So after a lot of debate internally I have decided to order another Compound bow. I had some serious shoulder bicep and scapula surgery a few years back and picked up a crossbow to be able to continue my outdoor enjoyment. I have zero issue with the crossbow but I truely missed using my bow so I ordered a Elite Remady and due to shortages for just about everything right now it won’t be here till hopefully mid May. My question to you all is do I go ahead and order some of the accessories and such now to include shafts and possibly heads due to the long lead times?

I've been waiting on a Bowtech since Feb 1, and was just told 3 more weeks minimum.

I went ahead and ordered everything except arrow shafts and broadheads. I have my rest, sight, stabilizer, custom string, and the rest all in a box waiting. I already knew exactly what I wanted, so there was no reason to wait. I'm not getting arrows early because I don't know exactly what will end flying best. I do have several test shafts waiting though.
 
Shafts and inserts and really anything that may have aluminum or other very hard to get materials in it I guessed would be the real time concern for everything I may want to get coming. As for all other things I spoke to the bowshop and he feels like he has everything except maybe a string but I’m not overly concerned about that yet. Thank you for the response guys.
 
I ordered 2 bows and everything needed, that was available, to complete my setups. Still waiting on both bows, probably June for the one rest/sight/bow... Not sure on the arrow arrival times, but I have 250 Airstrikes and 300 Axis 4mm on order already... Order what you need when you can!
