We took HER bow shopping...

All right guys we got to make a decision here. I think money should be set aside because you're not going to be buying a bow for quite a while and you're serious about this. I mean even before knowing price I already was leaning to the... We have some friends that we met at Total Archery Challenge in Utah last year. Cool little power couple and they were telling me they were gonna buy a new bow in 2024 and I was like hey if you're gonna do that man. Fly up to Spokane. I'll make sure that MFJJ sets it up everything gets it dialed so she is bow shopping today. Whatever bow she wants she's getting a new bow that's cool. MFJJ is gonna build it and bring you guys along. Is it September yet? Hey guys we love Elk Hunting. It's so hard. Most miles ever. Definitely a duck digi day. Separations in the preparation. This is a channel dedicated to inspiring you to be the best version or aspire to be the best version the best hunter the best dad the best firefighter captain just the best dude that you can be. Can you give us a tour of behind the scenes of Spokane Valley Archery? So right there is where the orders get printed and old Douglas prints them every morning. That man makes this place hum without him it would die. 300 to 400 orders on a Monday and rarely find yes yeah and rarely find that's working one in the building yeah and here's number two. We'll go through and sort everything here between upstairs and downstairs and like items and unlike items. This is Alex he's one of the two guys that fills orders. Hey they're here so let's go say hi. How's it going man? Good how are you? I'm Jeff. Nice to meet you. What's your name man? Gents. Gents yeah. Audrey. Audrey nice to meet you. Welcome. Welcome here yeah you guys this is Josh Jones. We met you yeah. Nice to see you guys. We're excited. So you guys hopped on a plane rented a car here you are and you brought the sunshine. Get her a bow. I gotta get a bow. You're getting a bow? Dialed in. Okay lift. Did you have like a preconceived what you want or you just opened it? No whatever. Wherever the wind blows you? Yeah. Okay you're 66 so that's gonna be 26 inches and a little bit long of it so that's awesome because it won't really limit you for anything. That's a yeah that's a big swing bow we can just adjust that to her draw length and this is on 26. My eyes are starting to get worse I have to move it farther away. All right this is already set at 26. I didn't ask are you right eye dominant? Yeah. Okay cool so let me back this down a bit to where it's going to be super easy put a release on you have you draw it back we'll stick an arrow in it to be safe down there okay and then just keep cranking it up until you're like okay that feels like a lot. Now we're not actually going to fire it we're just going to draw it back and set it down so all I need you to do here is come up to here with the release okay put it on the loop close it put your fingers behind the trigger not behind that's in front there you go okay so now as long as you don't put your finger in front of that it won't go off no matter what you do so just keep it like that for now and I don't suggest gripping the release really hard because it's attached to your wrist just let your wrist do the pulling. We want to keep our elbow above your shoulder as we draw it back and try to keep it relatively pointed on the target and then just pull it back and this elbow is it straight is it a little bit it can be it can be straight you don't have to bend it and I'm not going to whack my arm we're not firing it so it will be hard to whack your arm when we get to the point that you're firing it we can work on that okay so go ahead and give it a pull like I said easy right yeah okay go ahead and set it down okay my first time still easy yeah still easy okay so and it like you said the technique is elbow keep your elbow above your shoulder okay if you're keeping your elbow above your shoulder you won't have joint issues over time okay so that looked like it got harder yeah okay so that's probably a reasonable starting point or at least an idea of where we want to start test firing things okay so now we'll go put a scale on this and see how heavy it is and then we know what we're looking for 20 pounds gosh I don't know that felt like 40 no 50 we'll say 50 it's 46 oh close how long were you in the band metallica never never but I do love me miss the metallica in fact we had to do poetry in middle school they made you recite a poem and I recited enter sandman because it was a poem and I got an a oh look at this color shoot I'm like that's the eva that that is that is actually the best-selling color but that's the eva gen three I see some like visual similarities too and I yeah you kind of look like oh really yeah right come on hey hold on okay comment down below if you think she looks like he was shocking this is important don't ever pull your bow back with your finger in front of the trigger ever your hand naturally clenches as you try to pull yeah if your fingers in front of the trigger it's bringing your finger towards the trigger you're going to punch yourself in the face and no one wants to see that yeah I mean somebody somewhere it's crude cruel and mean we'll probably laugh at it but outside of that nobody wants to see it go ahead and put your finger on the trigger and squeeze it off okay how'd that weight feel good okay because what you were trying before is a very easy drawing bow these are all more aggressive so they may they're just gonna feel like it's a little tighter on my draw than it's not it's just you're carrying it for a longer period of time but like I said not shooting a bow and then once you start shooting every day or every other day it's amazing how fast you'll gain weight and that's one of the that's one of the great advantages to like a Matthews for example is they have switch weight modules so like if you walk out of here with a 55 pound module on your bow and you call me in a month and go hey I'm maxed out I can send you a 65 pound module and you can keep working your way through that one and if you get all the way through that one you still want to keep going it's just a module as opposed to 300 400 dollars on a set of limbs and labor to install them so it's a very simple option that they have that nobody else does I believe it's a patent thing that nobody else can make it so that's the only one that does that I feel like the draw is fine on all of them yeah be honest yeah we'll work on an anchor point once we get you settled into which one you like because we'll put a peep in it and a side and it'll be a lot easier to get the feelings against your face of how it should feel and not to squeeze the front almost dry fired that dry firing was when there's not an arrow in it oh really okay you're fine yeah it's like it feels like it wants to like when you get when you get something that's a little snappier at your size you'll feel that makes me a little nervous because what if I was like lined up on an animal and I'm like ah I don't want to do that love this this is a target Dan is a target guy now so you could absolutely love that okay there you go I tried to aim lower so I didn't that's good yeah all right so I don't know that one feels pretty good we've gone through four which one did you like the least this is a kill okay it's gone oh it's gone oh I know why did you have the outfit in there Josh because I didn't I didn't have the right poundage to be able to get it to where she could pull it back so sorry we ran out of 60 pound peaks yeah you're fine I don't know I mean that feels good the only difference is this feels just a tiny heavier love the feel of this but it just still doesn't feel quite as stable as that other one I don't know you're good I'm trying not to squeeze okay get rid of one because you want to get rid of this is out all right yeah that's out okay so it's down to these two yeah so we keep doing this as long as you want to one more because we got to even it out you know like I got to go back to this one do one more this one all right guys we got to make a decision here again you guys on YouTube will say that I have a bias towards Matthews I don't know you got it narrowed down it's BSE and the lift yeah okay there is a price point difference but I think money should be set aside because you're not going to be buying a boat for quite a while and you're serious about this yeah so you guys what are you thinking your team I mean even before knowing price I already was leaning to the lift you know I just feel like the stability of it it just didn't really match the other one you know like it the other one was just my aim seemed pretty accurate with both but it was it was more the stability that sold me I feel like I don't know what do you think though no I could see when you're shooting you're more stable and if you think about the Matthews ability to streamline it integrating a lot of the accessories yeah I know I like the simplicity of that so yeah I don't know I think I'm going lift I know I think lift that is no bias you guys know what you want to say go ahead all right well the fun part is we want to build this boat we want to get it tuned we want to actually get you a tape and then we want to actually get you to a 3d tournament tomorrow so like that's pretty a big shoot pretty aggressive but that's our style uh no expectations Josh gonna go run you through accessories and then we'll go build look in that lens and you tell those MFers that I didn't tell you to buy a Matthews swear on my life he did not tell me to buy a Matthews vertical pin sight looks like one pin but it's got multiple choices okay right that so yeah sounds like what I'd like okay so that's either going to be a two or a three and in a two I would really strongly encourage you to do the because it has they're they're small that's a bridge lock adaptable dovetail so it'll go right and slide right in and then it won't be in the way of any quiver system we use so we'll go with that well I guess I need a case to fly it home yeah we got you covered there this is a podium narrow stabilizer they come in parent podium archer like as long as you get on the podium who cares wow don't have to always win first place archery yeah no they uh they're in six inch eight inch 10 inch 12 inch 15 inch and if you want something custom send a message to the website we can build you something custom so first thing we gotta do is change your draw length and mod and weight and all that stuff so I got the right one here you want to hold that one yeah thank you so if you ever end up wanting to increase your poundage beyond what this is you're going to get a set of these they'll come in two and you just take four screws out of them put the other ones in screw it back in you're good all right we are using bridge locks so we're going to use this screw that they you've attached here pull it apart and put it back together and readjust this is what I've been looking for for the last five minutes and it was sitting right there the whole time what an idiot Josh what do you want edited while I'm while you're working die over here all right somewhere on there should be fine bring your finger around surprise a paper tuner is a great tool to teach people how to hold a bow because it shows it immediately and there's a direct response when you do it too right just found out Audrey and I have a lot in common we both are bikini models and we compete in the bikini section of bodybuilding competitions and we're both going to nationals although I'm a one piece she's a two-piece you ready I'm ready okay you ready Dan yeah okay take your time and make a good shot 244 at launch 234 at 20 and it says 223 at 50 all right guys so Audrey is going to do an actual 3D shoot tomorrow here in Spokane we'll actually go to Idaho so she just got her bow today she just got her sight it's tuned and now we're going to kind of teach her a little bit about 3D and take her through the course a little bit we're going to hand pick a few shots bring it along all right Audrey first shot is this uh squatch all right look at her she's scored she's got an eight on her first one ever heck yeah outstanding work his face is really spooky nice all right let's uh we'll let her pick the next target I'm so stoked for TAC now get your anchor now bend at the waist and use your core to elevate oh yeah go nice I want a close-up on that release though I see the skin bunching up that's not bad that's a good break that's a good break I like it see these guys are awesome man uh I'm ready for some 10s the elusive 11 see how this thing's tilted I wish somebody would come up here and put these up like how they should be good shot buddy so way out there nice shot sheesh put your pin on here up just literally actually you want to be a little higher than that arrow by about an inch a little low that's awesome a little low all right there you go you're by me we can move that peep up if you want was I low on all of those I blame Josh Jones for anything and everything I would tell people this when I would guide them I know it's a little bizarre but the first time you do something it's not gonna be perfect if only you knew if only you knew my personality you see where my arrow is aim a little bit higher than my arrow just a little bit but straight straight line so pull back normal like we're on flat ground get your anchor now bend at the waist check your bubble good so we're still a little low we're gonna add a little bit all right Jens show us what's up archery doesn't have to be perfect but it has to be repeatable yeah they're slowly oh yeah 55 I'm calling it she's gonna nail this thing oh Jens is a shooter straight up like he can shoot but he probably doesn't shoot these angles as much as I think I think your draw length might be too long okay so we're gonna go on this side Jeff let's film him okay dude shoot like you're gonna shoot flat and then bend at the waist because I do feel like you just moved your arm up a little bit all right so more midline involved and he's exercise science guy so he'll get this get geeky do you see this angle here see how that hips push forward there you go now push now bend at the waist and go up midline mid abs abs as I think your draw length's too long but we'll talk about that after the shot that's good that's good I would say try shooting 28 versus 28 and a half yeah I think a little bit shorter will put you more into a position to where you can actually maximize your midline because because you're a little long you kind of have to kick that hip out on this uphill shot so um like I shoot a 27 inch draw uh with a Hoyt but with a Matthews I'm 26 and a half judge free judge this is like planet fitness judge judgment free zone yeah that's the dude himself that's an 11 we don't have to say it's a five hey points just points it's good points your point yep look at my girl here just just slapping a 10 baby yes nice job and thank you let's go your wife's gonna be good dude your wife is good dude be good all right me what is like what's happening no no me just hanging around he's so funny it's beetle juice Jeff what are you doing just hanging around I love it that'll work you guys are dialed did you hear that Audrey just getting all competitive there like good nice shot I'm so happy for you it's like when you're rooting for someone in a crossfit open workout and then they beat you score and you're like oh good job I'm so happy for you dot I'm just a little low right of you guys yeah dude yep there you go my mask watering I'm like her a little cop lift we're adding a six yard shoreside tape there such a happy guy yeah shout out to Jeff while we're just hanging out he's got to run back grab the long lens no grab the backpack with all the gear grab this and catch up to us to see us pull there like y'all don't know gents are you trying to one-up me dog oh so here's our 10 ring good shot buddy is that a Chris B arrow just outside that's the fire barely is that what you shoot I don't know Chris B what arrow do you shoot I don't know gotta be close all right great shot great shot nice nice I do want to shorten your jaw like a half inch guys we just another this might be the longest we've spent at Spokane by archery in a day you know what we're here for it yeah yeah what better way of shooting bows and building bows bows and hoes dan dan and josh I'm trying not to laugh anytime you can say that on video all right I have that as a title dot dot that thing for me just because I did a combo that's the title oh that's just my wife's not gonna prove there's no no arrow no let down don't you're fine just let down slowly I'm like I'm scared to hurry down maybe you help me just so I don't oh my gosh I didn't even see that you can't tell jokes you're gonna make me three thousand dollar bow well we haven't paid for it yeah we could have just left it's true high and dry all right so we don't do that we don't do a good job yeah glad we got this guy here oh my gosh left get off my arrow hey jeff if you're looking at my arrow do you think it's like a pretty good shot it's pretty good yeah where's her arrow right next to yours so it's two good shots do you think we could do three good shots in a row what do we think we're just trying to get high let's tell jokes on him you made me laugh right before I fired that's what you got to do I mean that's a lot of pressure to he does have a martin chag head on oh all right all right he's got that going oh my money's on him that's what I'm saying we're all right I got ice in my veins all right Audrey okay I don't even know which one's mine is this me that's you okay got it such a good shot that's trippy because I can it is a trippy shot I didn't really see this was the coolest shot of the day that we didn't get on camera but it was through those two pine trees over there it's kind of a cool it was kind of a tack shot I'm gonna remember that for next time we'll go 122 to the cow moose I don't know I don't know where to hit I don't like the word little low I like the word hey that's perfect shot oh yeah that's like a top top of the vital that's great ladies go hang out a trunk dress man good tune so it's very common very very common for people to run too long of a draw length I don't know if it's a short thing or compensating or what have you but one of the worst things you can do is run your draw length too long because it's really hard to point and while we were redoing this bow we noticed this draw length just slightly too long so we're just going to take a half inch out of it and it's easy enough if you have the right modules and we do so it'll be done in a jiffy and a side note I'm talking to Mike is that when he was at full draw this outsert or I guess it'd be an outsert half out whatever you want to call it adapter this adapter was on the rest launcher it's a no-go that's not that's bad so that'll actually why is that bad well because you're gonna it's tapered right so if you draw it back and you creep a little bit the height that your arrow is going to change so your impact point is going to change it's going to change a lot you're automatically going to start hitting lower as soon as we fire this so you're probably going to want to bump that again you're still too short dude you're still on the launcher anchor and let me look at you so are we still too long if you you got to keep your hips your shoulders and your feet relatively in line and if you're doing this you're compensating for the length right so try it again I'm going to try to move you if you hip again oh yeah you're hippy you're hip damn hippy okay point at the floor like you're trying to shoot downhill bend at your waist when you do it bend bend bend okay go way up at the sky keep going up up up up up up up up it sure looks like you're struggling to shoot that length come back down to level so this is a 33 and it's a g so that means it's like 28 and a half right now let's measure your drawing I'm willing to bet you're probably shorter than that well I thought it was supposed to be at 28 and a half I was at 29 it's now at 28 and a half and these run long so it's really closer to 29 oh look at that you're still getting a little hippy but oh so much better now point at the floor that looks a million times better point at the ceiling lean lean always here always here good that's so much better yeah you're good rest in peace tv and look at that your arrow's now about almost an inch of clearance really well yeah dude it's a this is oh my gosh this is an inch and a half or two inches you still see through your peep okay now realize yeah you're not going to hit the same spot so now you got to move that again like we said 3d turn it tomorrow and you can sight in the whole time I'd rather have groups like this and then 25 feet a second faster yeah I wouldn't ever I wouldn't ever manipulate my draw length for a benefit period no matter what I would not all ready to go I don't know if I'm a great guesser dozen arrows dozen field points module grip and sight does that sound like everything okay yes sir your totals stay tuned for episode two we're gonna do a badass workout all right welcome to the elk shape training I'm a new younger more fit dan no just we're gonna take it in a 3d shoot tomorrow these three versus me best arrow for them versus my one arrow here we go 31.9 don't believe them should be a layout for you embarrassing if you miss this one I left room I want a two minute clock countdown for him on the next target don't worry his shoulders been holding that bow up this whole time that left arm is already fatigued it's feeling heavier that'll work it's gonna be awesome comment below if you like this video if you want to see more separations in the preparation catch on the next one
