Tbow H8 25' Target Recurve Bow review

We look at the Tbow H8 recurve riser. We fit the Junxing Formula Carbon limbs and test the bow. We discuss how this bow stacks up compared to other recurve risers.

[bobmcglothlin]

[carmelkelleher]

With these videos, you are spoiling us Steven, Very funny, keep up the fantastic work. thank you

Jake Kaminski have put up a video showing the limb bolts coming off

My first serious riser is a used KAP (Win&Win) Winstorm 2 riser.

My point: I would NEVER be serious in archery if I can NOT afford the gear. Steve isn’t wrong, people need entry gear

[dannyhembree]

I have the H7 and H9 risers and I'm impressed with the quality and machine work of both risers. The limb bolt threaded bores are machined great and the threads are smooth.

Thanks for your common sense approach to are needed.

I never rely upon opinion of just one person. If I'm looking for anything and I need opinion of profesionals, usually i'm looking serveral and make my own mind.

A work friend pointed me to a regional event in Pakistan on Youtube. Luckily, English commentary. The biggest entrace, by for, was for the "people's boW". It's a local wooden one-piece from several layers of wood. It seemed to be part glued and part held together with thick string. . The competitors were probably better than average - but were having fun.

love your work steven. i learn a lot of things and tips regarding archery equipment. love the helmet lol.

Tbow H8 25" Target Recurve, what has been done about the limb bolt holes being oval shape on the riser.? jakes video on youtube shows this.?

[maxschell]

Great video. Agree 100% on the entry level bow verses the top of the line bow. The occasional entry level, novice archer, should buy equipment that they can afford comfortably. I have met affluent people buy the best i.e. most expensive bow on the market but don't shoot very well. No, buying the best bow on the market does not guarantee great scores.
Also I would strongly recommend customers buy bows, or any equipment, from a quality, reliable, knowledgeable dealer like yourself. I have seen people buy a bow from unreliable sources. If there is a problem with the bow e.g. limb bolts riser, limbs etc., that they bought from the unreliable source, then they may have problems getting a replacement, advice etc.

I am torn about that riser.
While having affordable options is a nice thing, promoting a company that makes their profit of another companies IP is not right.
It is quite obvious they wanted to copy Hoyt as much as possible, from the riser to the packaging.

I do not think any dealer who stacks Hoyt would risk annoying them by adding that copy to their inventory.
Especially US dealers.

On the other hand less scrupulous dealers might try to rip off customer by selling that riser as a Hoyt riser. Getting a hold of a Hoyt decal and bag might not be a real problem to fake someone who does not know that these copies exist.

Not sure if Hoyt has an patents or design copyrights on that riser, but if thats the case, they can easily make their claim and US and EU customs would confiscate all copied risers they catch at the borders.

I would be now very careful on internet sales especially of used Hoyt risers, as they might be such a copy.

And about affordable, it is not so that there were not already enough options for the aspiring archer on a low budget.
You named them all if your video.

[matthewbarton]

No amount of money will make you a better archer. Bows like this have their place in any hand.

Outstanding group Steven.




...dangerously good ;)

[lordcarnorjax]

Jake's riser as shipped to him was dangerous. That was his whole point. He just uploaded a YouTube Short video of it strung in his draw machine and guess what, it blew up at around 18" draw. TBow won't be stocked in American dealers because it's using "stolen" American IP, Hoyt has much better recourse to go after suppliers and stockists in their own country rather than web stores out of China. LEGO spent years going after a knock off company through the Chinese courts.

[stickboy]

Agree. In the USA the market is compound hunting bows. I have never seen target bows or Olympic recurves in a shop so i will be forced to build mine online and hope it works...which is why i have not spent the money yet...I hate guessing.

[marylandflyer]

It’s a great looking riser in white! Don’t think I’d move from ILF limbs, but thanks for the video 👍

[wazzataylor]

I have been watching your videos to get some ideas. As I am looking at getting into bow hunting. Is the archery industry the same as some other industries. Where they sometimes sell the patents of old products. And then the new buyer starts making them again?
