Martin MOAB

What can you tell me about the Martin MOAB ?
It has been a long time sense I hunted with a bow and I have flareups of bursitis in my shoulders at times . I am 61 and don't want to invest a bunch of money in something I may have trouble shooting for a long time. I shot one of these bows 3 days ago .  I really liked the feel of this bow. What can you tell me about it, good or bad.

Thanks

What is your goal with the Martin MOAB bow?  Are you just target shooting or do you intend on bowhunting with it?  I'm a right handed shooter and had left shoulder surgery, and just getting back into shooting my bow so I understand your shoulder pain.  You want to make sure your draw weight will accomadate and not be too stressfull on your shoulder. 


You may need one of these, with your shoulder.
Make sure you do warm up excersises before you shoot your bow, I have a blue elastic band my physical therapist gave me.  You can get these probably at any physical therapist as they come in cream color, red and blue at my physical therapist.  I have found them online in black, green and blue.

Here is product Bow Fit that has a review if you want to spend money on one of these:
