I am not a bow expert in any way shape or form, and I really mean that, so lets get that established before this review starts. Prior to purchasing this Samick Sage takedown recurve bow, the last time I shot a bow and arrow, let alone even held one, was all the way back in my school days. And that was a few moons ago (notice the grandpa title in my name).That being said, I think this is a great beginners bow, or one for the ladies or even the kids. I purchased this being a small framed male under 150 lbs in weight to use and for my wife who is smaller than myself. The size, pull length and weight of the bow is just right for my size (5'8") and weight (150 lbs) and for the wife (5'6", do you really think I will put her weight up?). I have not had a chance to shot it for lengths of time at targets or at an archery course. But I have shot a few dozen arrows from the bow off the back deck. And I can say she performs well and shoots straight each time. Even at over 50 yards the bow can make a practice arrow stick in the side of our back yard shed. So even though the bow is only 35 pounds in pull strength, she does give a powerful shot.Now to the quality of the bow. The maple center of the bow is very nice, good quality and has a nice smooth finish to it. The black arms really compliment the maple center and gives it an expensive yet classy look. It took me a while to figure out how to string the bow, for as I said I am in no way a bow or arrow expert. But thanks to a few videos on YT I was able to get her stringed with the bow string that came included. The bow also has room to add all the gear one normally finds on a bow such as sights or what not. Items and parts that I am still studying and trying to figure out if I need or not for the level of shooting I plan on doing.If you are new to shooting a bow and arrow, or a small framed male, or a woman or a child. I would recommend this Samick Sage takedown recurve bow to you. I am very pleased that I purchased this bow over many others that I saw. I did shop around before purchasing this Samick Sagew recurve bow, and even made the mistake of buying a "hand made" one from China first (what a nightmare that was). So after shopping around, price comparing, review comparisons, and all that good stuff. I picked the Samick Sage recurve bow over the others and I am happy that I did. I hope to see many years of shooting fun for the wife and I with this bow.We were not paid nor discounted in any way, shape or form for giving our honest opinion here of this product as a review to assist others.

The Sage is a classic "first bow" for many wanting a 3-piece take down traditional bow. It came with good packaging and protection, was easy to set up, and the thumb screw style limb bolts trade off visual appeal and smooth lines for very simple set up and take down with no tools. I did upgrade my continuous loop string with a flemish twist style (both work fine - it comes down to personal choice) - but if you want a bow to take down for transport and easier storage, or the option to quickly swap draw weights in a single riser, the Samick Sage is a perfect option for those shopping the "black hunter" style of bows. With the price to performance ratio being so good, you can afford to introduce others in the family to the sport as well. I ended up with a couple of them as shown.
