Why I'm Boycotting Sanlida Archery and Why I Think You Should Too

Sanlida Archery steals from archers and the archery community at large and I think it's shameful and I cannot keep quiet about what happened with my relationship with ‪@SanlidaArchery‬. ‪@WorldArcheryTV‬ should re-consider letting them be affiliated with their organization.

I saw the images in the instruction manual. It was very suspicious that they were actual screenshots of your videos (with the picture-in-picture target cam) rather than any actual marketing effort. I've received the same request to use my likeness for promotion. It was tempting for a fleeting moment, but after seeing this, it's clear that they will take first.

@brianfreland9065 3 ай бұрын

i agree with you 100% but the issue is affordability. getting a great bow thats ready to shoot and comes with all the arrows and accesories etc for 130 bucks is just what ppl are going to do when the only other options are 500 bucks and thats for just the bow. the industry really needs to work on getting more affordable options if they dont want ppl flocking to the foreign afordable ones. like the royal x9 at 130 bucks ready to shoot with everything included vs a 400 dollar three rivers bow. when you need a bow and dont have any extra income, youre going to buy that royal x9 anyways.

sadly, they are a Chinese based business, and there is no real way for Jake or anyone else to take them to court as it would be court in China. lots of products are made in china such as Win & Win but the company is not located in China so there is a credible backing if something where to happen such as IP theft or Image theft. thus you get good response from Win & Win or who ever else. but as Sanlida are China based he likely has no way to be compensated, and no deterrence, so they will likely continue. I will join him in boycotting them though I generally very careful about company reputation anyway.

Sanlida has great bows with great pricing in my experience (as a new archer) I’ve fired more expensive bows from my parents and grandparents, I don’t know, I don’t really see what the issue here is. As a new archer I think the most important thing for people getting into the sport is price, if they make a good quality and lower price bow, that’s all what matters. Honestly. No disrespect but you assuming a country with generally different copyright laws would follow the standards of American copyright law (and yes I know international copyright law isn’t VASTLY different) is just kinda silly. It sucks they used your likeness, but honestly it’s not like for me personally I was gonna buy a bow cause they have a photo of you or anyone else.

Hi Jake. Having shot recurve competitively as a junior (and did very well) I am now shooting again, for recreation, after many years away from the sport. I so wish I had kept at it back then. Anyway, I've watched a lot of your videos, all of which have helped enormously in bringing me back into the fold. The kit has technically advanced, but the shooting principals seem much the same. It is such a shame to see this video and I can understand how annoying it must be to have your achievements abused in this manner.

As a former archer in olympic recurve, I was also curious and I almost got into buying one of the kits. Now seeing this video and learning they benefit from lies, it is definitely shameful of them to do so. Albeit, the kit seemed really promising for me to pick up shooting again after 15 year pause from archery. Now I need to reconsider and perhaps find and set up some other kit with good budget, as 1000 seems to be just fine for restarting. Thanks for this video, Jake!

A few months ago I saw Jake's images and video on the Sanlida site, and my reflex was "he's sponsored now". Excellent reaction on your part! As we say in France, "les cons ça ose tout, c'est à cela qu'on les reconnait" (jerks dare anything, that's how you know them).
