I was reading an archery manual from the middle ages, it said that when you are shopping for a bow it is a good idea to pull it back to your drawlength in the shop before you buy it because it was very common for new bows to break. It sounds like inferior products have been around for over 600 years.

I recently became interested in getting back into archery after a many year hiatus. I first saw one of your videos about a month ago and have watched them all. They are both educational and highly entertaining. Congratulations on all you have accomplished in a relatively short time. Keep up the phenomenal work you do.

The 30 lb version of this bow was delivered to my house two days ago. LOL I came to the same conclusion you did sir. I couldn't buy the materials to build a bow for less than I could buy this one for. I still hope to build one some day, but I've wanted to get into archery for a while, and this looks to be a good way. Thanks!

I started with a Black Hunter recurve but I bought the bow on its own and a better quality arm guard, tab, bow stringer and so on. I've been very happy with this, I now have more expensive, better quality bows yet I still enjoy my low poundage BH recurve

Due to past serious shoulder injuries I have had to sell ALL of my bow equipment. I have been wanting to get back into archery but with no luck finding a decent low poundage bow that I can draw properly. Because of you and your video of this particular bow, it the 30 pound draw, I will be looking into that one. I know that if I were to purchase it, my children would enjoy it as well. Please keep up your AWESOME videos as they are extremely informative and helpful.

About 2 years ago I found your video on how to make a longbow for 15 bucks, and since I was wanting to make a bow, I did it. Of course, that bow broke because I messed it up, but it sent me down a road that caused me to start selling my own bows out of PVC pipe. I've sold around 35 now, and have made probably somewhere around 75. This channel helped get me into archery, which is something that I love. Thanks!

Thanks to your videos I just started archery this summer after trying it a few times younger, I bought the cheapest 30-35lbs recurve I found. Very second day I took the handle off and made a custom one from birch, been hitting target from 10 meters now pretty much 90% of the time. Im thinking about upgrading and your videos are very educational! Maybe some day Ill be good enough to invest in your bow 😂

Hey guys, another great video. I ended up with the Blackhunter longbow, have since gotten recurve limbs for it up through 45#. That is a fine shooting platform for beginners like me. After that I got one of your bows, another great shooting bow which I love, it’s at 35#. Another bow I bought, before watching your negative review, was the $86 TopArchery 56” TD recurve at 40#, just received 45# limbs for it yesterday. I know you reviewed this bow as it came, but this is a great bow with minimal input. First I replace the continuous loop string with one of yours, my flipper rest did not fit but I had already ordered a plunger and flipper set up from Lancaster, it was cheap. I then installed some beaver fur string silencers and after some shooting have come to the determination that it’s my favorite shooting bow, but hey, I just started down this archery rabbit hole. Thanks again for great videos!

I being a person that only shoots recurves with metal risers & only American made recurves bows with American made limbs , I have seen people take a cheap Chinese bow & tweak it just a bit & shoot it as well as hunt with it just fine , I’ve seen them last 2 minutes & I’ve seen them last for well over 25 years . It’s just about how well of a bow you want , doing your research on the bow as well as the company that makes them , the up keep of the bow & knowing all the secrets on how to make any bow work well & how much you want to spend on any bow .

All my bows have either been given to me or second hand ... though some are very good quality... they've always been way behind in the bell shaped curve because of the age . However I've made some ok bows ... low poundage and not too serious... just for fun. But love doing it. And I really like the one you make ! And you are helping me learn more...

Another issue with these is they are very seldom available in left hand. Ive purchased a couple over the years when a lefty came up just to have a throw around bow. After dumping around 20 arrows thru one of them, the handle delammed just in front of the shelf above where your thumb rests and completely split on the following shot. I didnt know they used bamboo for the handles so I guess you learn something new everyday... great vid...😉

My favorite go-to bow from there is actually the Mandarin Duck Phantom which I got actually from ASDW which is pretty much same thing like is that with a Black Hunter and different companies. One thing I thought about trying was getting the Black Hunter long bow limbs and seeing if they fit on the Mandarin Duck Phantom riser.
