Can we just take the warning stickers off everything and let natural selection take its place, I mean if its spinning fast dont put your fingers in it..... Its not hard

A 2008 Bowtech Tribute, 33" axle to axle length, 80 lb draw, well set up for hunting. Has scored a number of pigs up here. Have Truglow sights, arrow guide (cant remember brand), counter weight and mechanical release included in the package. Bow was originally bought from Canberra archery shop new for $1350. Selling for $700 ono with all the accessories. Will include about 10-15 arrows as well most with broadheads, some with target tips.
Bow is in very good to excellent condition and I really like this bow but since I stuffed up my knee some five years ago I am not as mobile as you need to be when bowhunting pigs. PM me if you would like to test fire it....

ps it's a left hander (i.e. hold the bow with left hand, release arrow with right).

That would be the bows maximum poundage
Most bows can be backed down

The most important thing you should be looking for is draw length

Take a trip down to Top End Bowhunters on Bowhunters road Coolalinga on a Sunday mornin and introduce yourself to them
You will find them very helpful and probably find a bow at the right price that suits you
