Need help picking a speargun.

Hi, I am very new to spearfishing and haven't even gone spearfishing yet. I am 15 and I'm not absolutely sure that I have the strength to pull back one of the rubber bands on a gun. My dad bought one that had 2 bands and I can barely pull those back. Is there a good technique to making it easier to pull back the bands or should I buy a pneumatic gun. Also please give me some recommendations on pneumatic guns under $300.

Re: Need help picking a speargun.

Welcome to deeper blue dude. What gun have you got? I wouldn't worry about loading it, it is much much easier in the water, I think it is the balance you get that makes the difference. Even with that it's not strength but technique that is the main factor

Re: Need help picking a speargun.

Dude you are in FL, you can pm me with some stuff if you want. For a beginner gun, just tell me your, height and where you usually hunt? depth? what you usually go after?
ie: cuda, hog, grouper ....

Two guns come in mind RA Caranx or Tuna version(s) & Seac-Sub Asso cheap & extremely good + reliable.
