I have only been shooting trad around a year, and I bought a ben pearson hunter from a guy and have gotten pretty good with it, until I broke a limb the other day. I broke the top limb about 3 inches from the end. I was out hunting for rabbits and went to shot at a old cedar stump and when I drew back and just got to ancher it let go. I guess I will have to shop around for another, I cant afford to go buy a new one. If anybody has something thats 56 to 58 inches and around 55lbs that you dont want to much for let me know, because I am out of the game at the moment. thanks pearlcityblue
