    Nice to see you shooting in Sunday Armin. 🏹😉👍Definitely I will go with the Zhu Ran is very beautiful and for the price you are receiving an elegant bow and it generates good performance. AF archery has improved a lot in quality control management. Enjoy the Sunday 👍

    Perfect timing on this video. I was stressing out about going back to work on my Monday. And master Armin video reminds me that there is an alternative, I can always quit my job and live modestly. Someday I will save enough money so I can shoot all my bows all day long while my money goes to work for me :))

    Hello Armin, I am a chinese archery fan who subsrcibed you for a few years, so happy that you show us these nice bows and shots including those from my country and other regions of the world! Your videos and channel are absolutly being better and bringing me and my friends more happiness, wish you have a nice life and bring us (all the archery guys and gals around the world) more amazing contents!

    I have the non take down Tang Chang An. Can't recommend it enough. It is definitely tough to string until you get the hang of it. But it's an epic bow to shoot! The draw is incredible, the sound amazing and it's very accurate, powerful and looks spectacular. I would spend my money on one of Alibow's "Luxury Wood" finishes over the takedown mechanism. Shoots great with Sarmat Bamboo Manchu arrows.

  • @OlivierNeu
    @OlivierNeu 3 года назад

    Thank you for the nice detailed comparison 🙏. You're thoughts on these bows are greatly appreciated!
    The asymmetrical design, smooth draw and awesome power make the Tang Chang An my personal favourite 😁

  • @0ooTheMAXXoo0
    @0ooTheMAXXoo0 2 года назад +4

    The weight on the tip does have benefits. More weight in the ears means more string stretching at the end of the snap as the tips have moving mass that will travel past its normal braced position. It is a trade-off that gives you less initial speed, but more push for heavier arrows.

    Did anyone else jump out their skin when Armin hissed at that cat? 0_o
    I let my eleven-year-old neighbour try my bow a little while ago, and now he has pestered his father to buy him a "soft" archery set to use in his own garden... And my friend's son is getting a full recurve starter kit for his 10th birthday this month... So great to see youngsters taking an interest! So, I learn new things from Armin, then I teach to the munchkins, thus wisdom is shared :D

    Two question I have for you today :)
    - Does pulling in your stomach instead of a tight core help when shooting in traditional archery ?
    - Can you do a video on how to make targets, both suspended and fixed ?
    Thank you for all of your content!

    • @ArminHirmer
      @ArminHirmer  3 года назад +2

      A tight core is surely enough as long as you know how to do it (like every martial artist will know) I still prefer the more dynamic way of condensing the body to the ming men, feels more natural. Targets might be tricky as I dont own the range anymore and I myself have not a lot of material to work with

    Hi.
    Könntest du eventuell mal eine Miniserie machen, wo du Einsteigerbögen für Daumentechnik unter 200€ vergleichst? ich weiß, es gibt nicht viele. aber eventuell findet sich ja was interessantes.
    Ich persönlich finde ja den Rolan Snake im schussverhalten extrem unruhig und unbequem. eine alternative wäre toll.
    P.S. Ich selbst werde demnächst den BUCK TRAIL Metis 60" Hybridbogen mal probeschießen. der liegt bei unter 100€
    P.P.S. ich liebe deine Videos. deine Art zu schießen inspiriert mich. Dank deiner Videos habe ich mich an die Daumentechnik ran getraut und bin mit dem Kyzl Curon sehr zufrieden. Nur um die Technik zu verbessern ist er mir etwas zu stark und (wie erwähnt) der Rolan Snake zu unruhig.
    Vielen Dank für deine Videos und mach weiter so!

    Have many different bows not but would be nice to have at least one with more power.
