$600 Bow VS $2,500 Bow
Рет қаралды 304,196
Күн бұрын$600 Bow VS $2,500 Bow..Tim Connor has a good old fashioned versus video with the Bear Adapt bow, the same bow some of the @TheHuntingPublic use and a HOYT VTM 34.. These are two completely different bow rigs that I shoot and compare side by side.. It is a really fun video if you're curious about entry level bows versus flagship bows. In this video I feature the Bear Adapt bow and the Hoyt VTM 34. If you have any questions drop them in the comments. #archery #3darchery

Hey, I hope my comment didn’t upset you. It wasn’t a jab. Just an admission of reality. For us average guys, 50 yds is actually quite a long shot. We tend to compare ourselves to the top archers because they have the biggest channels. But most of us are just backyard warriors that enjoy shooting our bows.

I've bow hunted over 40 years, started with wooden arrows and a Bear recurve. I've had several Hoyt bows and PSE bows. Last new Hoyt i bought was a Defiant turbo , it shot 316 thru the chrono, then the PSE Evo came out. I heard all the hype so shot one. Fell in love ❤️ i immediately bought the Evo and sold my Hoyt. Evo shot 333 thru chronograph with 400 gr arrows that is the same as I always shoot. I buy bare bows and set them up how i want with QAD rest and HHA sights. You don't need an expensive bow to shoot any game in North America. I had a Bear RTH bow and it shot as good as any bow out there. Accuracy is in the shooter. Upgrade your rest and sights and any bow will kill and most newer bows mad will shoot plenty fast enough and you don't need 500 gr arrows for a deer. Biggest thing is practice practice practice!!! Every day if you only shoot 5 arrows a day shoot your bow !!!

I have a Bear Whitetail Legend that I bought just over two years ago as I was getting back into archery after a 20 plus year break, and have now upgraded to the Hoyt Ventum a few months ago. Although the Hoyt is more consistent, there is not a significant difference in the accuracy or consistency to justify the enormous difference in cost. If you’re curious about bow hunting, do like Tim suggested, go buy a Bear RTH, then get out there and start shooting/hunting. However, I would encourage everyone to first learn proper technique, then you’ll have a great time without having to break the bank.
@Lycurgus47 9 ай бұрын
I got a whitetail legend pro last year, had it about a month and the string stop started biting into the bus cable. Also the cable slide was cheap plastic and started wearing on the bow string almost immediately and had to be changed out. Once I brought it into the bow shop they told me they’d have to send it back to bear to get replaced. You get what you pay for. I used store credit and got a Ventum pro 30 and it has been well worth the price. One thing I’ve learned I’ve the years is, buy once cry once. If you skimp out on quality for price, you will regret it if it’s something you actually want to get into.

@tybowhunter8987 8 ай бұрын
@groundrootsoutdoors627 very true. A higher end bow vs a budget bow with the same attachment. The higher end will most likely do better. Then as well a bow with a bigger Brace height will be more forgiving and one with a smaller one will be faster if remember correctly. But both will definitely be enough to get someone out in the field shooting and hunting. The bigger thing us obviously the archer shooting it and how familiar they are with their equipment. Like I shoot my mathews v3 I am on target. But I change up and shoot someone's else's bow it will be different might not be far off but not as effective as one could be with it.

Interesting video. I've been bowhunting for for 44 yrs, and I've NEVER paid more than $350.00 for a bow. I've taken over 100 deer with what U guys call cheap bows. The difference is that I rarely ever shoot a deer over 15 yards. I've always gotten extremely close. I'm now interested in elk hunting, so I need to increase my distance shooting drastically. I'm grateful for Ur information here about the 2 bows and Ur confidence of the distance of both. Most deer that I've taken were point blank to 15 yds. Only shot a few beyond 25 yds.

Good video man. So, I just got an Adapt 1.0 not the plus, this July. I had custom strings put on it, got rid of the tube peep, dumped the TR sight for a CBE Tactic Micro 5 pin, left the TR V biscuit rest on it, put a TR 8” hitman stabilizer on it, and installed the cam stop, so nothin crazy. All still budget friendly upgrades. I have been practicing a lot with it and I can really stack em in there with it. I have a video on my IG shooting at 50 yards getting really a decent group(s) at a target about the size of a playing card, and that was after a lot of shooting that day and it was hot as hell and I was pretty fatigued, I have gotten even better groups at that range with it, arrows touching. I would mot hesitate to go to 60, 70, 80 and beyond with this bow, I, just max out at 50 at home. Anyway, with practice and form you can drop dimes with this bow. Thanks for the vid ✌️🇺🇸

And now 13:00 min into the video, I definitely don't regret it! As you said the Bear is a great introductory bow. Asked my local pro shop guys if more expensive bows are worth it. They didn't try to upsell me; just said they see a lot of guys come in and get an introductory bow and quickly "outgrow" it once they get some good experience in and they end up buying the next bow up the price line. I didn't want to have to buy a second time and upsold myself. It's been fun the last few months shooting targets and tournaments with my boy who has been at it for 3+ yrs already, but we need to get out hunting. Its funny, when I tried the Bear the tube kept pulling free too.

This was more about the shooter than the bow. I have a Bear Encounter either a drop away and a a truglo single pin and it shoots every bit as accurate as my hoyt carbon spyder. The only difference is the speed at 313fps vs. 350fps ibo. I've shot both of these bows in long range 3d courses out to 120 yards. The issue was the shooter in this video, 15" groups at 50 yards is something I've only seen with beginners. Furthermore, the draw cycle on a single cam bow is one of the smoothest cycles you can get, don't hesitate to buy a Bear bow and trick it out.

I shoot 4-5” 50 yard groups with my halon 32. No stabilizers. I’ve had many bows since my 2001 SQ2. When you find the bow you love, I don’t think there’s any reason to switch. I do like to watch videos on the newest stuff though. 🍿

I didnt see it in the comments already but what kind of chest pack is that?

Is that the Adapt + or standard Adapt? Looks like the upgraded +. Either way, I get that you were shooting the Bear as it comes. But, as you did mention that you would put a better stabilizer on it, and add a back bar, it would have been nice if you had swapped those parts from the Hoyt to the Bear so we were more closely comparing the bows rather than the added accessories. Just curious of how well a "dressed up" Adapt would do against a $$$$ premium bow setup.

Nice review. Obviously not apples to apples , but you make a great point about get a bow and go shoot it. It’s like golf… get some clubs and go hit them. I do have a question….how many bows have you set up this year? 3-4-5? A guy has to know!😊

Great vid, need more of this. How much to make the Bear better? As carbon flagships reach almost $2000 for a bare bow, a Bear bow might be better at some point! Take a flagship carbon bow, add high end string at setup, do the QAD, Tightspot, Stingers with offsets and kick back mounts and an HHA, your over $3000 with a dozen arrows. What do you gain? Real question! $3000 vs $1000 build off. "The best" vs "good enough!"🤔

Can you try the china bow.its a compound bow.and also can shoot bearing 12 mm.

I think if that bear drop away rest and a tubeless peep you’d get some speed out of it, not as fast as the Hoyt but close. I’ve gone away from the yolk/ buds cable cam system to the newer binary cams. Most of the bear bows now have those, and that yolk constantly gets out of tune, that’s what keeps me away from some of the cheaper bows now. With binary cams, I’ve had bows hold perfect timing and tune for a year.

I’m a flagship guy. But it would be cool to see if that bow would improve with better accessories.
