I bought the 40lb bow just now lol. If at all possible when you find the time, can you make a short video on how to slightly upgrade it? Maybe a few changes you would do to yours... would be awesome. Appreciate the videos and thank you for setting these kids up.
You put up a video and I watch it. Usually more than once. If that's just once a month, that's fine. If it's every day, that's fine. Just . . . _thank you for not whining, bitching, griping, moaning or complaining about "views" and such._ I've been with ya for a _really_ long time now. Many others have come and gone, but I have been loyal and supportive of you and your mission precisely because you have been solid for us, your subscribers, for the entire time. I've spent thousands at your "store". When I was a child I had subscriptions to _Outdoor Life, Field and Stream_ , and _Popular Mechanics_ . I joined the Cub Scouts and only left the organization when there was no longer a Den close enough to our rural area for me to remain joined with. We were poor. And there were no adults in our community willing to take on the role of leadership. But we had a good man at the local Church that had a boys club organization set up by his church. He taught us everything the Boy Scouts would have, but without the propaganda, the uniforms, or the BS. Those days are gone now. And a lot of us former subscribers to _Outdoor Life, Field and Stream_ , and _Popular Mechanics_ are now subscribers to you and the Pathfinder Team. Just want you to know, you are appreciated by a lot of people you'll never meet, but whom know you just a little all the same.
Bought one of these 40lb bow's afew years ago, on the seller's web page it said the brace hight is 9.4" = 23.8cm. On the arrow shelf, I've glued on two 6mm carbon rodes each 10mm long, horizontal and vertical. Forming a L in the middle of the arrow shelf. Over that I glued some thin leather stripps 10x50mm, (25mm being the middle,over the carbon rodes) to form an arrow rest. As well as that, I've fitted/bolted on a black "5 Arrows Bow Quiver Holder Quick Release Rack' This makes it looks deadly, being all black. I call it my Urban Combat Bow.
Thanks for the wilderness outfitters archery flashback. I loved seeing you and Iris shooting 3d targets together. Yes, I've been a viewer/student that long.
Dave with a bow…. It’s like we’re traveling back in time !!!! I love all your content brother !!! Your videos and your books are my go to library for information. Thanks man !
The best part of the ambidextrous handle is the ability to practice the ancient way of shooting arrows to the outside of the bow for faster load time. Definitely not a modern way of shooting, but worth mentioning.
I’ve been teaching archery professionally to kids from ages 8-16 for the past six years. I highly recommend this bow to all of my students. It’s extremely sturdy and handles abuse well, especially when you have that one particular student who dry fires the bow after you tell them not to.
Thanks for what you are doing for the kids this day and time finding someone interested in teaching a kid something more than a video game is hard to do.
I bought this bow for small game hunting and in a pinch, deer hunting. I also would like to see a video of you upgrading this bow and what you would do to it. Thanks for the video Dave about this bow.
Only thing I'd do is put a metal band around the raw cut fiberglass, so it doesn't fray out over time. Little epoxy and you'd have a much tougher limb. ;)
If you look around you can find the black hunter for $60. Thats a good bow if your draw length is max 29 inch. And you can choose between recurve or long bow.
Funny you'd Upload this Mr Canterbury...I have this Exact Bow, Among Others...Last Season we did an Experiment with Cheap Recurves...This bow 40 lbs , The Arrows that came with it are Lawn Jarts. But Holloween evening 2023 I sent a 500 Spine Gold tip with a 125 Gr VPA HEAD Straight through a Doe at 15 yards...This Bow, (40lbs) is more than Capable of bringing down Game... Good video Brother 👍🏻
I went on Amazon and bought one. I enjoy archery and decided to add this to my collection. I have a Samich Sage which I paid about $100 that works great. It also is a take down with a wood riser. I also have a slingshot that shoots arrows. Very powerful in a small package. Thanks for the videos. I've learned so many things from you. Thank you.
Please do a video on the same 40 pound bow after you have used it for a few months in the field. Would love to see how it holds up after months of use. Thanks. I would worry abit a the screws and nuts. If they are cheap soft threads they could strip out after a few take downs and assembly.
*Thanks for the video, the short review, and the demo.* I could see purchasing several dozen inexpensive carbon fiber arrow shafts properly spined for the 40# bow; applying nocks, vanes, and threaded inserts; and then searching for a set of complimentary small game points, bird points, fishing points, and broadhead points that would all shoot to the same point of aim, more or less, as one another. Along with some sort of rudimentary field quiver, a glove/tab/thumb ring, and a pair of elevated arrow rests, one would be all set except for the necessary practice to become a competent archer. *I wonder if there's any way to shoot this bow Asiatic style with a thumb ring? I'm ambidextrous, and the 40# bow would be my maximum weight for this 70-year-old man with osteoarthritis in both shoulders. I've been looking at inexpensive asiatic recurve bows because they're generally speaking the only ones commonly available that are designed from the get-go to be shot ambidextrous, which my doctor insists on my doing to alleviate unnecessary stress on my right side rotator cuff tendons.*
I made a few pvc bows after watching backyard bowyer channel some years back and they packed a good punch. I bought the driveway markers to go inside etc. I left them when we moved but for a little while i was getting into archery. May have to pickup this bow and get back into it
I have that same bow iirc! It's great! My wife and I also gave one to my cousin. Anyways I just wanted to say thank you for all you do to help others. Whenever I need a tv show that's like an old friend that's both a comfort and helps me get my mind back right I know I can put on those old episodes of Dual Survival that you and Cody did. It's always happy to see you pop up on TH-cam as well. Whenever I think of you and Lundin I think both y'all are good people I appreciate them being friendly to me in this world even if just from me being a distant fan perspective albeit a distant fan that takes y'all's life lessons to heart quite often! God bless y'all!
As of this date 07/28/24, the bows have gone up in price a few bucks, but are still south of $50, they are a great deal at that price too. A very good place to start Dave; thanks for sharing what you know.
2 years ago I left my bow at my friend's cabin. The next week I was invited to go shoot the next weekend. I bought the 40# real quick on Amazon with next day delivery and I been loving it ever since then. Tough and accurate little bow for $40
Thanks for the heads up on this Dave. Very interesting in a follow up video with the recommended upgrades you mentioned. Appreciate you and all you do.
I have a 10 year old portable recurve 45 pound bow. Ive used it many times and have taken it with me for hundreds of rallys since many states ban firearms and most rallys are in the wilderness.
Ordered. I am not a hunter, I like bushcrafting, etc, but I prefer to use snare wire traps... However, this lightweight bow will be a good item in my BOB, just for any emergency situation...
Picked up one very similar to these a few months ago that's a 40 lbs draw weight but the riser and grip are wooden. It works well, but I might get one like this with the synthetic material.
Dave, can you guys look at getting a twig stove made for the Grayl nesting cup that fits around it like the cup and canteen sets have? I would buy it in a heartbeat
These types of bow 🏹 are very quiet compared to compound bows and compound crossbows , a small length of inner tube rubber on the limbs helps to reduce vibration noise even further. Very simple and effective with two single blade bevel edge points nothing fancy which helps the point roll off bone 🦴 and continue instead of stopping.
When I was a little kid I had a sweet translucent green fiberglass longbow. Loved that thing. We'd shoot it in the field behind my friends house all the time.
I already have several good recurves and other bows, but on your recommendation I just bought one of these 40 lb bows on Amazon to stick in a pack. Great video Sir as always.
If I remember right (because it was several years ago) your first video I ever watched - or one of the first, for sure, you were showing how to make a stick bundle bow for survival hunting. The channel, if I remember right, was still called Pathfinder or maybe Pathfinder School. I always thought that was the coolest thing even though I admit I never got around to trying it. I haven't seen many other people show that method for creating a bow, either.
I was just gifted last weekend a $99 Top Archery takedown resin wood riser longbow. I have and have shot a LOT of bows over my years and I am impressed at the solid performance of the Top Archery longbow I was gifted. They are a steal as far as I'm concerned. As for your videos Dave, I've followed you since 2008. I'll watch all your video regardless of the posting time. You are a wealth of knowledge and I appreciate your postings for as you say "the common man" . Keep up the great work....
I don't get much views either, but it won't stop me from going into the woods ! You need to make money, but TH-cam exclusively fore the money ? That ain't me. 😁 I am looking into getting a bow, so your series is just timed perfectly !
Dave, Just watched the video for this bow, I’m wondering how it would work with the “take-down” arrows…if they work good, that would be an awesome combo for a packable survival kit !
Look forward to seeing you use one of those in a overnight camp scenario . Love your work Dave. Got your books. Got your subscription. Waving the hand from Australia 👍🤠🇦🇺
Could you please place a link for this bow on your Amazon affiliate page? It would be most appreciated. Thank you, and thank you for all of the excellent knowledge that you provide so generously
I have the same bow. I shortened the limbs by a little bit to increase my draw weight. Removing the molded end caps was not easy, but it can be done. Decreasing the length helps as well. It’s fiberglass, it’s integrity is fine unless it dry fired. Please remember to teach NEVER DRY FIRE. Drop and give me a HUNDRED push ups, and money to replace the limbs. Depending on strength, a single dry fire will destroy a bow. Thanks for letting me know, not every decision I make is stoopad
I like this bow in the 40 # range and with it being ambidextrous and the fact that I also shoot that way from my tree stand for either side that the game comes from it makes it easier to use that way do you happen to remember what the brand name is of the bow? And the fact that I also practice survival and Bush craft on a regular basis it will help a lot as a game getter bow. Thank you for this.
Please do another video once you've dressed one up a little. It would be interesting to see the true hunting capabilities of one of those with a few bucks added, like you suggested. Good video!
A lot of the reviews state these often come in way lighter than their stated poundage. Did you measure yours or get the feel that it was at or close to 40#?
After watching your video, *I'm considering buying a bow that is easily manageable while sitting on my wheelchair. Any recommendations?* | 14 years ago, my wife and I enjoyed watching you on the Dual Survival series. | Archery was an elective class at a preparatory school I had attended during the mid 70's in Orlando FL., I liked it and was good at it.
I shoot that same bow almost daily. Unfortunately it is mislabeled as a recurve. It is in fact a longbow. As is evidenced by the fact that the string doesn't touch the curve at the tip. Other than that, it is a great shooting bow. If I didn't have 4 bows I'd likely shoot it daily, but gotta know all of them. And it's even better being ambidextrous, I seem to have a few lefty friends! For a better rest than provided I use the loops part of stick on 'velcro' If you are gonna buy a backpack bow, and you like that one: spend a little more and buy a Black Hunter take down. You will not regret it.
Curious now since I’m just somewhat getting into Archery. If you had to make improvements on this particular bow, what would you do and what products would you use?
I don't care how often you upload videos. It is better to make a video when you see the need for it, rather than trying to come up with something just because you need to upload a video this week, or every day.
Dang, i think I like that better than my SAS, would prefer a 50 or 60 of course, but still, that is a darn simple and fine bow. Would not feel bad at all having a backup like that, and for emergencies, sure a lot easier to grab and go than all the compoud gear.
I bought the 40lb bow just now lol. If at all possible when you find the time, can you make a short video on how to slightly upgrade it? Maybe a few changes you would do to yours... would be awesome. Appreciate the videos and thank you for setting these kids up.

I would be interested in knowing how the bows held up during the youth event. Can you do a post event review?

I'm impressed with that bow . I looked on Amazon and there are 60 lb risers that can be purchased separately.
The best part of the ambidextrous handle is the ability to practice the ancient way of shooting arrows to the outside of the bow for faster load time. Definitely not a modern way of shooting, but worth mentioning.

It's awesome that you're doing stuff for the youth Dave. They need this
I love all the information I get from you. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and knowledge. Bless you, Dave!
Definitely interested in this. I'm all for videos like this! Appreciate all you do, Dave. I've learned SO MUCH from your videos.
I bought this bow for small game hunting and in a pinch, deer hunting. I also would like to see a video of you upgrading this bow and what you would do to it. Thanks for the video Dave about this bow.

Dave use a framing square for leveling the knock mark. Works easily. Good luck brother hope you an the kids have fun.

Nate
Thanks for the heads up on this Dave. Very interesting in a follow up video with the recommended upgrades you mentioned. Appreciate you and all you do.
I just bought one. Been looking for a good one for a while now. Thanks for the suggestion!!
They are great little bows, I've got one I set up specifically for bow fishing.
I have a 10 year old portable recurve 45 pound bow. Ive used it many times and have taken it with me for hundreds of rallys since many states ban firearms and most rallys are in the wilderness.
That's such an awesome bow, Dave!! Thanks for sharing this with us! Im definitely going to look into this as a hunting/survival bow!!
Ordered. I am not a hunter, I like bushcrafting, etc, but I prefer to use snare wire traps... However, this lightweight bow will be a good item in my BOB, just for any emergency situation...
Thanks, Dave. You're awesome. As always, add some camo wrap to the lams and she would look gorgeous
Looks like it would be great for bow fishing. Takes me back to the first time i caught your channel. Great video as always.
I have the 40lb one and its awesome for just leaving in a cabin and not having to worry about it because of deterioration or cost.
So awesome shat you're doing for the youth let alone what you're doing for us all by sharing so much. Thank you!
Way to go Dave, you have a great project and this helps many people.
Picked up one very similar to these a few months ago that's a 40 lbs draw weight but the riser and grip are wooden. It works well, but I might get one like this with the synthetic material.
Dave, can you guys look at getting a twig stove made for the Grayl nesting cup that fits around it like the cup and canteen sets have? I would buy it in a heartbeat
That is awesome to see you giving to a youth program. I will be looking into that for sure
Thanks Dave. I've been looking for exactly this for the very reasons that you mention.
No worries bud, we love when ya do post, and appreciate your content. Always great to know reviews and observations for vital tools and skills.
These types of bow 🏹 are very quiet compared to compound bows and compound crossbows , a small length of inner tube rubber on the limbs helps to reduce vibration noise even further. Very simple and effective with two single blade bevel edge points nothing fancy which helps the point roll off bone 🦴 and continue instead of stopping.
Would love to see the upgrades you would make to it. I inherited one just like it and I'd love to see what you would do to it.
Thank you Dave! I think I will pick one up soon to start practicing! Do you think this bow would be fine for deer hunting at close range?
I tell ya dave my 46 pound magnum recurve Fred bear bow would work .so a 40 lb now could put meat on the table . No doubt man
When I was a little kid I had a sweet translucent green fiberglass longbow. Loved that thing. We'd shoot it in the field behind my friends house all the time.
I already have several good recurves and other bows, but on your recommendation I just bought one of these 40 lb bows on Amazon to stick in a pack. Great video Sir as always.
Oh man, Dave I ain't seen your videos in a few years. Glad TH-cam notified me of this one! Keep on rockin dude
If I remember right (because it was several years ago) your first video I ever watched - or one of the first, for sure, you were showing how to make a stick bundle bow for survival hunting.

If you buy multiple bows, mark both top and bottom limbs. Love your channel Dave
And Hoyt has a shark metal riser take down bow 50 lb limbs that’s 169 dollars .bad to the bone .but at 39 bucks I agree that’s hard to beat
I was just gifted last weekend a $99 Top Archery takedown resin wood riser longbow. I have and have shot a LOT of bows over my years and I am impressed at the solid performance of the Top Archery longbow I was gifted. They are a steal as far as I'm concerned.

great video dave canterbury that mega great helping kids learning survival camping skills
Dave I really love the bow ❤and the ideas you gave to make it better thanks
Would be nice to put a storage slot on the riser to hold that allen key...
Awesome work for the lucky kids and an impressive bow for that price!!!! I love your passion and enthusiasm.
Just got the 40 pound in the mail and it’s exactly as it is in this video.
Haven’t tried it yet but so far it looks pretty good. 😊
I don't get much views either, but it won't stop me from going into the woods ! You need to make money, but TH-cam exclusively fore the money ? That ain't me. 😁
I am looking into getting a bow, so your series is just timed perfectly !
Dave,
Just watched the video for this bow, I’m wondering how it would work with the “take-down” arrows…if they work good, that would be an awesome combo for a packable survival kit !
Dave, obrigado por seus ensinamentos, grande abraço aqui do Brasil. 👍👍👍
Enjoy your videos
Look forward to seeing you use one of those in a overnight camp scenario . Love your work Dave. Got your books. Got your subscription. Waving the hand from Australia 👍🤠🇦🇺
Only 10$ more on Amazon Canada and anything usually is twice the price, I'm definitely getting one! Maybe 2,...
Would love to see how you would upgrade it!
That's really cool fir the kids. More people should do things like that
Good to see you David!
Could you please place a link for this bow on your Amazon affiliate page? It would be most appreciated. Thank you, and thank you for all of the excellent knowledge that you provide so generously
I have the same bow.
I shortened the limbs by a little bit to increase my draw weight.
Removing the molded end caps was not easy, but it can be done. Decreasing the length helps as well. It’s fiberglass, it’s integrity is fine unless it dry fired.
Please remember to teach NEVER DRY FIRE.
Drop and give me a HUNDRED push ups, and money to replace the limbs. Depending on strength, a single dry fire will destroy a bow.
Thanks for letting me know, not every decision I make is stoopad
My dad killed many deer with a 40lb recurve.. so did my uncle, cousins and all their friends. Nothing to scoff at. Thanks David🎩
Love you and your channel Dave! Haven't shot a bow in 20 years and I've always been wanting to get into archery, is this a decent beginner bow?
I like this bow in the 40 # range and with it being ambidextrous and the fact that I also shoot that way from my tree stand for either side that the game comes from it makes it easier to use that way do you happen to remember what the brand name is of the bow? And the fact that I also practice survival and Bush craft on a regular basis it will help a lot as a game getter bow. Thank you for this.
As a beginner, idloveto see your upgrades on the 50 buck bow.. thanak u thi for taking the time, showing how to putittog in gonna vrab One
Haven't shot a bow in years but this one would be perfect for my boys to learn on excellent video
Thx for sharing Your knowledge and experience Sir
Have you considered using the Cub Scout Day Camp model for something like this?
We approved. Cheers for sharing from Australia.
Thank you for the videos brother i used your black powder shotgun shell reloading videos to do some my self thankyou for the useful information.
Please do another video once you've dressed one up a little. It would be interesting to see the true hunting capabilities of one of those with a few bucks added, like you suggested.
Good video!
A lot of the reviews state these often come in way lighter than their stated poundage. Did you measure yours or get the feel that it was at or close to 40#?
After watching your video, *I'm considering buying a bow that is easily manageable while sitting on my wheelchair. Any recommendations?* | 14 years ago, my wife and I enjoyed watching you on the Dual Survival series. | Archery was an elective class at a preparatory school I had attended during the mid 70's in Orlando FL., I liked it and was good at it.
Reminds me of the Easton "Rambow" of the 90's but a lot easier on the pocket.
Thanks
The limbs dictate the poundage of the bow so you should mark each limbs with the appropriate limb weight so they don’t get mixed up.
If you don’t take the limbs off it’s not an issue but if you were mixing bows I can see that
I shoot that same bow almost daily. Unfortunately it is mislabeled as a recurve. It is in fact a longbow. As is evidenced by the fact that the string doesn't touch the curve at the tip. Other than that, it is a great shooting bow. If I didn't have 4 bows I'd likely shoot it daily, but gotta know all of them. And it's even better being ambidextrous, I seem to have a few lefty friends!
For a better rest than provided I use the loops part of stick on 'velcro'
If you are gonna buy a backpack bow, and you like that one: spend a little more and buy a Black Hunter take down. You will not regret it.
This looks to be a great find!
Seen some of your videos, on facebook !! brother Dave Canterbury they’re really awesome!! Nicely done!! Thank you so much brother!!! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👊🏿
Curious now since I’m just somewhat getting into Archery. If you had to make improvements on this particular bow, what would you do and what products would you use?
I don't care how often you upload videos. It is better to make a video when you see the need for it, rather than trying to come up with something just because you need to upload a video this week, or every day.
Nice! It's worth a video showing the improvements!
Great review and find Dave. Thanks.
In my opinion, when people aren't concerned with views then they tend to put our more quality videos. Such yourself, Dan, and Matt From Blackhat.
Just saw a video from ranger field craft and survival where he mentioned you and also showed the bow. God bless. 🙏🏻
Best channel of its type. Always has been!
Love it
noob question. Are we allowed to have that gear(bow/xbow) on us all times ? Law wies ? not for hunting but survival gear !
Heck yeah. Great video coach
Dang, i think I like that better than my SAS, would prefer a 50 or 60 of course, but still, that is a darn simple and fine bow. Would not feel bad at all having a backup like that, and for emergencies, sure a lot easier to grab and go than all the compoud gear.
The ones on Amazon that are left are at $50 now, but I just bought the same thing on eBay for $38
The Alibow takedown English longbow can be got at a $50 price and is super durable--and no screws or tools to lose.
i would like to see your future mods on your own bow. i wonder if this would be a cheap way to bowfish? add a reel and your done!
