Recommend a hunting bow 24", for a teen

[dixiecutter]

That he can hunt with. I'm not too concerned about "grow-with", because when he outgrows it we'll move on to an adult bow. I can get us through the set up and teach him how, but I'm curious who in here has a teenager and can recommend which bows are huntable @ 24" for a 13 year old. Thanks in advance.

Diamond infinite edge or whatever it’s called nowadays.
It will last him until he’s fully grown and he never need upgrade even then.

I bought my son the bear cruzer g2, but he was 7 (now almost 9) and it is a grow with bow but for the price I figured we'd see how much he really likes this first. Definitely will upgrade when it's time, with saying that it's adjustable from 12-30" up to 70lbs, 15 or 20 on the low end, it's pretty smooth but you will need to put some tape on the grip. I'd buy it again, infact I am, his little sister has fallen in love with the pink camo version. It's 30" axle to axle though. I know it's not exactly what you asked for but it's a fun little bow to shoot, especially the way kids grow from say now to the season you can do all the adjustments at home in a few minutes and be good to go

Mathews mission … fully adjustable and my son’s wife has a 24 inch draw and dropped her first P&Y buck in Illinois 2 seasons ago
Hopefully if not there yet he can get close to 50 draw weight and shoot a cut on contact BH and good luck

For a “grow with” bow the Hoyt Kobalt goes 18” - 28”, if you want a top of the line short draw bow go with the Hoyt Eclipse, it’s 23 1/2” - 28” and it’s a fine full blown hunting bow.

I’ll chime in…if you can find one a Bowtech Heartbreaker would be very good choice…they can grow with and as David mentioned head right on to the stand with it as well!

Xpedition made a short draw bow a couple of years ago that got good reviews and was as fast as any bow out there at shorter draw lengths

Bear Legend XR.. All reviews have it being very smooth and very efficient at all draw length and poundage settings.

I bought one about 6 years back for my oldest, now my 11yo is shooting it. Great choice.
