New bow day#1

Unboxing my new Samick Discovery ILF recurve bow.
This is my first you Tube video, so I have a lot to learn about shooting video.
Any advice or criticism is welcome, ultimately, I would like to make my content enjoyable.
I believe, you're never too old to try something new.
I apologise in advance for mumbling to myself. I need to work on mic placement.

Thanks for the video i am waiting on my samick discovery to be delivered i went with 62 inch 30 lbs hoyt flemish black/brown string cant wait to see your next review.

[@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423]

Thanks for the comment Matthew! I'm loving the bow, I think 62" is the secret to smooth. I've just ordered a string from my friend Tommy, I'll probably do a video when I get it. Hope yours gets there safe man!

@@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423 I actually went with a JC Optimus 17" ILF Riser, though I would've gotten this if I hadn't found that one

[@xfactoroutdoors165]

Well done on the video. Nice looking bow. Hope it gives you tons of enjoyment.

[@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423]

Thanks again! I'm loving it so far.

Would i be able to shoot off the shelf with this bow?

[@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423]

sturmgewehr357 The riser has a good radius on the shelf, the window is cut well past center though. I’m sure you could shoot off the shelf with it, either by building up the side plate, or using something like the Push Archery Accutune. I’ve seen one suggestion where a person cut a matching radius into the bottom of a Bear Weather Rest, trimmed off the hook, and used that for a side plate.

Is the grip real wood or plastic?

[@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423]

It's real wood, medium I would call it. So I guess you could customise it if you wanted. The back of the grip feels kinda flat, took a bit to get used to, but I really like it now. Seems to prevent me torqueing the bow. Reminds me of how they describe the John Demmer grip.

[@MrBradtex]

Thanks. I just ordered one.

[@archeryandstuffwithstevela3423]

Cool! I’d have done the same. I’m not a Samick fanboy. I just wanted to get something a little better than all that stuff you see on eBay. I would have loved to get a Dryad or something like that, but it comes down to what you can afford.
