OMG I am watching this for the first time since I posted it in OCT 2019. Not great :) I am going to do an update soon with how i feel about this bow more than half a year later. Thanks for watching!
Did you ever wind up doing that long-term review? I'm searching your videos a year later and can't find it.
I like the Black Hunters I own... I shoot at forty five pounds on these and use the recurve version and the long bow version. Today I was practicing flu flu archery and a great bow for that type of archery if any are into it. Wish you the best and t hanks for your reviews and channel. Nice tips you post.
I feel the same way with the grip!! I really liked the black hunter longbow but the bottom limb broke at the wedge and bamboo core. Great shooting bow also accurate. Now i shoot the f261 ilf with longbow limbs by the same company!!!
That looks like a nice bow! Can you drop a link to where you bought it? You might see it here as a review in the future :)
@@ArcheryGeek
yes its the f261 17 inch riser and the bigrock f162 clearglass gordon fiberglass reflex deflex bamboo limbs. Great bow!! I used plumbers rubber gaskets sanded down under tiller bolts. Rubber o ring on detent and female velcro on limb butt for under tiller bolt and contact of limb and dovtail bracket. Sooo quiet!!! Junxing bows on alibaba or even amazon. has the riser
Brad Lauber and you shoot off the shelf or elevated rest is required?
@@ArcheryGeek you can shoot either or!!! I shoot off the shelf with the supplied alumminum shelf that bolts on the riser. I ground the side and and filed the inside on the rest for better fletch Clearance!! It has only one burger button hole though. Riser is 7075 machined alumminum!!
Let me know how your limbs hold up over time as i had two sets of limbs delaminate on the black hunter longbow. A sales rep mentioned junxing was having issues with the limbs delaminating at the wedges so i am waiting for them to solve the problem. I will buy another one in the future as i loved that black hunter!!!
SO, I have this bow as well, I have a about a 30.5 inch draw. Definitely stacks at my draw length (probably starting at 28-29 inches), but it is a great starter for sure. I love this thing, it is definitely my second favorite bow. It comes in second to the Fleetwood TimberRidge Longbow/Recurve bow; I have both limbs, 50lb in longbow, 45 in recurve. The TimberRidge is very similar to the black hunter, but has a "custom wood" look to it, and the handle in the riser is just a tad larger. Still very comfortable, and my favorite bow to shoot to date. I am able to shoot the same arrows through both bows, 50lb longbow limbs and 45lb recurve limbs seem to need the same dynamic spine for my set up, 30.5" draw, split finger shooting, off the shelf, 300 spine 33" arrows 175 grain tips. Always great content from this channel.
Thanks for sharing I’m going to check out the Timber Ridge
@@ArcheryGeek Absolutely no problem. I forgot to mention too that the limbs for the TimberRidge and the limbs for most Black Hunter models are interchangeable, so if you want the black riser and the wood limbs, or vice versa, you can do that. I am aware at some point one of the Black Hunter manufacturers changed the bolt hole sizes, so some limbs still out there may not work. That said, you can find the same issue with the BH risers, if you have a newer model, those older limbs wont work.
I just recieved my #45 longbow. No logo on mine! It shoots very well and feels very smooth if I compare to my Martin Jaguar recurve #45. No shock! It is true that arrows are going exactly where you look! I like the esthetics too.
That’s awesome
Did you buy directly from manufacturer (from Junxing). May be that's why there is no logo.
I have one on order, hope it gets through with all this lock down in place.
Peter Davies it will I got some arrows about 2 weeks ago
i have been thinking buy one but where i can buy the black hunter bow? some places are empty stock
Would this bow be a good hunting bow in 55# for black bear hunting in your opinion
Bear Tracker in my opinion this would work really well. As you know it’s all about shot placement
Hi I had both of them Bodnik longbow and Black hunter longbow,so called "Chinese junk" and guess what ? I sold the German Bodnik and still have my Chinese junk. So sweet to shoot and very accurate bow.
My family has 3 good back up bow. To your custom when it's rough.
I didnt make this comment sorry.
What height are you putting your knocking point from the square angle from the grip ? I’m new to archery and thinking about buying this one, thank you !
I shoot 3 under and my nock is 1/4 inch high. That’s to start. If the arrows fly ok I don’t mess with it
Can you use fast flight string?
thanks
yes you can! I haven’t tried it yet though :)
Great review. I ordered the recurve bow threw Amazon in 35#.
Awesome video and nice shoting bow.
I got ptsd and anxiety so for me archery is meditation and relaxation. Im in a bow club and loaning gear now. But am out of work so cant afford my own gear i dream of having a good recurve bow and target so i can shoot everyday would help me a lot both with the ptsd/anxiety and getting in better shape.
Hello! Please, tell what arrow shaft length do you use with #40 Black Bear longbow? I also want to buy Gold Tip Traditional arrows for the same bow, but don't know, what shaft length to order.
Hey thanks for watching! I used LinkBoy Archery 600 spine. I would think the GTs would 500 spine with 100gr - 150 gr. I wouldn't go by their chart ... 500s should work perfect.
Hello! What arrows for this bow can you recommend on Ebay or Aliexpress?
And also for the same 60" bow, but 30lb.?
Many thanks!
Please search Linkboy archery and buy any of their arrows with 600 spine on AliExpresss I highly recommend them and you can look at my videos for “best traditional arrows” review if you want to see them in action.
Hi, im looking to get into arhery and buy this as my first bow. But i've got one concern. On amazon, its stated that max draw lenght is 30", but my draw is about 24.8", is that gonna affect anything, concerning that most people i saw on CZcams said their draw was 26"-28" ?
24.8? thats what you measured? how? message me back and I can help.
@@ArcheryGeek well, thats what i measured with tape and divided by 2.5...i ordered the bow, so ill have a better measurement when it comes in...im 175cm in height(i think thats 5"10')
Just had the bottom limb blow up !!!!!! How do I get a new lim
You have to order from Mandarin Duck 🦆 🙁
Good video ! Also watched you slick stick ( 60 inch ) video. I have a BH in #30 recurve and BH in #35 longbow versions. I prefer the feel of the longbow although I shoot the recurve in winter because its so cold ( I’m a Canadian also) . I agreed that what makes it for the BH is the riser and in particular the grip . I also hold my bow , “ stop sign “ as you say, and it is perfect. I looking at getting #40 limbs in longbow but also looking at the slick stick 60 inch. Any thoughts on your side ? Thanks . Keep up your videos!
Pierre thanks for watching! I really like the BH and would say it is much smother than my slickstick so for my money I would buy the limbs for the BH.
You didn't talk much about the Body ,Weight ,Draw ,Length The Feel .....where was it made who sells it
You are right! I need to get better at this :) let me see if I can answer some of your questions though: Body - pretty sexy looking bow except for the color. I didn't like the green so I might redo that. Weight - for a bow like this it is of average weight, this is not a good thing. I prefer a heavy bow, they tend to be more accurate. Draw - I have changed my opinion on this and will be doing and UPDATED video of the Black Hunter soon. its made in China like all black hunters are. Sorry this reply is so late. I was considering doing a video to answer all of that but haven't yet. Thanks!
@@ArcheryGeek I'll be watching thanks .😀
thanks for the video. i just purchased one. 35#
Awesome!!
good afternoon
my draw length is 30".
this bow is set at 28". is that accurate?. Thanks
I think that it is by default 28 ", but you can pull it up to 30" at most.
I have and shoot his bow, by draw length is 30.5 inches. It stacks at 28-29 inches, but it is shootable. You might have a little more noise, but you can dampen that out with some limb dampeners. I'd recommend you get the recurve version if you are just starting out, since it draws a bit smoother for the longer draw lengths and does not stack as soon as the longbow version. If you don't care about the stack, then its your choice. I love the aesthetic of the longbow, and always seem to fall back to it.
Length?
58" just a little guy. I will be doing an updated video on this bow shortly.
@@ArcheryGeek I thought it was 60".
What is your draw length? It looks like 25-26”???
It is 29ish
How do you install the string silencer. Im having difficulty finding online
You need to tie it together first then slide it through the strings before you restring the bow
@@ArcheryGeek perfect! Thank you! Do you recommend having the string off even the bow is in storage
I am planning on getting a bow i live in canada and saw a bear archery rth rtx at canadian tire can you let me know is it a good one Thanks 😊
Hey thanks for the comment and subbing ! Please look at Aliexpress for a good recurve or longbow - they ship to Canada for free sometimes. I love Canadian Tire but you might as well get your bow from the source. Let me know if you need help! Thanks
Archery Geek thnq i will check for sure as it my first bow what size should i start with
Avninder SANDHU I really think a black hunter with longbow limbs is your best bet. Don’t spend more than 120$ usd. For your first bow I would not go bigger than 35 lbs. shipping take a while so be patient :)
Avninder SANDHU sorry this is my other channel name but it’s me responding below 😃
Closet Geek thnx i will look into it i probably will order it today
What is your brace height?
7.5 inches I believe
@@ArcheryGeek thank u
brace height???
Sitting at about 7 3/4
Been thinking 🤔 on this one ☝️
Mark Chambers it’s a must buy. Really nice bow.
Archery Geek fits my budget call me 🤙 later . Let’s chat about this one . Ty , Mark
Looks like cat fur silencers
Ha
Wet a scotch bright pad. Little soap that logo comes right off without damaging the finish.
X Factor Outdoors thanks I’ll give that a try!
Looks like a Bob Lee Bows wannabe
It's awfully shiny for a hunting bow.
