The fun thing is, everytime steven has shot an arrow you can see his baffled yet amazed faceexpression, how Topoint can make such a Bow for that price and what that means for the industry.
Hey Steven! I just bought a Samick riser. I think they're reviving the company and their new risers seem much better than what they were previously and the price point! Gosh it costed me only $145 for the Avante riser. Definitely worth reviewing versus the other brands at entry level.
the thing a like about these cheap chinese bows with the coloured (fake) wood grips is that theyre so easy to sand down and build up to your desired shape.
Stephen, very well done, I like how you tell us how good or bad a product is. So when will we be seeing/hearing from you about you shooting this bow at one of your shoots. Thank you.
i bought this bow after watching the video, it works great, it looks great. some people at the range with 2 thousand dollar setups like the riser. yeah, its good.
Honestly, if the biggest complaint you have about the Topoint Unison riser is that the grip isn't fantastic then that says a lot, a little Epoxy putty and a file/dremel will make this riser perfect!
I haven't used the X-Appeal riser so i'm not familiar with the grip, but the grip is one of only two points where you make contact with the bow so it seems making it as comfortable and consistent as possible would be the most desirable outcome, be that with altering the grip with epoxy putty and a file or buying an aftermarket grip, having said that the W&W grips really just sit in the hand perfectly from the get go. I have altered my SF Forged+ grip with Epoxy putty to fit my hand and make it much more of a high wrist grip which I prefer and it has made a world of difference. It is funny how quickly we adapt to change once we get past the initial discomfort, after a month or so you may find yourself going back to an old grip you were fond of and wondering how you could use it in the first place.
Hi Stephen, I'm very keen on this riser, but I'd like to know if 70" has a more gradual draw weight than a 68" with similar poundage? I'm 1.75m tall and draw length about 28-3/4". Thank you.
Really enjoying your insights. What are your thoughts on the Spigarelli Revolution riser? It's cheap and free from vibrations even with my 72lb draw weight, even in barebow set up.
I don't get it, why have an expensive riser if you like the one you have? I have a wns elite alpha that is as good as any I have ever had and I would not want to change?
Your video convinced me to buy one , Looks alone are appealing but if it compares to some more expensive brands it's a no brainer! thanks, from Columbia SC 👍
Would you recommend a recurve as a practice aid for a compound shooter? I fell like a recurve requires a far more critical/precise/consistent anchor point, draw tension, and grip to be accurate with them and I am wondering if it would improve my compound game. Or is it a completely different discipline?
Why would it defeat the purpose of a high end sight? Not to mention that any low cost sight mechanism will do whatever any high cost sight can do in the first place? The only difference would be the adjustability of such sight, or maybe the weight. But at the end any fixed reference to tour bow would do?
Hi Steven, Would appreciate input from you and/or the viewers. I recently got into archery nearly 3 months ago and have quickly become obsessed with Recurve archery specifically. I've been using club bows up until now and would like to get my own kit, though I'm a student so only have a small budget. I've been looking at and trying to decide between a few different risers. The main two being the Topoint Unison and the Decut Basha Pro that you previously did a couple of videos on and seemed to like. Additionally I've also considered the Kinetic Stylized riser. Which would you recommend from these (mainly the Basha and Unison as I know you've covered them). Thanks, -Simon
@@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale thanks. the price for this is very similar to the Basha Pro in the UK. But I think I'm going to go with the Unison as I prefer how it looks.
@@minimuffinman ive got the Basha Pro. Very nice riser. My friend bought the Unison... Again very nice. Enjoy and perhaps one day may see you on the world stage ;-)
Great video. How can we know what material is used in the riser? I dont trust some of these foreign countrys as far as if they are forged Aluminum or cast magnesium or some other alloy.
I purchased this bow after watching this and I have to say, 1. its gorgeous, 2. it feels awesome, 3. I love it

Very well done, I believe you could compete with the Topoint, and win the match!!! Nice shooting, mate.
the thing a like about these cheap chinese bows with the coloured (fake) wood grips is that theyre so easy to sand down and build up to your desired shape.
I just ordered one, just because of this video. Some quality program mate well done
Stephen, very well done, I like how you tell us how good or bad a product is. So when will we be seeing/hearing from you about you shooting this bow at one of your shoots. Thank you.
I'm shooting compound this season. But I will continue to train. I would like to shoot it for sure at comp.
i bought this bow after watching the video, it works great, it looks great. some people at the range with 2 thousand dollar setups like the riser. yeah, its good.
always nice vids. curious how the riser would feel w/ entry level limbs and stabs?
That grouping looks pretty dang good.
The riser and the bow as a whole looks beautiful. What accessories are you using in this setup? Sight/plunger/arrow rest/stabilizer.
Honestly, if the biggest complaint you have about the Topoint Unison riser is that the grip isn't fantastic then that says a lot, a little Epoxy putty and a file/dremel will make this riser perfect!
I don't know. Grips are strange I would use it for awhile. I did not like the PSE XApeal grip but after a month I got use to it.

Thank you
That one that went right was the last shot, You didn't seem to to aim that one as well as the others, you shot it off pretty quickly.
Thanks for sharing your know-how.. Can you make a video about setting up the stabiliser and how to check the vibrations and balance? thanks
no problem
Okay Steven, you talked me into a recurve. That is one sexy looking setup.
How affordable is a recurve setup. When you see value it makes trying things ok.
Real men shoot Recurve!
Hi Stephen, I'm very keen on this riser, but I'd like to know if 70" has a more gradual draw weight than a 68" with similar poundage? I'm 1.75m tall and draw length about 28-3/4". Thank you.
I have one in black with Samick ideal limbs feels great

Hi can the topoint unison and basha pro take the 70 lbs draw weight? Thanks in advance
Your video convinced me to buy one , Looks alone are appealing but if it compares to some more expensive brands it's a no brainer!
thanks, from Columbia SC 👍
I got the blue one. Love it.
Hi which one is better to shoot for a competition, the basha pro recurve bow or the top point unison? thanks
Hi, Steven. Are you work every working day at your shop? I think I need to talk to you before I buy my first bow.
How does the Aerodyn compare to the Basha?
Do you currently have the left hand Orange Unison's in stock?
About sponsorship:
Do you think we'll see the Chaser Python at to Olympics now that NUSensei has one??
Olympians are sponsored and paid. I think you will see Win and Win and Hoyt for a long time. Samick use to be big but they have dropped off.
Hi Stephen was impressed with the review Topoint Unison could you suggest limbs lengths for a beginner target shooter ?
the average size is 68". if your taller get 70" if short 66"
Thanks for the quick response Id be 68" is there a suggested brand of limbs you'd recommend with the riser
Might get this one over the R2. Found a local club that sells this for $280 but comes as a set. Limbs, decent arrows, quiver, and alum sights.
Would you recommend a recurve as a practice aid for a compound shooter? I fell like a recurve requires a far more critical/precise/consistent anchor point, draw tension, and grip to be accurate with them and I am wondering if it would improve my compound game. Or is it a completely different discipline?
How much for the full set please reply me
what budget or mid range sight would you pair this bow with ? would defeat the purpose if it's paired with a high end shibuya
Why would it defeat the purpose of a high end sight? Not to mention that any low cost sight mechanism will do whatever any high cost sight can do in the first place? The only difference would be the adjustability of such sight, or maybe the weight. But at the end any fixed reference to tour bow would do?
If you don't mind me asking, what rest do you have on your bow?
That one is probably a topoint one, was using decut metal rest, im currently have topoint but will probably go back to cavalier
what is the draw limit for this?
Hi Steve, can this riser handle 45 pound limbs?
It's machined-it'll handle 45
for 44lbs limbs is it recommended not?
It's machined
It will handle 44lbs
Hi Stephen, love your videos, keep'em comming. Have you tried the Topoint Unison riser with cheaper limbs and does it make a difference?
hi. is this on stock?
Hi can you compare PSE supra focus with TRX
Plz
I have ordered a TRX38.

The riser does not make to much difference just grab a riser you like.
@@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale thanks. the price for this is very similar to the Basha Pro in the UK. But I think I'm going to go with the Unison as I prefer how it looks.
@@minimuffinman one thing to keep in mind is that the Unison is lighter in mass weight to the Decut.
This can be beneficial for new archers.
@@gmivisualsjason3729 thanks, I already bought the Unison and am loving it.
@@minimuffinman ive got the Basha Pro. Very nice riser.
My friend bought the Unison... Again very nice.

Better tighten up your groping... I think you could still get a sheet of paper in between your shots... 😝
See that wild shot - what happened there. Need to spend more time shooting.
I just love I twilight it looks sexy
because they pay sh wages
