Nice review! I think it's cool you referred to them as "sport bows" since the modern KTB is made intended for target sport use. Also the Gojah (dogoji-tip) length was super helpful, as I noticed among the 4ish KTBs i've owned, you see a lot of variation there. Not just in the length but the shape/width. Some are flatter, taller etc. Looking forward to pt. 2.
☺️ Thank you so much, dear Ian! ☺️🙏🙏 I’m very happy, that you have found valuable information for you! 👍 Hope, you enjoy the other two parts as well 😁 Best wishes! 🏹🔆
I am curious about how korean bow poundage is measured. All my Korean bows have their approximate poundage at 28 inches and not 31 inches. I was beginning to think the 31 inch thing was a myth, ans then I find evidence its true for some bows. Eg my 35# Freddie Archery Black Shadow is 35 at 28 and about 50 at full draw.
@@agamagreen I was looking in Wikipedia for traditional Korean units of measurement and found that their traditional "pound" was 600g as opposed to the Imperial 454g. So 35lb could be either 15.89kg or 21kg? I'm still not sure what or how Korean bows are rated.
I love your passion for archery well asiatic type. For me I not that accurate with Korean bows because brace height is short and arrow pass is too thick. I am actually more accurate with my $129 af tartar than my $260 kaya black cat. They are around the same draw weight.
Thank you so much, dear pyramid_scheme_termination3! ☺️🙏 It seems to be logical, that a narrow arrow pass increases accuracy. I haven’t proofed this thesis so far. I practice with many bows and try to hit the center with all of them. Potentially, that’s the reason why a wider arrow pass doesn’t stop me from hitting the center from time to time 😁 I think, if you are used to one specific bow, you are trained in a particular way. If you then switch ‘suddenly’ to another bow, the brain needs to adapt and this can take some shots. Or maybe the Korean bow design isn’t your cup of tea, which is totally fine of course! Most important is, that you enjoy what you do! Keep up the fun! ☺️🏹🔆
@@agamagreenan other variable is handle shape in my opinion. I think some people are more consistent with different handle shapes. I took off the leather wrapping of my blackcat so I was left with with a grippy rubber handle. I think different inconsistent variations of torque can happen from inconsistencies from how your grip the handle
@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 I agree, it’s all about getting used to something and like it. There are some handles, that I cannot use and need to modify until it doesn’t hurt anymore… others are so small, that I get bruises in the bow hand… The handle is very important! 😁 If the archer doesn’t need to focus on the handle, the concentration flows into the shooting sequence 👊😄
You said that Heekiong is a chineese bow. Strictly speaking its correct, but I think they are from the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in China, which borders North Korea. It has a high population of ethnic Koreans. So for me it still counts as a Korean bow. 😊
@@KTBIOM 😁 I understand your point, but… for example “Champagne” is only allowed to be called like this, if this drink has been made in exactly this area, every other Sparkling wine needs to be called “Sparkling wine”. So, I keep it likewise with bows: this bow has the shape of a KTB, but produced in China 🤓 👊☺️

Usually the Korean bowyers measure at 31,3”, but I guess, that some of them, who export regularly, switch to 28” - but this is pure guessing 😁
