I Have the 40# I had for almost 4 years been using a 30# Horsebow. Last week i wanted a second bow. I ordered this 40 pounder. Never shot with a longbow in my life. But ill get to it. Good revire
They are pretty bows but for me I would spend a little bit less and buy the Phoenix Korean bow, it will probably get more speed out of it, you can go with a 30 pound, it’s super light and you can shoot off for either side, that’s just my opinion what do I know
excellent review..... this is just the sort of comprehensive information and practical testing that we need when looking to buy a bow at this price range . If there was one thing absent on your channel that I think viewers like myself would dearly like to see , it would be a detailed arrow tuning lesson. For novice archers trying to match their arrows to a particular bow or interested in making their own arrows there isn't really much detailed help on the Net . Being able to tell what an arrow flight or where an arrow hits the target or the direction it lays over on the target tells us and selecting the correct spine and point weights and flite profiles etc would be so helpful in improving accuracy and achieving the best arrow match to a bow.
nice arrow flight and except the odd one bounces off the shelf. maybe need slightly higher nocking (even though western archery forum types will say move it down because it flies nock high).
I know they are very light poundage.. but I like how they aren't hitting the bow and bending on release... I believe u call it archers peradox... Or something... I could be way wrong... And the arrows don't bend at all.. and the slow motion flight looks.. very good
It’s a pretty nice looking bow. But a little loud on the 25# and 30# but I really do like the cut and grip on the riser. Take care my friend God Bless and Merry Christmas.
30lbs for me is the sweet spot too. That's when Id like to shoot for a few hours or go on archery trails. Anything more than about 35lbs becomes grueling for long periods of practice.
It's nice to see the occasional bow that's traditional... (The westerners) than from what we're used to seeing from you, have you ever reviewed the $500+ bows from the main Boyer's from the US?
Armin you seem to have a ton of experience in testing bows. May I suggest 2 types of videos that I am missing in your channel? 1. Would be great to get a video about bow material. I see Fiberglass, bending Fiberglass, laminated bows, pure wood sticks.... Can you maybe compare longevity, weight, shooting speed, draw graphs.... 2. How about the bow of the year? Maybe even best Recurve, best hungarian, korean,.... The Oscars for bows from you? Something like that would help a lot making purchase decisions.
Greetings! Im going to have one of those soon and this review has been very helpful! I was wondering what kind of arrows I should use with the Kite Longbow (mine will be the 30# version). Sorry for the noob question, any help is greatly appreciated :)
And in.the end I got it!! I was suprised by the accuracy I got at 20 yards! I still got to learn properly how to shoot a longbow (barebow recurve is my main jam 😀) but my first impression is very positive!
Buongiorno visto la sua esperienza Puoi indicarmi un longbow in commercio di buona fattura avevo pensato al Falco vintage Trophy lei cosa ne pensa Grazie
I think it's time for another rating system change. Almost every bow you review is close to perfect. Maybe you should be more strict, or add a point more to bows that are really exceptional. Just a thought 😁 A good review in any case.
Same design , those bows should stack at the same draw length, if the 40 lbs stacks at 28" the others should stack too , it's a matter of the string getting closer to the 90° angle with the limb .
165f/s is top armin yes is very hard for cool shoots :( 25" draw near 35# :) is my max on my english longbow 78"= 1.98 meters but in if wood I thing the bow is strong=rue +++ , because 50# at 27" draw=allonge :) I had it custom made !!! for me by john minit wood come usa north some years 2013 :) I leave the string on it so the bow is strung to be more flexible :) BE CAREFUL never leave it in the sun it will break!!!!!!!! I lost 2 beautiful Turkish alibows :( bandaged in the sun to stick a grip = 2 circumflex accents :((((( one arm bends completely!!! here is your examination of the 3 arches enlightens me a lot thank you :)
He usually does not review the really bad ones, just gives notes to the bowmaker, usually... He talks about this in some of his videos... So many good bows,, so little time, there has to be a good reason to review one of the bad ones...
@@ArminHirmer I think you have to review a bow on the class it's in, you cannot rate a self-bow with a $1000 bow fairly, shooting build etc, etc So in there class, price to a degree you will get better or worse, so a stick with a string reviewed as a stick with a string me be as goods as that stick gets so it would be a 10/10 for that class.. Most reviews I've seen seem.very fair!
@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 if you watch literally any video of his he'll answer that question out loud at one point or another. He prefers thumb release btw.
Just bought this bow in 30# for a friend to start shooting.
So very nice to shoot, very easy, little vibrations in hand, builds confidence

Bought the 35# after this reveiw. Great and silent bow , shooting with it in the forest on stumps.. , need to practice on how I release the string.

thank you. I am on the arrow topic, its just quite big :)
Just bought one, feels amazing ✌
Great bow, I wish I could say the same about my skills 🤣🤣

Close to Center shot.

Hello Sir! Have you ever tested the Buck Trail Antelope hunting bow? Im looking into it and need some feedback
It's nice to see the occasional bow that's traditional... (The westerners) than from what we're used to seeing from you, have you ever reviewed the $500+ bows from the main Boyer's from the US?
nope, if someone will send me, I will do a review :)
Armin you seem to have a ton of experience in testing bows. May I suggest 2 types of videos that I am missing in your channel?

2. How about the bow of the year? Maybe even best Recurve, best hungarian, korean,.... The Oscars for bows from you? Something like that would help a lot making purchase decisions.
good ideas
Was thinking the same thing. A bow of the year (or simply a top 10 bows video for several categories) would be amazing.
The sound that bow makes sounds like my Bear Grizzly 45# recurve . I have string silencers on mine for hunting.
Reflex deflex long bow 😍 i shoot a #60 bear montana. A real treat on a hunting trip.

Buongiorno visto la sua esperienza Puoi indicarmi un longbow in commercio di buona fattura avevo pensato al Falco vintage Trophy lei cosa ne pensa Grazie
Great video! Please test 35#!
I'm trying to get into archery. I wonder if this bow can be shipped to the US. I really like the look of it. Thank you for the review!
I'm in Arkansas and I know of all kind's people who make Bows just look up Traditional Archery of that what your looking for.

A good review in any case.
i just bought the 35 pound.
Same design , those bows should stack at the same draw length, if the 40 lbs stacks at 28" the others should stack too , it's a matter of the string getting closer to the 90° angle with the limb .
yet they dont, I guess the poundage has some influence on that
After seeing the three draw curves, I would believe it .

Hi boss, I really like and admire your amazing contents, can you please review, if possible, the White Wolf Wind Warrior Max P.
Many thanks in-advance
thank you. I will do instantly if a company will send me this bow :)
It's a beauty!!
Impressive, very nice
Why are almost all bows 10/10, even the cheap ones? What do you give for a real good bow than?
He usually does not review the really bad ones, just gives notes to the bowmaker, usually... He talks about this in some of his videos... So many good bows,, so little time, there has to be a good reason to review one of the bad ones...
wait for Tuesday... a not finished review will come. cheap does not mean bad build quality

🤣🤣🤣
Blast it!
That's kinda mean😂
Sneaky you know what😂
From Malta archery... Well then... Good for you sir
why that?
@@ArminHirmer sorry . Nvm... What is the name of YOUR company again...
@@strydyrhellzrydyr1345 It was Malta Archery since one year ago, now I don't own any company anymore
@@ArminHirmer oh... Wait... But don't u own that range... Or is it rented.. or???
@@ArminHirmer sorry.. I thought u still had the company
i think slick stick is better
of course but almost double the price
@@ArminHirmer what you like better to shoot 3 finger longbow or thumb release horse bow? I think 3 finger is easier to aim
@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 if you watch literally any video of his he'll answer that question out loud at one point or another. He prefers thumb release btw.
Pistol handle,centre shot string, arrow shelve it feels like first plugged in Bob Dylan concert all over again 🤨
