Really nice relaxing review. Beautiful countryside and was cool to see your dog get out with you. If drinking tea and eating cake is part of the mix I think I’d fit right in over there!
Tea and cake are compulsory when shooting over here, or at least that’s what I tell myself, it never hurts to take five and admire the scenery, it’s good for the soul. Thanks for watching, and thanks for the encouraging words, it really is very much appreciated, all the best, Steve.
It certainly is, or at least in my humble opinion, sadly it’s gathering dust at the minute as a long term shoulder injury is making life difficult behind a bow. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, all the best, Steve
I’ve been thinking about 3D targets for a while, I just need to get around to it, but it will happen, as long as the estate manager is happy for me to put a few semi permanent targets in place. I’m blessed with some stunning scenery right outside my door, it’s an archers paradise. Thanks for the positive feedback, it really is very much appreciated, all the very best, Steve.
Greetings from the UK, and many thanks for your words of encouragement, and subbing, it really is very much appreciated, I hope future content won’t disappoint. All the very best to you and yours, Steve.
I got one of these today. Usually standard fiberglass and maple bows shoot around the same speed, but this bow shoots as fast as my bow with all carbon limbs. I don't know how they do it.
I have no idea how Bearpaw have pulled it off, but somehow this bow shoots faster than it has any right to when you consider the construction, it’s a mighty impressive bit of kit for the money. Enjoy your new bow, and thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, it’s very much appreciated. All the best, Steve.
As a someone who only knows bows and arrows from making them as a child, this was completely riveting. Surprising accuracy. Makes me wish I could straighten my left arm (motorbike accident).
I’m sorry to hear about your arm, It’s been many many years since I rode, but I don’t miss the vulnerability. It turns out that a simple bow and arrow is just as much fun when you’re older as it is when you’re young. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, regards, Steve.
@@chroniclesofahalfwit Hi Steve - my eldest daughter who lives in Portugal has recently been enthusing about archery. It's something that has long interested me, but being in Switzerland (and now Swiss too) I could finally get into sport firearm target shooting. But I can't do that in my garden! And it's noisy! 🙂 Hence the attraction of archery! I was fascinated by the idea of the silencers you fitted. Is that because you intend hunting? Or is the sound just annoying? I didn't quite understand the need (as a firearm guy!) All the best, Rob
@RobWhittlestone your daughter will love archery, it’s a great way of getting out amongst nature. The silencers are really just to keep the noise down to a whisper for me, I don’t like the twang of an unsilenced bow, especially on videos, there are huge benefits to a silenced bow for a hunter, but bow hunting in the UK is illegal, so I don’t need to worry about spooking game.
Excellent. I’ve read quite a lot of text about beaver fur balls, cats whiskers, velcro, limb savers etc and there seems no definitive solution. I just want a nice sounding bow, like the way you quietened the Creed bow. Does it make any difference for take down recurves or is it still the same?
@michaelbuckby9988 silencers are effective on all types of bow, there are lots to choose from, but they’re all about the same in terms of effectiveness, I’ll get a video out either Saturday or Sunday along with my scheduled video, I hope it will be of help.
Had to watch this again, i enjoyed it so much the first viewing. Your surroundings are breathtaking. You do have good form, as one subscriber noted. Me thinks your dogs enjoy these forays as much as you do! Is the Creed one of the bows made in the Cezch Republic? The stumps your hitting, sound like there hard as nails. A good many of the pine stumps over here in the States are the same, like hitting iron, others are rotted and papery. ScottintheUSA
Hi Scott, I’m glad you enjoyed it enough to watch twice, I really appreciate the vote of confidence. My form if any good is a lucky accident, it’s a result of TH-cam videos and instinct, but it seems to work for me, as for the dogs, they love it here, they have miles of woodland and mountains pretty much to themselves, and love every second of exploring them. I believe the Creed is Czech built. 90% of stumps in my local area are like cast iron, they often appear very rotten, but have a solid core, it pays to keep a good stock of arrow shafts. I haven’t been able to get out shooting for over a week because of bad weather, so couldn’t put a video together, although I filmed a how to video yesterday on arrow wraps, I’m just finalising the edit to upload this afternoon, but I’m itching to get back out with the bow. Thanks again for watching, it’s reassuring to know my videos are of some interest. Steve
@someonesomewhere5793 Steve, Thanks for responding. Having good archery form is never an accident. Both you and I were basically self taught. You gleaned instruction from other individuals and floolwed through, putting it into practice. I learned from extensive reading and had friends who shared experiences with me. In the end, I think it's the best way to learn a craft. Anxious to view your "arrow wrap" vid. I use them myself and swear by them, mostly because of, A. Superior glue adhesion, and B. High visibility. Concerning arrow shifting, I fletch all my arrows. Carbon, aluminum, and I also like making wood arrows. Good luck with your vids, I enjoy them, scenery, music, equipment selection, etc. ScottinUSA
@scottrobertson9452 I ended up deciding not to upload the arrow wrap video, there were things I wasn’t happy with when I watched it back, so I’m going to re record it tomorrow, sorry about the delay, I’ll try to make it worth watching.
So nice to see somebody from the West Highlands! I was night porter of the Great Western hotel since 2015 to 2019 than I went to the Premier in also in Oban as head housekeeper. I moved home until the covid lockdown to Hungary but Scotland have me forever as my other home. Alba Gu Bráth! Before going foreign countries I was a compound archer and when I came home I switched to historical archery. We use modern laminated bows for competition but Hungarian Turkish and other historical shape. I use thumb draw and Hungarian bows mostly. Both my 50# and 63# Hungarians are actually faster than a modern recurve bow. They are 220 Fps+ fast, Crazy isn't it? And they pack a punch! This year I became champion in 180 meters or 196 yards target shooting. 7th of September next competition is shoot above thge Tisa river and the target distance is 230 meters or 251.5 yards. Other nations don't really practice these long ranges but this is my life. Only Turkish folks are good enough to give us a fair competition in ultra long range target shooting. One thing that woudn't be posible to practice in Scotland. Now I am poor in comparison to my financials in Scotland but I am happy on the way that wouldn't be possible anywhere else. Greetings from Hungar! Side note. Don't worry about the string! We use thin strings like that to increase speed for long range target and flight archery. Modern string materials can take it well. That is a hardcore hunting bow mate! Other folks came to Hungary because bowhunting is legal here. I can recommend it to you as well if you are interested. I wish all the best for you mate!
Thank you for your kind words, I definitely feel privileged to be able to call the Highlands home, I’m not too far from Oban, just the other side of Fort William, it’s a very special place, though with the way things are in the UK just now politically, many are looking at leaving for good, and I’m one of them, so I’ll keep Hungary in mind as an option. The distances you shoot sound amazing, I thought a 60yd shot with a recurve was impressive, but 251.5 yards is a staggering distance, something I’d very much like to see, though it’s fair to say those ranges are well beyond my capabilities, especially now I’ve permanently damaged my shoulder. Thank you for watching, and taking the time to comment, all the very best from your second home here in Bonny Scotland, best wishes Steve.
That’s reassuring to know, I now have a new string from Reign bowstrings, but the whisper is still on the bow, so I think I’ll leave it on for now if it isn’t the issue I first thought it would be, thanks for that, and many thanks for watching, and the positive feedback, all the very best, Steve.
I have a Bearpaw Takedown Chapman Recuve. It shoots great. Looks great. I am shooting a Gold Tip Traditional arrow that weighs 451 grains and I have chronograph up to 216 FPS. I am shooting B55 Flemish Twist and D97 strings. The Creed recurve your shooting looks nice also. The bows are very high quality and shoot great. Mine is whisper quiet also.
Bearpaw certainly know how to put a quality bow together, I’m still on the original string and it performs flawlessly every time. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, it’s very much appreciated, all the best, Steve
I’m over the moon with it, although I’ve spent more time looking at it than shooting it courtesy of the weather lol, that said, the forecast for the next week is pretty good, so I plan to make the most of it. I’ve considered giving blunts a try, and probably will at some point, but for now I’m really happy with the judos, I haven’t lost a single arrow to vegetation whilst using them, and that’s pretty miraculous up here, I usually bid a last farewell to at least one per session with other points.
@@chroniclesofahalfwit Between work and weather time is limited in winter even down South. I hadn't properly considered the bracken I can definitely see the Judo's being superior. Something I saw from one of the US hunters you could try is wrapping a little hivis reflective tape around the nock end so they glow with a head torch.
@mrln247 I have some bearpaw night fire nocks that I bought for that very purpose, but as yet I’ve only used them in the garden, they definitely work though. Reflective tape would be good, although I’ve started cutting my own wraps, and the vinyl colours available are mind blowing, it would be difficult losing some of them even if I tried lol, I’ll have to experiment with different wraps and feathers to see which work best, but so far I’m liking hot pink, when used with judos I could see my arrows from space, they’re incredibly difficult to miss, if not a little camp lol.
@@chroniclesofahalfwit Cool. If the Pink works for you stick with it. Some of us colour blind persons do not see pink on green at all well, but there's usually something else that sticks out well. Atleast now it the time you might accidentally stumble over arrows previously hidden in undergrowth.
Funny you should say that, I’ve just been out with the dogs and found a couple that I lost a month or two ago, but they’re for the 40lb bow so not much use now.
Just quick question , I’m considering what poundage to buy with this bow. I have about 30” draw I was wondering what is your draw? I noticed you changed back to your lower poundage bow due to pain, do you advise 45lb or 50ib since the shoulder pain?l can’t make my mind up due to my draw length… ps love your videos 😊
There are a lot of variables involved, seasoned archers will be drawing heavier weights, where newer archers should be starting off with lower weights to build good form and technique before moving up in weight, it really depends where you are as an archer, if starting out 25lb would be a good weight, but if you’ve been shooting a while and already comfortable on a higher weight, you’ll have a good idea of whether you need to increase weight or not. I have a 27.5” draw (string to deepest point of the pistol grip on the back of the riser), and the draw weight of the bow is rated at 28”, so for me I’d deduct 1lb of draw weight from what the bow pulls @28”, you’d add or subtract 2lb for each inch under or over 28, in your case, shooting a 50lb bow with a 30” draw would have you pulling around 54lb. I usually shoot my 50lb bow, but if my shoulder injury is giving me trouble I’ll drop to 40lb for comfort, we can’t bow hunt in the UK, so I don’t need heavy weights, and I find 40lb to be comfortable until my shoulder settles down. I hope that that’s of some help, thanks for watching, all the best, Steve.
Many thanks Steve looks like a 45lb for me as I shoot 40 @29” is about 45lb on the fingers. Thanks for all the help. Love the sound of the arrow hitting the stumps. Keep the videos coming 🎉
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, it really is very much appreciated. I hadn’t considered differences in taxation, and just did a straight at the counter GBP with vat to USD conversion, I’ll have to remember that in future. Thanks again for watching, Steve.
It’s definitely a better way of life, but I do miss home, you can take the pudding out of Yorkshire but you can’t take the Yorkshire out of the pudding lol
I may have bumped Into you on site.l too am a joiner and did alot of work for Irwins on jobs in Sheffield .Worked on the refurb of the Bradford and Bingley in Sheffield centre also refurb of firebrigade offices also in the centre😊
@robertcrowther6134 it’s possible, it’s definitely a small world, although 99% of my work has been domestic, I’ve always worked solo so commercial contracts were to much to consider.
The limbs have maple cores with fiberglass laminates, and are reinforced with G-10 tips to accept today's modern high performance strings, including fast flights. I haven’t shot a Bear Grizzly, so I can’t compare the two, but for the humble price tag, the Creed is a quality bow that shoots extremely well. Hope that helps, regards, Steve.
To be honest I have no idea, there are some good archery groups on Facebook with very knowledgeable archers when it comes to things like aging bows, that would be where I’d head for such info, sorry I can’t be of more help. All the best, Steve
Great, thanks. I’ve only been shooting 5 months and live it, but the twang on release is frustrating, even though the bow was professionally set up by Merlins Archery.
I’ve kept the string on to see how it holds up and it’s doing absolutely fine, it also had very little stretch which surprised me, the only real let down is the serving, gaps keep opening up in it when I nock arrows, and have to be repeatedly pushed back together, but other than that’s it’s actually a decent string. Thanks for watching, all the best, Steve.
