Look out robin hood, here I come!!!

Nice bow for recreational target practice. It came with a pre set knock point and stick-on plastic arrow rest that works fine. Make sure you buy a stringer if you dont have one already. I bought the 35# draw weight and that seems to suit most young adults and women. If you are a heeman, make sure you go for a 45# or higher, the 35# is a borderline toy-bow. I ended up buying a 45# Bear "grizzly" that is great for target and hunting as well, but this PSE was a good starting bow and I plan on keeping it just to use when I take my wife out to shoot targets. 28" arrows work good with this setup, wood or carbon.

Good value for a starter bow

I purchased this bow as a starter bow for my husband. This is a great bow to work on form and to get started with target archery - it's priced just right. We went with 35# - perhaps a bit on the light side, but not a bad start for a beginner.

The downside, the bow has a slowly progressive twist to the top limb after only 1 season shooting, and it tends to "stack" a bit. To be fair, it's possible a slight over-draw is contributing to the twist. Also, watch the servings on the stock string.

For the money, if you're just getting started in target archery, or just want to try it out, this bow is good value for the money. Hubby is now addicted to archery and ready to upgrade. Mission accomplished!

Great bow for the price!

I bought the 30# model, and it's a great shooter.

Pros:
The riser comes pre-drilled for a quiver, stabilizer on the front and a plunger.
Since the limbs are removable, the weight of the pull can be adjusted up or down with a new set of limbs.
The $100 price tag for a new bow makes it one of the least expensive bows out there.

Cons:
Good deal of hand shock. The bow rattles my teeth after releasing, but I'm sure some string silencers will help out a great deal.

Final evaluation:
For the price, probably the best shooting bow out there. You can shoot it all day and not get tired, making it a perfect bow for anyone looking to work on form or wanting to have fun with the kids.

PSE Buckeye 62" Bow

This bow has proven to be an excellent product and very reasonably priced. It is much more fun to shoot for extended periods of time than my more powerful compound bow. I am very satisfied.
