A heck of an idea, especially with all the armegeddon stuff that is so popular these days. I figure it will sell well. Best part for me was the guy looked like he was genuinely having fun.

I can only imagine the things going through the heads here, posted or not...lol.

"Is it ILF? Is it long enough for my draw? Can I get it in 35# and work up? Where do I put the sights? He said you have to shoot instinctive!!!!!! ARRRGGHHHH!!!!! Wow--did you notice how awful his form was? He didn't even anchor! Said he hasn't shot in nearly 2 decades, but was hitting a deer in the kill @ 15 yds? NO WAY! It takes YEARS to be able to do that with 50#!!!!"

:lol3:

Thanks for the link SS--it was interesting.

I found the bow interesting as I'm a prepper. I know the good folks here will critique the video. :teeth:

To be honest, I was wondering what kind of string it came with and if the bow is rated for HMPE materials.

Chad, several of those thoughts went through my head watching that:lol:

It's neat, but I'm not sure how practical it would be for a survival tool?

I see it as a gimmick--might be fun to have one around though. You can cut a green hickory sapling and have enough bow to kill a deer. Just like with bullets, sooner or later you'd run out of broadheads. Learning to knap flint or even properly temper bamboo would take time. If the world gets to the point where that bow is the difference between living and dying......we're screwed.

it is a decent idea. I believe this has been brought up before.

A folding bow would go well with a folding knife. Swiss should perfect this idea. I can see the glossy red riser being a hit.

I think it does make for a neat challenge: making a good hunting bow that makes for the smallest broken down package. Hmmm...
