[@joesharkey1021]

A work friend pointed me to a regional event in Pakistan on KZbin. Luckily, English commentary. The biggest entrace, by for, was for the "people's boW". It's a local wooden one-piece from several layers of wood. It seemed to be part glued and part held together with thick string. . The competitors were probably better than average - but were having fun.

[@lordcarnorjax8599]

Jake's riser as shipped to him was dangerous. That was his whole point. He just uploaded a KZbin Short video of it strung in his draw machine and guess what, it blew up at around 18" draw. TBow won't be stocked in American dealers because it's using "stolen" American IP, Hoyt has much better recourse to go after suppliers and stockists in their own country rather than web stores out of China. LEGO spent years going after a knock off company through the Chinese courts.

[@bootsandgear]

Hoyt no longer make this one and shops in the US are selling it. I think they are getting tougher on copies. Court in any country can be like the casino.

[@CatMeow-fn9ko]

Jakes video is rigged. He purposely broke it off camera just to prove his point, what a sore loser.

[@Chiefshadow4]

That was not his point. He bitched and moaned about about copying designs and knock offs.

[@marylandflyer5670]

Basically you’re taking a chance buying these that the bow will shoddy threads or bolts. That’s why to buy from dealer- they can check that for you and validate that all is fine. Otherwise, if you buy direct from China and get a bad one you’ll have to pack it and pay for return shipping. I would have no issue buying this bow if it was from dealer.

[@dannyhembree1312]

I have the H7 and H9 risers and I'm impressed with the quality and machine work of both risers. The limb bolt threaded bores are machined great and the threads are smooth. Thanks for your common sense approach to archery......you are needed.

[@thomaskurz5617]

I am torn about that riser. While having affordable options is a nice thing, promoting a company that makes their profit of another companies IP is not right. It is quite obvious they wanted to copy Hoyt as much as possible, from the riser to the packaging. I do not think any dealer who stacks Hoyt would risk annoying them by adding that copy to their inventory. Especially US dealers. On the other hand less scrupulous dealers might try to rip off customer by selling that riser as a Hoyt riser. Getting a hold of a Hoyt decal and bag might not be a real problem to fake someone who does not know that these copies exist. Not sure if Hoyt has an patents or design copyrights on that riser, but if thats the case, they can easily make their claim and US and EU customs would confiscate all copied risers they catch at the borders. I would be now very careful on internet sales especially of used Hoyt risers, as they might be such a copy. And about affordable, it is not so that there were not already enough options for the aspiring archer on a low budget. You named them all if your video.

[@chrisgaskell3706]

Yes he named them, they were Yellow, green, purple, red, orange, black and pink makes. 😂 These are the makes that people want. 😊

[@amrazing33]

Jake just released another video on this bow. You should check it out, Steven

[@jobagoat]

He surely has seen it by now, and is coming up with some new bs to make a video about. If he’s smart he’ll admit he made assumptions and jumped to conclusions about both Jake’s “privilege” and his credibility regarding equipment.

[@amrazing33]

@@jobagoat tbf, he's still quite privileged to have been born and raised in the US. Try living in a third world country like I am, for instance. It's either very hard or very expensive (relative to income per capita) to get proper coaching. It's really rare to find even a used riser that is in usable condition. So, yeah. I'm not supporting the cheap knock off manufacturer, but if you can't even comprehend Steven's point of view, get lost, man. Jake couldn't even come up with the correct M12 x 1.25 specification

@@amrazing33 I understand the consumer viewpoint, I can’t condone someone who makes a living off selling products from reputable brands choosing to carry counterfeit products. My gripes with this video lie within the attacks on personal character based on assumptions and little focus on the terrible tolerances that Jake showed in his video. Of course SH runs a business so I understand why he made this video, but I believe this video is a poor look on him as a business owner and person as a whole.

[@amrazing33]

@@jobagoat tbf to him, like I said earlier. Jake really sounded like he rushed things so he couldn't even present simple facts correctly. My point is they're both great KZbin archery personalities. We need them both. Neither is perfect. If you want to point fingers, the latest Jake's video also tried to throw some punches towards Steven. But if nobody can enforce Tbow's practice here, there's nothing we can do. Because Jake's points in the video seem to be nullified in Steven's. Because Steven's bow seemed to work perfectly fine. So, idk. Chill out, man

[@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale]

The bolts were the wrong size. If he contacted the manufacturer they would have fixed the problem.

[@THEFALCON58]

@@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale doesn't answer my question on the oval holes for the limb bolts. ?

[@peterxyz3541]

I can’t address the oval threaded hole; but, some workers (in America and around the world) will let products pass even if there was a manufacturing defect. Real case: my dumb f-k co-workers ran 4 pallets of products, 64 boxes per pallets. We can NOT release it due to the bad seal (plastic wrap, form and heat seal). The four pallets is in the freezer for +8m now, waiting to be unwrap and wrap and seal. Backstory: I told them to stop production and get that fix. I’m not in charge. Your question: every factory will hire dumb f-k and that include the notorious American “Monday morning car” when workers are on a hang over or “Friday afternoon car” when people are fixated on watching the weekend games.

[@maxschell8823]

LOL! Buy some oval limb bolts. Problem solved! Just kidding. Jake had the best solution. Throw the POS in the garbage.

[@CatMeow-fn9ko]

Jakes video is falsified, he's just super negative because he's sponsored by Hoyt. Typical American shit just because he's a hot shot Olympic medalist. Trash video and set up to destroy the bow.

[@stickboy6772]

Agree. In the USA the market is compound hunting bows. I have never seen target bows or Olympic recurves in a shop so i will be forced to build mine online and hope it works...which is why i have not spent the money yet...I hate guessing.

[@Alan_Edwards]

"It always comes back to the archer." No truer words. When I was younger I shot a lot of pool....I mean a lot. I became a very good pool player. Even though I had my own stick(s) for when I played on leagues and in tournaments, I still went to the local pubs a lot to shoot pool and never brought my own sticks with me...but a lot of guys did. Thing is, I and usually won just as much or more shooting using a house pool stick over the guys with their $500 pool queues. Used to piss them off too !!

No amount of money will make you a better archer. Bows like this have their place in any hand.

[@urbantrail7635]

Agree. Hoyt won't guarantee gold medal. 😊

[@maxschell8823]

Great video. Agree 100% on the entry level bow verses the top of the line bow. The occasional entry level, novice archer, should buy equipment that they can afford comfortably. I have met affluent people buy the best i.e. most expensive bow on the market but don't shoot very well. No, buying the best bow on the market does not guarantee great scores. Also I would strongly recommend customers buy bows, or any equipment, from a quality, reliable, knowledgeable dealer like yourself. I have seen people buy a bow from unreliable sources. If there is a problem with the bow e.g. limb bolts riser, limbs etc., that they bought from the unreliable source, then they may have problems getting a replacement, advice etc.

[@benjaminwatters2036]

The reality is that Hoyt will not loose a single sale due to the knockoff junxing products. The customer who walks into an archery shop with $1200AUD+ for a new hoyt riser will not turn around and buy this instead. Its like a BMW driver buying a no name chinese brand, not going to happen... This riser and the other junxing products compete against the low end WNS, kinetic, sanlida and offer choice to people getting into the sport. The riser Jake K received was certainly faulty and not safe to shoot. However, in all manufacturing processes there are some items that QA/QC misses. This is the exact reason shops like Archery Supplies should stock them so that when people come into the shop, a knowledgeable technician sets it up and can check the bow is safe before it goes to the customers hands. Should Junxings QA/QC department improve? Yes they should. But just because one item out if a batch has a defect is not a a reason to cancel that product entirely.

[@chrisgaskell3706]

Logical reasoning. Something many cannot seemingly comprehend.

[@elobiretv]

How do you know it's one item and not a whole lot of them? If it's happened to Jake then I bet other people have had it too and they might not be experienced enough to know it's a problem. Anyway the real reason not to buy this is because they rip off other peoples designs and nobody should be supporting that.

[@vangeodatan355]

@@elobiretv That's why you go back to wherever you bought it from if there's an issue. Another reason why buying from a shop is almost always a good idea. If you're experienced and knowledgeable enough to setup your own gear, you wouldn't even look in the general direction of these risers. Also, people shouldn't be setting up equipment by themselves in the first place. If they are that inexperienced that they wouldn't be able to identify this, then they are certainly not experienced enough to handle equipment setup. @benjaminwatters2036 said it himself correctly, people SHOULD come into the shop so a knowledgeable technician gets to check it before the customer even gets a chance to hold the damn thing. If they don't and something bad happens, it can either be due to human error or equipment failure or both - a risk everyone takes if they decide to DIY.

[@mick-d101]

Well done. If its not a safety issue then price point is personal and I shot with a father & son today which will be that exact issue. I do have one question though, with cast vs machined, is there a poundage point where the cast becomes unacceptable or is it just manufacturer dependant? thanks.

[@wanr5701]

To my best knowledge most manufacturers recommend #40 maximum as the peak poundage for cast riser. When stringwalking with barebow the limit is even lower; I read another netizen's comment that he saw a cast riser snapped when being used as barebow with stringwalking, and the poundage is only #36.

[@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale]

Back in the old days all bows were cast. Machined risers break too. When I googled broken recurves the two Hoyts came up in fact I think the only target recurves. With cast they can be fine however if they break it will just snap. With machined you will see cracks first. Risers tend to be very good. Recurve risers I think I have only seen the Machined ones go and they were older Hoyt Machined risers. On compounds risers are very solid - back years ago the old Cast Martin riser we had 2 break. Most bows are tested for years of shooting.

thanks.@@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale

[@vicheksink5100]

Great video Steve. I'm not shooting this, my bow is gillo with uukha but i also have hoyt one which arrived with bad paintwork...When I've complained to my supplier, they told me taht, i can't argue with hoyt standards 😅

[@frankambruso70]

Ive been reading some of these comments and find some over the top from elite recurve bow competitors. Others from archers that dont seem to understand manufacturing, materials, marketing and quality control. The bow in question fills a price point and economic minded beginner archery enthusiast needs. The manufacturing methods are current in the lower cost equipment for beginners and safe in lower (30 lb max?) Depending on metal/process (cast/injection molded) used. The secondary mfg. Proces of machining is susceptible to negative quality control pass thru's with low tech labor processing. The riser is not a stolen/knock off, replica, fake design. It is a similar/close design to a discontinued/obsolete/out of production Hoyt riser. It is nowhere close to the hoyt riser in cost, quality, or performance (if you can even tell) of the hoyt product. It is an entry level product that performs well, maybe better then similar price point niche level products. I think Steve demonstrates that a careful examination by the archer with basic mechanical aptitude, and a well informed tutorial by the highly competitive archer, salesperson, and mentor is really the maketing you can put a value on in your bow selection at your local shop. Good job Steve.

[@peterxyz3541]

[@BBDragon66]

This is the reason you go to an archery shop to buy archery gear, especially if you are a novice because you need the expertise you will find there so you don't hurt yourself. Even just little things like learning to not slap your arm with the string. Problem is some people don't want to spend the "extra money" to buy it in a shop and get some instruction. Most non-archers don't even know that dry firing your bow is not a good idea.

I bought a bow on a whim - only £200, so can't really go wrong... Apart from the "Formula" bit. It looks like a Hoyt Formula X from maybe 8 or 10 years ago, although the Hoyt is anodised. Ebay has one on sale: Eliza Archery on Oz. And it wouldn't be the first time Hoyt has been to China - weren't the Horizon (and Excell?) outsourced? Do you think the limbs have any carbon in them? Perhaps it's just part of the name. And the limbs I got weren't even varnished! A quick discount and aa spray of paint solved that. Near the Wend you compare a £200 complete bow to risers! The WNS Acheive riser is £70, similar price. Vellator is £375, Unison £250?, WNS Motive £250.

Hopefully one day this May put pressure on manufacturers like Hoyt to bring down their prices.

Living in America I'm sad to say if Hoyt, or whoever, is going to make an entry level bow the manufacturing will probably be out sourced to China, India etc. In fact I would not be surprised if the American name brands don't rely on out source components from China etc. Yes, its a global market.

Competition and innovation from China is a good thing for the consumer. Straight up stealing other peoples designs and profiting from it is illegal in 99% of the world for a reason. Can't afford a Hoyt? Buy a Core, Cartel, WNS, Kinetic etc. There are plenty of bows in the price bracket from companies who designed them themselves, and will stand behind the product. There is a reason you can't buy these from reputable retailers. Hoyt spent a shit ton of money on design and R&D on these bows, as well, they are made in the USA by someone earning a livable wage. The aren't charging $600 more because they are gouging, they have to recoup those costs. Is there a bit of a brand tax on them, sure. Does that make it right to rip them off. Hell no. I'm not going to vilify anyone who buys these, but I would question the morals of any archery shop that would carry these counterfeits. Business owners should recognize that stealing and profiting from someone else's work is wrong.

[@garyhiggins6718]

I think the naming of things is symptomatic of primitive Anglo Saxon Stupldity! I said the same thing the other day to Genevieve, my wheelchair?😊😊😊😅😅😅😅😊😅😊😊

[@johnnybravo3575]

Archery is a very technical sport: it is all about precision and consistency. You need to have precise and consistent equipment, especially as a beginner, to make progress in archery. The equipment has to be precise so the limbs and riser align properly, stay aligned and to shoot straight. Your equipment has to be consistent, to shoot the same way everytime you shoot the same way. Otherwise you will end up a frustrated person who will quit archery soon because you cannot improve your shooting form, your consistency, with a riser/limbs that shoot differently every time you shoot them. You will never improve much because you simply do no have true feedback from your equipment and the equipment reflects its quality instead of reflecting your quality. I would stay away from those limbs even if they were given to me for free: they are not consistent. Because the manufacturer did not even seal them properly, they will shot differently depending on the weather because the humidity and temperature will affect the wood in the limbs. The limbs will also be affected by the storage conditions and will shoot differently in time and ultimately be ruined if kept in a humid environment. I would stay away from that riser for the same reason: beyond the safety reasons highlighted by Jake Kaminski, it is an imprecise riser so you won't have aligned limbs and even if you manage that temporarily, it will lose its alignment quickly after that. As Kaminski highlighted, there are reputable manufacturers/vendors there that provide reliable gear (some which is actually cheaper that these Chinese clones). Don't think you are saving your money using these clones, you may end up wasting the money because you might quit archery shortly after you started because your gear does not give you true feedback. I myself have been on this path as a beginner: my cheap beginner limb aligned well but only had the tip slightly out of alignment which pushed my arrow randomly sideway which frustrated me to no end as I thought it was my form. I was lucky to meet someone knowledgeable who pointed out to me that, despite the limb being aligned with the riser, the tip of the limb was slightly out of alignment, something that I could not see with the naked eye. To conclude, there are differences in gear more that just longevity: their precision and consistency are different. "Beautiful", "lovely", "amazing" are not technical qualities, they are just part of the salesman's arsenal to cover the absence of the technical stuff.

[@einsteind]

[@GrogMode]

I thought this was about archery not gymnastics; the amount of work being put into defending a cheaper knockoff - which clearly is reliant on stealing another company’s IP - I’m amazed. Your attitude in responding to this micro-drama is clearly rooted in your sweating over losing sales for a knockoff brand. You know it’s a knockoff, and you admit as much in your first video. Mocking Kaminski (when he provided thorough evidence that the manufacturing tolerances were garbage) is just poor form. Come on man, you literally saw the bow he got blow up. Then you take the piss and make fun of him for stringing up the bow with a motorcycle helmet on. Considering the bow exploded, I’d say he took the right precautions. Playing smug isn’t a good look on you.

Now Steve has to explain to customers. You should see some of the counterfeit knives they sell. Just my opinion

This riser is a counterfeit. It’s a rip-off of the Hoyt X/Xi. No confusion whatsoever.

[@floriansu1566]

Here in Germany on national level athletes are shooting branded high end gear. Probably the most use Hoyt follow by Win&Win, MK and Fivics. I’m shooting the Hoty Xceed. A friend got one of the nock offs and comparing both I can say that the China version is by far less quality. You showed the picture of the broken limb so it’s easy to see that the limbs in this video are also cloned in design. The lower price is because of lower quality compared to the original. What I question the most is, that it is a one on one fake product. Imagine someone would use your shop logo and probably an almost identical name to sell archery gear. Probably also inking your videos to his own shop. That’s why I personally have moral issues with those Chinese products.

I cannot condone trashing the company for this single quality control escape, Steve shows us his bow riser is functional and not "dangerous" but represents very good value if you have the ability to review/evaluate/assess a corrective action or pathway to contacting/returning a product to a manufacturer. Bows are mechanical, you may not be a mechanic but you should rely on a mentor or informed/qualified sale/repair person at your local shop or club for advice.
