As a retired building contractor time and money were always in short supply. I agree with what you said, you don’t need to spend a ton of money have enjoy the great outdoors! I have taken numerous deer over the years with the cheapest bows I could afford. I am currently shooting 5 year old Diamond Edge SB-1 and it fills my freezer every year. Thanks for putting out some great videos!

loving the videos, also glad there's someone on youtube that reviews bows that people actually buy and tend to own not just all the flagships of the top companies.

To many amazing bows to just do flagships

They're a great bow for the price. I've been shooting one and have taken and heap of pigs here in Australia. They're no rocket ship, but for the arrow weight I''m using (500grams) it does it well. Most shots are under the 50m (56yrd) mark and I've had no issues with quite a few pass throughs. I'm a fan on single cam bows, and this model rocks. As a note; I'm running a 60lb bow, thought about the 70lb but I'm getting old (53) and this thing is a great bow. I hunt with blokes running way more expensive gear and we both do just as well as each other (the old adage rings true: "its the Indian not the arrow". I think Bear have nailed it with the components, they're nothing flash but the do the job. Well done Bear.

Totally correct about the Bear brand being more of a blue collar brand they don’t go crazy with their prices like other brands

@guardianminifarm8005 11 ай бұрын

Huge help. Well done. I had pretty much settled on the Legit or more likely the Species EV. But I shot these against an Adapt at my local shop. Now the Adapt plus hunting public is out. I believe that is going to be the ticket. This vid helped a good bit. Thank you.

I have the adapt and it is probably my second favorite bows I have had so far I did have a bear arena 34 before and I was better with it but I also have gotten better with the adapt the longer I have it. Definitely a great bow that is more affordable. I did put a cable roller on it and upgraded my peep and will be getting a different rest after season but definitely worth the $560 I spent for it more or less set up. Great video wish I would have seen the give away for this bow but I am now following on insta and and subscribed on here keep doing it. I eventually want to buy a used omnia but price is just too much right now for me . I work construction and have two little ones with a third in the way. Hard to justify $1500 on a new elite . Keep up the budget bow reviews man. Great stuff

You said that most of the bear bows are similar in noise. Also, a good amount of vibration. How would they compare to a 2007 PSE Nova? 😂 I’m really desperate for an upgrade. Need help deciding between the Adapt+, Legend XR, or Alaskan XT! Please vote!

Getting back into bow hunting again after a very long hiatus and definitely leaning towards the Bear Adapt after watching lots of videos. Still have to go shoot it though to see how that goes. Is it worth upgrading a little bit extra to get the adapt plus to get the extras it offers?

@illinoispublicland4680 Жыл бұрын

Just ordered mine today and I’m pumped. Have had an early 2000s Hoyt that’s killed some nice deer. Just could never justify spending $1200 on a brand new bow and that not including anything for the set up. Shot my friends adapt last week and couldn’t believe how great it felt shooting around. I agree on the review out past 60 I could slightly feel some give here and there but with time could see being more confident. But 50 and in was shooting dimes. I think they nailed it. I get it’s not the fastest or latest greatest tech. But that wasn’t their goal. Their goal was to stick to an easy to tune but well shooting bow that someone could order and go kill a deer that same day without having to go to an archery shop because they’re having a headache setting up. Really loved the review and shooting the bow looking forward to getting mine next week. Awesome job Bear and THP guys.

@drmitofit2673 Жыл бұрын

If you find this bow to be less steady at aiming, I would try shooting it without the plastic grip for the more solid and repeatable bare riser to hand feel like most target compound bows. You might also try widening the stance to shoulder width. As I have gotten older, my stance has widened to now slightly wider than shoulder width.

Hey brother. Viewer from down under here 🇦🇺 Buying my first bow, been watching alot of your videos lately. To be honest, i was pretty set on the THP bear adapt, picked that over the hoyt torrex, but then i watched your alaskain review. In your opinion, which is the better bow if you dont mind me asking that in. Public forum. I will hunt in a year or so, but out of the box with a few upgrades like stabilisers, etc, which would you pick. Cheers, brother, I love the videos and the feedback is easy to understand for a newcomer like myself

@BackyardBows 5 ай бұрын

If you plan on getting your own accessories I would go with the Alaskan bow only, gets some great speeds and is 4 lbs so u can dress it anyway you like and still is a light bow for long public hikes

If you like the Adapt's riser and ATA length, the Bear Resurgence with hybrid cams has more speed at 335 IBO, and the Bear Resurgence LD with single cam has even smoother draw at 310 IBO.
