Some reviews said that the seller will give me a video on how to string the bow, I never received it so does anyone know about that video?

Why do you need a video? Brace one limb against the outside of your left foot, bend the bow around your right thigh, pull the upper limb to your left with your right hand, and string the bow! It's easier than tying your shoe laces.

The video is on YouTube and the guy gives a physical demonstration stringing the bow by bracing the already hooked opposite end around is ankle while using his leg to provide a fulcrum for bending the bow back towards himself so it can be strung.. Clear as mud? It's really quite simple and intuitive.

I don't know anything about a video from the vendor. But there are many videos on youtube on how to string a bow. The stepthrough method is highly effective on this one, but is a little dangerous to both the bow and the archer if done incorrectly. The safest method is to use a bow stringer. Which is a device that fits on the tips loosely, you step on the rope with your foot, and pull the middle of the bow up. Bracing it enough to slip the string in the knocks. Hit up youtube and watch both methods before deciding which you are more comfortable with.

Hello,I haven't seen that video. What can suggest, look for some of them on Youtube (a lot of videos how to use recurve bows). Buffalo is not my first recurve mongolian bow and is harder to string than for example Samick's but it's not impossible. Do it slowly and carefully, like every recurve bow can be easy damaged by uneven stringing ends or by rotating limbs. Good luck.some links:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gak6iSjF52whttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17Y3IprEdFU

I have no idea why you need a stringer for a comp-bow. But no, doubt it. NOT SURE, but I doubt it.

Well I just put mine on today. And fired (10) shots with it. Seems to pull way to the left from the Hand Rope. The directions are pretty vague and the diagrams are too small. But I did manage to get it to work. Not happy with the cords cross, seems to me they should never touch and only be parallel. Then once you get the claws back, you have to release it forward, then over the scope then crank it back in behind the scope. Kind of a Hokie Design but it does work. This bow is seriously hard to pull back, not sure how an older or handycapped person could ever do it without a crank.

I received a rope cocking device in with the packaging. It is just about impossible to pull the bow string with your hands. But it is 100x easier with the rope cocking tool.

yes go to an archery store tell them to adjust it with new cams if they cant the frame is too lite weight to handle it or there are no parts avail. Indians did it with prob. 40 pound long bows

It's alresdy stringed. You just have to put the bridge in. I think the bow is good. Honestly I've never owned a cello before, so my opinion may not be the best.

I am a beginner also. I would suggest going to YouTube and check out a video by fiddlerman. He reviews the black version of this violin. He gave a favorable review. What he plays in the video sounds good. Alot better than my playing. You will probably want to get higher quality strings. Hope this helps.

The booklet that came with bow, the very last page. Was/is the warranty form that they urge you to fill out ASAP and mail in (with proof of purchase it think)I mailed mine with in the first week (few days)Barnett should back their products, I have only heard praise about Barnett and that they are the Cadillac of Bow makers.Honestly this was my first cross bow, I HAVE no complaints, Great products

Hello, I bought it for my nieces 7th bday and its a nice starter bow. It will require a bit of practice and assistance until she gets the motion down but if she's interested I think it is awesome and you should go for it!

I had a very hard time as well. It took 3 grown men to do this. I suggest looking on YouTube on how to string the crossbow. It was very helpful, but like I said, you will need 3 to do this

As far as I know it looks like it's all wooden bowl The tips Are exposed wood and the rest of the bow is wrapped in leather i've had it out several times and Shot with it i've only had it out in arrangers about 32 feet but it shoots great. Although you should get a wrist guard because it will snap your wrist. On my the string measured about about 3 inches from the center of the bow

I used the included rope cocking device. It's very easy to cock the bow with it and requires minimal effort. I hope this is useful to you.

No my bow broke and they would not fix it. Lucky for me it was less than 30 days old so Amazon gave me my money back.

As I noted in my original review it wasn't easy. I'm pretty handy so I was able to figure out a method that has since held the course of a year and thousands of shots. Excellent product still! Since the time I figured things out this you tube video came along that is very helpful and should take out some of the mystery (wish I thought of the twist-ties at the time... that's a tremendous help!). Head over to your local HS and if they still have their goals out and about that should also be a good source. Here is the link: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=s0KTiN2SraI&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Ds0KTiN2SraI - hope this helps! And yes, I would buy this product again!

The bow works great. It's tight the first few times, but it loosens. Have fun with it!
