Good Deal?

Seems like an ok price, since it's got all the accessories. That being said, I'd offer 100 and see what happens.
I think JBrown is spot on. Just like any bow though, I'd want to shoot it or see it sling an arrow.

is that a parker sidekick? if so, they are going for about $250 last I knew, that one looks like it comes with better accesories than the new package. I was looking at one for my daughter because it has a wide range of draw length and weight adjustments. she liked the bear apprentice better though. the parker was still a decent bow though.

Mike if you don't buy that one let me know.
I have a "Parker Buckshot" 18-28" draw, 30-40# limbs I'll sell ya cheap.
It has the factory sight and quiver, and nothing else. It would be no problem to get it setup they way he needs it.

Dante, I'm not sure. This was on Facebook from a friend of my wife. This girl used it while breaking into bow hunting.
Dale, how much you want? You can Pm me if ya want.

The thing I would make sure of is to get a bow that will hit the #40 mark. So that way once he has been shooting a while he can hunt with it, instead of having to go get a whole new setup.

Good point Steve. The Parker I have comes with 40# limbs and you can order heavier limbs from Parker.
Just met the girl who has the bow. She uses it to shoot carp right now. She's actually on a show on the Pursuit Channel and she's taking to bow on a TV trip to the Illinois river to shoot carp.
I had a few beers last night and I can't remember the name of the show but the owner of the show is from southeast Ohio. She has hunted everything.
She said she would take $100 for it.
So, which bow are you guys recommending then?

It just hit me what the name of the show is: Sudden Impact.
Here's a link to their show. If you watch the clip, the blonded in the beginning is the girl that is selling the bow. The owner is Dave Lusk from southern Ohio. That name sounds familiar... why?

Steve, it's a Parker, but that is all I know at this point. I'm waiting to hear from her since her last trip with the bow should be wingind down or done.

Yea Dave just joined the TOO, I take it that was Nicole Wade you meet? Depending on which model bow she has they both are good beginner bows. The Buckshot that Badger has is a great "go to grow" bow. The Buckshot has a deal where for $50 bucks you can swap out the limbs as your kid grows. It will shoot 20-30, 30-40, 40-50lb limbs, and has a wide range of draw lengths. I would buy the buckshot depending on how interested your kid is in bowhunting.
Yes, it was Nicole I met.
Is the buckshot Dale's bow or Nicole's Parker?
I was leaning towards Nicole's only because it is already all set up. But, I'm listening...
