Bear AuSable longbow review

A review of the Bear AuSable longbow

[@dff1286]

I was impressed when you casually mention that it was a 50lb bow, your daughter handles it as easy as breathing.

[@RedSkinPB]

Wow, She has very nice form, especially with a 50lb bow!

[@thevelointhevale1132]

Well done Dad, you've raised a bonnie lass, sharp as a tack - from a Father.

[@joshcarter-com]

Great video, I love seeing both you and Lucy. My own daughter has discovered her talent for archery and out-shoots me easily these days, so I love finding good father-daughter videos that we can watch together. Keep up the great work, both of you inspire both of us!

[@Wingman115]

As always Jeff great video! As a father of a daughter myself it's great when you can share a activity together! Awesome times and great memories. Thanks for sharing.

[@64puma64]

My hat is off to Lucy. Very impressive, young lady!

[@michaelwatson1428]

Great Video, I was just shocked in amazement at the accuracy you both posses.

[@cannalcannal8532]

Ive never seen a more beautiful archer.And none of that mechanical rubbish either.And what a shot!Thank you very much for this wonderful video.

[@UncleDansVintageVinyl]

Great review! You and your daughter are both really cool and wonderful shots!

[@tiedemann8225]

Another great vid. I practice from your tips and advice, and it works great for me. Thanks, and great shooting by your daughter and you.

[@yauki1312]

You two are hilarious to watch and your daughter has amazing skills, just like dad.

[@bcuyenoyama]

Great video as usual. Beautiful family too. Keep up the good work.

[@OzzieTrev]

Your best video yet Jeff!

[@donthornton7528]

Love to see you guys get back on the channel I'm a big fan

[@TrikeSquadron]

Fun video to see you and your daughter bantering about the bow! She is funny and cute and wow a great shot! Amazing shooting.

[@joeyjfivelujan5777]

best shot with a bow that i have seen .. great shooting. . and you taught your daughter well!

[@NathanSkyrme]

You guys make a real good father/daughter team :) Nice job!

[@KnightetOfCydonia]

Your daughter is amazing. I'm entering the world of archery this year and she inspires me

[@John-sz7vf]

Jeff dude, You and your daughter are some of the best shots on youtube! love you guys

[@OlWhaleNZ]

Enjoyable video with some impressive shooting from both of you. Thanks!!

[@duncandemicoli4725]

She's real sweet & highly skilled! Awesomeness Mr Kavanagh!

[@MarkMphonoman]

Your interaction with your daughter was quite funny. Great video, Lucy is a great shot. Thanks. Mark

[@quetzalt.v.1093]

Nice looking bow, awsome Father and daughter team...thanks for sharing greetings from Guadalajara Mexico!

[@ehsuz]

Hey there, excellent review. I've been looking at one of those for while. Its a very helpful review. Thanks. Your daughter handles the bow very easily. And yeh they do look like Tribbles.

[@tomchapman1774]

I am glad you mentioned the grip. I picked up a used Montana, and customized it with auto body filler because the grip was not good at all. Now it's like the AuSable grip. You might enjoy the Montana more if you try the same. I just taped off the riser above and below so that I wouldn't make a mess and then sanded it down to perfection. I used the grip on my Shakespeare Yukon as a template. I covered it with a homemade bullhide grip afterwards. It feels great in the hand and the performance is not affected at all. BTW I still use my old 31# Shakespeare Yukon to work on my form. :) Bet wishes to you and the family!

[@ehsuz]

Heu there, excellent review. I've been looking at one of those for while. Its a very helpful review. Thanks. Your daughter is an excellent shot and handles the bow very easily. And yeh they do look like Tribbles.

[@cubefarmerhkc9105]

Outstanding shooting. I love traditional archery.

[@extrasmack]

Great vid. Sounds like the AuSable has many desirable traits usually associated with much higher priced bows. Just like Jeff I learned with recurves but want to try one of these out for myself now. Also thanks for the Star Trek humor Lucy. From now on I'm referring to large string silencers as Tribbles! lol

[@michaelbolen2118]

Thanks for the review, very helpful - thinking about getting a longbow/straight bow. Nice shooting 👏

[@SuperJayman27]

Jeff,your one of a kind!!!

[@larryperez4789]

very nice shooting by both of you it shows you two put your time in, very impressing

[@tompanetti75]

Very funny. Most enjoyable video, and shooting. You guys made my day. So, happy to find you on KZbin. I will be watching,all your videos this weekend. I subscribed today. A lucky find here. Will help to improve the instruction process, with my family. You are welcome in Wisconsin 24/7. I like your style Jeff. You are a very proud. My instinct tells me so. Thanks for sharing your gift with us. Don't change a thing. Mighty fine Jeff. Mighty fine.

[@JeffKavanagh]

+Tom Panetti thank-you for the very kind words.

[@MaloneNYDeerhunter1]

Great job on the review !!

[@GustavoUberoGrande]

It has been a while since jeff putting out a video of himself. I hope he's doing well health wise. But these videos with Lucy Cavanaugh is just as good and heart warming.

[@JeffKavanagh]

+Baba Baba Thanks for thinking of me. Yes I am doing well and I will be having a bunch more videos coming out in the future on shooting and hopefully we will be filming some of our hunts thsi fall as well. We will see how well I can film them. lol

[@Gamerdude535]

Awesome review and even more awesome shooting. And Lucy is cute and spunky! lol

[@user-fh6jj6od3d]

Jeff, greetings from Siberia! Great videos!

[@joedavino9225]

All I can say is I hat a great father you must be. It's very obvious with the nature of this fine young lady. Big ups to both of you

[@jmoney6652]

Great video Jeff..I’ve learned a lot from your channel

[@kluper1157]

Reminds me of Good old times spent with my Girls shooting! Thank you! Awesome keep it up!!!

[@michaelcolloton6971]

I took my new Bear Authority compound down to the local shop yesterday to get some help with the setup. Among the things we talked about over the course of it was strings. He said he's not impressed with any of the strings manufacturers put on their bows, compound or traditional. A year or so is about all you can expect from an OEM string. In the case of my two trad bows, it was weeks.

[@Hawkins305]

She is very accurate, very nice shooting.

[@KrzOstr]

haha, so awesome. I hope my children will share my archery passion when they grow up too.

[@addammoffett6348]

Hey Jeff just wanted to say thanks for all the information you give. I shoot a Bear Kodiak Glass Powered Magnum Recurve in 45# with a 52Amo and love it. Thanks again and if you could do a review of this bow for other viewer's.

[@SwedishOutdoor]

Nice shooting as always, both of you! Take care, Joachim

[@jakehenry2133]

Aanii, greetings,I was also thinking of buying a bear ausable ,nice to sée the review,looks like a great longbow,I shot a Ragim wolf custom 55lb.pull,for a long time,it not an expensive bow but light as a feather,good shooter with the right arrows,keep up the good vids,great info,peace out!!

[@peterxyz3541]

1, great chemistry between you two, always positive! Refreshing in this political climate! Thanks! 2, knowing what a Tribble is...!? Wow! 3, 50lb!? That's serious control! Very impressive. 4, have you consider "ruining" her by having her compete in Olympic style shooting. I'm not sure if instinctive and Olympic style will conflict or compliment (I use Olympic style with sights, rods, different limbs etc. I do own a 50lb wood recurve, no sights & stable rod, to change up my practice routine). Lastly, great vids, looking forward to see more.

[@SinyoSky]

Really great performance of both dad & daughter... :) really inspiring me...

[@victorblaylock8288]

Great video! Lucy can shoot very well and she has to be pretty strong shooting a 50 pound bow. I’m sold on the AuSable and will be buying one soon.

[@Afrobiomechatronic]

nice bow great shots thanks for sharing!

[@TheOnlyRemyD]

What a spitfire. Your daughter had me cracking up! Always great to have something you can share a love for

[@WilliamR-nt5ek]

Good Video... Both- Great Shooting! This AuSable.... it's on my short list...along with the '59 Kodiak... + the Hoyt Tiburon... and even a compound to shoot with only a rest... traditional style. Guess I'm a bow junky.... oh.... and the Bear Super Grizz. ... can't forget that one.

[@momehio9544]

She's got better skills than the exaggerated archers in movies do! Keep up the good work Jeff Kavanagh, this is quickly becoming one of my favorite youtube channels very quickly.

[@flysomethingdamitdotcom8788]

Candles in a barn with the straw back stop you've been using! Far out! Blessings from Australia! I'm very impressed with 50 lb shooting so well.

[@FlufzyPuppy]

Jeff, I had the Ausable for a long time, and it was a fantastic bow. The noise was one thing that bugged me though. I was able to make it dead silent by making my own yarn silencers for it. The trick is to have 2 sets. one at 10" the other at 14" - Instead of making a silencer that weighs 25-30 grains for one, I split them up to weigh around 12 grains a piece. After I did this the bow didn't make a sound even with a 8 gpp arrow. It also doesn't lose anymore performance by adding two heavy silencers. just thought I'd pass it along since you like a quiet bow for hunting :)

[@JeffKavanagh]

+PJ Sykes Thanks for that.

[@andiyuniarto]

great awesome beautifull archer....I love it

[@voolivreful]

vocês são muito bom nisso,parabens

[@vatjoe]

Beautiful...and the bow too ':)

[@WV591]

Wow. young lady can shoot that 50lb like it was nothing.

[@hugoakerlund5114]

WV591 shes not drawing to full draw so she is having a bit of trouble

[@codpieceofjustice4595]

I was surprised too.

[@YTRulesFromNM]

@@hugoakerlund5114 She's drawing to her mouth. I guess you draw to the ear or shoulder.

[@hugoakerlund5114]

@@YTRulesFromNM more like the nose, i draw to in between the ear and mouth

[@gussie88bunny]

​@@hugoakerlund5114 who gives a damn where the anchor point is, especially over a trifling inch which may equate to an extra 5fps .... 10fps .... who cares! She's consistently hitting what she's looking at. Job done. I don't see any "trouble" here.

[@aarontroyer5375]

Awesome video!!i had a Montana for a while great bow

[@alannickelson9565]

Lucy. Take pity on the poor ole fella. Birthday... ... or, put in for one for your birthday? (For him, unless you want the new one. :) ) Thanks for having us over. Great shooting as always!

[@ExiledExia]

I wish you made more reviews Jeff!

[@MarkMphonoman]

Nice video, thanks for posting. P.s. I have a Montana and Grizzly. Now I also have an Au Sable. It shoots really sweet.

[@twstdelf]

Dang, she's a good shot!

[@Dovahkiinxxx]

a girl that not only shoots a bow, but a longbow! and damn good at it! Dream Girl=Found!!!!!!!!!!

+James Rummel understandable :)

[@Dovahkiinxxx]

Miko Mido Pro's and Cons to dangerous women!

[@lukaskuzelovsky7087]

Well, in Scandinavian (Nordic) countries taking an arrow to the knee means getting married. It refers to the moment when a man is proposing and falls to one knee. She is awesome, who wouldn't like to get shot in the knee by her. :)

[@Dovahkiinxxx]

Lukáš Kuželovský .................IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!!!!! Those guards weren't actually shot in the knee, they got MARRIED!! I can't believe it was that simple!

[@stevenA44]

Nice video. I have no doubt Lucy can take a deer with any of her bows. Shooting moving targets like she was just really impressed me. I like Bear bows. I have a Black Bear II compound bow and I'm looking at getting a recurve and considering the Sonoma. Been looking at different brands and models too.

[@MerlinArchery]

Great video buddy!... And what a lovely string ;)

[@eddypastorello4526]

[@nrg4285]

I'm going to go on a limb here and guess that she has a Grizzly String xD

[@brandonblomme7797]

Merlin Jeff orders strings from you??

[@deadbyAnthrax]

Youre a hell of a shot, holy damn xD 2 candles 1 arrow (Y) impressive!

[@brianbelto8801]

Jeff I'm trying your technique on releasing with deep hook. Great video

[@scevol29]

What are good family!Best wishes.

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

They are a nice looking bow

[@davidmcquade5889]

Great stuff Jeff. Amazed Lucy can pull that 50lb and still be deadly accurate! I have a few mates who struggle pulling my 45lb cottonmouth, however, they aren't using proper form i suppose

[@edharrington8577]

It's a great bow. I had to sell mine because I prefer a little more mass to my bows, but it sure was fast!

[@postcardsfromheaven]

wonderful shooting !

[@airecomprimido7666]

Lucy and Dad great video!

[@adrianartillaga6129]

she has a very nice timing ☺

[@cassia_cries]

Lucy is my new archery idol!!

[@Traveler2112]

Nice vid Jeff!

Supper cute girl, and she shoots very well.

[@tjblackforest69]

Nice form! Respect

[@adrianartillaga6129]

i really really admire her the way she trow the arrow

[@TheJohnzitting]

Jeff, could you do a quick comparison video on all of your longbows? And perhaps a little recurve / longbow comparison??

[@padude131]

wow! awesome shooting!

[@georgecatalin138]

She's the most sweetest deadly Cupidon on earth ❤❤❤

[@maxncathy44]

Great shooting!

[@huntersampson9151]

Jeff Kavanagh your daughter is an amazing archer she reminds me of Byron Ferguson

[@mikenathaniel1521]

Wow! Pheomional! A+.

[@oudski]

Lucy has great form!!! She shoots an arrow well, too.

[@bobjoswick6075]

Thanks for the Ausable review. Where does the noise come from on the bow?

[@robertjohnson2926]

She's certainly a better shot than I am. Way to go!

[@twintwo1429]

Trouble mister,, great family affair. Both of you , good form and good luck. Thanks.

[@kletts42]

Lucy says those are her bows. Who actually bought them? Love the video. Always fun to watch!

[@summertowne2386]

Great shooting

[@tallthinwavy3]

WOW. Super impressive

[@MrFritzzz666]

Young lady, I wish gun owners were as aware of their muzzle as you are of the bow tip's. Awesome vid.

[@littyaikidobudo1730]

graet shoting and very helpfull

[@A10DoubleHelix]

Wow. You guys are really, really good shots! Do you competition shoot?

[@halfdanbartholemew1843]

What a beauty.

[@davidrivera2979]

Hi Jeff. Thanks for the Ausable review. You mentioned not liking the string that comes With this bow. What string do you suggest with a 35 lb draw weight? Dave in Puerto Rico

[@jubbaday]

Jeff you win at life! You are great bowman. Obviously you are pretty rich ;) You have beautiful redhead daughter. You have great connection with Your children. I love your videos, I want to be you. :)
