would you recomend this bow to a teenage archer who is new to the sport

 

[dtrkyman]

no,not a good bow for the beginner.

 

[SIO_LIL_GUY]

Simply put..............NO............
New to the sport I would go with like a PSE Chaos, Mission bow of somekind, Diamond, etc.... Something with a little less bite out of the wallet, but still a quality bow. If he sticks with it, after a year or 2 move up to a better bow.... Just my opinion...

 

[rmadduxjr]

The Omen is not a beginner bow IMO. There are several other PSE's that would do a good job for a beginner though. I think of the Omen as an advaced bow.

 

[IL Bowhunter 82]

Definatley not a beginners bow. Learn on something easier and cheaper.

 

[DRT]

I think it may scare the kid :shade:

 

[Dead Center]

I believe the Stinger or the Brute would be the way to go. Not as radical as the Omen. easier to shoot for the beginner.

 

[killzone90]

heck no thats not for bigginers

 

[passinthrough12]

You will be much better off with another pse if that is what you had your heart set on, stinger, brute a bowmadness would also be nice if you wanted to spend more.

 

[chaosboy]

im thirteen and just bought my first bow a few months ago. I bought a pse chaos and love it. Its very acurate and smooth.

 

[drockw]

I have an Omen, and would definately say no... I love it, but would never recommend it to someone without experience and at minimum decent form and consistency.

The bow will shoot great, but its not a walk in the park to get used to at first and it may have the beginner wishing they hadnt dropped a grand really fast.

 

[pselover]

no, that has too much power for a beginner.

 

[Barlow]

Like the others said I would not recommend it. It would be like putting a new driver in a Ferarri. A beginner is not ready for that aggressive of a bow. Shoot awhile, learn proper form and shot execution, then switch to a speed bow. To start, you want something that is easy to draw and forgiving of form flaws. Think single cam bow with a 7" inch brace height. For PSE, I would recommend the Bowmadness or Chaos. Most manufactures make a good bow that is suitable for beginners. Go test some out at a proshop and let the bow pick you. Good luck.

 

[erikbarnes25197]

i thnk the madness would be decent to start with.

 

[Double S]

A Big No for a Beginner. look at PSE Brute, Stinger. The Bow madness bows are really nice to shoot too. I would steer them toward the Bow madness and or Brute First. I.M.O.

 

[nrd517]

thank you I will look into this

 

[samkatera]

uh

NO. not good for noobies.

 

[Broncobo]

NO! no man not at all i dont recommend this bow for very experienced bow shooters more or less beginners, If i was you i would get him a gx or Ben Pearson tx-34, the omens cam is harsh to the max so radical its not fun to shoot at all! Relly it all depends on his age, late teens a gx cam is about as high as you want to go, with a younger teen 13 or lower i would recommend the Pearson or bow madness, only problem with the bow madness is the strings or cheap and not good where the Pearsons come with dang good strings. I hope I helped a little =)

 

[killzone90]

i would go more with like a pse brute lt.its nice and smooth
