Hey there! This is my first post about archery, so I thought that I could have done a tour of my setup. As I wrote in the about page, I’m a Olmpic recurve archer based in Italy. I do this for almost five years! If you don’t understand everything I say, you can check out the youtube channel Nusensei. It’s a very good source, especially for beginners.

Ok, the setup. I own a Fiberbow 5.99 LH (yes, I’m left handed) as my riser, the central part of the bow. It’s made by carbon fiber so it’s very lightweight. And is not painted too: It looks kinda cool. Many experienced archers could complain saying that carbon fiber bends and this is a bad thing. Instead, I think this gives you a nice feedback when you release. Also I tried to raise a friend’s Hoyt Prodigy XT, and there’s no way I’m going to lift such a weight on a regular base. Both the risers mentioned are high-range ones: I got mine 50% off because it wasn’t the latest model and it had some minor ahestetic flaws. Also, this isn’t my first one. In fact, I used to shoot with an Orange SF Premium: great bow for beginners!

As limbs, I use a pair of EXE College rated at 34 pounds. Since I’m quite tall (limbs and riser toghether make a 70” tall bow), my draw length is around 29.5” and my draw weight is around 38 pounds.

The sight is a Shibuya Dual Click. You can check out this review by Nusensei (by the way, I knew his channel from this very video).

As stabilizers, I use a set of Fiberbow S.3 ones with yellow dampeners (for those who know the difference between the colours).

As plunger button, I use a EXE one. It’s a middle range one, but it seems very well built and it works fine! Also, I’m not going to spend 90€ for a Cartel one.

My current arrows are a set of Easton X7 Eclipse spined at 2213. These are winter alluminium arrows, but since they are cheaper than carbon ones, I bought these as a total replacement of my VAP V6 600. Those, due to form flaws, were 2 inches too short. Oh, and I always used Spin Wings and Elivanes, a stiffer plastic italian replacement.
