- Takedown Recurve Bow and Arrow Set for Adults & Teens 62" - 15-60lb Draw Weight, Right & Left Handed Bows - Archery Set with Bowstring, Arrow Rest, Stringer Tool, and Bow Sight

My wife and I both are avid bow-shooting enthusiasts. We shoot regularly in our back yard, and go to the local park where there is a range shooting up to 60 yards out. My 45 lb bow does pretty well, but the mounts for a sight aren't especially good and I often have to cant the bow via dead reckoning to achieve the distance. My wife also has a 35 lb bow which does not allow for sights - and so she too runs into this issue. Together, we spent well over $500 on our bows, and those didn't include sights. We took this bow out today to shoot to test it out. At the 20, 30, and then the 40 yard range. Here are some of our impressions: - Make absolutely sure you take the bow in to get nocked at a pro shop. You will thank me later. It not only makes shooting the bow easier, but it also make it safer to fire. - The brace height is approximately 7.4 inches as it's base install ( you can increase this by adding more twists to the top of your string ). - This bow LOVES carbon fiber arrows with feather fletches. Don't buy cheap arrows with plastic "toy" fletches - you won't get accuracy ). - With a standard .35 grain field tips - the bow has pretty decent stopping power. This is enough to deploy on most situations and get your arrows stuck into wood requiring some force to pull them out. If you want to shoot at a longer range, lighter arrows will achieve this, but we didn't test them out ) - The arrow rest is ok, but without the string properly nocked, we lost several feathers. This is due to either the arrow making too much contact with the bow during flight ( you can use baby powder to check for contact ), or our arrows need to be re-fletched. I'm sure it's a combination of both heavily leaning on the latter, so I won't fault the bow. My wife might opt to remove this entirely and use a felt or horse hair arrow rest - which may smoothen the flight. Since we shoot with feather fletched arrows - this is ideal. - The draw is smooth and we were able to achieve good accuracy with the bow. Most people who experience bad accuracy are shooting incorrectly ( don't grip the handle! Cradle it so that it moves freely. - Breaking down the bow is easy, and we are super glad this came with a stringer. - The sights are easy to manage and for all practical purposes are great. We will in all likelihood mark the locations of the sights so that we can adjust for distance on the fly. I was able to achieve a 14 inch pattern at 20 yards without the use of proper nocks. This wasn't necessarily easy, but it speaks a lot about how "complete" the bow is. My wife enjoys it and was able to achieve a slightly larger pattern, but like me - really wants to nock the string asap to ensure a proper alignment of the arrow on each flight. We love the bow, and it's a great novice-intermediate bow for someone who is moving up from a youth bow and into something with a little more punch without getting punched in the wallet.

I loved archery, as a kid. Launching an arrow straight up, realizing what a bad idea that was; running in abject terror. Good times. Now that I'm older and sometimes wiser, I wanted to take the hobby back up, and share it with my kids. I purchased this bow, and it is incredible fun. The riser is really beautiful wood, and the finish is flawless. The thumbscrews for the limbs make setup and takedown easy, yet the hold the limbs in a rock solid manner. The bow stringer included makes setup easy and uneventful... Well, after I broke down and actually read the instructions. The bow sight is super easy to use (Just move the sight towards where the arrows group until they all go in the middle), and removes with a thumbscrew for ease of storage. The arrow rest is a cheap stick on plastic bit (The riser has a standard fitting for fancy rests), but I'll be darned if it doesn't work just fine. The only things you need are arrows, and whatever nocks you want for the string, to get going. The bow is a joy to use - very light, but rock solid. I got the 35lb draw weight for targets, and so the kiddos could use it. The draw is smooth and effortless. The draw seems to be ~29 inches, but if your offspring's arms aren't that long, it still works excellent. Really drills the arrows in, and for thirty yard practice, it pretty much shoots flat. I was surprised how easy it was to get great groupings. It's also pretty quiet without string silencers - No buzzing or other odd sounds that certain bows make. Broken down, the bow is super easy to transport. I also like that all the fittings for accessories like the sight, arrow rest, stabilizer are all standard. If you care to, you could really trick the bow out, but I've found all the included accessories work perfectly well. All in all, it is a solid bow that punches well above its weight in value and looks great. Update: Bow continues to impress - I keep getting better and better with it (Clearly, the bow is more accurate than I am). Waxed the string, added to otter string silencers (also found out otters are apparently delightfully fluffy), and it is ridiculously silent now. I pick it up and use it in the yard way more than I thought. No wear on the string.

What a great bow. Easy to put the limbs on the riser. I strung it right up and was hitting the bullseye easily just resting the arrow on my finger - I hadn’t put the arrow rest in yet. Everything seems firm and smooth. I gave four stars only because the instructions aren’t very good/clear. Where exactly do I put the arrow rest….? I’ll figure it out.

tl;dr -Durable limbs will survive overdrawing -Handsome, well-made Riser -Can fit Samick limbs on the Keshes Riser -deserves a better bowsight I bought a 30lb Keshes in November of 2018. Five months later I've finally upgraded to a new bow but my Keshes bow is still going strong. I only bought a new bow because I was overdrawing and needed a longer AMO. I never expected a bow under $100 to last this long, but it's stood up to almost daily practice and several stump shooting adventures. Not to say it's immaculate... The sight that comes with it is quite limited (but free) and one of the taps for the bowsight was misbored. I replaced the tap with a piece of hardware from Lowes, cost me less than $5 and I should imagine this issue is umcommon. Other than that it's just usual wear and tear. Both my taps have pulled out with use but they can be hammered back in without issue. The arrow rest is worn down to a nub. The serving on the bowstring frayed but I was able to cut it down and re-serve it. The limbs and the riser though? These things are made to last. One reason I bought a new bow was to get a higher draw weight. Perhaps they can't advertise this but Samick and SAS limbs have the proper dimension to fit the pockets on the Keshes riser. I'd had my suspicions but couldn't be sure. As soon as I got my Spyder XL and confirmed the fit I actually ordered a set of #35 Samick limbs to put on my Keshes (the Spyder XL is magnificent but rather large to shoot indoors). Not sure I'd wanna put the 64" XL limbs on here (they require a different shaped bolt too) but I'd feel confident using it with Samick 62" limbs. If you do swap limbs make sure your bowstring is apporpriate for your draw weight!

I have been into archery for almost ten years, and I have owned a good many bows from various brands. I was looking to replace my previous one with another takedown, as they're quality bows at incredibly affordable prices. I got my bow yesterday and couldn't wait to try it out. Setting up the bow was simple enough, (although detailed instructions for beginners was included in the box.) The riser block is made from a layered wood system. I absolutely love the grains of the woodwork, which makes this look like a much more expensive bow than it actually is. My previous bow had a gloss finish. This one is a smooth matt, and I love it!! I haven't officially used this yet, but I did give it a test run, and it seems like a smooth shooter. No quality issues, the limbs fit properly, and again, I love the finish. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied. I highly recommend this product if you prefer a quality practice bow at an affordable price.

I'm VERY pleased with this bow. The bow was easy to assemble, the limbs aligned pretty darn close to perfect, and are solid. I was able to adjust/tune it easily. The shooting consistency is excellent as is the quailty. No dings or rubs on any piece, with a very good finish. I added string silencers and a pressure button, and now this bow is absolutely perfect for target shooting. I purchased the 62" bow @ 35 lb pull, so it's a little light for some of the bigger game if you were to hunt with it. I can group a 12" spread at 25 yds consistently, and getting better with more "bow time". A little technique, ie handle grip, (or lack of grip) and consistent arrow draw makes all the difference in keeping a decent grouping. A pleasure to shoot! Yep, 5 stars.

Bought this as a Christmas gift. He very much enjoyed it. Well made, easy to assemble and use. Only downside is the stick on arrow rests are really crap. Best to buy a spring loaded arrow rest and use the screw to secure it. The adhesives are garbage. Also, this bow works best with a bow stringer. Bow stringers are not that easy for kids with short reach and not a lot of strength. We got a 35 lb bow and it was just at the cusp of him being able to string it with my help. Overall very pleased. Just make sure to pick the right directional bow (right or left hand) and test your eye and hand dominance before buying. In my sons case it was a cross dominance and he needed a left handed bow after we bought a right. Who Knew!

I am very pleased with this purchase. My daughter has recently gotten into archery, and I like to get involved with the stuff they like and share in the fun. I wanted something that I would be able to learn into the intermediate range on, and after doing some research, Keshes seemed like a good quality choice. I was on a budget, and Keshes products looked comparable with some of the higher-end products, but their prices seemed much more reasonable, and I'm a fan of supporting quality craftsmanship. The instructions were easy to follow, and made stringing the bow a piece of cake. The sight was also easy to assemble and the bow was ready to use less than 30 minutes out of the box. Speaking of, the bow was packaged well, and the box arrived in great shape. It wasn't over-packed with a bunch of trash, but it wasn't just thrown in there either. I was impressed enough with this quality and price of this product that i decided to stick with Keshes when I was deciding on arrows, and I wasn't disappointed at all, but will save that review for the arrows page.
