Default In need of a youth bow (Boy Scouts)

I have given every youth compound bow I owned away. I at one time had seven and after my son's got a new bow each I started giving them out to Scouts and to fellow TBHer's so they could take their son's and daughters hunting. Now I don't have anything to teach the Archery Merit Badge to the Scouts and I just got an email asking if I could help a Scout get his badge.

Does anyone have either a Genisis or a recurve that draws say 15- 20#'s that they would be willing to let go for cheap? I'm not asking for a hand out, but just a helping hand. Post here, send a PM or call me at 281-413-6715.

Thanks and any and all help is appreciated.

Ronny I appreciate it. I might have to take you up on it. I found a slightly used Genisis, but still out of my price range.

This is for me to teach the Boy Scouts. Most boys get the badge at summer camp, however some need extra help. Thats where I come in. I then have them stop by the house and I work with them and really get them fired up. Then they start shooting better and pretty soon they want a real bow and they want to shoot on a regular basis. The used Genisis I found is at Wood and Feather archery in Tomball. He wants something like $167.00. I'd take a cheaper one if I could find it, and I'd even take a no name recurve that the Scouts could shoot in the 15-20 # range. This would not be "Troop" gear, but rather personal. Something that I can use to continue to teach these Scouts. Like I said I gave away for free 7 youth bows to Scouts and fellow TBH'ers (before the LSBA website was up) and now I have nothing to teach with.

As a side note I must mention that it took almost all 7 bows to be able to teach the Scouts, because of draw length and poundage. That is why I am looking for something like the recurve or the Genisis, however if someone else has any ideas I'm all ears.
