Awesome video. I just bought my first compound bow yesterday.
Coming from a rifle background.
Where is the address of your shop in New York Manhattan or not?
You are really good, thanks for taking the time to go in depth
garbage advice. what did i even watch
Ty very much for the video…looking to get into.bow hunting and learned a lot of the nomenclature
This was really helpful! Thanks so much!
Lets be honest compound bows is archery with training wheels . Designed to make everything easily repeatable/consistent, which is the essence of archery .
Thanks for taking the time to record this
I have spinal stenosis what bow would be good for me I want a bow
Very informative, exactly what I needed, thanks bud!!! 👍
Was this dude military? His physique is insane. Not a guy to start with.
Flagship bows aren’t always the most tunable. I’ve got a Diamond Infinite Edge Pro that tuned up perfectly with the arrow at perfect centershot, and the string perfectly plumb with the riser. Best score with this bow in my league’s 300 shoot was respectable 287, which was higher than some of the guys shooting the newest Mathews target bows. Also, used flagship bows may be better suited for a new archer who wants an excellent quality bow at a lower price-point without breaking the bank. I bought an almost-brand-new Bowtech Destroyer 350 seven years ago for $350. My friend bought it on a whim at 70-lbs when it first came out, but he couldn’t draw it back more a few times even after lowering it to 60-lbs, so he never shot it again. I also bought a dry-fired RPM 360 with bent cams that the owner didn’t feel like putting money into fixing, so I bought it for $100 and got new cams for it at cost. Did that again on a dry-fired Prodigy. All 3 used flagship bows cost me 2/3 the price of a current flagship bow.
My current favorite setups are my Bear Whitetail Maxx and Alaskan XT bows, which combined fully set up, costs half of what a current flagship bow all set up costs. Most of the modern flagship bows, like you said, have a lot of moving parts – too many, if you ask me. Some of these innovations just seem to me to be solutions looking for problems. I like my bows simple – static split yoke cable(s) that lets me yoke tune, 3 strings instead of 5, shimming cams instead of mechanically shifted cams (always subject to mechanical failure), nice beefy risers that has some meat to them with weight that lets me hold steadier. I’m calling it now that some of these new bows with the skeletonized risers will suffer structural failure due to metal fatigue, especially on the really long riser ones.
Personally, I’d start out a new archer with a mid-range priced bow, like the two Bears I mentioned. Both of these bows are excellent shooters that are on par with some of the flagship bows costing more than double.
Anyway, nice video. Sorry for the hijack. 😜
Your beard would have my wife buying anything from you Bro!!!😂
Very helpful. Been wanting to get into bow hunting but was a little intimidated by lack of knowledge. Thanks for breaking down the bow and buying process.
sweet shirt dude is that your merch?
can a compound bow be operated like a traditional bow, especially like a horse bow, like draw without the holding tool, fast shooting and so?
Need to know where you got the shirt!!
love the video. i want to get myself and my little boys to start getting into Archery for possibly hunting in the future but definitely want to get started. Is there a shop that your company can strongly recommend for same service quality in the Southern California area?
I wrecked my left elbow, in 2010. I deeply desire to switch over to left handed shooting. It feels like a big leap. not sure where to start…
Thank you for the good info!
Thanks for the very informative information I cant wait to get started
Steroids for sure
⚠️⚠️⚠️Is there anything I need to think about before I choose my bow When I do the triangle test My eyes go to the same distance each side So I don’t know if I need left or right i’m a right handed person 😮⚠️⚠️
Id love to see a video of an in house competition between Zakk and JR.
Trying to get into bow hunting been binging all of this content
Does it matter what hand you hold the bow in. I’m left eye dominant, does that mean I have to hold the bow in my right and draw with my left.
Great shirt! Helpful video:)
do you need a license for 1?
Thanks for providing a solid reference video!
Thanks, great content for beginners, I love them, on my fiffth, trx-38 w/ long front bar and short rear bar.
But beginners getting into archery if they are like me 64 years old on SSDI disabled vet and there is absolutely no way I can come up with somewhere around 1500-2000$ for a bow and then set it up. But appreciate the vote of confidence. I will have to stick to Amazon and hand me downs from people. 😁
Really like your video.good quality stuff
That’s an awesome shirt! What shirt is it?
This was awesome great information y’all are about a 5 hour drive and I definitely don’t mind driving for great service and y’all’s willingness to just help new people
THIS VIDEO IS A JOKE,I SPENT OVER 2000.00 WITH THIS STORE AND THEY MADE SEVERAL MISTAKES WITH MY SET UP,
Thank you. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. You said a lot of things I was thinking.
He’s fine😮
Appreciate your time, I’m definitely looking forward to getting started. Just got to find someone here in Texas DFW area that is willing to help a 60 year get started. I did some archery stuff while growing up and I really enjoyed it. Things in life kind of bridged me onto another path……. now I think that retirement is around the corner moving back to the country it’s time to enjoy things just for me…….
So the bow world is just as expensive as the gun world
Great Advice
Thanks for The video 🤟
Great video, thanks for the info!
bros so jacked he could just yeet the arrows instead, goddamn
New to all this-forgive my ignorance-Would it be advisable to go to an archery range to rent and train before buying?
What is a stabilizer bar? What is it purpose?
thanks brother
I’ve loved archery since childhood. I did Kyudo (Japanese archery), but I wanna start with a compound bow. I just enjoy shooting.
I was thinking of getting one but had to pass because I have bad back problems
Very helpful wish you were local to me
Hey this is really good video but I ordered a bow from Amazon for about 200$ and it works fine for me and it was very easy to tune and stuff and I think you should make a video and educate us about why we should get a higher end bow❤
