I can get it pretty close with a yard stick. I'll let you know. Thanks Roy

10 years old, big for his age, could probably pull 30-35# easy, maybe 40? I have given up on compounds and going to stick with trads. I will sell or give away all compound equipment. Red if you can't match him let me know maybe one of mine will. Hunting or target? Don

Don, I don't think it matters ,Hunting or Target. Sounds like he just wants a BOW to shoot. Just Bring Your's & I'll bring Mine & we'll see what bow fit's him the best. Sound like a Plan.??? Anybody else that want's to can bring what they have too. Sound's like we may have this Kid COVERED.!! What you think.?? LOL

Father/son visited today. Best I can tell, draw length about 24/25 inch. They will be at the 24th Shoot. Maybe someone can hook them up with a donated bow for the little guy.
