PAWN SHOP BOW BUILD (Archery On A Budget)

[@kveritas1]

You forgot to mention that particular bow is DL specific. Sure it’s $200, but only if the DL fits. If that new archer buys this, and then finds out it doesn’t fit them, it’ll cost them another $150+ to get the right cam and have it installed. That puts them into the price point of a new Bear or Diamond that is fully adjustable, and has a warranty.

[@andrewbratcher4132]

I had the same bow growing up. I hunted with it from when I was 15 to 17esh (I’m 19), I loved it and shot every thing from squirrels to bucks

[@hunterpardue3215]

Please shoot a doe with it this season. That would be sweet on video

[@voiceforthevoicelesstruth5480]

Now you Need some Xx75 aluminums and helical feathered vanes!!maybe even some thunderhead broadheads!

[@Irockthedrums08]

I second that motion!

[@callmecamo2]

Just watch an old hunting dvd, lol.

[@jimlahey3919]

What would be so sweet about that? It’s a perfectly capable bow that was the best bow on the market at one time. It’s not like it’s an old 1980’s cam-less bow that shoots 220 FPS. This bow shoots just as good as a lot of the bows on the market today and thousands of hunters still use this same bow to kill deer every year.

[@hunterpardue3215]

@@jimlahey3919 It would be awesome to see someone like Chris who can go get whatever bow he wants and whatever equipment he wants, to use something that is very obtainable for the average person. 99% of hunting content that is out there being produced now adays is people shooting brand new off the line bows. So it would be nice to see new content being produced with middle of the road stuff. Some folks might want to see the equipment that they can afford be used to harvest deer because thats what they do.

[@kennethhetrick5458]

you should do an accuracy test between a whisker biscuit and a drop away rest do about 50 shots of each with the exact same bow same setup just different rest

[@Hungrybird474]

My first set up was a $200 Hoyt over 10 years ago . Worked just fine and I liked shooting it so much I bought two more over the years . The newer ones are like lasers and quiet and the difference is huge . So if a person gets good with an old bow going to a newer one is like a dream 👍👍

[@TheEverLovingOutdoors]

I just got a BowTech Admiral with a react 5 pro. Like new $425 after shipped. I let it down lubed it up,cleaned it up, paper tuned it and it's way nicer then any budget line I've ever owned. Those deer better watch out this year!

[@dristonlouis]

My dad had that Mathews bow for a long time and killed so many bull elk. It definitely goes to show it’s the shooter and not the bow. Of course technology has helped with many things, but it also goes to show that it doesn’t have to be expensive to get into archery in general today. Awesome video Chris.🤝🏽🐝

[@jjwilliamn4407]

[@joewilson6374]

I picked up a low mileage Mathews Conquest 4 last year for $275, and it shoots great. Not a speed bow ,but a very accurate bow that is a joy to shoot.

[@coreycallahan4609]

I have a 2008 Ross Cardiac that I purchased new and it is a tack driver still to this day. As are the two that I got for my sons back then. They still shoot them. Great bows for that period in time.

[@ssgtdan480]

I understand that this is a older video. My current bow is a Hoyt Rambo from 1986. Got it at a yard sale some 20 years ago as a 12 year old. Never really did anything with it until this year. With it, I am able to hole a 8 shot group in a paper plate at 75 yards. I know it’s now amazing but I’ve only been doing this since January of this year (2023). So yes old school bow still work with old school sights, rests and peeps.

[@bryanslittlegarage5724]

I believe that bow came out around 2000 and that was the first Mathews bow I ever bought and loved it. I shot it for 14 years before I sold it and now I wished I hadn’t.

[@lockgessner]

Just got my first bow in 15years from a pawn shop, was looking at nos v3’s but couldnt stomach a 1500$ rig having not shot in that long. Ended up with a bowtech convergence with everything to hunt and target shot including a halfdozen 300 spine fmj, broadheads, lumknocks etc for 300$. Couldn't be happier!

[@ethanamldon5657]

I just got back into archery after a 15 yr break. I picked up a 2010 HOYT for $200 and it is a a great bow so far

[@jaysonsulser6099]

I want to see a full shoot off with Chris and Duds with bows from the late 90's early 2000's!!

[@richardsereda1433]

I bought a 2013 elite archery pulse with a sight, rest, and stabilizer for $140 it had a decent iq bowsight with the retnalock and a nice drop away rest. This bow was what got me into archery and hunting

[@bradeden1132]

I’m still shooting a Mathews Outback I bought new 16 or so years ago. I’m just cheap or stubborn or both. It keeps shooting and it keeps killing deer and wild turkeys. Maybe Ill finally upgrade this year….but I doubt it. Great video as usual, although I feel really old…even retro right now.

[@geebee3d]

If anyone who reads this is thinking about getting into archery…I would advise that right out of the gate you spend the money on the best sight, rest, stabilizer, and release you can afford. Those things can easily transfer from bow to bow, and the good ones last forever. I am shooting an old Toxonics Target sight from 2002. It does everything modern sights do (hold a scope and move up and down consistently) and has been on 6 bows that I’ve owned over the years. Same with my stabilizer setup and arrow rest. Buy quality on the accessories, and move them from bow to bow as you progress through the sport. Either that or get you a decent barebow recurve rig and learn to stringwalk. But a quality modern barebow rig will set you back around $750 before arrows. You can get them for less by going with an Olympic Recurve riser, and just shooting it barebow, but you are compromising a bit doing that way. No matter what, have fun flinging arrows.

[@mitchellwilliams4337]

Q2 was 01 or 02, they were great bows in their day and though not as adjustable its still probably better quality than most budget friendly bows of present time.

[@danc6402]

I bought an '08 Mathews DXT 6 years ago for $250 on Craigslist. It came with a really nice drop away rest, trophy ridge sight, case, stabilizer, arrows and broadheads. For a xouple years I shot it like it was. Killed a mule deer doe both years. Then I bought a new cam to take it from a 29" draw to 30", bought a new string, single pin sight, built some arrows and tuned it. 6 years later, with some tweaking, my bow shoots 85 yards with the single pin. With a 3 pin slider I could easily get out to 95. It's maxed out at 73 lb. I kill a mule deer almost every year. I shoot pretty competitively with the big boys in my area at the range. I'm shooting in my first 3D tournament in 2 weeks. I have high hopes. After this season I'm going to mess with the string and cables to increase draw weight and buy a 3 pin slider. Eventually I'll upgrade to the new mathews platform. Hopefully they come out with an 80 lb option soon.

[@joshkeller84]

The first time I shot a Q2, i was amazed by how I felt nothing compared to the dual cam/upright limb bows of the days. That was back in 2001 - 2002. Still have an sq2 that I shoot occasionally, and its amazing how much it vibrates compared to the stuff today, yet felt so dead in hand back then.

[@TruBonehead]

I still shoot an SQ2. I added a dead end string stop to it. Still a phenomenal bow. Many times I’ve been able to get a second shot off at deer it’s so quiet.

[@michaelgregory7457]

I’m curious to see how I like the Q2 as I just inherited my grandfathers Q2 that he took his trophy’s with and I’m already itching to constantly shoot after just one day shooting for the first time. Need a different cam but I can already tell I archery haha

[@dankosek2355]

So Chris, I still shoot a Matthews FX at 62lbs and still love it.... It shoots about 280fps with 400gr arrows. The Q2 would have been an upgrade for me... lol. I had new cables and string put on last year and I good for another 5-10 years... I used to live in MT and purchased it there back in 2002 or 2003. We used to practice at 65 yds in MT, but I live in PA now, so long shots are much more rare now a days. Glad you are showing people how to get started on a budget.

[@stephenvargas6134]

That looks like an old Mathew’s Swichback I had. One of the best bows I’ve ever had. Killed a lot of deer with that bow.

[@texasforever3.025]

My last three bows came from pawn shops. Ritual 35, vxr and RX3. Paid 1000 combined over the years. Also most came w top end sights and drop always

[@southdakotasaved126]

What a great video, I agree 100%, an old flagship bow is better than a new entry level bow. I have a pair of 2013 Stinger 3G’s that I love, but I picked up a 2008 Mathews Conquest 3 cheap to play with and it shoots and feels like a Ferrari to me! 🤣 I love the simplicity of the solo cams and have fun shooting all 3 now, I shot custom recurves only, for 25 years until I hurt my shoulder so any semi modern compound feels like I’m on the cutting edge of archery technology! I love your channel, you are so good for archery and young shooters, such a selfless archer and role model! I just watched you kick butt at the Lancaster steel Elk shoot, I order from those guys a lot, also the guys at their pro shop are awesome to talk to but I was pulling for you, that was to good! 😎

[@peterweikel7123]

I have used a lot of pawn shop gear for both archery and rifle hunting. For years that's all I could afford. Now I buy good gear but I keep it for a long time. I don't do the new bow every year think. I did by a V3 recently as a replacement for my DXT from 2008 (yes I still shoot the dxt, and it still looks and shoots like the day I bought it). Taken care of they last a very long time

[@cklly2013]

I picked up a Reflex Timberwolf from the local archery shop last year to extend my hunting season. Nothing wrong with the old stuff as long as it was taken care of!

[@TheWVgoodguy22]

I have used a 2006 PSE Fire Flite 33 for 15 seasons and mostly just upgraded some of the components especially the sight, got a new whisker biscuit and then a custom bow string. Upgrades over time is a great way to go

[@JayMac]

Upgrade to a drop away rest instead for a whisker biscuit.. You wont regret it

[@TruBonehead]

That was my first bow. Sold it and bought the SQ2 Chris is shooting in this video. So much more smooth than my PSE was.

[@marshallwiese5788]

My dad gave me his old Jennings XLR that’s like 30 plus years old. Been shooting ever since and loving it! Definitely gonna upgrade!

[@nathangroseclose2071]

The Q2 was my first mathews way back in the day it was the start of a long mathews history for me. I remember how pumped up I was about it! It was top of the line back then! Crazy how far they've came.

[@taylerjensen7272]

No way, I bought a q2 used like 5 years ago as my first bow.. fantastic rig, I shot the new bows every year and never thought I needed one until the traverse came out

[@finq0997]

the PSE Supra Max with ME Cams is the best low budget bow for beginners IMO. It's regularly available on archery Talk for 250$, it has an adjustable cam from 25.5-30.5", it's fairly quick and still holds up today. Make sure to get the Max with the upgraded riser though, it is much sharper looking. It's the one with the flex cable guard.

[@loganzimmerman551]

My best indoor NFAA score is with a Mathews Signature (1996). My grandpa found it for $50 at a 2nd hand store. It has a Walmart bargain- bin drop away rest, and eBay-purchased sight and hunting bars. The most expensive thing on the bow is the strings.

[@jacobhollis8647]

This is awesome! I tell people all the time that talk about getting into archery to buy a cheap used bow to get started. Pretty much any bow out there will shoot and kill a deer if that’s what you are going for. I just traded my 07 Mathews Drenalin (killed great mule deer last year) for a V3X and I can’t wait to smoke some deer this fall! Keep up the great content.

[@jasondauzat1619]

Pawn shops are the best way to find good deals, most shops have no idea of the value, gave little to nothing for them, and nothing really can be wrong with the bow, with exception of stings and cracks in limbs I bought an Elite Answer loaded out with a react sight, qad rest, and Cbe stabilizer bars, and brand new winners choice strings.

[@nathanlemanczyk1551]

I have a matthews q2 and still use it to this day. Works great

[@jonvia]

This is just like the compound bow I got. 200 buckaroos and shoots great for a budget beginner bow once I tuned it up to my own specs.

I still have got my first US made compound bow from my collage years. That is a 2005 PSE Deer Hunter. Probably the most forgotten and the lowest quality bow that PSE ever produced. I still have fun with that. However I have the absolute high end laminated Hungarian bows the Fekete Bég. With the 50# draw weight one I already have several hits on a 100 square foot target area designated with a flag in the middle of it out to 196 yards and I were hit a man size target 262 yards. The 70#-one is on the way. I hope my master finish it and give it to me on the Kurultaj in August. (Take it like a Native American pow wow but 16 countries participate so this ones is a wee bigger). The long range archery I mentioned is a historical competition style based on military target practice of the Hun, Mongolian ect. army in the past. For compound bows I don't think I will ever go any higher. For Hungarian bows I am already on the high end. I can imagine these bows feels for you like cheap fiberglass Hungarian/Turkish/Mongol bows feels for me. I never had a chance to try a flagship compound bow. Or just see one from closer to be honest. So everything you do is pretty interesting for me.

[@OpiatesAndTits]

Shoot thumb release extra arrows in bow hand?

@@OpiatesAndTits I shoot most time arrow on left and tree finger under for long range between 196 and 262 yards. This military style long range archery is my main thing to do. The target is an enemy flag and whoever land the arrows closer to the flagpole is the winner.

Recently got back into bow hunting. Ended up picking up a bowtech carbon zion. Stan onnex thumb release, HHA single pin. Bow came with a apex 5 arrow quiver, trueglo multipin which i knew off the bat i wouldn’t like too much shit in the sight and a qad ultrarest. This kit was put together by my local bow shop. Went with the easton sonic 6.0 high velocity arrow. Just need to get out and shoot it more then pick up different heads for hunting.

[@papaschuette]

I bought a 2007 Diamond Triumph a couple years ago. Came with a Plano hard case, and a dozen Gold Tip Hunter XT 340 arrows. All for $175. Added a new string and cable, a new peep, and a nose button. And with a minor draw length adjustment, I had 3 inch groups at 35 yards after 20 or so shots. Went in to find an X box for my Grandson and walked out with the bow too. I couldn't pass it up.

[@aoe76]

I have this bow 😄. But have diasembled it by now. Shooting another lower level bow an Obsession hb33, with an Axcel accu touch sight. Love it. Accurate enough out 50 meters. In Denmark it is illegal to shoot animals father than 25 meters. And when You get your license we are learned that 20 meters should be our maximum.

Oh yeah. The old Mathew's solocam. I remember back in the day, that was their thing. It's hard to imagine how far bow technology has come. I do have an old Hoyt that's not much newer than this old Matthew's. It's a 2006 Trycon XL. Haven't bothered upgrading, as I prefer my Ravin crossbow. In my state, we can hunt through the whole deer season with a crossbow, just the same as any vertical bow.

I just saw one of these at my local scheels all setup for 100. If you can find one in your draw length these older bows can be had for cheap and they’ll still kill a deer just fine. For anyone looking for a first bow just make sure you know your draw length and what weight limbs you can handle. Otherwise look for bows with a lot of adjustability in draw length and weight like most Mission bows.
