I love recurve bows and traditional archery. Totally instinctive. I’ve give up on compounds. Even though I’ve stripped my old compound down to nothing but a rest and quiver. Shoot it with fingers also. No bells and whistles. It has brought back my whole reasoning and enjoyment of archery as I was taught as a kid by my late dad. He was a recurve man also. I love y’all’s enthusiasm as well. Keep up the good work.
Great video. Since bows are such a personal choice, I'm not going to comment on your choices although they seem to be excellent. What I would like to comment on though is the enthusiasm you have for traditional archery. I shoot at a shop dominated by compounders and try my best to get some of them to try a recurve or longbow and find out how much fun they are. Keep up the good work. You might just find yourself selling that compound.
Thanks man! I've shot compounds for 25+ years, love them. However, this recurve truly makes me feel like a little kid again! I have been working on form and consistency every day since getting the NYX. If/when I harvest a deer with it this fall, you will certainly hear me yelling with joy, even if you're across the country
Hey guys, I follow Jeff Phillips religiously and I’ve got my eye on that NYX myself, so it’s nice to get another perspective as a former public speaker if I could give you some constructive criticism word whiskers can sometimes be a little annoying to listen to I think if you could get rid of those your channel would grow faster Word whiskers ? And.Um, um,and um and um. Please don’t take this offensively. My intentions are good! Well, meaning I do believe it would help you putting out better videos again thank you for the review on these bows
got the mesa lonbow 45@ 28 60 inch ,its 155-60 fps bow , love it , just bought a 70's model bear kodiak magnum recurve , its 48@28 52 inches long i prefer it just do to its short length for hunting
@@YankeeRebelOutdoors same , they both shoot the easton carbon legacy 5 mm fred eichler and the 3 rivers 45-50 # port orford cedar i run 170 grain head the eichlers are 470 grain total arrow weight , the 3 rivers 540 grains , they shoot either like darts , prob hunt w the wood , seem a lil quiter
Came for the trad bow content. Subscribed and look forward to the the journey this season. What are the main differences between the 64 and 60 inch mesa longbows?
Thank you for subscribing! The 60" version has a greater amount of reflex in the limbs as well as a more high-wrist style grip, similar to what you find on most recurve bows. The 64" version has a more mellow grip that lets the wrist sit lower, kind of like the wrist positioning of a compound bow grip. Shooting wise you will notice a bit more hand shock and noise from the 60" than you will from the 64" version. Both are wonderful bows! - Zach
People need to realize that many of these so called American bows are made in China. Currently, there are 30+ different bows with American names, that can be bought under a different name, for $200-$400 dollars less ,and its exactly the same bow, with no change or only color or insignificant finish change. WAKE UP PEOPLE.

The masa sounds faster
Ya, it's certainly a bit faster. Both great bows!
$350.00 might be inexpensive for you but I know people who are in debt to up to their eyebrows and don't have $3.00 three weeks into each month.
