Hey lily! I am a 14 year old boy who loves archery. You are my inspiration and the reason I started recurve bow shooting! I love your videos and keep up the great videos!❤
I’ve been teaching archery for 35 years, you have excellent technique and if you practice only with the 42lb bow you’re going to grow into it, I love your videos and enthusiasm, keep having fun!
She has a natural eye and feel for the bow. It's rare that bow users stick to traditional style bows, at least around here, most go for compound bows, I love that she loves her longbows.
If you don't mind me asking, what would be a good starting draw weight for a recurve bow for a 38 year old female getting into archery for the very first time, with practically unused/very weak upper back muscles? It'll be only target practice and learning proper technique and form, no competitions nor hunting. I tried my dad's 60 lb bow, but that was just not going to happen. He wants to get me a 50 pound one, but with how little I was able to pull the 60 lb, I don't think 50 will be much easier, and I bet I definitely won't be able to develop proper form on a bow that hard for me to pull. I don't want to start with something too hard for me to draw, and lose interest in the whole concept out of frustration.
@@arynnoctavia Your age makes no difference to your ability to pull back a bow. beginner adult archer, start off at 15-25-lbs depending on your physicality and how often you will shoot. Go to a range or a club and rent a bow, you might find the bow easy to draw back once, but how would you feel doing it dozens of times? Make sure not to overestimate yourself.
arynnoctavia depending on where you live there might be an archery shop near you where you can try out a few different bows to see which poundage you would
@@arynnoctaviaMen have a tendency to go too strong on the draw weight. 20 is a good starting point. Many areas require 40 for deer hunting. Since your not going to hunt 20 is good. Your accuracy will be better if your not fighting the draw weight. I wouldn't be surprised if you could beat your dad in accuracy once you learn. You with a 20 against him with a 60.
with regards to the righteous shot bow, it's rated 42lbs @ 27" factory standard bows are rated at 28" so that might be why you feel it heavier since at 28" it would be closer to 44 or 45 lbs. without a bow scale, you'll never be sure.
This is what I was thinking. A custom bow is measured at the ordered draw length, not the standard 28". I also think the Chinese manufacturers measure draw length from the back of the riser when they measure draw weight instead of the grip(Both my Mandarin Duck bows, and my Han "horse" bow measure 3lb under @28" and bang on @29").. If Lily only draws her 40(37?)lb Black Hunter to 27", she probably has 37/38(34/35?)lb OTF as her "max". actual 42lb OTF is +4/5(7/8?)lb and quite a step up. Possible with frequent practice, but I can see why she thinks it's so much heavier.
Thank you Lilly, your aunt's dog is very cute! Thank you for uploading though,I've been going through my GCSE mocks are the moment which are my practice exams. It has been really stressful and your videos are such a great stress reliever. Thank you Lilly,keep up the great work!
as an English man I am always happy to see a beautiful woman who is an ace with a bow ! seriously , I watch your vids as I too am an archer and a keen outdoorsman love your work best wishes from the UK
My 15 year old niece took up archery as a result of watching The Hunger Games, which is PG-13. I did archery at 10 in Boy Scouts. CZcams is ridiculous. Maybe do a video on Nerf bows and see what they do.
Guess what Huger Games is what they have planned for us. You idiot you paid to see what they have planned for us. I hope you liked the movie because you are going to live it. Idiot.
The best informational video in archery out there! Some of us don't have the luxury of being able to physically compare bows to decide on poundage and performance. The fact that you need to hold your breath on a 42lbs(?) bow for someone of your physique says a lot. Thank you Lilly!
I got my own bow when I was nine, 1956. I also went hunting with it. It wasn't long after that I started shouting my mothers 35lb recurve and my fathers 45lb recurve. These days I own a 35lb and 45lb recurve, take down with sights. And a compound set at about 40lbs.
I've always been intrigued about archery. I've played with them here and there so i went and ordered one online and now all i need is a proper target so i can go and have some fun. There is an archery club in the city i live in and im thinking about checking them out.
Thanks for the video. I took a break from archery after a shoulder injury. My shoulder has fully recovered and now I am ready to start back shooting. I miss target practice in the woods and the friendly competitions with my friends.
I started subscribing to your channel when you only had 2500 subscribers, and I've really enjoyed pretty well all of your videos since then - including the restricted ones. I've also just started to get back into archery (after about 35 years) having been first a pistol shooter (when we could have them in England) and then rifles for the last 20 years. I particularly found your video on setting up a recurve extremely valuable, and also bought one of the Black Hole targets for my back garden after seeing it on your video. Thank you for all of your productions, reviews, and sharing your experiences.
Growing up I shot some cheap fiberglass recurves and compounds came on the scene. I started with a cheap compound and cedar arrows I could get at Woolworths for $5 a piece. Then I graduated to a Bear white tail hunter that I owned for about 20 years. Easton aluminum arrows were what was the rage back then. I had the fishing rig wit a Zebco reel bolted on. I took many alligator gars with it. The last bow compound owned was a Browning about six years ago. Now I am full circle with a Samick recurve. I love it. I got some Carbon express arrows with a 250 spine and Zwickey eskilites. I think I could take just about any animal with it.
You go Lily. Grew up with a bow in my hand since I was 6 years old. I will be 57 this year. I've been making my own bows and quivers for a long time now. You keep slinging them arrows and more power to you.
Pretty nice assortment of bows. I like wooden bows the best - they are more evocative of the origins of archery, IMO. For hunting or competition, I'd be okay with glassed over carbon fiber compound bow. There's something to be said for the simplicity of a long bow. Its ages-old organic design served humanity well for thousands of years and still serves. Cheers.
2 things: 1) Set your camera on a tripod when you're talking about the bows so one can have a proper perspective of all of them, otherwise there is too much movement. 2) Teach your adorable puppy how to shoot a bow and give her some attention when you're shooting. She's so eager to go after the arrows...Very cute. oh, one more...3) Very nice shooting !! and I had to add this: 4) 40 pounds of draw weight is a heavy weight for many especially for women. Great shooting with that bow !!!
Hey Lilly you should watch The Push archery, it is a two hour long archery film on longbows and recurves. He goes over multiple different ways to aim a recurve other than instinctive, there is one type of aiming he goes over called the fixed crawl, and it increased my accuracy immensely, especially at longer distances.
Hey Lily, is drinking Kool-aid also restricted? Jim Jones killed 919 people with it...just wondering, where do they draw the line between reason and insanity?
Its the mods and the administrator of youtube that has a problem with life and apparently has not enough control over things in her life so she goes around pretending shes God of youtube and picks and chooses whats ok and not ok according to her. I call her CZcams Karen to the max a sad lonely woman
Lilly, There is an EZV compound bow sight that works much better than the pin sights, and, you can set it up with or without peep sight. I encourage to to check it out as it is very intuitive in use...
@Kenny H The fact that you people need so many guns means that you are indoctrinated. A useful tool turned in to a fashion accessory and family past time activity. Guns are such a important part of the culture that makes you wonder how this happened. But i know the answer, it's because of unregulated capitalism which permitted companies to oversaturate the market, then you let them peddle their wares in new different ways. Like those pink guns for little girls or scare tactics against women to make them buy guns too, well, because it's an untapped stream of income. I'm not saying that people shouldn't buy what they want but i'm definitely against manipulation, against aggressive marketing that influences people's emotions to sell products, for money. Nowadays companies focus and spend more on marketing than on product quality. You don't buy a useful thing that you need but you buy an idea, one that makes you feel good. So you see, we are cattle. But we were talking about censorship and that includes what happened to Snowden also. Whistleblowing shouldn't be illegal in any circumstance because it's pointing to the rotting parts that we should try to remove from our societies. We all need systems and laws that should permit people to point out the issues they are seeing without any fear of repercussion. Because we can't fix something we are not aware of. "If it is not right do not do it, if it is not true do not say it." The opposite applies also... People shouldn't be punished for saying the truth or doing the right thing no matter the reasoning. So from this perspective, where you are free to do anything unless it disturbs the ones in power, you are censored. And it's not some foreign power doing that, it's your own system.
@@somnorila9913 well when the time comes for civil war in America as long as they get attacked by paper targets or school kids they should go alright, otherwise it will be a BRAH fight
Thing is a bow isnt even a weapon legally. A weapon is a device that can store energy without the users manipulation and release it when a mechanism is triggered. A bow can store energy, but only with the users input so its not considered a weapon
CZcams AI, read my comment and send it to a staff: restricting an archery video is crazy. Stop doing that. Archery is a fun, children-friendly sport that can be enjoyed by everyone. If this kind of stupid role goes on, I am not going to pay for youtube red, period.
Very interesting. You're right. Archery is a great sport. There were classes for us kids at the local Rec Centre. Everyone wanted to learn how to be Robin Hood. And, it's nice to see your canine companion.
they still have archery classes in school here in the states. Archery installs discipline and patients and also gets the kids outside and away from the violent video games. Which is worse? but the pay full for video games.
Yeah, it's crazy. I was driving through a residential are in town a few years ago. A guy was shooting his bow and arrows into a bale of hay in his yard practicing for hunting season. A cop was there investigating.
Thank you Lilly, very interesting video. The fact that you do this not for the money but for the interest of your viewers, to explain your own passion is why we all keep on watching you. It certainly does seem hypocritical that You-Tube happily make money from advertising on your work, but won't share it.
Hi Lily! I love your videos and your English is pretty much perfect. The one thing I noticed today was that you describe your dog as 'the dog of my aunt'. I trained as an ESOL teacher, which is English for speakers of other languages. In English we say, 'My aunt's dog'. Similarly we would say, 'My friend's bow' or 'My sister's bag'. When you use 's it shows that the item belongs to that person. I hope you don't mind me pointing that out. xx
Unreal! I started to take my daughter to archery range when she was 8, and there are lot of young kids there learning archery. what is the problem?! If CZcams restricts archery, then they better do the same for all the first person shooter games as well. Where is the end?
Hi Lily. Looking forward to watching this vid. Good thing I'm 18+52 years old. I guess, like everything else, if you want to avoid bullshit, it's easy enough to do. Just stay away. CZcams can't function without viewers. Time to start looking for alternatives. OK, now that I've watched the vid, nice bows and nice shooting. I have a similar target, but the center on at least one side is completely shot out. I can't use the center for compound bows because the arrows sail right on through. I'm good enough now, though, that I can shoot at the smaller peripheral dots to extend the life the whole target. They run a bit over $100 in my area. Recently I had to lay off shooting for 6-8 weeks because of some chest surgery, but in a week or so I'll get back to it. I have taken a few shots, and instead of my typical 40 pounder, I find that I've had to go back to my 20 pound PSE Razorback, which is a wonderful economical and fun bow. I have a couple of the Nomad horse bows that are fun to shoot, and a fancier but still economical ILS Olympic style target bow that is accurate but very noisy. Actually, two of my favorite bows are "kids'" bows. I think one is made by Bear and the other maybe by Samick. They are very short, maybe only 40-42", extremely light and compact, but very high quality mini-versions of full-size adult bows. They are real wood and fiberglass recurve bows, and not the silly fake compound bows or the cheap completely fiberglass kids' bows you usually see. They are 30-35 pound pull and lethal enough. Happy shooting.
Bonjour Lilly. I really like your bows, especially those made of wood. I had bought, to start, a first wooden bow with 45 pounds but I quickly returned to 30 pounds. But I just bought a Salinda Black stone of 35 pounds and I think I could have 40 pounds soon. But I'm already looking at pretty wooden bows that look like your last one. Merci pour cette vidéo
besides shooting them it is always exciting tuning and accessorizing the bow to make it truly yours and capable for type of archery you have in mind for them.
I've been using a bow as long as I can remember. My son loves it. And I agree 💯 percent. Everyone should get out and learn. The world would be a better place. If we put more value on outdoors and the use of bows.
HELLO AGAIN LILLY ! IM ENJOYING YOUR VIDEOS ! IM USING MY 30lb BEAR RECURVE. I GOT IT FOR $8 AT A THRIFT STORE. IM LOVING IT, AND ARCHERY IN GENERAL !!! IVE GOT SO MUCH TO LEARN, ITS GONNA BE FUN. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS !!!
Hello Lilly, I was wondering if you have ever made a recurve bow from PVC pipe? It may sound a little wierd but it is not at all, PVC is an incredible material. I made one a few years ago with a draw weight of 80 lbs and the thing was a monster. I mention it because it is a simple project that would come in handy in a SHTF scenario. The bow limbs where formed in a cheap and dirty wooden mold. The PVC pipe cost me 3 Euro. I then made arrows from hollow fiber-glass tubing you can find in many hardware stores. These things were deadly and accurate. Think about it.
Lilly I really love your archery vids. I hope to be able to ask you questions as I progress in the sport. I used to shoot years ago, just getting back into it
The red one you started with and the blue one in the middle i like. They are all very nice of course but those two i like. I like the sleek black one too. 👍🏻🏴
Lilly you said it right there.. ""It's a great sport" .. It's a wonderful sport and that the skills of archery have been passed down for centuries .. Youth in archery , at the club here where i live , that is the greatest sport that continues to grow , nothing greater than coaching children in youth class in the wonderful sport of archery ..And going around the course with a group of little ones and watch their faces when they score on the targets .. nothing like it .A sport to be handed down and it just keeps growing and growing .. Well done Lilly ..
Love your videos! Very instructive and easy to understand .I have watched many videos trying to get back into instinctive shooting. Your information helped me the most. My shot groups have improved. You have real teaching talent. Thank You.
without any prior experience, i tried to pull a 90 lb bow and immediately pulled a muscle in my shoulder which bothered me for months. love your channel.
I have a Samick Sage which is very nice. The handle is nicely rounded. Some other bows I looked at had a ridge in the wrong place. I strongly recommend using a mechanical release.
@@chriss.3476 so far it is holding up great, however I have not gotten to use it much. So I can't really give a review on it. but I absolutely love it. feels good to use and after putting some silencers on the limbs and string it is a bit quieter.
Nice bow collection Lilly! Archery is a wonderful ancient sport enjoyed by many. I have had many bow's, recurve and longbows. Love the romance of the woods used in them and many are works of art. Modern tools and wood choices of today allow for some beautifully designed traditional bow's but also very pricey. Thanks for posting.
I agree that archery should not be limited, but there is a trend to protect our children from what is not good for them. Just think, when my father was a boy everyone was taught to shoot at about 12 years old, and no mass shootings. Now we protect the children from any thought of failure and there are mass shootings. Maybe we should listen to history. So many skills of our ancestors are being lost, skills that we need to survive. Those of us that can teach should teach all that we can. Thank you for your videos.
Hello momma its been nothing but great fun being a sub to your world and you being so beautiful even in the nature...Mother nature u are and Happy Thanksgiving keep doing what u do from the beach to the wilderness and those travel vlogs
Very good, I like to say my daughter took archery lessons among other sports but they enjoyed this at 8 years old and my son at 11. I think is a fine sport and for hunters alike.
Grüß dich Lilly. Mittlerweile kenn ich deinen Kanal schon einige Zeit und finde deine Beiträge sehr interessant und auch unterhaltsam. Ich hab jetzt kein Video gefunden in dem du ein Blasrohr nutzt. Ich kann dir nur empfehlen das Cold Steel Blasrohr auszuprobieren, es macht unheimlich Spaß und es ist überraschend effizient. LG Hans
When recomending the poundage of the first bow for beginners I use to say to them - archery is not wrestling when it is important to find out which one is stronger and who is going to win. You shouldn't be owerbowed. I really was surprised to see Falco bow at your selection! These were the first bows we started to sell at our shop: Legend, Spirit, Trophy, Robin and of course Twin.
Lol ....Woody ..breaking the rules of the archery range 😆....my compound stayed on 65lbs and it destroyed objects....u would love a compound if u like accuracy...u should get lighted knocks for nighttime ...just for fun ...thanks for sharing your bows. ..all of them are ur favorite 😆
My bow is just for beginners at 35 pounds. I'm looking at another recurve at 45 pounds. I wish my town had a archers club but I am learning by watching videos and initial training by a local archer.
Nice bows Lilly .....I have a collection of my own too and they are all vintage recurves from the 1950's to the 1970's ....and are daily shooters ......Bear , Dan Pearson , Indian , etc. love all the wood grain they are a true work of art ....

I took many alligator gars with it. The last bow compound owned was a Browning about six years ago. Now I am full circle with a Samick recurve. I love it. I got some Carbon express arrows with a 250 spine and Zwickey eskilites. I think I could take just about any animal with it.
Really nice collection. I wish youtube's CEO wasn't so inept. Keep doing what you love Lilly.
You go Lily. Grew up with a bow in my hand since I was 6 years old. I will be 57 this year. I've been making my own bows and quivers for a long time now. You keep slinging them arrows and more power to you.
Pretty nice assortment of bows. I like wooden bows the best - they are more evocative of the origins of archery, IMO. For hunting or competition, I'd be okay with glassed over carbon fiber compound bow. There's something to be said for the simplicity of a long bow. Its ages-old organic design served humanity well for thousands of years and still serves. Cheers.
2 things: 1) Set your camera on a tripod when you're talking about the bows so one can have a proper perspective of all of them, otherwise there is too much movement.
2) Teach your adorable puppy how to shoot a bow and give her some attention when you're shooting. She's so eager to go after the arrows...Very cute.
oh, one more...3) Very nice shooting !! and I had to add this: 4) 40 pounds of draw weight is a heavy weight for many especially for women. Great shooting with that bow !!!
Hey Lilly you should watch The Push archery, it is a two hour long archery film on longbows and recurves. He goes over multiple different ways to aim a recurve other than instinctive, there is one type of aiming he goes over called the fixed crawl, and it increased my accuracy immensely, especially at longer distances.
I just bought that black hole target and I have to say it's hard to beat for the price. It's a phenomenal target cube.
Hey Lily, is drinking Kool-aid also restricted? Jim Jones killed 919 people with it...just wondering, where do they draw the line between reason and insanity?
Hell, here in the states kool aid drinkers are obstructing traffic.
When are they gonna ban school buses? all those Canadian hockey player kids died in one last year.
take a full step into insanity then a half step back
Its the mods and the administrator of youtube that has a problem with life and apparently has not enough control over things in her life so she goes around pretending shes God of youtube and picks and chooses whats ok and not ok according to her. I call her CZcams Karen to the max a sad lonely woman
Lilly,
There is an EZV compound bow sight that works much better than the pin sights, and, you can set it up with or without peep sight. I encourage to to check it out as it is very intuitive in use...
I don't like censorship, it is unAmerican!😎
If that would be true Snowden wouldn't be in Russia right now...
@Kenny H The fact that you people need so many guns means that you are indoctrinated. A useful tool turned in to a fashion accessory and family past time activity. Guns are such a important part of the culture that makes you wonder how this happened. But i know the answer, it's because of unregulated capitalism which permitted companies to oversaturate the market, then you let them peddle their wares in new different ways. Like those pink guns for little girls or scare tactics against women to make them buy guns too, well, because it's an untapped stream of income. I'm not saying that people shouldn't buy what they want but i'm definitely against manipulation, against aggressive marketing that influences people's emotions to sell products, for money. Nowadays companies focus and spend more on marketing than on product quality. You don't buy a useful thing that you need but you buy an idea, one that makes you feel good. So you see, we are cattle.
But we were talking about censorship and that includes what happened to Snowden also. Whistleblowing shouldn't be illegal in any circumstance because it's pointing to the rotting parts that we should try to remove from our societies.
We all need systems and laws that should permit people to point out the issues they are seeing without any fear of repercussion. Because we can't fix something we are not aware of. "If it is not right do not do it, if it is not true do not say it." The opposite applies also... People shouldn't be punished for saying the truth or doing the right thing no matter the reasoning. So from this perspective, where you are free to do anything unless it disturbs the ones in power, you are censored. And it's not some foreign power doing that, it's your own system.
@@somnorila9913 well when the time comes for civil war in America as long as they get attacked by paper targets or school kids they should go alright, otherwise it will be a BRAH fight
Its good to have a dog with you in the wilderness
I guess a weapon is a weapon to CZcams, what an ignorant policy
@@patriott3087 star of david can be thrown too
CZcams monetization has always been a total dumpster fire. Archery is just another example of the madness.
But the problem is that anything can be a weapon. I could use my hands as a weapon, but they don’t restrict hands, do they?
Thing is a bow isnt even a weapon legally. A weapon is a device that can store energy without the users manipulation and release it when a mechanism is triggered. A bow can store energy, but only with the users input so its not considered a weapon
@@tomwallen7271 the example of madness is you
The last custom bow is really beautiful, like piece of art. Although the pricing that bow is awesome piece.
CZcams AI, read my comment and send it to a staff: restricting an archery video is crazy. Stop doing that. Archery is a fun, children-friendly sport that can be enjoyed by everyone. If this kind of stupid role goes on, I am not going to pay for youtube red, period.
Very interesting. You're right. Archery is a great sport. There were classes for us kids at the local Rec Centre. Everyone wanted to learn how to be Robin Hood. And, it's nice to see your canine companion.
Hell...we had archery classes/lessons when I was in middle school!
they still have archery classes in school here in the states. Archery installs discipline and patients and also gets the kids outside and away from the violent video games. Which is worse? but the pay full for video games.
Yeah, it's crazy. I was driving through a residential are in town a few years ago. A guy was shooting his bow and arrows into a bale of hay in his yard practicing for hunting season. A cop was there investigating.
Thank you Lilly, very interesting video. The fact that you do this not for the money but for the interest of your viewers, to explain your own passion is why we all keep on watching you. It certainly does seem hypocritical that You-Tube happily make money from advertising on your work, but won't share it.
Pretty sweet collection!
I agree with you our tree is a familysport that all ages can enjoy not only that but it keeps a lot of kids off of the streets 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Archery restricted??? I can’t even believe I’m saying that. That’s horrible! Love your videos!!
Man, that Black Hunter with the lamb's wool on the limbs is SUPER QUIET! Great video! Keep shooting that custom bow and get stronger and stronger :)
Lilly you need to get a Joerg Sprave magazine bow.
let me show you its features HAHAHA
Is it just me or is everyone else sooo thankfull that she left the links to her kit.
Over 18 are they kidding me the Boy Scouts n the Girl Scouts shoot bows really ? There not cracking down there cracking up
so there’s always that
Hi Lily! I love your videos and your English is pretty much perfect. The one thing I noticed today was that you describe your dog as 'the dog of my aunt'. I trained as an ESOL teacher, which is English for speakers of other languages. In English we say, 'My aunt's dog'. Similarly we would say, 'My friend's bow' or 'My sister's bag'. When you use 's it shows that the item belongs to that person. I hope you don't mind me pointing that out. xx
If I shoot with my glasses on, they fly as fast as the arrow
Love your bows especially the custom one, signed by the bow maker is a nice touch,you are great shooter too ❤️
Hey Lilly happy Thanksgiving love you girl from Sonny in the USA Tennessee prepper 101,❤️🙏😇🏹🇺🇸👍🎉🎊🔪
I am seriously considering getting a bow you've convinced me maybe I'm not too old yet to learn.
You’re not too old. It is a fun sport. Make sure to buy the arm guard (string burns hurt).
Unreal! I started to take my daughter to archery range when she was 8, and there are lot of young kids there learning archery. what is the problem?! If CZcams restricts archery, then they better do the same for all the first person shooter games as well. Where is the end?
Hi Lily. Looking forward to watching this vid. Good thing I'm 18+52 years old. I guess, like everything else, if you want to avoid bullshit, it's easy enough to do. Just stay away. CZcams can't function without viewers. Time to start looking for alternatives.
OK, now that I've watched the vid, nice bows and nice shooting. I have a similar target, but the center on at least one side is completely shot out. I can't use the center for compound bows because the arrows sail right on through. I'm good enough now, though, that I can shoot at the smaller peripheral dots to extend the life the whole target. They run a bit over $100 in my area. Recently I had to lay off shooting for 6-8 weeks because of some chest surgery, but in a week or so I'll get back to it. I have taken a few shots, and instead of my typical 40 pounder, I find that I've had to go back to my 20 pound PSE Razorback, which is a wonderful economical and fun bow. I have a couple of the Nomad horse bows that are fun to shoot, and a fancier but still economical ILS Olympic style target bow that is accurate but very noisy. Actually, two of my favorite bows are "kids'" bows. I think one is made by Bear and the other maybe by Samick. They are very short, maybe only 40-42", extremely light and compact, but very high quality mini-versions of full-size adult bows. They are real wood and fiberglass recurve bows, and not the silly fake compound bows or the cheap completely fiberglass kids' bows you usually see. They are 30-35 pound pull and lethal enough. Happy shooting.
I only have a compound bow. I’m left handed. ☺️❤️
Bonjour Lilly. I really like your bows, especially those made of wood.
I had bought, to start, a first wooden bow with 45 pounds but I quickly returned to 30 pounds. But I just bought a Salinda Black stone of 35 pounds and I think I could have 40 pounds soon. But I'm already looking at pretty wooden bows that look like your last one. Merci pour cette vidéo

My middle son Malcolm (13 years old) loves archery and I was at a loss as to what to get him to support his newfound hobby, thank you so much
Do humanity a favor. Reproduce! Have at least 2 children and pass on all this knowledge and love for survivalism to them!
You're right, women like Lily, Vanessa Bland and my Wife are too rare.
besides shooting them it is always exciting tuning and accessorizing the bow to make it truly yours and capable for type of archery you have in mind for them.
It's so funny to me how the dog reacts to you shooting the bow. "Hooman is doing something weird again" ^^ 7:27
I've been using a bow as long as I can remember. My son loves it. And I agree 💯 percent. Everyone should get out and learn. The world would be a better place. If we put more value on outdoors and the use of bows.
I love labs . They always stay close and they always retrieve ..always 100%. Labs never leave their owners side .
HELLO AGAIN LILLY ! IM ENJOYING YOUR VIDEOS ! IM USING MY 30lb BEAR RECURVE. I GOT IT FOR $8 AT A THRIFT STORE. IM LOVING IT, AND ARCHERY IN GENERAL !!! IVE GOT SO MUCH TO LEARN, ITS GONNA BE FUN. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS !!!
Very nice collection of bows Lilly. Your shooting form seems effortless! Yeah. I'm jealous!
Hello Lilly, I was wondering if you have ever made a recurve bow from PVC pipe? It may sound a little wierd but it is not at all, PVC is an incredible material. I made one a few years ago with a draw weight of 80 lbs and the thing was a monster. I mention it because it is a simple project that would come in handy in a SHTF scenario. The bow limbs where formed in a cheap and dirty wooden mold. The PVC pipe cost me 3 Euro. I then made arrows from hollow fiber-glass tubing you can find in many hardware stores. These things were deadly and accurate. Think about it.
I loved your Labrador's reaction. She was looking to fetch the arrows for you.
Lilly I really love your archery vids. I hope to be able to ask you questions as I progress in the sport. I used to shoot years ago, just getting back into it
The red one you started with and the blue one in the middle i like.
They are all very nice of course but those two i like.
I like the sleek black one too.
👍🏻🏴
Lilly you said it right there.. ""It's a great sport" .. It's a wonderful sport and that the skills of archery have been passed down for centuries .. Youth in archery , at the club here where i live , that is the greatest sport that continues to grow , nothing greater than coaching children in youth class in the wonderful sport of archery ..And going around the course with a group of little ones and watch their faces when they score on the targets .. nothing like it .A sport to be handed down and it just keeps growing and growing .. Well done Lilly ..
Love your videos! Very instructive and easy to understand .I have watched many videos trying to get back into instinctive shooting. Your information helped me the most. My shot groups have improved. You have real teaching talent. Thank You.
without any prior experience, i tried to pull a 90 lb bow and immediately pulled a muscle in my shoulder which bothered me for months. love your channel.
Nice bow collection. I think going from one to the next with such a variation of poundage would make accuracy a little harder.
I have a Samick Sage which is very nice. The handle is nicely rounded. Some other bows I looked at had a ridge in the wrong place. I strongly recommend using a mechanical release.
It is a ridiculous policy to restrict this video. Thanks for sharing your collection.
Even though CZcams says that I normally watch your videos with my children. My little girl who 10 thinks you are awesome.
I have purchased the Black Hunter Mandarin Duck after seeing your video on it. I absolutely love it. Thank you for the review of it.
How is it holding up? All of the reviews about the limbs splitting and string breaking have given me pause...
@@chriss.3476 so far it is holding up great, however I have not gotten to use it much. So I can't really give a review on it. but I absolutely love it. feels good to use and after putting some silencers on the limbs and string it is a bit quieter.
@@jparker4293 thanks. Did you get the one that's sold by Obert (that is the one linked in Amazon) or did you get it directly from Mandarin?
@@chriss.3476 Directly from Mandarin
@@chriss.3476 directly from Mandarin
Good job...I have been shooting bows since I was 5 or 6..and I still love shooting them..
You are correct, archery is a great sport.You're videos are informative and entertaining.
Nice bow collection Lilly! Archery is a wonderful ancient sport enjoyed by many. I have had many bow's, recurve and longbows. Love the romance of the woods used in them and many are works of art. Modern tools and wood choices of today allow for some beautifully designed traditional bow's but also very pricey. Thanks for posting.
Your last bow is 42lb at 27" poundage is usually measured at 28" so it is probably around 45lb at 28"
I agree that archery should not be limited, but there is a trend to protect our children from what is not good for them. Just think, when my father was a boy everyone was taught to shoot at about 12 years old, and no mass shootings. Now we protect the children from any thought of failure and there are mass shootings. Maybe we should listen to history. So many skills of our ancestors are being lost, skills that we need to survive. Those of us that can teach should teach all that we can. Thank you for your videos.
Leave it to me to fall in love with the most expensive. I still have the fiber glass ones i had when i was a kid.
40 yrs old
Hello momma its been nothing but great fun being a sub to your world and you being so beautiful even in the nature...Mother nature u are and Happy Thanksgiving keep doing what u do from the beach to the wilderness and those travel vlogs
Julie keeps watching the arrows leaving the bow like "ooh stick! Throw the sti- *twang* WHOA! FAST STICK!"
Very good, I like to say my daughter took archery lessons among other sports but they enjoyed this at 8 years old and my son at 11. I think is a fine sport and for hunters alike.
Grüß dich Lilly. Mittlerweile kenn ich deinen Kanal schon einige Zeit und finde deine Beiträge sehr interessant und auch unterhaltsam. Ich hab jetzt kein Video gefunden in dem du ein Blasrohr nutzt. Ich kann dir nur empfehlen das Cold Steel Blasrohr auszuprobieren, es macht unheimlich Spaß und es ist überraschend effizient. LG Hans
When recomending the poundage of the first bow for beginners I use to say to them - archery is not wrestling when it is important to find out which one is stronger and who is going to win. You shouldn't be owerbowed. I really was surprised to see Falco bow at your selection! These were the first bows we started to sell at our shop: Legend, Spirit, Trophy, Robin and of course Twin.
Lol ....Woody ..breaking the rules of the archery range 😆....my compound stayed on 65lbs and it destroyed objects....u would love a compound if u like accuracy...u should get lighted knocks for nighttime ...just for fun ...thanks for sharing your bows. ..all of them are ur favorite 😆
I was curious why Lilly is finally a normal person on CZcams. And now I see why - she is from Austria! So we are neigbours!
My bow is just for beginners at 35 pounds. I'm looking at another recurve at 45 pounds. I wish my town had a archers club but I am learning by watching videos and initial training by a local archer.
I agree with you. Archery is great for young people. I got my first bow at 7 (?) I bought it with green stamps.
Your dog is so confused and it's cute.
You are Awesome Lilly!
Nice bows Lilly .....I have a collection of my own too and they are all vintage recurves from the 1950's to the 1970's ....and are daily shooters ......Bear , Dan Pearson , Indian , etc. love all the wood grain they are a true work of art ....
I love how your dog reacts/gets excited when you shoot. My dog does the same! Good run down. Thanks!
