TOPARCHERY Archery 56" Takedown Hunting Recurve Bow Metal Riser Right Hand Black Longbow

I got an amazing deal on this one with a $10 discount promo which is the reason I purchased it. I'm really enjoying this bow and it works very well. For those who are complaining about no manual, it's in the gallery of this listing. Those who are familiar with takedown recurves shouldn't need the manual and already know how to set one up. # Pros - Take down works great. - Great price for a very well made bow. - Standard tapped locations for sights, arrow rest, and front stabilizer. Some folks mentioned "no area to install a sight", either they changed the design and have added them since or those customers have no idea that it's there already. - Metal riser is well made and has rubber grips. - Limbs are built well and mine came all black without the logo. # Cons - None. # Would like to see - Include the print out manual from the listing gallery so customers don't complain about not getting a manual. This really isn't an issue for me since I already knew what to expect however it's a con for TopArchery since customers are going to troll and write negative reviews. - Include a bow stringer. Again, not an issue for me since I already have one. # Notes - I got the 50# and it's awesome. I think I like the 50# recurve better than my 55# compound. It's a toss up. Always take 2 bows on a hunting trip. The recurve is easy to restring so if by chance something like a broad head slices the string, it can easily be restrung. Great additional bow just in case the compound fails. - I might get the 40# since I really like this bow. - The 1x thick plastic washer that people have mentioned seems to not be used for this setup. Not sure why it's included. Based on the manual (gallery photo) it's not displayed in step 1. - I've attached photos of my setup.

My bow arrived in pristine condition. Stringing it with a bow stringer insures that I won’t get any limb twisting or warping. Chrono gives me an average out of 10 shots of 172fps on a 10GPP arrow with the 50# model. I don’t like that the logo is printed on both limbs. This was purchased for hunting, so I’ll be painting black over that. Overall, a very nice bow for the price point. This bow shoots and behaves very much like my Samick Discovery recurve, just 5-10fps slower. Very very similar to the Mandarin Duck Phantom. I got the 3 year amazon sports warranty just in case, but I’ll definitely update this review if something goes wrong with the limbs. For now, she shoots straight and clean. Very little stacking at 50 pounds, but I am an avid powerlifter and don’t really feel the weight too much so I may not be a good point of view on that. All in all, this is probably the best value for a bow that I have ever seen. There are all of the standard bushings and holes for bolting on accessories. It’s light in the hand and the compound style grip is easy to get used to. It feels good in the hand and has surprisingly little hand shock. I wouldn’t mind making it my main bow. I bought it as a backup for hunting trips but I’m shooting it as my main target practice bow simply to break it in and test its durability, and also because it’s just a good bow. I’ll update in a few months or if something goes wrong.

So far its a good 45lb bow. The bow does have a lot of vibration and the string groves are not cut evenly. However, the string is centered bow on the bow. I bought the bow because of the shorter length. The bow shoots great and has more power than my larger recurve in the same weight pull. Note in the pictures the bowfishing reel, rest and arrow total more than the cost of the bow. The key is not to over tighten the limbs and keep it un-strung when not in use. I will keep the dacorn string since the extra stretch allows my fingers to overcome the pinch on my fingers due to the sharp angle of the short bow. Its not a Fred Bear, but it shoots well.

Update 06-14-24 - Bough it again after i abused my previous purchase beyond use- can't beat 75 for the bow - stringer - string - and quiver. - its a bow kit at a very good price. I had a Tongtu Outdoor Sporting 40 lb i bought three months ago. The upper limb broke off at the riser. So i got this bow instead. The limbs are are straight and there are string channels at both inner limb tips for the string to reline into, nice touch. The riser and limbs have a even black mat finish. Good look. Its pre-drilled for the standard add ones, sights and arrow rest, The arrow rest attachment hole was a little ruff. I needed to insert the rest attachment bolt all the way through the riser from the inside to finish tapping the hole all the way through the riser so I could bolt the rest onto the riser from the outside. Other than the limbs fit evenly and securely. I installed a sight and a after market Wisker. It is a very comfortable bow for me to hold and shoot. Its a very light and well balanced recurve. It put 60 arrows on whatever spot my eyes are focused on. Now if it doesn't break on me my archery will be very happy indeed . It just an excellent feeling and shooting bow. The limb broke because I left it strung for several months- Take the string off after use. It will last a lot longer that way.

L'arco è davvero ottimo. Forse un po' corto per me, ma sembra davvero ben fatto. Anche esteticamente è molto piacevole. Non do' 5 stelle solo perché il rest non entra bene nel foro, quindi ne ho acquistato uno adesivo a parte. E la corda ha iniziato a "sfilacciarsi" dopo un centinaio di tiri, ma per ora sembra reggere. Molto bello il borsone blu, con anche la tasca anteriore per vari accessori. L'unica pecca è che per il rest ci sia un solo foro invece di due, quindi non compatibile con tutti i tipi di rest. Sono invece presenti i due fori per il mirino (incluso, ma non lo uso) e uno per aggiungere uno stabilizzatore (non incluso). Nel complesso, sono soddisfatto.

Arrived on time.Good clear instructions ,well made and sturdy.

Very very durable, easy to put away and reassemble. Only downside is that its huge

Very nice for the price, and shoots very well. The bow has reasonably good quality parts and good workmanship, although it could have been better. From the pictures, I was expecting it to come with a stringing aid, but it did not. A rudimentary bag to keep the disassembled bow (that can double as a quiver maybe) was included though. The riser is identical with the one from Mandarin Duck Phantom, but in this case the limbs have a padding that partly dampens the vibrations and make this bow less noisy.
