Don't worry, I have quite a few things on the review list, but the Wild Edge steps should be next up.

Cool. I'm pretty sure they are the right direction for me with or without a saddle (might be heading in that direction also). Unless you chime in and say they aren't worth it. I've been a climbing stand user most of the way and tried sticks this last year (tired of searching for the right tree) and didn't like it. Too heavy and bulky when combined wth a hang on stand.

Thanks Curtis, I think you'll really like that BX32. Dont forget there's a discount code for that too.

Isaac Barnett not all are. You can get some really great recurves under 6-700 dollars. This is like the yeti cooler of recurves lol theyre nice but the price is inflated.

I have a few different arrow setups. Right now my hunting arrows are VAP 400 with Stainless outserts and 200 grain heads. 50 pounds is plenty for hunting with the right arrow mass and broadhead choice.

The rest I have is a springy rest from Pat Norris archery.

@@DIYSportsman thanks :-)

No, but on many bows you can build up grips using Instamorph or epoxy putty. Jake Kaminski has a video on his channel showing how he modifies the grips on his Olympic recurves that way.

@@DIYSportsman I already use metal handled recurves, ie. Bear TD with either 60" or 56" lengths. But what I don't have with the metal handled Bear TD are longbow limbs, which I feel are smoother to draw and definitely quieter upon release, plus less susceptible to torque. I have a wood handled takedown longbow with recurve style grip that I really love. It is 60" but does not have the stabilizer bushing and I think not enough wood where I need to place one. That is why I liked everything about the RK-1 except the grip. Believe it is lighter in mass weight than either my metal handled Bear TD or my wood handled TD longbow. I think using the method you mention above about building up the grip would be difficult to get it where I like it-that is a medium wrist grip. Thanks for great videos.

You could build up your own custom grip using instamorph or epoxy putty and shape it however you'd like to suit your preference (high/medium etc - Jake Kaminski has a video on how to do this). That narrow grip is probably one of my favorite features on the bow. It's so much easier to get a consistent, low torque grip compared to some of the wider or more contoured styles I've tried.

@@DIYSportsman it's a good point. Just personal preference...the thin style grips are one of the things I dislike the most about compound bows. Different folks different strokes. Great review though.

I got it dipped from New Breed Archery.

Yes, what quiver are you using?

I've posted and will continue to post every deer hunting video I feel has enough content to be post-worthy. Last year I only shot one deer so there wasn't a lot of footage to make into videos, unless I start doing more vlog/season update style videos.

The stabilizer is a Limbsaver S Coil mini. It doesn't really stabilize at that length but soaks up a little vibration and holds the wrist sling on. The rest is a springy rest from Pat Norris Archery with a small piece of teflon heat shrink on the spring.

@@DIYSportsman thanks mate, do you think that there're better options for a stabalizer? Greetings from germany

@@Shiwwy It depends on what you're looking for. If you want to steady your aim, you will need something longer. I'd recommend 12"+, and ever longer if you just want to do target archery (the long stabilizers get hard to maneuver for hunting). If you are just looking to reduce a little vibration at the shot, the little limbsaver does fine.

@@DIYSportsman thanks for the reply, helped me a lot...im going with an 8"

@@DIYSportsman hey fella, another question i love Black Eagle arrows, which arrows would you get for the Striker ?
