@@bartbug1 The biggest upgrades I did to the Adapter was replacing the limb dampers with Limbsaver Limb Quads which really made a huge difference in sound as well as a QQD ultra rest hdx and a pair of kat whiskers!
I put the cat whiskers on my compounds too!! I just picked up a Bear Whitetail Legend Pro for a steal!! New string and cables and specs are on the money!
I really like where the archery industry is going with these super good shooting Amazon trad bows and over the last handful of yrs the top quality budget compounds!!! Big name flagship bows now will run a person $2000-3500 setup. That is so ridiculous to me at least. Bless you if you have that kinda extra income but a bow like you have for $600-750 setup with arrows will kill you anything in NA that walks so you don’t need the top end if you don’t have the extra $$$.
i love shooting my traditional bow but hunt whitetail with a compound. i dont shoot a with a peep, just either a nose button or kisser and wanted to add a tip in case it can help somebody. i converted a 5 pin sight to a one pin sight by removing three pins. i left one additional pin to use as a ranging pin. if the belly to back is inside of the two pins the deer is either outside of my range for acceptable drop or too small for me to wanna shoot, if the whitetails body is outside of the distance of my two pins, i know its inside of my shooting range, then i just drop to my top pin and let it fly. im definitely better now than i was a few years ago at judging distance but the pins help me reinforce my choice quickly while calming the nerves to deliver a confident shot.
hey jeff,can you shoot a compound instinctive? no sights no release no peep....thanks for the videos...would love to learn more about compounds....john
Jeff, I just bought a bear adapt myself but I shoot instinctive both with compound and trad. It would be awesome to see you set that bow up shooting fingers and no sight and do a video. I'm having a very difficult time getting mine to shoot that way. I have tried different spine arrow and different rest but still struggling getting it to shoot bare shaft consistently. Any suggestions ? Thanks
Nice shooting! I checked out the broadhead you mentioned and watched the Lusk video on it. Very impressive! I love traditional archery and have about 15 trad bows and two compound bows. I had target panic bad a for a few years so I went to the compound because I couldn't short draw it! I still enjoy it and will probably hunt some with it even though I'm pretty committed to my longbow this coming season. You mentioned the 6.5 arrows but didn't mention spine unless I missed it. What spine works out of your bow. I saw your response of 65 # draw. What draw length? I have a 27" draw with trad. and a 28" draw with compound bows.
It’s hurts to constantly hear about the sanlida bows knowing they don’t come in left handed versions. Will they ever? And will the Hermit X10 limbs ever be in stock again?
@@rindholt yes sir and from what I understand they will have separate limbs available in both short, medium and longs but no immediate plans for left hand risers for the Hermit 10.
@@DixieBowhunter-m5g I would say a Magnus Stinger Buzzcut two blade 150 grain! They are awesome for light bows and crazy sharp with replaceable blades 👍🏻
A few years ago i bought a mission. Came with everything except the arrows. I still shoot fingers. Due to work and family obligations i couldn't in good faith Hunt with my recurves because i didn't have the time I used to to shoot. But that mission is a tack driver.
Hey jeff, im curious. What target is the large black block target with the white tail on it? It looks like a bonafied target, but I've seen you shooting broadheads at it.
Could you do one on the oneida phoenix please i just got one bought the boondox rest shooting off shelf just like recurve i shoot bare fingers no glove tab or nothing and my fingers dont hurt at all! Shooting pure instinctive split finger no sights.
Jeff have you tried shooting a compound instinctively ? I have seen folks shoot compounds instinctively with fingers. I cant say that I have seen anyone shoot a compound instinctively with a release though. That would be interesting!
I just bought a less than 2 year old mathews mission Hammr for like 250.00 CND in perfect condition i don't think the guy even shot it had a site on it but no rest and no sign of use so iam not complaining other than rtrying to get my wisker bicsut to work right for me so more setup testing this morning cross my fingers i have it set to 48lbs and running 400 spine 400 grain easton powerflights..
@@jamesunderdal8976 lol I did for a good while, I had an Oneida Phoenix and a couple of Matthew’s set up for it plus some old vintage bows but I honestly liked the trad bows better with no let off 👍🏻
Amazing shooting, Adapt is awesome bow for the price.
@@MicPrime yes they are!
Love my old Mathews MQ32. 25 yrs old but shoots phenomenally
I'm pretty sure you could pick up a sharp stick and hit what you're throwing at. You are the man.
i don't think i have seen him miss yet no matter what's in his hands
Got my son one of those bows. They are great.
Great video mate, could you tell me what upgrades you did to that bow? Cheers from Australia

Awesome stuff man!! I tend to get my compound out here lately just to get the feel for it again!!! Sure is addicting stacking arrows at 30 yards 😂

Thats a terrible way to break arrows if your shooting position has a wall in back or wood fence

What do you think the best broad head is for a light weight tradition setup is? I would say 33# to 38#

That's crazy I shoot that model except 125 grain. Just wondering why did you chose the buzz cut version?
@@DixieBowhunter-m5g more blood lol
One more question with out a Sharpening jig how do you sharpenen them.
@@DixieBowhunter-m5g i just get replaceable blades for mine but you can sharpen them pretty easily on sandpaper

Hi Jeff, what is the poundage of this bow?
Solo cam bows in my opinion are the best compound bows to have. No timing issues really and lower maintenance
@@chickimac1 exactly!
When I was bow shopping, I couldn’t find anything l liked better than theAdapt. I double dog dare ya, pull one back.

Mr. Jeff, have you ever William Tell'ed with a Trade or Compound

The dark side is not better, just faster (easy). Reminds me of automatic transmission. Just don't want one.
Thanks for your support. I don't mean to be rude but Mr Phillips likes compounds, fine. I'm longbow. My dance card is full. Pro Howard hill. Dang.
Wtf im not impressed please go to the light
Please don't go to the compound machine on us..
they are both joy
