Thanks for watching Survival On Purpose.
Remember:
Survival is Not an Accident!
Be Prepared
For small critters, I would recommend the classic Crossman 1377/22 pellet pistol. A very reliable and accurate pump pistol.
cool
That Pellet gun is too slow to be considered a firearm so I'm not sure if you'd be legally allowed to hunt with it considering many states have mininum velocity requirements. If you're going to shove something in your backpack for a survival situation a handgun or a takedown bow would be better.
Your string has large and small loops .Put the large loop on top limb and slide it down then small loop on low limb that way you just slide the string to the end of top limb for easy stringing and when you add your knock point it will be in same place every time .And use feathers on a bow that is not cut to center the plastic vane is kicking your arrow over at every shot. Cool bow tho Thanks for the vid
Thanks. Although I think the fletchings were jacked up because the odd colored vane was in line with the nock
Good video brother. May I suggest that first of all that you take your bow to a bow shop and let the pros set it up for you. The trick to accuracy is proper form when shooting and consistency. A knock set will put your arrow at the same height every time. Your anchor point must be the same place every time etc. The brace height must be set properly so that the arrows hit the target straight and not angled left or right and also neither up nor down. A professional will paper train it for you. Then when you unstring your bow be careful to put the string loops together and tied together so that they can't possibly untwist and change your brace height. Keep that measurement written down just in case. I don't mean to sound like a know it all. Please forgive me if I do. I am a former State Champion with a Primitive Longbow. God Bless
Thank you for the review Brian!!
I've been eyeing that one and the ATMOS.
You're review is very helpful!
Glad to help!
Brian, I used to string my bow like like you do however coma I got a bow stringer - what a difference ! !
yeah, but this is designed to be compact so I like to keep it simple
Get a nock on that string will help a lot. Those plastic arrow rests suck but they are probably the best choice for that bow.
Yep
I once shot a bow that when I released the string, the string caught on my forearm and about ripped it off. Talk about painful. It was like the string had filleted my forearm muscle off. Very memorable.
Talk about' muscle memory. 😢🤣
Yeah, I have to wear an arm guard.
me Me Learning to become a Christian with its inherent trials and tribulations builds character, but I know what you mean.
Brace hight, fix it to help, along with how you grip bow and your release,
Very nice vid friend. Don't sell yourself short.
I still have my old Bear 76'er 50# take down bow. It was a lot easier to pull back when I was younger...
Indeed
I like how you let the first arrow fly and your neighbor comes into frame. lol
Great review, I've been interested in these since Chris did his review a few years back. Just bought another bow so it might be a minute before I can make another bow purchase.
Thanks for watching!
I tried one of the original versions a few years ago. I absolutely despised that bow. I sent it back without doing a review. It would be an easier pill to swallow if it were under $100. But $220 for a piece of tubular aluminum, 2 brackets and solid fiberglass limbs is just too much. The ergonomics are horrendous and it's slow as molasses. There are some truly high quality bows on the market that can be had for less $. Do a search for the Black Hunter. It's sold under a variety of brands (made in China) but is a takedown bow that is very well made and executed for about $130. There are plenty of other options available if that one doesn't suit you.
Thanks for the information Mike.
Totally agree. Expensive junk. Way better out there that can be taken down and put into a similar pouch. Total garbage. I cant believe people buy this thing.
Saber Max I understand your points. That said, the bow I shot was a review sample. I had it for a few months and even took it to a large traditional archery shoot. I have do doubt the parts are of decent quality. My opinion stems from the execution.
I like the "no assembly required" aspect and what seems like pretty solid construction. Maybe if I was an accomplished archer I'd feel differently but it seems to get the job done for a wannabe like me. The only other takedown model I've tried is the Wrascal bow that was in a Battlbox.
The bows nowhere near cut to center has a d shape limb profile and uses solid glass limbs. All are ways to make an underperforming design. It's a tube of aluminum with solid glass limbs that have no taper. Good stuff.
Very useful video thank you will help me hit the ground running when my Recon arrives in a couple of weeks.
Thanks for your time to bring this information to us! I seen this bow before but at a price tag of 220 dollars it is out of my price range. Would like to have one though 😊. Maybe some day! Love the hat! Wishing you all the best to you and your family!
Thanks
Digging the stache!! Had to look twice thought it was some else . lol
Good video usually enjoy your episodes and when the wording is shorter excellent . All the best !
Glad you enjoyed it
Another good way to set your knock if lost is to tie in an over sized d-loop piece of cord wrapped around the string and then glued into place with a small drop of super glue and if you use a bright color ( orange,white,yellow,ect ) you can see the knock point in low light it helps I have the tactile version of this bow in 45lbs and it works greate.
Thanks
You have so many cool skills! You're the man Bryan! You give me confidence that I can do some of this stuff too. Love your videos.
Excellent video. mate. I'm not using the Recon, as the Recon will not fit into my medium ALICE-pack. The Recon is 2 inch longer than the regular SAS bow. As I am living in Germany, bow-hunting is a felony here. Of course I carry hunting and Bodkin arrowheads, as they are still legal to buy here, anyway they are illegal to use.
Bowhunting a felony? wow.
@@SurvivalOnPurpose Even if you have a hunting-license here in Germany. Bow and crossbow hunting is totally illegal and a felony here in Germany. Politics nowadays even speak about crossbows being regulated as weapons like guns. And it is very hard to get a license to own a gun here in Germany. Which I believe is unfair on one side, on the other side here in Germany is so many people on such confined space. There's so much aggression here, even if Germany pretends to be a social-state. It is not. It is a pseudo-social state.
You've had Amok-runs at schools in the US, we in Germany also had AMOK-runs in schools. Have You ever heard of any AMOK in schools in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, Poland, Switzerland, Denmark, Austria etc. --- All countries where it is much easier to buy a gun. I've never heard of such AMOK in before mentioned countries ... here in Germany it happens, as kids know where the key to Dad's gun-safe is. (Here in Germany it is mandatory to lock away Your guns if You are a hunter or sports-shooter).
Germany is one of the countries with the most restrictive laws when it comes to owning a firearm, besides GB and Japan. Besides we've had things like Columbine even here. As I mentioned ... an industrial country, unfair and sick to the core ....
We have a plague here in Germany and that's wild boar. Hunters (people with a hunting-license) recently got the right to use silencers on their guns due to the boar plague. Wanna know what kind of guns people with a hunting-license may own: 3 rounds in the magazine when it comes to rifles and shotguns. That's it .. total castration by the law. As a hunter here in Germany You are allowed to carry a gun that has a magazine-capacity of 3 rounds and that's it. Even if we are allowed to use silencers on our guns, how shall we get into controlling the wild-boar plague? Tell me!!?
To get the wild-boar plague under control we'd need fully automatic weapons, at best belt-fed machine-guns.
@@SurvivalOnPurpose welcome to europe, place were tyranny was born and where it continues to thrive. I got fined 800 euros for carrying an "assault weapon" in my car, A brass knuckleduster 🤣 they sent me a fine home, i sent them a mail an told them to stick it up their "Aschloch" and never set foot in germany again.
A very interesting delivery. Not too fussed about the grip area but it is for emergency use mainly I guess. Good video. Thanks.
If you are a beginner at archery get the the Boy Scouts of America archery badge book ! It is a good book to start with !!
I was an archer long before I was the archery counselor for my area ! The boy scout archery book is very good info and some history !
As per the norm you nailed this one. Keep it up Sir!
The bow on the battle box 49 was said to have price around 75 dollars..
I like that this one is manufactured in the USA
A really good review, i learned so much thank you
Very good video! Thanks
Thank you too!
I have a different survival bow. Great idea.
I agree
40 pounds is a good poundage ! If you want it to be heavyer twist the string !
My only quarrel with this bow is that it really isn't anything new. Takedown Bows where you can take the limbs off the Riser have been around forever. Sure this is a more compact version, but it eliminates the option of having a more sophisticated arrow rest or sight. Plus I don't see it coming in draw weights heavier than 45lbs so I wouldn't use it for anything more than small game (unless it's a survival situation). I see this as more of a backpacking bow instead, this can fit perfectly into a rucksack.
It is available in 55 lb draw weight. And 45 is legal in almost every state for any game
Seems really well made but I think I will stick with a sling bow, we don't have much in the UK that needs a large bow
cool
I haven’t shot a bow since I was in High School in the 70’s - 80’s. We learned Archery in Phys Ed. My first time using the bow after instructions I put 3 in the Bulls Eye. A few of my classmates called me Robin Hood 😂😂 It was beginners luck. I liked Archery but I was into cars and well girls got my attention. 😂😂
It is fun
Thats a neat bow package. I will be watching for the video you do for their original survival bow also. You and the bow did a pretty good job. Thanks for another awesome video bud. God Bless
Thank you very much!
Survival On Purpose you are very welcome bud
I like the new hat !
New shave wasn’t sure it was you Boss
The hat is several years old. I alwys wear it camping. The mustache is becaus eone of my sons asked me to
Survival On Purpose always try to do those things for my kids as well. By the way I’m a 24 year volunteer for Boy Scouts
I have 2 sons that are Eagle and one Life right now at 16 project all that’s left. I retired from Scoutmaster this past September. I do our Council Klondike Derby and one Council Camporee.
Yeah start close !
I won the scout camp archery too! I shot a soda can @ 10 yrds with the badge instrutors bow !
A lot of complaining on this bow don’t buy one or is it you are going to have people always whining about something it is a survival tool well I just bought one and I have an actual bow made by Nakoda Craftsman and let me tell you I have one pushing at 70 pounds I can’t wait to get my bow.
Good content mate, thank you, i was also thinking that maybe that backpack case that holds the bow might have room enough for one of those 21" or 24" saws as well...
Love the video, but I think you have a left handed arrow rest on your bow. Could partly explain why your shooting was a little off. Cheers.
Hello Bryan, well I guess you can say "with that bow, you smoked it"!!!🤣 I love those, just wish I wasn't disabled so I could get and use one - how neat they are, for sure! Thanks for the vids, keep up the good work and keep these vids coming. As w/your reg. job you know that "it's good to be versatile and not to find yourself in a deep hole"!!🤣 Take care, "God Bless", sincerely Randy. 👍👍🙏😇👊
Thanks Randy
Yes please survival bow test
OK
The bow will be easier to string if you slip the top loop of the string on the upper limb before attempting to brace and string the bow. That way all you don't have to go over the upper tip but just slide the upper string loop up the limb and let it fall into the limb tip nock. Also, you can just tie on a string nock point, two points, one above and below the nock is better than one. ruclips.net/video/e789hUCBXI4/видео.html
Thanks
Interesting bowl. They have so many take down guns now that are much smaller. I’d rather have a gun for wilderness survival I guess if you want to stay silent that might be the way to go. Good informative video. Stay safe.
Ruger 10/22 takedown...
John Ganshow Yep, same here.
at the end of the day, so would I
Sir i mean no disrespect
** To make stringing easier
Place the string over the top end
Then place the loop over the bottom step over the riser and put bottom end wedged between ground and your boot.
At thet point lift and flex the bow while sliding the loop on the top end towards top notch and make sure the string is fully seated.
** YOU CAN BUY OR MAKE YOUR OWN STRINGER
AND
PURCHASE AN ARCHERS GLOVE IF YOU DONT LIKE TABS.
**( AS FOR ARROWS)
YOU COULD PURCHASE
A DOZEN ARROWS FOR ABOUT 60 BUCKS AND PUT IN A SEPARATE QUIVER..
** JUST A THOUGHT
NICE DEMONSTRATION SIR
My only problem with any bow any more is when I was younger I damaged my shoulder. So I can no longer pull one so I have to use a cross bow and to the best of my knowledge there is no break down cross bow. Only pistol style.
I have never seen a breakdown crossbow either
@me Me let me show you its features ha ha ha ha ha.
Regular guy shooting in the direction of his neighbors.
Sure is a Handy Piece Of Gear, You'll Be Splitting Apples Real Soon, Thanks, Bryan ! ATB T God Bless
I hope so!
It might be a good idea if you shot the thing before the near end of the video. That's what we want for see you know.
My less than expert shooting would not really be helpful to anyone trying to learn more about this bow. I try to show the details I would want to see if I was considering a purchase. That is why I started doing review videos in the first place.
Battle box 49 came with a 55 pound breakdown bow. Could you do a comparison of both bows. If I remember correctly you said you w Dr e going to do a vid on that survival bow
I might do that.
SinoArt sells takedown bows (the kind where you take the limbs off) that go up to 70lbs draw on Amazon.
I love my primitive gear unlimited take down bow
cool
Survival On Purpose I was going to purchase the SAS because one it is my initials LOL but to it was the first take down bow I saw but the primitive gear ultimate take down bow The Bow had A cut out area so when you place the arrow on the string the front of it would be straighter on If that makes any sense LOL if it doesn’t watch their video
Thanks for the video. BTW cool hat. What is it?
Tilley Hat
Looks like you've got a left-handed arrow rest on your bow...
bigger and crappier than my bear takedown
But this one is not a takedown. It folds.
@@SurvivalOnPurpose I am firmilliar with that one. if that is all yhou have you still need a bow. by Bear fits in a pkg. of about 18"x4" x6.5" and is a real hunting bow not an aluminum channel with glass filled limbs. the speed on that bow would be so low that one made on the spot of wood would be better. my Bear is clocked at 208 with hunting arrows 2117's with 125 gr. snuffers. it is only 65 lb draw. what does yours do? it is ok if you don't need or rely on or know how to use a bow, but for survival when the chips are down all you have is an expensive club.
Oliver's opinion is the correct opinion.
But is it lelegal in any state
you better check
3:40 review starts.
sigh
Is there a bit of garbage on the lens, making that mark in the lower left of the vid?...
But I enjoyed it none the less!.
rain
I taught robin hood how to split an arrow with an arrow 💪😂
sure you did
@@SurvivalOnPurpose that was after i carved the round table for king arther , i fancied a career change after that 😂
Marketers: "How many buzzwords can we put in a single product name?"
Is it left handed too ?
It can be
0:20 YES. YES A MILLION TIMES. So many "survival" shows are absolutely terrible when it comes to actually having sustainable food. Anyone who actually thinks you can survive without hunting and fishing is a fool. Just getting minimal protien from mice and bugs is not enough, you need FAT. Which you get from fish and large game (some small game but only a select few). Even more reputable shows like Survivorman fall victim to this, LeStroud does NOT know how to hunt.
Yep, you need fat
Its a noizy fokker folded down rattle rattle rattle
seems "gadgety", i pack my take down ,riser in the sleeping bag, limbs to the side
I like the self contained aspect of this one and it seems pretty
"un-fragile"
i like the bow but to me a little to much $$
Why use a few words when 10,000 will keep viewers watching longer. Well not this old bear! Adios Gabby
You look different. Have you lost weight?
not hardly
SAS lol.
Survival archery systems
Before you review a bow you need to learn more about setting a bow up. You are putting out some bad practice information and a mock set is important for accuracy.
I’m just a regular guy, as are most of my viewers.
Thought it was the real SAS as in elite regiment British army 🇬🇧 ( Click bait title handle )👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿😑😑😑😑
Click bait? That’s the name of the company.
You should stop talking and get working. that fence in the background will never stop the wave of zombie hoards on the way.
One day
Talk to mush
Bow is too long when folded.
I already designed Half it’s size during watching your video.
Thanks for sharing though.
A bow is a dangerous weapon. The way you use this weapon in your backyard, you are putting the lives of your neighbors at stake. We
can very well see it on your video just above your target on the right side. I usually like your videos, but this one doesn’t advocate good weapon handling practice.
It is much farther than it looks on camera.
