"Scout Fibreglass Bows"

I rate this bow with 2 Stars only. The contoured handle is molded rubber that isn't even wrapped all the way around the riser area of the bow. It is held in place by rubber cement and when I received it, it seemed to be coming off already. The string is thin that you'll need to build it up (where the arrow knock sits on the string) with dental floss. It shoot fine, but overall, this bow is rated mediocre. 2 stars

"Decent Flatbow"

The handle is horrible. It has a little rest similar to what compound bows have, but it is made of plastic, not rubber. This, for some reason, doesnt allow the arrow to fly straight. It wobbles. Also, the arrow rests 2 1/2 inches off center, which makes the bow less powerful and accurate, not to mention it may damage it eventually. An easy solution to this problem is to take the handle off and make your own. Not really a big deal. The actual bow is pretty good. If you can put a better handle on that is aligned properly, then this bow really isnt that bad. Just don't string it improperly. I think that was the cause of my previous one breaking. 3 stars
