    Sorry to say, but bows hold their value almost till you get out the door of the store[:(]. A bow like you described sounds to me like it would be $100 or less. The case and release might bring the price up pending they are good brands.

    now onto a better note, welcome to the forum loader.

    Suspension.

    Thanks for the information. The guy only wants 70.00 for the whole thing, So I guess its a good investment for my son. He wants to start hunting with a bow.
    Now if I could only find a 50BMG for myself for the same price, I would be so HAPPY[:D].

    Thanks again,

    Sounds like it.

    50BMG, might add a bit more for that. You must be a squirrel hunter to require that kind of gun. [^][:D][;)]

    Nothing at all taco, I figured out he was a squirrel hunter just from knowing the gun he plans on using. I know it's a gift I have, sure am lucky sometimes. [:D][:D]

    I shouldn't say anything because from time to time I like to take out a ground hog with my 06 or 300, it's just neat watching. [^]

    Actually, I use my 45/70[:D] for the squirrels. But I need the 50 BMG for the RATS[:0] I have around here. YOu know, the ones here in TEXAS. About 150lbs +.[:)]
    Had to get a small puppy dog ( [:D]Great Dane ), so my son could go outside and play without being eaten.
