- Now that is an impressive fiberglass bow.
Smooth draw, almost no hand shock even with light weight arrows.
A beauty and very precise.

I love the way you burn the customs office unrelentingly. 😂
I just got one of these a couple days ago as my first bow for thumb draw. I've been having a blast with it! Thank you for the review because it's how I discovered it 🙂
I always enjoy watching your reviews , it makes my day and I feel a part of the archery community. I have learnt the most from you in achery , I bought the take down fiber glass bow that you reviewed a month ago and they are fantastic for the price. Great starting point to move on up to even today bow very very nice $150 it's worth it. You pay that for crap bows let alone a beautiful bow like that. Thank you for your passion in achery. Have a happy Christmas
Thank you for your kind words Luis
"Reading is not everybody's strength." 😂😂

Armin Hirmer. Thank you sir for taking the time to write back. If you would subscribe to any channel thank you sir.
Hello Armin
Thank you for pointing me in the direction of this bow it looks perfect for my starter bow.
Cheers Mark
It finally arrived and will worth the wait.
Thank you
Came back to this review because Alibow has this bow on sale now. I think yes!!
I`ve ordered this bow today, thanks to your review. I just started with horseback archery so I'm very excited for this bow! 😀
Alibow has a clearance sale for this bow right now! Although it wasn't really in my budget, I ordered one:D (35# at 28"). Not going to make another purchase for a while. Really. This one, plus my Snakes and Alibow Tatar (fiberglass), will create my learning rotation for the summer:) I hadn't seen this review yet. Nice one.
Armin again another excellent video I had just ordered the Crimea Tatar by Alibow but it was not delivered yet but after seeing this video I now want to change my order to this bow.I was very impressed by the curves as you said.Thanks again Armin.
thank you for watching
Looks like a great bow for the money . Another great review.
Thanks for watching
Got my 10% on this bow. Thank you sir. Can't wait to see it. Cheers.
Good looking bow for a glass bow. Nice shape great curves. Like I said last time this Yuen style is really starting to grow on me. I can't wait for a company like Alibow to start bending fiber glass like they are in Indonesia I really think they could make some awesome designs relatively inexpensive. Thanks for another great review as always. Hope you find that Turkish I'm really looking forward to the review on their upgrades.
thank you for watching
@@ArminHirmer I've never missed a review since I've subscribed. Most informative channel out there with regards to eastern style archery and Asiatic reflex bows. So no thank you Armin for the great community you started here. We all appreciate it!!!!!!!!
Great review. That bow looks awesome Armin. 🙏
Thank you Keith. You can test the bow tomorrow :)
That's great Armin. Looking forward 🏹
The fibreglass with leather looks almost like the Kaya KTB and windfighter, good quality craftsmanship!
And the Glass responds as predicted!
Didn't see this review, which makes it even nicer to suddenly see it pop up,! Interesting bow, might need to look into it 😏
Hello Armin
I have just ordered this bow with a set a arrows and thumb ring from ali bow using your discount code, thank you for the advice.
Cheers Mark
Oh the dear people at Malta customs; they never change! Thank you for the review
thank you for watching
I was unaware of the restrictions on the draw weight. Very interesting
Thanks for watching
So, the Alibow Tatar Bow remains the fiberglass bow 10 gpp speed king, at 50.9 m/s (167 fps). I had a feeling this bow wouldn't take its crown because of how close those string bridges are to the limb's tips. Great review as always.
Yes Tatar is a bit faster, but overall it's not only about speed
@@ArminHirmer Yes, the workmanship on this bow's finishing is definitely a step up. These are great bow if you live in a damp climate like I do.
Do you have a comparison video for the different AliBow options? They all sound decent and look similar. I've shot archery in the past but don't have a bow currently. I would like to learn thumb release and also just shoot western. Since prices range $70-150 and different regions/eras represented, how does one choose?
Hi there Kevin, if you haven't bought a bow yet I might be able to offer some advice.
From Alibow's fiberglass options, this bow seems to be Armin's top pick. It also is one of the most expensive, up there with the "advanced manchu" which would be a good pick if you're looking for a "cheap" manchu bow with a very long draw length.
All the other fiberglass bows seem to be decent, as their price reflects. I have a laminated bow from alibow, so I'm going to buy a fiberglass one in the $70-$100 range for my friends to practice with. It won't be a huge bummer if it gets damaged. If I didn't have a laminated bow and didn't want to spend $300 on a bow, I would get this bow, the Yuan. Nice compromise.
@@malachib5659 thank you for this helpful info. I'm about to purchase my first bite
Ordered this bow I'm really excited to shoot it. This will be my first bow of its kind. However, due to Covid It has not even left China and its been 1 1/2 months since I ordered it.
Just got my bow and it feels AMAZING. Thanks for the review :)
Mongol fiber glass Bow from Alibow good option for keep practice thumb draw. thanks
I love that Mongolian bow.
Seen something odd @ time stamp 13:39 to 13:48 : Look at the arrows in the target as Armin Shoots and said, " I don't think so",. Did anyone else see Smoke or a Mist??. I don't think dust would of stayed in the area in or in a cloud about the size of an avg. fist In the time between Each arrow hit. I'm still trying to understand How dust can keep it's Cloud like State with even light wind?? I guess the tarp on top could be a factor.
Molding hay :)
Thanks for measuring nock to nock, man. This character in one of my stories uses a (fiberglass yea) Mongol style bow but I haven't been able to come up with a size; just that it's short and maneuverable. So yeah this video helps and I love the design, like how it tapers in toward the handle and the siyahs are longer, that sort of stuff.
What a lovely bow, especially for the price. I like the belly treatment!
thank you for watching
Ive just got this bow, partly from this great review. Thank you and very much. Can you please give me specifics for what arrows that best suits this bow.
Ones again thank you in advanced
Which arrows would you recommend for the perfect fit with this bow? Considering purchasing it.
I wonder at higher draw weight the bow would become more efficient since the weight of the siyah are the same. The fps for same gpp arrow would increase?
I would love a comparison between the yuan fibreglass by alibow and the crabby fibreglass by numair. Please vote for me it can convince armin to make a video on it. Haha
I can do that, still have both bows :)
@@ArminHirmer I would really like to see that. I just received 2 from Indonesia yesterday and I'm absolutely impressed with the craftsmanship coming from there. Please do this comparison. Maybe Alibow will think about getting into this a Malta archery edition fiberglass bending sipahi bow.
@@ArminHirmer What bow do you recommend for a new archer? I would like 35 to 40lbs maybe? I like old style bows like mongol design. But I would like your opinion 😊.
Too heavy especially for thumb release beginners
nice bow, Armin 👍 😎I'm also a fiberglass horse bow craftsman
nice review.
and i hope that you may add description spec and rating sheet to thiese seasons reviews.
Thanks for this great review
Merci pour cette belle et instructive vidéo. Je suis un papy de 74 ans
et je tirais à l'arc à l'age de è ans. A la fête foraine de Pigale de
Paris. Je vais essayez de me fabriquer un arc ancien avec corne, fibre
de tendon etc. Je suis artiste, sculpteur, inventeur. Une expérience
interessante pour moi. Question: il y a bien 20 ans dans une boutique
d'antiquaire, j'ai acheté un petit arc d'indiens des iles. ?? cela me
semblait étres un piège pour touriste. Mais j'ai acheté car il y avait
une chose qui m'a beaucoup surpris. Il y avait une sorte de petit
bouton avec un trou qui était fixé dans la corde de l'arc. Une sorte de
visière qui a pour but d'augmenter la vision. C'est un principe qui est
bien connue. Mais dans le milieu et grande famille du tir à l'arc, je
n'ai jamais entendu parlé de ce truc de visé ? Je connais la sucette
pour la bouche. Si vous avez des informations ?Merci. Patrick Dupré:

Alibow is taking a while to answer, so I wonder if anyone here could answer what spine, weight and length arrow is recommended for this bow!
(Perhaps out of Alibows bambo arrows?)
How does it compare to the older Ghengis khan model? It seems a bit slower
Don't have the ghengis here, but I know that I like this one more :)
I should have waited lol. I just got a tang Chang an in black btw & it looks amazing.
Looks like a great bow.Looks like it shoots great.
Great Video!
On the basis of this review, Armin, I'm buying this bow- Alibow is selling the bow at a discounted price. Flaxen Saxon.
Hi Armin. Is this bow ok for a beginner? What kind of arrow do you suggest for this one?
Sure. I would go with carbon arrows matching the draw weight you are going for
@@ArminHirmer Thank you!
Okay, its gorgeous.
Would you consider its design similar to the Mughal(Indo Persian) “crab” bows you’ve reviewed?
It is a good looking Shape when you have it at Full Draw. Oh, and the bow sounded very Quiet for the style. What did you think of the Sound? Good luck with Customs.
Always the same with customs here.... Thank you
I love the sound
As a beginner may I ask,when it says 20-50 lb is that how hard you draw the string not lots strings or bows for each poundage.
In your opinion, Mr. Hirmer, would this bow be too loud for hunting, or could it be silenced a bit with string silencers?
Trying to decide between one of these or the Tatar bow(45lbs @28), so any input you'd have would be greatly appreciated!
Will do the job better than tatar
Thank you for a great review, i would buy one right now :))))))
i shoot a 70 lbs compound bow. is there a difference between the way these bows draw in terms of their draw weight or would it be the same as drawing a 30 lbs compound?
Kind of like drawing a compound but not the same
What does f=0.56 mean?
Max draw in relation to length of bow
This is an amazing review! thank you for taking the time to make this video!
I got the old mongol fiberglass bow also by alibow, genghis bow i think they called it. Wonder how it would compare to this new bow! maybe it's an idea for a new video :P a comparison of all the mongol type bows you've had on your videos :D
Cheers from singapore!
Luv the idea Armin you should do it.
Fibre glass! good but original mongol bow was made of horn and other some natural things. Is the both of bows have same accuracy?
Armin10 !!! Thanks @armin hilmer.
What about hand shock? This one bow I've been using has been giving me quite a bit of pain in the bow hand when I shoot so if you have advice on that go ahead. Would this bow be good for, say, 40lb draw?
Sure, with heavy enough arrows
i have one of these and it is fantastic
enjoy
What is your favorite horse bow in 50lb draw under $150? I have a 30lb 51" TopArchery traditional bow I got from Huntingdoor, and I like it, but 30lb is not very much force. I use IRQ Archery carbon 32" x 6.2mm I.D. 7.5mm O.D. 400 spine arrows. What is your recommendation for a 50lb bow for under $150?
I might have to get this one.
Very precisely reviewed.. this Bow reminds me Mongol fiber glass Bow from Alibow..which was my first Traditional Bow I purchsed after watching Armin's review... And i think this one is also the same Bow with upgraded long Siyahs... Should i change the siyahs of my Mongol Alibow? ... 😁😅 And giving 167 fps is too good for a epoxy fiberglass bow.. as i have seen such speed from laminated Bows.
Thank you for watching my friend
The black leather looks fantastic, but I'm concerned it might get very hot in the Australian summer sun, is this likely anything to worry about?
Fiberglass does not mind that much. I would prefer all these bows without leather
Can you recommend this bow on 25lbs to a beginner ?
Yes
Uau (wow). I think this might be my next bow, I love my Fiberglass Tatar by Alibow. Would be awesome to see this Yuan in a higher poundage.
I think even higher # is fine, maybe not so smooth beyond 30"
Debating between Alibow's "Yuan" bow & "Yarha" bow since their now the same price for us in the US, and you've reviewed both, which one would you recommend?
Depends on your draw length. Overall the yuan does the job. If you like the Manchu kick.. yarha
Was bedeutet das mit den 60 Pfund? Darf ich mir keinen stärkeren Bogen bestellen? Ich hätte mich nämlich für den Imperial Strength Bow interessiert. Der geht aber erst bei 80 Pfund los...

Hi Armin, I bought this bow after seeing your video and it has now finally arrived - nice bow! On rewatching your review you made a comment about arrow length at about 6.10 and I was wondering if you could clarify something for me. I know that the Chinese describe arrow length as overall total, but does that also apply to their bow's draw length? For example, do I use an arrow with a western 31" length (minus tip and nock), or do I use an arrow that is 31" overall?
Depends Alibow now measures our way. Otherwise add one to one and a half inch to your arrow length and you will be fine
great looking bow do you live in a castle
Thanks. No :)
Very good review.Thanks
Thank you Rob
Advance Mongol Yuan or Mongol Genghis Khan?? Which is better??
I would go with the mongol (spoiler alert, there is a new version on the way)
@@ArminHirmer ! When will the new version be out?
@@smeekerloyd1 they are just in the final test stage, but even the one which is out is great. The new one will be 2 inches longer
I have a Mongol-Manchu style bow, I have not shot it yet, it's been two years, bow specs are: 65 pounds @ 28, and goes all the way 74 pounds @ 32, 32" arrows: 40 grains each, according to information on the web, arrow speeds are 227 fps @ 50- 100ft, if anyone else has bow like this and shot it can you give some true stats on this bow, I would appreciated, thanks.
Hey Armin, If you have to chose one "Horse bow" from AliBow between this one and the Advance Mnachu Yarha - which one do you think is more universal "enjoyable" shooter?
Thanks
Yuan :)
@@ArminHirmer thank you, if there is another horsebow from them in this price range you would recommend, I will take him 😊
Really nice bow for the price 😊
Thank you
How long is that coupon code good for armin? I get paid friday and want that bow
Sure 4 weeks :) thank you for watching
Thanks !
Are you joerge sprave fan???
He has some good moments :)
@@ArminHirmer let me show you its features!!
I am considering purchasing my 1st bow for learning thumb draw (I used to shoot modern compound bow), and I have narrowed my decision down between this bow (Advanced Mongol Yuan) and the Tibetan Qinghai from Alibow. Which one do you think would be the easiest for someone trying to learn. I know to start at a low draw weight (I think I'll start at 25# at 28"), but since I've never tried either style of bow before it would be nice to hear a professional opinion on what the pros or cons of each style might be, and if you think one would be a superior learning tool. Your videos have all been very helpful, and thank you so much for the content!
P.s. I don't know if it will make a difference but, my draw length with the 3-finger draw is about 28"-29."
Both will serve you well
Great. Maybe I will start with the less expensive one at 25# and get the other one at 30# a couple months from now so that I can practice with both styles and different draw weights. Thank you so much for replying. I watch a lot of instructional channels on RUclips, and most never respond when I ask questions. It shows that you care about helping and teaching those of us that are trying to learn. I've learned a lot watching your videos so thank you so, so much for all of the work you put into teaching and reviewing for everyone! I'm looking forward to learning more!
So you recommend this for full draw with 32-inch arrows? That's what I carry now, and my bow's been cracking very gradually so I need a new one. So I came back to this video to see how well the mongol yuan one can handle that kind of length (on several occasions with the Slavic and thumb release, I've pulled back to my jawbone).
Also how long did it take for this bow to arrive? You ordered a few arrows at once here but if you ordered just the one mongol yuan, how long would it probably be?
I know it doesn't relate to the video but I got a question about draw styles if you dont mind answering?
sure
@@ArminHirmer Have you ever heard of the tertiary or secondary draw style? It's kinda like a pinch draw but you use the pointer, middle, and third finger to assist drawing the bow while also pinching the arrow. You also shoot on the left side of the bow with a right handed draw like Mediterranean. Are they're disadvantageous to this type of draw? I haven't tried it with a heavy bow but I get almost 2 more inches of draw with a lighter bow. Just wanted to see what your opinion was.
@@jarridcarter5001 if I'm not mistaken that would be the way the plains tribes shot there powerful hornbows. But most of the time it was a shorter draw 22"-24". I think personally, my opinion it would be a weaker draw for a heavier draw weight with a full draw 28" or more , mainly because of the egronomics of the draw hand in realitive position of the draw shoulder. On the right side of the bow it resembles the Slavic draw except for pinching with the thumb. In my experience compared to 3 fingers Mediterranean or thumb release my hand doesn't comfortably line up with the bow my draw hand and draw shoulder it feels weaker and less controlable. I'd love to here how it handles with a heavy draw wieght and a full draw. Please keep us informed! The plains Indians seemed quite capable using it though. I love archery history and theory old draw techniques , ways of handling the bow and arrows ect. Ect. Ect.
Very beautiful. Could you provide a source for these arrows?
The short ones are from Bearpaw, the longer carbon I got once from a Chinese supplier
Armin Hirmer Thank you! Merry Xmas!
Hello Armin.
A great review of this bow. I am considering to purchase this myself. Which arrows do you recommend for this bow, with a drawweight of 35?
I am new to this sport.
Thank you for your nice videos.
Greetings from the Netherlands
Hi. Thank you. Get some directly from Alibow, the carbon ones are good
hoi, ik vroeg me af hoe je boog bevalt en watvoor pijlen je erbij gekocht hebt, ik wil er zelf ook een aanschaffen vandaar.
I want that bow
Me too :)
@@ArminHirmer Soon... Soon, it will be mine.... 😶
I just love a short bow that can handle a long draw. Especially at such an affordable price! Also, I was wondering Armin, are bows above 60# illegal in Malta, or do you have to obtain some sort of special permit?
not illegal, you need a licence
Going to have to start building your own :) - Sign me up for a pre order
Also, this bow is alot similar to my nomad bow I currently have - lovely bow enjoyable to shoot and , packs a punch.
Sweet. 👍
Promocode funktioniert nicht! 🤷🏻♂️
Heute hat er funktioniert! 👍
60 lbs...is that just a flat rule? Can it be 60 lbs at 10 inches? :D
داداش ایرانی هستی؟
let me show you it's features
Is it just me or does this bow resemble the Persian crab bow a little
close yes
Why is it forbidden to have a bow over 60 pounds?
Its not forbidden, you just need to register the bow and have a small gun licence
@@ArminHirmer In America they are trying to take our freedom and guns. We will not stand for that in Texas.
I re watched this video today and apparently I gave it a thumbs down by accident before. My apologies. Don't know how that happened. I never give thumbs down to anything on RUclips. So mistake rectified and a thums up.
Anyway, is this the design influenced by the Manchu?
It's an early Mongolian design. Not sure who was first. But the design overall is a bit different
let me SHOW YOU IT'S FEATURES!!!
This looks more like a Mughal bow😮! calling it a yuwan would be unjust😅
You have some terrible customs in your country !!!
