This video was made and produced in Austria.
After this video I put the peep up by about 1.5 cm then it was possible to use the new sight. However I still think that manufacturers should offer more holes so that archers dont have to keep the peep so high. With my smaller head I would prefer to have the peep a little more down.

Its gunna be great to find them for years to come in peoples attics
I went the other way --from compound bow to recurve and now Turkish horse bow. Simplest of all. I made hard leather thumb rings and shoot better than all the others
Great option for someone who doesn’t wanna spend a arm and a leg with compound bow. I would like to see you doing a video about how choose the right arrows for a bow. By the way where did you get the arrows use on this video?
happy lockdown lilly!! stay at home this time please danke
The true test for Rambo is when you can take down a Mi-24 "Hind"
After watching this video I got this bow for Christmas as my first ever compound bow. I have to say that apart from the cheap plastic bow rest (which I have replaced with a whisker biscuit rest) it is a very well made, powerful and accurate bow. Thanks Survival Lilly for reviewing it so comprehensively.
Always like seeing you have fun, I appreciate your teaching skills 😃
I’m loving this part of your journey, and I can’t wait to see the rest of your camper conversion. I only have experience with firearms, and I’m really enjoying learning from you in the archery area. Have a good day!
Andréa, I have schizophrenia and I would like to smoke marijuana. Can marijuana harms my brain smoking weed Just once? Do you know something about marijuana? Can you help me?
@@juanpedro4083 once I saw a cat walk into a larg dark drain pipe. I think the darkness ate the cat.
I had no idea bows were so complicated! I learned a lot about them from your video, good job!
So Lilly is a big rambo fan. Why am I not surprised 😋
Wundebar! What a woman! Not all men can handle and adjust a compound bow on their own these days. So technical and skillful
There are so many skills in the world, you can master only a handful and shooting and adjusting a bow is not the most valuable.
Nice one Lilly, really enjoyed that, thanks for shearing your excellent knowledge with us. I'm not a bow hunter myself but really appreciate other peoples disciplines.
best regards.
I always learn something watching your videos. Thank you Lilly!
That was just like the old school bows i used in the 90's. The thing about the finger release and the old beast pins is that they are almost bomb proof. I've had releases freeze on me in late season deer hunts. (Late December in Canada) Nothing is worse than dropping your bow due to cold hands and iced rope. From a prepping stand point, if you have to hunt for a meal you want your equipment to work in any weather. Great video by the way. Makes me feel nostalgic. Might have to get my old bow out and shoot it a bit. Have fun with it,they tend to be pretty forgiving with arrow weight and size.
I never shot compound bows and maybe I never will, because I am a thumb archer with Turkish horsebows and an English Longbow archer. But this video was very interesting and provided a lot of information! Thank You!
Да, здесь действительно много полезной информации, но восточные кавалерийские луки и английские традиционные длинные луки точно содержат в себе свою особую харизму, романтику и эстетику ) на мой взгляд )

Wow, you impress me, I tried hunting with a Yew long war-bow, I had to hold 120Lbs at full draw, no time to aim, it was all instinctive, but talk about penetration and range. A longbow is a real man's bow as for the Turkish Bow, now I have to find one, I am keen to shoot one. Any readers in Western Australia with a Turkish Bow I can knock a few shots out of?
I'm new to archery. Your video was awesome. I was glued. Thanks for sharing. John.
Lilly that's a cool bow, that cable will last for years of shooting you only have to replace the string in between the hooks, I grew up with a bow like that.
Hi Lilly! Very nice explaination and demo. Good job!!! Stay safe.
I just bought one. I have not shot a bow in over 30 years and wanted to get into it again and found your page. Thanks Lilly.. I am learning everything from you!!
Great video! First Blood part 2 is my favorite archery movie! I bought the American version of this bow from Amazon, a few years ago. I ended up returning it and getting a Samick Sage. Have preferred recurves, since.
Lovely Channel. its refreshing listening to you compared to a lot of the other archery / hunting channels which are sometimes daunting for a beginner. Also, of course, Joerg Sprave is an internet legend. Great work !!
Really enjoyed this Lily, you have an amazing knowledge of this and I learned a LOT!
Hoyt actually made the "Rambo" model in the mid 80's. lots of people still shot them with releases. Avg bow length back then was 44+inches axle to axle..
Lily, I love the fact that you’re always open to try new things😍
I have the same bow and I love it. We have both added the exact same attachments as well. I love your videos and value the knowledge and reviews you share
I still own and shoot my Hoyt/Easton Rambo back from the 80s. I even owned the Rambo junior when I was a wee lad.
Archery nerd!!!
👍
Same here mate!
I have one also. It was handed down to me from my father in law.
Cool . . Seems like I´m not the only one shooting a classic , I do still use my old PSE Titan and using a PSE Mongoose Pinsight . . . :O) .
Question, i see rambo canting the bow. however, it has a shelf, so no need to cant it, right? in fact, wouldn't that spoil the shot?
I have my original Hoyt Easton bow i got back in the 80s ,still shoot it .I'm left handed and have it set at 50lbs still shoots great. Every where I go it gets a lot of attention by the Rambo fans glad to see you are one!!😃👍
I don't shoot a bow, but it was really interesting watching you setup this bow. Good job!
So cool you're testing the ManKung !!!
I have an $800 Bowtech Assassin....
But the first bow I bought was the ManKung...
And I think to this day...
IT'S STILL my favorite little bow!!!
That thing is so light!!!
It's old school BUT I just LOVE shooting it!
Love to see you calibrate your tools. Inspiring. Cheers!
An interesting review..!
You did a good job of
" improvising, adapting, and overcoming " the challenges of the bow
customizing and shoot ability!
C ya on the next video! 👍🐺🧙♂️
Hi Lilly. I’ve been shooting the same bow since March and I love it. I target shoot with mine and fitted a recurve target sight which works great but no good if you want multiple pins of course. My bow became a little rough on the draw after a while so I changed the cable slider for a Limbsaver teflon slider which works brilliant and separates the cables to. I think your nocks may be set for recurve so you may need to rotate them so the fletchings clear the rest. Enjoy the bow, I think you’ll really like it.
Great technical information, thank you Lilly!
The wheel/ cable system on that bow is exactly the same as the old Bear Black Bear hunter which I have used for over 20 years. In my opinion, it is superior to more modern bows which are far too complicated. I don't think you'll regret your purchase.
I've found a new handle: Rambow Harvest lol
Hi Lilly I watch your survival vids I'm impressed that you know so much about the deep woods skills that people don't have no clue about your knowledge is great you know 100% more than my goofy friends .awesome job on the bow takin apart and putting it back together again
love these series
hi lilly. watching you from brazil. I just started at archery and your channel helped me a lot, thank you very much! and very nice bow! XD
Lilly first blood: they drew first blood not her!
Thanks for the great video Lilly, you are lovely, greetings from Australia.
I wanted to see how the setup all the original stuff! you have so much knowledge, but nice video!!
Good vid can’t wait till next one
Its funny how Rambo used a Step Drill Bit as his exploding arrow heads.
Lilly did you say the peep sight comes with the bow as well as the sight attachment? Thanks for the great video. You are very knowledgeable about bows and I love that you share that information with us.
I bought this bow a year ago and it has been amazing, I have not put any other sights on it as I run it completely stock and it has never let me down.
Thank you for your knowledge. And a great video I learned a lot
Love the LIDL needle nose pliers! I have a pair of those too!
When shooting inside at that super short distance use the 40 yard pin with that multi pin sight. Then set up normally when you get outside
Such a great video. I really learned a lot.
A follow up video of Lilly playing Rambo in the woods with her new bow is required.
Need the exploding tips now
Bullets could be used as a trigger. The question is how much explosives you can pack on an arrow...
That demo ranch mad lad took 2 different magnum pistol casings, filled them with tannerite and slipped 1 over the other on the end of crossbow bolt and shot it. Doesn't do much more than make a loud concussion but still pretty sweet.
@@oldmanx1234 it doesn't look that hard to me, except you make your explosives yourself. The system could work for instance with a large caliber round that had been fired and you replace the primer. There are kits for refilling rounds in the USA AFAIK. Then you'd need to glue a tube slightly larger than the arrow shaft next to the primer. For stability reasons it would be best to have it flush with the casing and put a band over both. On one side, you'd need to insert an arrow shaft with a short striker and it should fit snuggly so that it needs quite an impact to push the striker into the primer, else it would explode during launch due to inertia... The other end would need to be filled with a high explosive and sealed. That's it. However, since the brass is heavy, cutting it down and replacing it with plastic and ideally a 3d printed aerodynamic shape would be highly recommended. However, in that case, the plastic needs to be somewhat impact resistant.
BTW: if you're a crazy MoFo, you could simply use something like nitroglycerin or tetrameric acetonperoxide without any trigger system... It would not be 100% reliable and definitely not safe, but kids have done that before even without blowing themselves up, at least the smarter ones...
It's already been done with bullets.
Pretty dangerous but super badass coolness.
Look it up.
I made a few experiments with explosive arrow tips. I used a tiny handmade ETN hollow charge tip I made myself. It penetrated 2,5cm of Aluminium very easily. I never tested it on steel, however.
*Recycle triangle has a code number in it that can be referenced to type of material.....
I’m a fan too of the First Blood Movies, the survival skills shot in the film are incredible.
I love your videos.
I am fan of clint
Always enjoy your videos
Hi Lilly. I'm shooting compound bow without peep by using IQ sight with retina lock. I think the best (and simple) arrow rest is a whisker bisquit, atleast for hunting. Cheers.
Oho, so not only me found peep annoying. After recurve era in my life ... I don't need aiming aids for composite.
Thanks for this interesting video. I enjoy your technical skills in the shop.
Hi Lilly. Great video. You can make an aluminum adaptor plate to shift your new sight down. 4 holes. Flat head screws to screw adaptor to bow then tap two holes in adaptor for sight screws.
Extra cool liebe Lilly, mit all Deinen Modifikationen, äußerst lässig ;) LG Sepp
Hi Lilly! You can attach the rubber to the side cable :D try it, works batter and the string will not be on the way when you move the bow.
As for the bowsight if you remove it from the bracket, and flip the bracket upside down and remount it, it gives a different amount of distance and that should work for you. You can also adjust your peepsight up and down to give more or less also
used to watch your videos back in 2016-17 and recently came back. i see no difference, same old good quality content
Looking at the current bow today, it seems they're offering it with the changes you've suggested and done to your bow. Thank you. You changed things.
Lilly, It's a retro bow like Fred Bear made. There is a site 3rivers Archery in the states that have parts and everything else. Realizing that you have some limitations, I see pushs ups, hanging off a bar and other exercises in your future.
I have a bear. hunter model 70 lb, shoots great I love it
That gold explosive broadhead that he used was actually a razorback broadhead with it's protective cover still on. All they did to it was paint it gold!
No shit ?!
I always tought Rambo was a documentary 😕
I have the exact same set up and the 5 pin sight and biscuit combo does work when you adjust the yard pins and have the sight on lowest setting on the same bolt holes, no need to drill. Love this vid helped me a lot with this model other wise. Keep up the good work.
You have a fair knowledge of archery. Very entertaining. T'was fun to see you TRYING to bend the bow. Guess it was out of range for you but you succeeded anyway. Thanks for your time.(M.G.' Quebec, Canada)
Hi Lilly, I've just bought the EK Archery version of this bow, though sadly it doesnt have adjustable cams... ☹
Thanks for the review, there were virtually zero instructions supplied, so your video has been very helpful! 👍
It only cost £85 for a 55lb left handed model, and I bought this with the intention of making a home built left handed version of the Fenris and hopefully it will be suitable..., total cost should be less than £250, rather than £1000😉
Your triceps are getting almost Rambo sized!
Tricep is not used.
Very cool find!!
Now that's a review!!! Straight to the point, easy to follow and understand, and still be amazed in the knowledge and skill this woman has! I have never shoot a bow, interested yes, so I watched these videos, and after so many, this blew me away! WOW!! Great job and thank you!! (Donkey Field Mouse) Say it fast enough it will make sense, if you speak German
Great video. I went compound with sights stablizers the works got pretty good. One day just decided to shoot my longbow I was surprised I had got really good at judging distance and having a repeatable draw cycle. I now shoot traditional all the time but I put my year using a compound made me a better archer.
Lilly: "I'm a big fan of Rambo".
Me: "No shit, really?" 🤣🤣😂😂
Hi Lilly,
If you de power a bow by loosening the screws it would be safer to put a few washers behind the limbs and tighten the screws down on the washers. Your bow tuning is great!
ITS ONE REASON I STILL HAVE MY "PEARSON ROUGE BOW " . IT REMINDS ME OF RAMBO'S BOW !!!
I was thinking that you could drill different holes for the modern sites and then you said that you would at the end of the video.
if i remember i think you can remove the ring and pins and attach to the pin frame that came with bow
It was interesting to see how you are tuning the bow by shooting through paper. Learned something new.
Nice, your first release with the trigger release I saw a left finger was sticking out ;-)
subbed. What type of knot did you use to tie the peep?
It's ok to use a bow that doesn't have the same exact specifications as Rambo's.
But must absolutely use bomb arrows.
I’ve been using that phone for five years that absolutely love it between 35 to 40 m pretty dam accurate
Reminds me of adjusting my air sport rifle. Creating smaller groups :) every little detail matters:)
You certainly are an expert with bows. Very cool. 👍
Looks very similar to my 1990 Bear whitetail 2.
I love that thing and still shoot it often.
I had a bow like this when I was 10 it was the summer of 1970 it was a Fed bear white tail and I added a spool to it and used it to shoot red tail carp in the river
Loses her glasses, stops surviving
4 turns out from tight is 30 lbs. The slots are the draw length. I bought that bow loaded with everything and great sights (the one u don't like) for $202 Canadian dollars. It's an excellent bow for the money. It's make is called SAS the one I have but it's the same bow!! I love it with a D-ring and trigger. It's great!! The cable is steel it won't brake for a long time and you only have to replace a Short bow string.. it's very accurate at 100 ft and very powerful, passes half the 30" arrow through a 5" thick straw target.. I love it!! Only thing I don't like is the peep sight it never is perfectly straight. I put a yellow dot on the bow string with paint and it's perfectly lined up with the center of the sight u don't use.. it's well well with the money..
Slot the holes or put two new ones in the bracket where it mounts to the bow. Then you can lower it and add more pins. You do great job setting that bow up. Makes me want get one. I stay with the more traditional mandarin. Thanks to you!
What? You're a big fan of Rambo? Well, you keep surprising me and I like you more and more with every video! Keep 'em coming.
Hi! Great video! I have the same “generic” bow branded by SAS, Siege 55, I find the serving cord thick for my nocks. What kind of arrows/nocks are you using?
I was looking at the same bow on Amazon from Southland Archery Supplies. I grew up on Rambo too but I'm not a huge fan of the black finish of this model. I am going to get the get the Autumn Camo it's a really nice finish. I plan finger shooting with it mostly so I will use the traditional pin sites and whisker biscuit with a knocking point but I will add a d-loop with peep site, stabilizer and wrist loop that way I can shoot anyway I want and get in the compound game cheap. Whether it's target shooting or hunting.
P.S. Just buy a spare bow from Amazon for parts if you need them. It doesn't cost that much.
I Love the way she keeps saying screw
Thanks for this great review! Made me some appetite for getting into this kind archery again ;-)
Btw. Is there any way of getting this bow in central europe without high shipping costs from the us? Thanx
Looks much like my Bear Black Bear that I used in the 80’s-90’s. Used Aluminum 2217 arrows, same pin sights, but I did used a trigger release. Still have that bow, but it’s retired.
Did you try mounting your circle pin-sigh to the frame of the pin-sight that came with the bow?
Well I never thought of going out that far with a bow nice work
a lot of archery stuff lately. hows the tower going? also, you get even more awesome every video i watch. crazy.
This looks a copy of the Black Bear I had in the early 90s, which by itself was a copy of the Rambo one. Got me very nostalgic.
You can position string nocks on cable to hit. Cable guard at full draw for a solid back wall !
Great video thanks
Those cables will last sooooo long because of the low weight, great video
Greatv review! Looks like a nice Bow for the money.
Lilly , I forgot to mention Valerian root for the shoulder. I've crashed my brains and body out a bunch. Hope it helps.
Next episode: Lilly goes to the gym so she can draw the bow 😅
All joking aside, would watch to see which exercises would work for archery.
Best thing you can do is to shoot your bow regularly. As close to daily as you can, I like to fling at least 50 arrows a day when its warm out. 5 arrows for 10 rounds minimum
