I've hunted all my life.. and no one has ever sat me down and laid it all out like this.. I've just had to learn... Thanks for putting in this effort.. this is priceless for lots of us!

Great audio right to the point. No goofy music. Your points come across real easy to understand. Really appreciate your video thank you

[chriscosby]

This is awesome been bowhunting and shooting for 30 years now this is probably the best beginner video I've seen. All about what is comfortable to you not about what's the most expensive you don't need a bow that shoots 500 fps to kill a deer.

Finally someone who explains the basic stuff in a clear way!

[jeyparks]

I just saw this and I’m so so grateful I came across it! Thank you so much for taking the time to not only explain everything but also have links available in your videos description. This has helped me feel way less overwhelmed about where to start. I hope to begin practicing and hunting with my bow soon :)

[benmarkus]

Looking to get my first bow, this video was so incredibly helpful! Thank you so much!

Good advice! I started my archery hunting in the late 60's while a teenager using a recurve. Huge difference when I finally succumbed to the compound bow craze.

[TheSubtleamuzement]

Wow, simple and straight forward. A great recipe for a great video. As an avid fisherman who is taking up archery with the goal of bowhunting, this was FANTASTIC! Besides all the great advice like draw length, the part about the non-negotiable purchases that come along with the bow was wonderful.

[Em_Dee_Aitch]

Excellent advice. When I was a kid, my dad just bought me a bow. And that was that. I never knew WHY he chose it, or what the accessories were for, or what modifications I could make. That was it. Period.

Been shooting for 6 years now, and love it. I shoot every day, at least 5 arrows unless I'm traveling. I made a practice rig from my old bow string that I take with me.

[OutdoorsAllie]

Thanks for watching my beautiful people!! I'm curious -- are you a newbie archer, seasoned pro, or somewhere in the middle?

[cooksonbk]

Thank you! I've been considering buying a bow for over a year now. I appreciate you putting this together

[fateslayer]

Me and my family are going to start getting into to archery I will have to definitely show them this video

[ryanrhoten]

I'll be buying my first bow within a month. This is great info! Thank you

[titansteelful]

You basically covered everything I did wrong when I went out and purchased a 70lb compound bow. I ended up dry firing it and cracking two limbs, and painting inside my arm purple :D

[yotatrd.]

The first fully informative video I have seen. Thank you!

[caseyberning]

Very informative! A definitely must watch for any new archers out there. I’ve been doing it for at least 10 years now and I’m still learning new things!

[MohamedFelfel]

Such a good video!. Thanks for talking loud and slow about the basic things we (newbs) should know. Awesome work.

[pinwheelin]

Appreciate what you do, need more young ladies in the outdoors period! Keep up the good work!

[beeamerica]
