How to Buy a Target Bow for 3D Archery

3D Archery has evolved from its origins in hunting and warfare to target archery and finally into the sport it is today. Archers shoot at replicas of game animals in lifelike hunting situations with better hits scoring more points. The more comfortable you are with the bow, the more you will be at ease whether at practice or competition.

Instructions

1. Locate an archery shop that can outfit you with a bow set up to your specifications.

2. Measure your draw length. This is the length that your bow string will be when pulled back to a comfortable knocking point. You can do this at any archery store.

3. Pick a comfortable draw weight that can be easily held when at full draw. Most modern compound target bows have adjustable draw weights with a high let-off percentage.

4. Choose your accessories such as arrow rest and stabilizer.

5. Shoot the bow to make sure that everything is working properly.

Tips & Warnings

• The most important part of choosing any bow is comfort.
