Pro shops are more rare then hens teeth up here, it`s no where to try out archery equipment. So online shopping is the way to go for me, but that`s a bit overwhelming when you got so little knowledge as I do.. So recommendations would be very welcome. I don`t need the 2017 models, but a decent...
I have an old bow, shoot it a little from time to time, but no hunting since it`s not allowed to hunt with bows here. But looking at all the archery hunting on you tube it got me wondering about how outdated my bow really is, it`s a Mathews mq32 60 pounds with 32" draw length.

Norrøna make great gear, but is extremely expensive, I think their newest hunting outfit, jacket and trousers cost around 1150 usd. But they last forever though... Helly hansen has become more of a fashion brand up here, but they do make great work clothes. I also think they made some gore tex...
Maybe a bit controversial topic to start of with as a new guy on a forum, but I`m curious.
