water take home bring back them good old days I used to know must've been something in the water that old sawmill cream baptized in the heart I got down on my knee

afternoon guys Dave camera at the pathline school I wanted to just shoot a really quick video today to show you a common man find from a sale today actually I found it at an archery event traditional archery events are great places to go to find used gear at good prices if you're looking for something common man you can usually find it at a traditional tree shoot we went to the state shoot this weekend took some kids out there from the Pathfinder youth went out there with about 10 kids and 10 adults that had never been to a traditional archery event how to blast went back over there today is chitchat with some people at iris and I know over there

IBO people and things like that people that own the Jackson bow hunters and are members of the Ohio State traditional archers Association we went out there and I found a Ben Pearson fiberglass bow solid dark green with a black handle 45 pound draw written right on it 20 bucks 20 bucks you cannot beat that for a bow that you could stake your life on and I would stake my life on this bow every day all day and that's what it's about when you're looking for the common man bulletproof gear there's nothing more bulletproof than a solid fiberglass bow stay with me I'll show it to you this is a Ben Pearson bow it is number three three six zero I assume that's a model number 52 inches 45 pounds it's dark green it was made that way with a black plastic handle it's got a string on it here with a knock point that was already on it when I bought it 20 bucks 20 bucks for this bow guys all right things shoots like a dream it's just very short bow you can see it only comes up to about my chest and I'm only like 5 foot 7 so it's a really really short bow it's nice and compact it's made out of solid fiberglass you're never going to destroy something like this this is the perfect survival bow you know I showed a survival bow not very long ago and when I was shot some targets with it but it was nothing compared to this this thing's a lot heavier duty that's it got a lot more beef to it and I'm just I'm actually in love with this thing I would give up just about every bow I had to keep this one to be honest with you so let's shoot this thing a few times because I shot a couple wood arrows out of it and man oh man is it fast but I want to show you how fast it is and how good it shoots so hang tight okay I've got a couple of just cedar arrows here flu flus with like a few points on that stylet you see this kind of an over-the-shoulder type deal here let's see how fast this bow is yeah spine shot they're shooting a little bit to the right for me hurt to the left I should say like to adjust out on the next series man is fast goodness sakes all right there's two zoom in a little bit if I can the best I'm going to get let's see if I can get something coming out the target from behind anything is super fast well sure okay well I wouldn't got a carbon arrow and this is one of our three-piece prototypes it's a cheaper beam and arrow we now make them with a lot more higher quality arrow than this on our three-piece take downs but this is one of the prototypes but it'll fly great out of this bow guaranteed so we're gonna try that a little bit further away get this turn around show you the shot think you can see that all right see what kind of penetration that thing had heavy-duty okay guys well that was just a quick look at this Ben Pearson 45 pound bow like I said it's nice it's dark green black handle you can't beat this thing 20 bucks 20 bucks I encourage you to go out common man gear is easy to find

bulletproof common man gear can be found you just have to keep your eyes open like I said I would not hesitate to hunt anything with this bow I would hunt elk I would hunt bear I have no problem with that it's a 45 pound bow it'll kill anything in the United States and I would not think twice about carrying this thing in my backpack because it's bulletproof there's no way you're going to tear this bow up it's a solid piece of fiberglass it's got a nice big heavy-duty rubber handle on it the only thing you can wear out the string long as you're carrying bank line you got that covered so Ben Pearson number 30 360 case you want to try to find one of those somewhere on eBay or Craigslist or someplace like that like I said I got this one for 20 bucks most of the ones I see on eBay that aren't near this good go for around 50 bucks ok guys well I'm Dave camber at the path fire school I appreciate you join me for this video I hope that you enjoyed looking at this piece of gear hopefully you can find something very similar you just got to keep your eyes open you know every sale every event every gun show things like that just travel around to those places and you'll find good deals on things I found a lot of cheap bows that were not cheap bows at gun shows people walk around they want to get rid of them especially at the end of hunting season things like that and you'll find deals on those as well as guns at gun shows traditional archery shoots rummage sales places like that just keep your eyes open any time I find a deal I want to share with you guys I appreciate you join me for this video I appreciate all your support I appreciate everything you do for me for my family and for my school again I'm Dave Canterbury the Pathfinder school and I'll be back in another video as soon as I can you
