Compound Bow Comparator

This bow can be used by any beginning archer from young youth to adult. It is fairly smooth and comfortable to shoot. It is a step above the Apprentice 2 in Bear's line up and seems to better for older youths with the Apprentice 2 more ideal for younger or smaller youths. It has good speed with the dual cams at all weights and draw lengths. The quality of Bear products keeps getting better. Although it lacks any color options there are many kids that still want a camo bow like Dad's. The Outbreak's gigantic range of adjustability makes it appropriate for a larger variance of archers than nearly any other bow. With an MSRP of $299.99 one can't really go wrong and it is a great price for a bow that will go up to 70lbs. in draw weight. Read full review...

Any willing to learn youth will fit into this bow just right. It is forgiving and gives the realistic feel of shooting a "big" bow. It is light and extremely adjustable to fit any sized youth archer. It a great starting point bow in Bear's line up with it being a little smaller than the Outbreak. It has good speed with the dual cams for shorter lengths and lighter draws. Bears customer service is second to non for any questions, problems, or warranty work that they are more than happy to help with. It is fun to shoot and shouldn't scare any young shooter away. The range of adjustability makes it even easier to like when it can be fit just right. It comes ready to hunt with a Trophy Ridge 3 pin sight, Trophy Ridge Whisker Bisquit rest, arrow quiver, peep sight, and a string loop. The MSRP of $279.99 is pretty good when considering everything that it includes. Read full review...
