BARE BOW to HUNT READY! 2022 Compound Build, Set Up & Tune

[@ElkShape]

Welcome to the archery rabbit hole!! It’s a deep one, enjoy the journey 🤙✊

[@tatertots-n-soup]

He's right. It is all about making you buy more more moree. You dont need all that junk.

[@rudolphferdinand3634]

I have always loved a longer axle-to-axle now nothing shorter than 32”.

[@tadglidden679]

I haven't shot a deer with a compound bow in neer 20 years but I got my kids into archery shooting this summer and hopefully I will find enough time to get in the woods with the stick and string once again

[@tytaylor7463]

Single pin sights really are the best.

[@radsy5821]

Cheers mate, very helpful. Putting a new string on my Bear soon and will have to go through this process.

[@rudolphferdinand3634]

You are in the trade of compound bows do -it - yourself type of guy, that has all the tools to work on your bows; that is the way I went. After watching you shoot your bow rain or shine, I got my Blackice from 35 yards through an opening 14/15” put 3/4 arrows. Raised the garage door and drew my bow, thank you for your encouragement come rain or shine, go shoot the bow.

[@chrishallal1125]

The best mobile I've seen no one just takes you through every step and just has fun with it this the kind of Bo build I like great job just being yourself

[@paulferguson7432]

I started out with a bow tech bow loved it for about 6 or 7 yrs . But last year up graded to an Elite bow love it even more . Just as comfortable in the hand but lighter and faster then my old bow tech . Worlds apart for me .

[@juanrodriguez-mu7ko]

Awesome job love the work you do. That’s great shooting. I’m a newbie and trying to learn everything I can. Because I just found out that the pro shop I went to had my draw length way to short, and I’ve been shooting like that for five months. They also had my rest in the wrong place it was a mess. Thank i met this man that teaches people and he took me under his wing and is teaching me, He also fixed my rig completely. So i need to learn anyway i'm venting sorry. thanks again i'll be watching.🙏🏽

[@jonathonrenard6521]

Ive never shot bowtech, but you can never go wrong with a mathews

[@ChristianClarkArchery]

those marks on the cams are for synchronization. timing is true to when the stops hit the cables at full draw. the only way to check that is to watch them as you draw back and make sure they hit at the same time. You should also make or buy a draw board, then if it's off, whichever one hits first you add twists (1/2 twist at a time) to that cable that hit first. Just make sure all of the strings are in the tracks and you have pressure on the string before letting it out of the press.

[@ericsadventures7548]

I’ve been wanting a bow so making this video really let me know more about bows

[@Brian-Jan-and-Fraser-dog]

Evening LFG, simple vertical correction can be made with the position of your right elbow, so have a look at that and make sure its in the same position.

[@adventuresofaveragemike]

I've had my bow for 10 years and this year I've finally pulled it out and have been practicing a lot and I hope to get my first buck this year and really my first anything with a bow. I like both of those bowtechs you have, super quiet and very quick. You are right on the money with your shots! Very impressive!

[@crossbowhunter9118]

I am in the same boat I hope this year I can kill a deer with my compound bow I bin shooting my Mathews mission craze for 7 years and now finally I am strong enough to pull back around 50 pound draw weight. So I will go with my compound bow. For the first few weeks with my compound then if I get something cool if not I will go with my 10 point crossbow.

[@tholland5509]

They are both fine bows that’s for sure

[@joebgallagher939]

Just getting into bow hunting this year. Would love some technical Tuesday vids on some bow/deer hunting basics (scouting, scent control, calling, etc.)

[@Tykatka]

Look them up on KZbin for now until he makes them hopefully

[@jimlahey3919]

There are thousands of videos by more qualified archers

[@joebgallagher939]

@@jimlahey3919 then why don’t you go watch their videos? I’m a fan of LFG

[@jonluper8618]

Man with most the googan squad being into hunting and with all the connections y’all have on your fishing side, googan squad should totally get into the hunting side of outdoor sports! I would definitely shoot a googan bow!

[@austinbyrd3549]

Outdoor greatness!

[@jordanw2009]

Boi hunting season so close yet so far!

[@Bhilderbrand]

I just got the same bow! It's my first nice compound so far i love it.

[@shaunroberts9361]

LFG Your the man. Enjoy your vids.

[@miquerto]

I enjoyed watching you set that up. Gear and it's minutiae are fun to nerd out on.

[@FarNorthGuy20]

Awesome video LFG!

[@ruhanvandenberg9458]

Beauty of a bow thanks!!

[@ChilleDxFighteR]

Man I’ve gone more to archery than fishing the last few years glad to see you shooting man

[@LiveLoveFish]

Solid Video!!!! Nice Build Out BROSEPH

[@theironfisherman9814]

Awsome video man keep up the amazing work

[@ericgrammer4893]

How do you get bowtech to give you not just one but two kick ass bows??

[@Cjdklh]

LFG just love your style of content. I enjoy it all

[@mechanichandz8087]

Hey man! i'm using the same exact setup for deer, pig and turkey. only difference is my bow likes the easton axis 5mm match grades in a 340. but i do run the aae max stealths on a white wrap. heavy helical on them and with a 75 grain insert with the 100gr. annihilator broadheads (absolute best broadhead on the market IMO). shot a buck two weeks ago he didnt go further than 10 yards and piled up. i'll be following your journey! keep it up brotha!

[@JayMac]

I really like the glass pack.. What brand is it?

[@clintonmoore1070]

Hey guy, just a couple suggestions! You tied your D-loop upside down for a right handed shooter and you should really give the deadlock system a shot instead of tuning your left/right nock shift with the rest!

[@Below_Average_Sports]

Taking the CP28 this year myself little thing is a machine can't wait to get out hunting with it

[@94twentytwo76]

Great video 💯👍🏻 best of luck this season! 🍻

[@fp_nam]

Love this videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@blakeh81]

Hey man, you probably already know this(him) but John Dudley is the absolute man when it comes to teaching archery techniques and bow setups. Nockon archery on KZbin. Hope all is well. Oh and nice sticker on the bow press btw 😉

[@LakeForkGuy]

Dudley’s vids are awesome! Hey thanks again for the amazing Knife. Taking it to Colorado next week for some camp craft

[@Burberryharry]

I just got my first bow a couple of days ago from Hoyt. I’m nervous And excited at the same time. Keep hammering :)🙏

[@Burberryharry]

Any advice would help btw.

[@josephacker5716]

Should come up to WI in November for the rut before rifle season.

[@jamescarson1585]

If you open your hand on your index release you will find a more consistant shot and it will feel smoother and you will not notice much of a difference between the index and thumb

[@crossbowhunter9118]

I have bad luck with a fall away rest. I had one I loved it it was a limb driven style. But idk if the timing was off on it or what but my arrows flew strange at times and it left a strange line on all 3 of my fletching which I know it is not a huge problem. So the bow shop told me to try a wisker biskit style. I wish I could go back to a drop away but I was told the rest style I have now is better for hunting.

[@JayMac]

Nice to see you running some bowmar grip tape and nose button.. Both have been amazing additions to my setup. From the looks of it you might benefit from using a side stabilizer

[@jamescarson1585]

I was gonna mention the bowmar nose button and grip wrap but with using the serving string as a nose button is technically better cause its less weight on the string so it doesnt hurt arrow speed as much as the nose button

[@mrmachinist8834]

Sweet video! Sweet bows! I have a Bowtech carbon knight and love it. Bowtech makes great bows! Your technical ability and attention to detail is rare keep it up!

[@JTVoutdoors]

I have never been able to shoot anything with a bow. I had a bow for about a year but moved and didn’t have space to shoot so I had to get rid of it. I’m finally in a space where it wouldn’t be an issue but now no bow money lol.

[@sauceboss7571]

Alright guys,correct me if things have changed.I haven’t shot a bow in 20 years,but grew up hunting with them.It’s what got me into the sport.We always used a sling,and never “gripped” the bow.Wouldn’t that help on the “pulling”? I was pretty dang consistent using a glove and no release lol.I know technology is so much better now.Just putting it out there. Love you LFG!!

[@igomez26]

Thanks a Lot

[@markfulcher5532]

Good looking setup. Question on the quiver…it looks like the bottom is the only part that moves. If the top moved up, that would keep the nocks out of the dirt like you said but if only the bottom moves, that does nothing for overall arrow position. Right?

[@thehippyhillbilly3229]

Id be happy with any bow. this plandimic has runied my life. but we keep keeping on. lfg thank you so much for everything. YOu have got me through alot. i lost my dad ab 10 yeas ago and you look so much like him and act so much like him its crazy the void you fill. ONe Love and prayers to all your family.

[@LakeForkGuy]

Thank you man, time in the outdoors heals the soul for sure

[@5376JDM]

I have a hard time letting go of the old bow ....but I have forgotten about it since getting the new one...lol!

[@mikedelacruz3135]

🔥🔥🔥 episode Brother! Id take the new one, and watching you go start to finish was super dope! Cheers with a frosty adult beverage Sir Rackley 🍻👊🏼😎🤙🏼

[@garyk76]

I'm not a big bowtech guy but from the reviews I've seen both the bows you have shoots basically the same velocity but the SS is smoother

[@Dietz4502]

I didn't know there was actual tape for grips on bows now lol maybe it's only BowTech but I used hockey tape on mine. gets the job done🤣💯

[@ReubenOaks84]

Great video, I don't think I could shoot a compound without a peep sight, you can't always get a perfect rest and anchor point while hunting, especially in a tree stand where a deer can walk up from any direction.

[@chrishallal1125]

The older I get I want the smoother SS would be my pic. Yeah if you just want something else that is badass you go with the 28 younger don't shoot a lot on the ground 28 would be perfect for you if you like to shoot a lot you need to go with the solution just my opinion.

[@boxy8438]

I want to try their new xl. I've switched to crossbow thanks to bad shoulder. But still like to shoot my deadeye for fun. And would love to see what a bow with proper draw length for me might feel like. Maybe even be able to shoot more than 10 times and not have to wait a week to shoot again lol.

[@LakeForkGuy]

Yea man, I’ve had shoulder issues being a pitcher in my past life. Rubber band training does wonders

[@deanrandall8542]

Thanks Justin, really appreciate your input on the bows. Really hope you get to bag a deer with the bow you built! It's a work of art!👍 Happy hunting, and be safe!🙏

[@DIXIECRAWLER13]

What kinda speed you getting and what's your arrow wieght they sound fast

[@Xebadir]

Nice setup and clear walkthrough. Prefer the longer axle to axle and smoothness myself, even from a treestand - sort of forced due to big wingspan though. What draw weight are these two? Been setting up bows for the wife and I for this season for Elk - might have to take a look at upgrading the rest after seeing yours here. Shooting a PSE Drive 3B XL here.

[@samoermann469]

You should go shoot TAC! You could create some great content there!

[@ZachShannon]

Will you be hitting the elk woods this year?? I want to see some redemption with the Born and Raised guys!

[@BryerCrandall]

Definitely would have gone with a 5 fixed for the one meant to be in a ground blind, gets really hard to see the sight tape

[@tytaylor7463]

Yessir

[@brandond88]

What arrows are you running?

[@codycase2267]

Awesome video! What is your total grain for your arrows with the broad heads?

[@dennis10721]

I'm like elite bows

[@Gibsonlife573]

I know a lot of people may not do this but if you're going down the rabbit hole of archery I would check out John Dudley hes an amazing coach and Archer itself and hes got a lot of stuff you can learn from off just KZbin Mars one don't move your feet once you're settled you're set you're set you know for superb accuracy you really don't want to be moving around a whole lot you want to shoot nice and tall and proud not such over and you really don't wanna punch the trigger

[@LASBEAR]

Love the bow videos. I'm looking into getting into archery hunting this year as I have been rifle and shotgun hunting my whole life. What would you recommend for a beginner as far as bow releases? The index or thumb release.

[@LakeForkGuy]

Love to hear it! Nothing wrong with index releases. I would recommend them for hunting because they stay strapped to your wrists. One less thing to contend with when deer is walking out

[@mikeferland9185]

I agree with the index release I've shot for years with them and honestly love them I like keeping it simple

[@mikeferland9185]

I been doing the same thing with my bow and my daughter's bow wish I had a bow press though I'd love to be able to mess with my peeps

[@teresad6495]

Was that an Annihilator broadhead I saw there???

[@asianboi08]

Hopefully you level your axis on your sight.

[@RiggintheDubVee]

I'm poor livin in WV, can I have your old one????? Kidding and not at the same time. Best of luck with the season though and can't wait to watch it.

[@tatertots-n-soup]

bought a bow press to precisely install the peep so I didnt need a guide tube or special nock

[@tatertots-n-soup]

I needed to break down my bow at anytime and as many times in a row as I wanted without messy dangerous straps hooks and chains.

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

I've never used a compound bow. When I was a kid we used to make our own bows and arrows from whatever we could find and use that. That was in the 80s. The only time we ever saw a compound bow was on TV at the Olympics. All of the terms you're using are totally foreign to me lol.

[@whystop3388]

❤️

[@jameswalters4358]

I love how they claim axle to axle but just put way bigger wheels and cams on them to increase the size. Overall length is a better way to gauge versatility.

[@drbigheadphd]

I'd take the longer bow with the peep. Seems way more accurate. Wanna make an ethical kill.

[@tatertots-n-soup]

Where is your paper(multi) tuner and chronograph?

[@Gibsonlife573]

If there's anything I can recommend would be to find a good set of custom strings and really affect your Earl flight people don't realize it like uh I know you can have all the note nuts boats and crannies together But if you aint got a good set of strings and you gotta lot of strange or something like that maybe you gotta be messing with it all the time trying to keep it in 2 have you got a good set of custom sthat's some strange you don't have to worry about no stretch at ll I have a set on my bow that I built personally which I'm not no professional but anyway and They have been on there 2 years and they have not moved

[@comiketiger]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ethanallenmusic1]

I'm no expert and don't claim to be. But it looks like you're getting some riser torque in your front hand due to your relatively vertical grip. Look at John Dudleys school of nock series and he can really show you how to dial in your form and enhance accuracy.

[@jeboutdoors377]

Lfg i got a question for you. Im build a ar15 300 blackout. What is your thoughts on getting a night vision scope. For a guy thats on disability can't afford much. What name brand you recommend for me sir

[@LakeForkGuy]

Sight mark makes some affordable IR scopes. I would get an upgraded light for it but they don’t break the bank light thermal and NS. I have an upcoming night hunting video using one so you can see the clarity

[@ApexPredatorOutdoors]

If you have some sort of nose device on the string you really don't need a peep sight. I can be pretty accurate out to about 90 yards without one, and even if I take my time I can hit 100 yard shots no peep.

[@LakeForkGuy]

I love shooting with out the peep but I’ve found when I’m crammed up in a tree or leaning around some cover, my head tilt gets off form with out a peep.

[@ApexPredatorOutdoors]

@@LakeForkGuy That's all good. Practice makes perfect. I've thought about going back to a peep sometimes but have just gotten so used to not having one.

Hey lfg I have a friend that lives in red oak tou need to go hunting with. He had a TV show called buck ventures with Jeff darker and chipper Jones. His name is buddy groom. He was a pitcher for the orials Yankees and other teams.

[@Gibsonlife573]

Man I would watch that putting lock tight on them boats it's bad enough you're putting steel into aluminum riser you're putting the steel screw into a aluminum riser which causes anidizing or whatever the heck is called it's called and it really locked Them in there if you just tighten them down early tight wouldn't you go to break and lose usually Smoke will pop because outside them screws are sometimes you have trouble even getting them out it's a lot tight you're gonna be in trouble I feel like myself personally I've never had them screws come undone as long as I tighten them down since you're pretty good anything they've always been a nightmare to get out sometimes

[@l.i.archer5379]

Those cheap levels are the Chinese knock-offs of the ones originally made by R.S. Bowvise, someone I used to work for in his archery shop. I can tell just by the color of the yellow of the plastic that those are the crap ones. I wouldn't trust those at all. I just got myself the Solution SS a few days ago from a new Bowtech dealer in my area. Still waiting for my stabilizer kit, which should be here in another 2 weeks. Ugh. Gonna be shooting Winter league with it, but it first needs to be set up and sighted in.
