- Is it possible to buy a high quality really good traditional bow for under $100? We’re going to show you an awesome one today! The new Sanlida Eagle X9 Takedown 58” Recurve! www.sanlidaoutdoor.com/web/?i...
I swear by cheap made in China bows ... I have 8 of them the most expensive one being $120 and the others all between $60-$97 ... All of them except one are awesome bows. One is not that good, but it's okay for someone just starting out.
Great video and God bless!
The reason they send you bows to try is because your a true honest ambassador for traditional archery. You are the best on utube for traditional archery.cant wait to meet you this weekend at the pre spring fling.much respect always jeff.
Awesome! Can’t wait!
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 hey Jeff, what's the actual length of your fast flight flemish Twist string?
@@flyneagle8873 for the X9 it’s about 54 1/2”
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 thank you, Jeff. The string that came with the set, was to short. It had a 8 1/2" brace height.
Thank you once again, Brother.
I hunted with a cheap black hunter for a couple seasons. I put down whitetail, hogs and a black bear with it. Great bows for the price!
I have a lot of friends who are always asking me what is a good cheap bow to get started with in traditional archery. I have about 5 of the Chinese bows and they are all good choices depending on what style you like and want. I also have a small fortune in custom bows. Your videos and some others are great for giving me ideas to share with the folks that come to me with these questions and since you explain exactly how a person can improve on these bows and then prove by shooting them accurately how good they really are, it is proof. That's some good pudding!
Jeff, I so enjoy your passion and honesty...really enjoy your videos. You've got me shooting my old recurves again, they have always been to fun to shoot.
Thank you so much!
I like this bow so far I'm still playing with my point weight it shoots 200 grains well but it noise dives at distance..So I'm trying 175 grains I can shoot both but they don't noise dive like the 200's do..29 inch draw 400 spine 100 grain brass insert 175 up front total weight 584-587 😊I like it
Im not a rich man so i have to go for no more than 150. My Samick sage is a wonderful bow, but my next purchase wont be recurve, i would love a long bow. But im very tempted on this as youre the second archer who has recommended this bow. God bless 🙏
Jeff I really appreciate all of the lightweight setups your doing. I have a 64” spyderxl 35# limbs 30.5 draw length I’ve just started shooting, I know 28” is the most common draw length but If u ever have time to show an arrow set up and bare shaft with someone with a longer draw length, that would be great. Ur awesome keep it up. God bless
I just purchased an Eagle X9.Thanks for this. I was looking at the black hunter.
I just got a Sanlida one piece recurve. Amazing value being offered by this company. Good video.
I just heard about that bow. It appears to be exactly the same as the SAS Maverick I just bought only $60 cheaper. The Maverick is fun to shoot so I’m sure the Sanlida is.
I finally 🙌 got this in the mail yesterday me and my wife shot it a couple times in the basement it's Awesome 👌 I have officially started my Traditional journey 😊 Gonna put a good string on it and get better arrows...And my draw didn't change from my compound I'm still 29 1/2 draw
I have that same bow , been shooting the arrows and string that came with it . Will definitely change string and arrow set up . Thanks for the video . Gives me more confidence in mine . I have been impressed with it . Still not a good as my Bear
Well Sanlida has a long story into archery world , they sell really really high end bows for target bow which are GREAT, they definitely know how to do a bow
Thank you sir for the great video. I was looking at this for a nice starter set to introduce my wife and daughters to traditional shooting, and this looks like a good deal. I like that it doesn't have all the bells and whistles for attachments, just a nice shelf to shoot from. I'm thinking of going with the 30lb as a nice weight for both them and me.
Again, thanks for taking the time to make this video and God bless.
Absolutely! I think you’ll be very happy with one especially for the price!😁
Great and of course I just got my black hunter recurve. Guess I'm getting another bow. Lol
2 is better than 1 for sure!!!
I just got this bow, changed the strings and it's a fun shooter, still deciding in which arrow setup im going to use, bought the 40lb limbs
Im gonna have to get me one of them!! What is the quiver that is attached? Im assuming thats a modification?
Just got in from shooting my new carbon limbs and saw your video up. That sure is quite a bargain at 100 smacks. Gotta tell ya though, I am soiling myself over my new setup too. Smooth, no hint of stack at my 30 1/2 draw, quiet, quick,absolutely no after shot vibrations. Tomorrow I will set up better, brace heights,tiller for my split finger draw,nock height and adjust center shot. Not quite in your price range though , Hoyt Integra limbs on a Hoyt Arcos riser. Literally busted nocks off tonight. This is going to be fun. Shooting barebow style.
Another great video, I've always said that you don't need to spend hundreds of dollars for a custom bow to enjoy archery. I own several import bows and am in love with all of them, I make new B55 Flemish strings for them and they are a delight to own and shoot.
Absolutely my friend!
Hello Jeff I’m new to your channel and I really enjoy all the info and tips you give out. This is not really related to this video but have you found foam core limbs for recurves and longbows to be slower than maple or bamboo cores? I do a lot of tinkering with trad stuff and I am not impressed with the foam core limb even with carbon instead of fiberglass. Thanks again Bob!
I'll be ordering one in about a week 👍
Great video! And for only $99 , well heck, I just ordered one at 40# will fill you in later with my thoughts.
Thank for your informative videos
Cool!
Can you get different pound limbs for it like black hunter thank you for info
Thank for the information, how about broadheads and field point weight?
Thank you
Richard😎
Cool video. I have the SAS Courage that looks identical and I agree these things are bad! Feels built tough too. I’ve had and have more expensive bows and this thing shoots as well as any I’ve shot. Thanks man!
👊
Good Day Jeff. What differencea do you find with the eagle x9 versus the royale x8 recurve?
what do you think between the sanlida recurve royal and the eagle takedown!
This or black hunter for a new to traditional shooter? I have been a compound bow hunter for 15 years and am interested in traditional. Also what poundage would you suggest? I currently shoot 65lbs compound and don't want to be overbowed, but want to be able to get good and hunt with it. Thanks.
Is the eagle x9 cut to or past center ??
I've been pretty impressed by their Royal 8, 1 piece, 60" recurve. As you said for the money they are pretty hard to beat.
The Royal appears to be identical to the SAS Maverick but $60 cheaper. I wish I’d have heard about Sanlida sooner. I just purchased the SAS.
@@G0rilla216 depending on where you bought it return mat be an option. I mean heck I didn't even have to pay shipping because Amazon carries them and I have a Prime account
Would you recommend sanding the riser to be more centershot than what it comes with? Seems quite a bit non centershot.
What should the brace hight be it's doesn't give any recommendations??
How will it do with a 31 inch draw length you think?
This might be a dumb question?But does your Brace hight have any effect on your draw length??Meaning is brace hight standered regardless of what your draw is...
Amen!
How far up the Limb do you put your velcro??
Hey man. Good video. I just ordered this bow. What arrow holder do you have attached to this bow?
Awesome! It’s a Stop The Drop by Gerry DeCaro, you can order them directly and Big Jim’s sells them also and they are the best!!!
I just got my X9 and my brace height is 9 inches. Do I need to order a longer string? You said 7.5 in brace height. Thanks in advance for your reply to my important question.
Yeah that’s what I found with the stock string it really needs to be no more than 8” max
Jeff. I've hunted with nothing but long bow an recurve. I have the sandline 45. Just bought the same in 50lb. I have a selway quiver but it's the one that.bevel is made inl made in limb can I use it
I need help figuring out a really good recurve to hunt with that will not break my bank. I love Black widow but they cost way to much. Please help. God bless you
I think I solved my foul weather archery by picking up Majesty 3k Carbon 60lb draw.
I have this bow for over a week now, first time shooter. Getting the hang of this now…string and arrow recommendations? There’s so many options
I’m running a D97 Flemish on mine, you can measure the factory one and order a D97 from 3rivers and some Navajo wool puffs plus a couple of brass nocks and it’ll be very very quiet and as far as arrows are concerned you simply can’t beat the Gold Tip Warriors and they’ve got them pre fletched 👍🏻
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 cool thank you very much!
Ok Mr Jeff, I received my bow @40# and I can’t believe it for the money! What a sweat hart! I need arrows, my draw is 29 in, thinking warriors , I plan to hunt with it, your thoughts would be appreciated ever so much!
Thank you for your informative videos and your time
Richard😎
I’d go with them in 500’s and run the 100 grain brass inserts 👍🏻
I am deciding between this or the one piece X8 Royal also Sanlida. Yor advise is very welcome!
Man I just got finished shooting my X8 Recurve with a selway strap on quiver, factory string and the little rubber limb tip protector on the lower limb with some Easton XX75’s and there’s nothing like it! Absolutely dead quiet and super smooth!
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 I appreciate your comment. What about the x8 one piece? better? equal maybe?
I mean x9...
@@luissandoval4093 it’s a sweet shooter too, they’re supposed to be including a D97 string with them now instead of the endless loop Dacron which is not good but the string for the X8 one piece will twist up enough to work fine on the Eagle X9 but my favorite is the one piece.
Hello Jeff I know you get bombarded with questions but I used to shoot compound but quit several years ago and wanted to get back to old school basics with recurve bow. My wife bought the Sanlida Eagle you are reviewing above I wanted to take your advice and trick out the recurve with a good string and some good arrows before I try to zero this bow. But I don't understand the AMO for string size. The bow is a 58 inch so do I get a 58 inch string. Also were can I get the TTT D97 string you talk about. I am a amateur trying to start something new thanks for any help. Danny
Okay on recurves you want to order a string typically 3.5” -4” less than the AMO however all sanlida bows run a tad longer than specified so you will want around a 54 1/2” -55” string for it, you can let Trevor know what bow you’ve got and he’ll know what you need!
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 Got it thank you sir for the help greatly appreciate it and I am guessing Trevor is from 3 Rivers.
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 Jeff you mentioned getting with Trevor about a bow string but you never said what company is he with. Thanks Danny
Just ordered the Sanlida Eagle X9 58” take down recurve. I think I’m going to get a D97 string and not put the factory one on it like you did. Question though should I get the 54” size for the new string? Figured I’d ask you what size you got. Thanks
That’s about right, I think mine is actually 54 1/2”, if you get one of their strings for the 60” X8 one piece recurve you can twist it up and it actually works great on the X9👍🏻
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998
I ordered a Traditional D97 Flemish Twist Bow string 54”from 3Rivers Archery, that will work correct? Sorry for the questions but I’m new to traditional I’m used to compounds.
@@mharris741 it should be yes sir, you actually have about 1” of play with most strings and you want to have the brace height at about 7 1/2”👍🏻
Hey Jeff I reached out to TTT to order a string and they replied back with a Order form. The verbiage “D97” wasn’t on their order form. Fast flight is but it also says Flemish and endless loop strings. Can you tell me what option I need to get? Thanks for your help
Yes sir the fast flight Flemish twist is D97 👍🏻
Thanks Jeff, also can you talk a little bit about leaving bows strung? Do’s and don’t s thanks again
Oh now you've done it. The Sanlida Royal X8 Recurve OR the Eagle X9 Recurve? Hmmm.
True that lol! They both shoot great, the Eagle just has a little more mass weight 👍🏻
Good video. I have a 1970s bear kodiak magnum with a 50lb draw. It's a bit heavy to start out with, so im going to get the eagle x9 with a lighter draw weight. Do you have a link for the string you put on this one?
I don’t have a link for TTT strings, they’re only taking orders on their Facebook page and if you don’t have Facebook you can always order a 16 strand D97 fast flight Flemish twist string for a 58” recurve from 3rivers, they just don’t include nocks and puffs like the Custom strings do also Sanlida is starting to include a premium string on the Eagle X9 now, but the stock that’s already in the US warehouses won’t have them.
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 I do have Facebook. Thanks again! I'm going to order the new string.
@@richardstheman1 good deal! Just ask him to make a 16. Strand for you it’ll be quieter 👍🏻
Yea 😊tell me what I need to do 😊🇺🇸😊
can you use and install broadhead with this bow?
@@heisenbergwalter3363 absolutely yes sir it’s a great hunting bow!
What do you prefer the Royal X8 or Eagle X9?
I really like the X8 grip a bit better it’s just smaller at the throat and feels great but it’s just a personal preference lol
What is the string length if replacing with a D97?
Should be 541/2” most recurves carry a string length of 3 1/2”-4” less than the AMO length of the bow, like a 58” recurve would use a string length of 54 1/2”
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998where can I buy a 54.5 inch I’m only seeing 54”, thanks.
Hi Jeff, do you have an email for Trevor. I don’t use Facebook and don’t want to use it. What string parameters did you order for this bow. I plan to get one today and want a better string. I really like your videos. Thank you and God bless you!
I’m absolutely NEW to Traditional Bow Hunting. Would this be a Good Bow for me to start out with?
Yes sir no doubt!
Thanks 🙏
Samick sage is a good bow, this looks like a shorter version.
How does this bow stack at a 31" draw?
I’m sure it would some , most 31” guys only shoot 62” recurves maybe a 60” but even that can cause some finger pinch also this particular bow has short limbs and you’ll probably want at the very least mediums if not longs on a recurve 👍🏻
@@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 I figured as much, thank you for the reply. It always seems us "longfellows" get the short shaft when it comes to archery and most reviews.
What is the best replacement string for this bow?
I’m running the Sanlida Royal X8 D97 on mine, all you have to do is twist it up a couple rounds and it actually fits great and is extremely quiet! They’re available on the website!
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 So I could use a D97 string from 3 rivers and it would be fine?
@@Tradman47 yes! I’m actually running the Ssnlida D97 string for the Royal X8 on mine, I just twisted it up a couple rounds and it fits perfectly and very quiet but you can get a really good one like a timber hawk from 3Rivers just measure the exact length of the old black Dacron string and order the new one about 1/2” longer and you’ll be good 👍🏻
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 Thanks Jeff
What Material do you use for your Shelf??
Velcro from Walmart 👍🏻
@instinctiveaddictionarcher8998 I thought you might say that lol 😆 thanks
What poundage is that one?
It’s 45#👍🏻
Is that the 60 pound one you bought?
45#
My Royal X8 is amazing for 129.00
do you sell the Addiction shirts
I second that !
I third that
Just ordered mine @ 40#
Awesome! You’re going to be amazed how much you get for the price!👍🏻
😮I mean I’ll pay for it ,I just don’t know go by to get it 👍🇺🇸😊
www.sanlidaoutdoor.com/web/?invite=15192
This is the link for their website brother 👍🏻
Ok, the bow was $100….
How much did you add to it?
String, silencers, etc.???
Could you review some higher end bows
What a great review, I really want one of these but also have no need for it……….hmmm
New to archery. I had to look up what a "Black Hunter" was. Turns out it is not an African American person looking to hunt animals
Yea if you're right handed probably be ok
With the quiver and string it quickly becomes a $300 bow
Well the selway quivers are very expensive lol but there are several way cheaper that work fine I just really like the selway strap on and the strings are $38 so it wouldn’t be far from it! Thanks so much for watching 👍🏻
That kind of quality is worth the extra money though. Selway makes a great product
😮I want one of those so bad I can’t hardly stand it, but I don’t know how, 😢I watch your videos in but I don’t do online stuff, can you help me get one some other way please,,,,🙏🏻 😊🇺🇸😊
www.sanlidaoutdoor.com/web/?invite=15192
This is the link to their website and it’s the only way I know to order one 👍🏻
Then the bow you demonstrated is not exactly what you get in the package, it's a personized, improved version.Please demonstrate the bow exacly as received. A custom string is not cheap.
@@jimaureli6475 The string is the only thing I changed on mine other than that it’s exactly what comes in the package 👍🏻
I really didn't get this video? Hopefully you didn't say Black hunters?
He sure did say Black Hunter. He said there are a lot of Black Hunter bows out there.
It's a bow model name, not a racist comment.
