I thought the oberon was made by 3 rivers archery its a Chinese bow??

I retired at 50. Now 54. I still do somethings. I wish you both the best in all future decisions

What was the poundage if both bows?

Lucky fella! Lucky fella! You pushed the boat out on this one. You’d have to push the boat out a lot further now. Congrats!👍🏻 From 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

If you ever decide to sell the oberon, to get the lower weight, ill take it off your hands

In one of his videos, Jeff says 28" draw 600g spines, or 29+ 500g works well for recurves. Didnt know if you saw that video of his.

Same thing here on my S240. Was told they have a lot of problems with this unit. One has to wonder why they still use this part. At least the tractor runs . I still have warranty left and it's covered,but I have to pay a pick p and return fee.

The prices have risen a lot since then.

Lookin pretty comfortable with your shot process, nice form.

If you don’t mind me asking… how/where did you get the 62” hermit 10???? I’ve been waiting for it to come out for months now and can only find the 60” model being offered for sale.

I have the Oberon longbow really great bow! Carbon really helps it. I love the people who are upset over the few hundred dollar chinese bows but are driving their $50,000 foreign cars and trucks.

yep, my experience with these folks also. they have a good enough product but if there is an issue their customer service and customer attitude is extremely lacking. There are much better companies for chess items if customer service after the sale might be important. This company's customer service is problematic from the top down, not just from someone answering the phone or email. I have used them a few times but have learned not to expect good customer service.

our s170 is junk - falling apart - less than 2yrs , gauge - e brake- deck - belts we cut the deck supports to stop cut belts - gas tank to small for 24 hp -😮

Watch Jeff's channel? I love that he goes through the foc arrow builds for lighter bows. The obaron what spine arrow ? 500 spine I am guessing. Your longer draw will have some effect on picking spine. Jeff has 27" and he states he shoots 28" carbon to carbon arrow . My draw length is 27.5" which is 1/2 " longer draw but length of arrow on mine has potincial to show weaker mabe not noticable but your draw 29+" the arrow will be a whole inch longer than what jeff shoots so that much length can potincial need to up the spine . Bare shaft tune especialy knock high and low it could be knock to low ramping off shelf but also at a 29" inch arrow outs posiable high foc though 250 Gn dosent seem like it's too much some arrows are more sensitive to heavy front especiely .204 iner diameter. Now legacies I think are .244 iner dia, gold tips usual standered is .246 inner dia. Could it be posiable the eastons at that long arrow length and that spine be more sensitive to 250 Gn tip?? This can cause a issue at release. Could it be posiable may need to go up another spine. Bare shaft will show . I have a 55# black hunter with my draw its 52# at 27.5" I shoot gold tip traditional with a 340 spine loaded front heavy 600 plus gn . This is what it wants with these arrows . They are 8.6 GB per inch. Realy wanted to go with a lighter gpi shaft which makes it easier to build foc. Pretty sure I could better foc with 400 spine with lighter gpi like the warriors or the new obsidians. Also just got a 40# black hunter its 39# at my draw length 27.5" so i will be building a new set of arrows myself. Also I have a ILF bow with carbon wood limbs and even being ajustable center shot it tends to like a stiffer spine than the black hunter at around the same pounds at the same draw. So that's carbon wood limbs versus glass bamboo limbs. Also if I shoot 39# and you shoot 39# s at diferent draw lengths even with same arrows yous will be longer shafts and may be weaker?. Parodox is defitnly more influential in recuve versus compound.

You're right, amazing clothes on that Biff figure! I think it looks pretty much like him, though. Maybe a bit off, but to me he looks closer to the actor than the two Doc figures shown. The Doc on the right looks better...

Sounds like you are at the stage of reflection and evaluating what the future holds. One thing I think you overlooked is how do you intend to spend your future time? When we work, we trade our time and skills for income. If your assets are significant enough to provide income to cover your expenses, you no longer need to trade that time and skills. How different will your life be when you no longer need to trade that time? The answer is different for everyone. I also live in Michigan but spend winters in S. Florida. I exited corporate 4 years ago at 52. So far, so good. Good luck.

Because more than half the people voted for trump...this administration is the worst in the entire history of our constitutional republic..

Kamala was simply bad. In all respects. She would have further degraded our cultural tenor.

PS: Design Flaws, EXPENSIVE, Leaking Tires, LCD Malfunctions, Sucking in Exhaust Fumes... I'll never recommend buying a John Deere.

Yep. I bought a brand new John Deere s240 two years ago and the exact same thing just happened to me. I've gotten the DEFINATE IMPRESSION John Deere executives probably were thinking about "After Market" PROFITS! Sure, "Nothing Runs Like a Deere," until you buy one. Very, VERY DISSAPOINTED in my Deere.

Same boat.Just getting into it and am sponging up everything I can.Im an obsessive and relentless researcher.I want an Oberon SO BAD.Im decent enough now i feel like its time to step it up.I am having a blast just slinging arrows for hours.

Nice to meet ya hope you’re having a great time in the trade family. New sub to your channel. Just don’t over think it Hope you enjoy God bless.

And when you unplug the old gauge, it resets to zero...... So tell em it's at 54 hours....

Time to fix the damage the left has caused over the last 4 years. Trump will fix this up then JD can do 8 years and finish the job. The left has completely lost base with reality. You called every body racist and sexist and everything else under the sun and you wonder why you lost. You alienated everybody except the 10 percent of extreme left. Dumb move now you lost all levels of the federal government to the Republicans.

do you have Trump drangement systom

Same thing just happened to me with the S130. Only 2 yrs old with about 42 hrs on it

S180, I manage 2-1/2 year and 155 hours. Guess I’m the lucky one. But it’s going to suck to buy a new one every couple of years

Have you tried increasing the brace height a bit on the ILF? May help with the noise issue.

Those quivers are ugly lol ... But yea, that's the only bad thing I'll say lol ... Its not mine, so I can't say that ...haha man, you draw that bow with ease, I have impinged shoulders, so I can't pull mines at 40lbs, I have to back off the draw weight, but yea, still working on it ... Cool video buddy, I just started like 2 weeks ago myself 👍👍👍

The ILF sounds quieter in this video. Different noise though. Chinese til you figure it out then go US custom made and both are made in Asia. Believe Sanlida is Korea. 2 for the price of one US made so I understand 100%.

Welcome to the Traditional Family. I am 4 decades in and love it more now than ever.

I’m a disabled vet with some busted out muscles and such like that so I have to be really careful and that 35 pound hermit X 10 that I ordered from China really did fit the bill. If you really want to learn about this thing, go up on the Internet and find a feller by the name of Jim Phillips. He’s got a channel called, traditional, addictive archery or or addictive, traditional archery or something like that he’s got it wired out

Instinctive archery addiction got you too I see lol. Ive been looking at the Oberon recurve, how are you liking it vs the hermit 10?

On the sanlida are you having an issue with your arrow nocks biting to tight on the serving. I have easton legacy arrows and they cling to the serving way to tight, makes a noise when i fire and the arrows get a visible tail swing popping of at the end of the shot. Ive tried several arrow nocks and they all bite very hard on the string.

Just bought the sanlida and loving it. Try putting some felt or velcro between the riser and limbs where they make contact. It will quite the bow down and lessen the vibrations quite a bit.

I have the 40 lb sanlida hermit x10. Silenced up but super loud still. It's OK but I don't love it. Also have a 45 lb black hunter recurve... lol it shoots better than the sanlida. I wasn't super happy with either and I was looking at the oberon. Assuming you mean Jeff Phillips on youtube. I wanted a lighter weight for 3d shoots and joined a facebook group for trad archery in my state and they directed me to a bow maker. He's a pro and makes better bows than any factory made. And you get to pick every detail about the bow. I ordered a bow that's made of dyamond wood with full carbon limbs. Takes 3 months to get because he builds custom bows for a living and it's first come first serve. Can't wait to see the results.

Be sure to unstring the bows when your not using them.

yur a bum

Mine went bad after 2 1/2 years covered under warranty this time bad design

I'll join the comment section with you guys also. Same thin on my s120 at 34hrs. Not worried too much on the fuel guage cause i just fill it up after each use. The hour guage is what i want so i can keep track of the maintenance on the engine and if ever i decide to sell it, i can at least have proof for the buyer on how much time the s120 actually has

Same issue here w my S170 less than 50 hours. Unacceptable for John deer product

I appreciate the comments and personal views. This is my opinion, although not entirely correct.I'm sure. But this is how I felt and feel. Knowing all the faults aren't one administration And falls on the previous ones also. And people can scream about the exaggerations of trump in eating animals Animals, laws not specifying no abortion in the ninth month, or no life saving measures given after a botched abortion... Thus him saying they can kill after birth.. I look past some of that Inderstanding The meaning. Pros and cons to both sides.I just think the democrats lying and misleading more so, Besides the idea printing more money now and giving it out and supporting wars over the whole planet, and mishandling the border for votes Until recently.. Is what i'm focused on. So the left can get violent All they want in words and actions... all while blaming the other side for doing it.. I was expecting people to get on here and really rant like usual. But that's freedom of speech and thought.. Something I think the democrats have More of a problem with. Although trump wouldn't be my first thought I feel I know where he stands more so.. Because he is so blunt And hasn't really wavered on the issues.I'm big on.. Although lightened up on the abortion thing.. Because that's the one thing i'm Ambivalent about and believe in pro choice voiting/ pro choice if an option

I’ve always thought domed were best for targets. The legecy should be best with a 10 grain especially at 10 pumps. I’ve been wanting to stretch the distance on my 1000. I just have a small backyard with lousy neighbors in the city though.

This helped. Thank you

My S130 MowerPlus tm Fuel Gauge also went out with the partial display around 30 hours of use. Manual says in the trouble shooting section that you should look under the seat to ensure connection is secure but it feeds under the deck. It says if the connection is secure and still an issue then to contact authorized dealer. I'm going to check tomorrow to see if I can follow the connection under the seat to ensure connection is good and hope that is the only issue with it. Not feeling very confident that is the issue. Wish me luck!

S120 same issue. What a shit company. Says 120.00 for a replacement

I bought mine in March 2022 just went out this morning. Called John Deere and guess what out of warranty but if you’ll bring it in and pay us a diagnostics fee will be more than happy to research the problem for you then they’ll charge me probably $150 but the part in. Thanks, but no thanks if I known John Deere was this way. I would’ve never bought one. I would’ve bought a club cadet. I’m going to call the store that I purchased this from to see if there’s anything that they can do.

Same here. I got a S240 with less then 60 hours and it failed. Haven’t called yet to see if it’s covered. Either way this should be covered by JD if not maybe a class action lawsuit should be in order. Thanks for the video.

But he lost the debate because EVERYTHING you gave him credit for... HE FAILED TO ACTUALLY DO!!! And you seem to be a bit Kool-Aid doped up on what is actually reality... Trump spent 10x what Kamala will ever spend. You need to open your eyes and think ahead.
