    What a GREAT video. 341.2k views at this point. My bow story started out in the early 70's. I was shooting nocks. After being away for awhile a couple of years ago I decided to get back into bows and wavered between a crossbow and a recurve. I chose the crossbow, of course. Oh, it's the gun of bows alright...but a complete boat anchor to haul around and negative minus 40 balance. I'm still pining for the recurve. Used to be around here there were bow specialists on every corner. All gone. So I see for under a couple of hundred bucks I can get a good (new)quality recurve and all the doodads. My wife will not be happy one of these days.
    Learned two new things...the twist and the three finger under method. What a GREAT video! Thanks, if you're still around. Neat! Gonna stash it away for the day.

      @@goodlux777 Well sure Rob. Except unlike a gun there is no balance to 'em. Takes brute force or a real good prop to shoot the things for top accuracy.

      Can I suggest you watch a few you tube videos of seasoned archers firing their arrows. Watch everything they do - how they stand, hold their bow, how far they draw back the arrow etc, and try to copy their habits. If you do, you will become an excellent archer!

    • @billeugene3842
      @billeugene3842 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      You only twist the string IF you need to increase or decrease the brace height of the bow. Depending on string type it will also 'stretch' at first. It is not really stretching so much as it is 'tightening' up the twists allowing the string to lengthen. It usually takes several times of stringing and unstringing the bow the first couple dozen shots to get brace height set up. Good luck.

    • @AndreDrougge
      @AndreDrougge 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oswaldo Gutierrez Just as a tip, if you're a beginner - do not go by these poundage guidelines. 40-50 pound limbs for a beginner is just nuts.
      You need to be able to shoot ~70-100 arrows at a time, to enjoy the sport and not hurt yourself, go with a lower poundage draws weight. Limbs are pretty cheap so if you want to increase draw weight when your back muscles are used to it, it wont be expensive.
      If I would have started with 40-50 pounds draw weight, I would have only been able to shoot 10-15 arrows before losing form. That kills the enjoyment of shooting really.

Over twenty years ago I was shooting 50-60 lbs compound while others were shooting 70. Speed was the in thing and I watched them struggle while I enjoyed easily pulling back every time. Amazingly I had no problems ever killing deer, etc. Glad to see delusion still exists.

    What he says about putting the nock half an inch higher is very important. When I set mine up, I logically assumed that I'd nock an arrow, then use a square to square the arrow with the string, then put the nock above. This shot horribly, the arrow kicked way out as it flew and I didn't know what was going on at first.

    if this is your first bow I would definitely, definitely recommend 35 pounds. this will help you immensely with properly practicing form and consistency when shooting. the muscle memory will develop with time and with the Sage you can get higher poundage limbs at that time. IMO anything above 35 for a new shooter is a bad idea

    • @chadwagner2037
      @chadwagner2037 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I think trying out different draw weight bows at a shop in person can be much better than online recommendations from anyone including your 35# recommendation. Doing this, a shop can set you up with the correct length arrows, arrow spine and field point weight as well for the bow that will work for you. For example I bought the 45# sage starting out completely new a month ago after trying out bows in a pro shop and it was a good starting weight for me; however, I'm 6'1" with an athletic build and 30" draw length so I can't speak for most. They also measured my actual draw weight at the 30 inches which was 48ish pounds with the bow I purchased.

    That is the exact bow that I got today. BUT like a fool I did get the 50lb..... probably should have gotten the 30 to 40. My arms are not as big as yours at all, and yours were shaking a bit. So I may order a different one tomorrow, let one of the kids (30 yr olds...haaa) have this one. But your instruction is greatly appreciated, sir.
