@@agamagreen I'm potentially looking at my next bow and wondered what your recommendations are? I have a 55" bow atm but want something shortermaybe around 48 to 50". What do you recommend?
@ There are so many awesome bows out there… do you love a particular shape, like Tatar or Turkish or Scythian? Shall the bow have string bridges? Long siyahs or not? The SiCai is lovely, for sure, but much longer than 50“… All Turkish bows (I have) shoot awesome and are supporting Khatra movement. These bows vary in length. My shortest bow is the Xerxes Mini (max draw is 28“), followed by the Short Sipahi+. The KTBs shoot great, too, have a length of around 50“ and are not that expensive, if you go for a Kaya for example. The Khan by Paragon has 51“ length, but is also great (no string bridges). Yes, that’s the selection for bows up to 50 or 51“: Turkish bows (several bowyers), Xerxes mini by Lukasz Nawalny, KTBs (several bowyers) and the Khan by Paragon. ☺️
@@Slingshotsbowsandknifes-tm4ev It’s my pleasure! ☺️🙏🙏 The SiCai bows are Ming dynasty inspired (1368-1644, the Golden Horde). Indeed, Wiki clarifies, that the Golden Horde was named by the Europeans as ‘Tatars’, since they didn’t understand the differences between the Golden Horde and the ‘original’ Tatar people, living mainly in Tataros and Belarus… That’s why the Tatar bows and Ming bows look so similar. I think, that the Golden Horde, who has moved from China to Europe has ‘exported’ this bow design, but this is only my opinion 😁
@@miguelveratraditionalarche9374 ☺️Thank you so much, dear Miguel! 😁🙏🙏 These arrows are too heavy, but sound good ✌️😄 Keep up the fun! Best wishes to you and your family!
@@miguelveratraditionalarche9374 Hi Miguel, I have shot arrows while snow was laying around, but I don’t practice archery while it’s snowing. I don’t see well, since the snowflakes hit my glasses 👊😅
I noticed that your bowstring was pressed against your thick coat, and even deformed. Would this affect the accuracy of archery? If your coat is thicker, will it affect the accuracy of the arrow? This is a question I would like to know, because I will face this problem in the future. Thank you!
Great video! Thank you🤗

@@OleksandrSaliuchuck It’s my pleasure! ☺️🙏
Thanks you for the detailed review!!! These bows look quite a lot like big Tatar bows.

@@agamagreen I see. Thank you for the explanation Agama!! 😊
Absolutely Fantastic comparison. Haha I shoot my white ice SiCai #43@28" with 10.5 grain arrow. 😅.
Hey Melanie you are the Best. 🏹✨️

Interesting. Not tried a sicai yet although a lot of people speak highly about them.
@@KTBIOM These are very nice bows, indeed!
👊🥰
Melanie have you ever shot arrows while it's snowing?

Hallo Agama,
was ist das für ein Handschutz, den du an der Bogenhand verwendest?
@@schtim02 Hallo Schtim, das ist ein selbst entwickelter Daumenschutz aus Cordovanleder ☺️
Viele Grüße!
hallo,
SiCai nicht fast flight oder D97 Sehne ?
@@laurentmeiller5171 Hallo Laurent, die SiCai Bögen haben je eine Dacron Sehne, also kein Fastflight.
Viele Grüße!
