Black Hunter Takedown Recurve Bow, 60" Right Handed & Left Handed Archery Recurve Bows with Ergonomic Design for Adults Beginners to Advanced Outdoor Practice & Hunting (25-60 lbs)

I have now purchased 6 of these black hunter bows. Both in left and right, recurve and long bow style. I am 70 years old and have put meat in the freezer with them. I gave 2 to buddies and sold a couple to guys that just had to have one.. Sometimes the draw way may vary from the amo wieght on the bow. This really doesn't bother me since I only take shot less than 20 yards. I prefer the longbow style because they are quieter....

Fast shipping, arrived well protected with no damage. Assembled fast and easy. Did not come with nocking point, string silencers or stringer, I purchased those separately from a local shop. I have not shot instinctive for over 30 years (I have been shooting compound w/sights since my late teens). The fit and finish are good, and other limbs are available if I want to change. I purchased 45# limbs, but at my 31" draw, It pulls 55#. I ordered 40# limbs in the hope it puts me at 45-50 lb at full draw. The grip is comfortable, and it fits snug in the hand. The Black Hunter also very fast using carbon arrows, and quiet with the silencers installed. I had the bow shop change the factory string, and that helped with noise. Again, for the sub $150.00 price, it's a safe bet if you are just starting out or getting back into the traditional game. Good luck, aim small, miss small.

It was great and all, shooting well but the string started to break off whenever we tried to shoot it. Might need better string.

I was sent a right handed bow when I ordered a left handed bow. This actually wasnt the biggest issue as we also needed a right handed bow, but when attempting to build the bow, the top bolt that fastens the arm to the handle will nots screw down when it is in the slot.

Gave it a 5 star . Limbs are straight, no twist, nice feel In throat of the grip. Bought it for my grandson and he fractured his wrist so haven’t shot it yet. I’m not left handed so I couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn left handed. It’s set up and ready to go when he is. Came in mail quick.

Bought this for my son and he has used it a lot.

As a beginner to archery, I was pleased to find this fine bow at a price I could afford.

I’m giving this bow 3 stars overall, but honestly, 5 stars for the price and what you get. Unfortunately, ours arrived with a crack in the riser, which is the reason for the lower rating. I know we could have sent it back, but my husband super glued it and feels it will be fine. My husband is an experienced archer and ordered the left-handed 45# bow. He feels the draw weight is pretty close to the advertised 45 pounds. This is definitely not a Black Widow bow—but it’s also nowhere near a Black Widow price! For an inexpensive recurve, it actually shoots pretty well. It does need a little work to quiet it down, but that’s something that can be addressed with some tuning. Once everything is dialed in, this should make a great little hunting bow. It would also be a good backup bow for an experienced archer or a great starter bow for someone wanting to get into traditional archery without spending a fortune. Had the riser not arrived cracked, I would have rated it higher. For the money, there’s a lot to like here.
