Great review! I ordered the Warrior 53" 35# two weeks ago. The wait is the hardest part !
Just got mine this week after watching the review. It's a really nice bow, my only gripe is the leather on the string grooves makes a noise when I'm just getting to full draw that sounds a lot like cracking wood and is a bit off putting. Hopefully it goes away once I have shot it a bit more. Thanks for the in depth review.
Usually it goes away after a few shots
Great review, I have two Freddie bows and they are soft, powerful and very pretty. For thumb shooting they are the best. Keep it up, good videos.
재밋게 잘봤습니다~ 한국은 활의 민족입니다! 역사적으로 유서가 깊지요. 외국분이 리뷰를 해주시니 너무 반갑네요. 한국의 다른 종류의 활도 기대가 됩니다. 건강하세요~
Yupp.. gonna put it on my wishlist this year as my flight shoot bow
i have seen almost all of your videos. This is one of your best!
just a little strip of stetchy thin insulating tape to pinch the nocks, and they won't fall off and can still easily be replaced - thanks for another great review!
yeah I know, but hey :D
This looks like the best Korean bow I've seen so far. I like it 😁
Another nice bow looks like a bunch of other bows in the same class but I think there all pretty nice. The glove looks like it would be great how did it really fill for you.
Maybe, a comparison with the Majestic from daylite could be interesting.... for the same price range... ;)
agree..
Yes, the second you were showing the new shooting gloves, I knew something is going to be happening, and yes. Ah Armine~~ lol
After watching this amazing review i have just purchased it at #50(53"version).
Now for some new arrows....
Any recommendations for spine/arrow weight as it gets a bit confusing.
Thanks in advance
Korean bows are so much fun to shoot
Hopefully I will get a 100 lb monarch soon
A beautiful bow and excellent performance in a reasonable poundage- this bow is sexy! ☺️👍🏻
Thank you for the review, Armin!
Sweet shooter nice looking bow! I'd like to see how the longer bow reacts 33" draw YES!!!! Thanks for another great review!
I actually have a 32.5 inch draw.
@@loveforever5687 me also I'm 6'3" and 245lbs I love turkish bows but can't quite get to my full draw with them. But my Sai Cai from AF archery I can draw it fully to 34" at almost 70 lbs. So you can actually draw more than your optimal draw length with the right technique and practice. Shoot straight!!!
Gloves like those are seemingly hard to come by, I try to find similar gloves like that here just can't, unless go thru a custom leather crafter. Might have to get a bow from Freddie Archery just to get the glove. lol But as always, great review.
If you are in the US, I would check out Ravenswood leather "Yumi glove". While not at all like the Yumi style, it is almost exactly the same as the one from Freddie. (I have it and love it)
@@kennethhan7841 Cool, I'll look them up. Thanks for the info.
I highly suspect Warrior/Dragon is the "affordable" version of Authentic KTB I/II with the same core material: bamboo. Freddie should confirm.
I will see when I test the KTB II
HI Armin. I see you tried a new color grading. Does looks nice, I like how the shadows have more details. I would just with if there were more contrast on mid-tons to highlights so that we could better see the arrow flight. Maybe something in between this and other videos?
yeah, still playing around to find the right balance :D
@@ArminHirmer Yes it is very nice! I will give my feedback always when I think is pertinent. Have fun with it! cheers.
Looks like generates speed
and it's pretty. I like how it looks on fulldraw, And you shoot it well. Appear you need new arrows. Good morning and enjoy your day Armin. ☕🍰👊🤩
I think I like this too...
You shoot so many Eastern-style bows....what is your favorite style? Not brand but, Turkish, Korean, etc?
I'd like to know his very favorite bow ever ☺️
I am working on a top 5 or top 10 video :)
Yes@@Veronica.John10-10
@@ArminHirmer that would be a great video. I will look forward to it 👍
Nice bow!! already have one. 45# 48"
beautifull bow, im thinking of getting one but im having a hard time to decide between the dragon and this one, what is by your opinion the better bow?
Both great
Thanks Armin! What's the difference between the Warrior and the Dragon (other than the decorations/color)? Do you think this bow has no stacking because it has a lower draw weight than the other bows you have shot and tested? Do you have another Korean bow of the same draw weight to compare it to? Also - How does this bow compare to a YMG in smoothness of draw, and speed? I'm planning to get either a custom Authentic KTB2 at 90#, a YMG at 90#, a Hwarang at 90#. I would love for you to do a review of the Hwarang. I love the look of the "Authentic KTB2" the most, but does the extra wrapping (Birch bark) actually slow down the bow compared to these "Naked" bows?
At 90# I think the birch does not do anything :) i still would go with the YMG even if the KTB2 looks better
@@ArminHirmer what's faster a Warrior or a YMG at the same weigh (eg 40#)? would love a direct comparison with the same arrows. I think Warrior should be faster at 40#. YMG only makes sense to buy over 55#. I think I'm going to get a Hwarang at 90# and a warrior at 55#. I wonder which will shoot faster,
look like taste 🍷
How similar is this to the Freddie Black Shadow? I just got a Black Shadow and this looks similar (with different handle etc of course). I see from the catalog that the stats look similar. I only ask because the Warrior is so beautiful, I want one. Haha.
I think the difference is in the siyahs, but just slightly
@@ArminHirmer Great to know. Thank you!
I finally got mine after 4 weeks of wait, but it came with twisted limb... Does someone know if this model has a carbon core? If this is the case then I will have to use a heat gun...
No heat gun needed
which one is smoother to draw, the Majesty or the Warrior?
The Warrior for me
Seems like a ver nice bow. I like the shape, and the performance 😊.
Is that a Freddy Archery banner in the background next to the Malta Archery banner😁?
hehe yes, Freddie sent it, so I hung it up for the video
My Koc Knocks are just breaking. Inner part remains in the shaft and I have problems with getting it out. I lose one almost every training :(
mein go out out fully, this breaking off happens with my U nocks from Vermil :)
@@ArminHirmer Oh no, if Vermil has similar issues then there's no alternative :(
BTW I was going to visit you in Malta, but I was forced to postpone my vacation few times already due to pandemic. Maybe next year it will finally happen.
My kocNocks come out almost every time, I don't use them at the moment. Some simply stay on the string while the rest of the arrow goes forward. Really nasty. I will try some thin tape, maybe they will last longer, but Mamluk needs to improve them a lot.
@@lulustocke8251 I drilled mine to fit my string. Which I believe is not thick.
@@ChristophShyper that's not the problem, they fit well on the string. They don't stay inside the shaft. They are a little tiny bit too thin, or the material wears down too soon.
👏🇮🇪
Shame they added their ugly logo to this pretty bow
Agree, one should always have the option with or without
umm ... dude ... that glove goes on the hand holding the bow, to protect it from the arrow and fletching, seeing as your hand is the "arrow shelf" or "arrow rest".
Lets see ... 40 pounds at 31 inches ... you lose roughly on average 2.5 pounds per inch under the rated draw length. At 28 inch you're 3 inches under, so will lose about 7.5 pounds draw weight, giving you roughly 32 ~ 32.5 pounds.
Not legal to hunt big game with in any where in North America that I know of. There are a couple Eastern states, (Maine is one of them, I forget the other at ths monent,) that require a minimum of 35 pounds, but the rest require a minimum of 40 pounds for whitetail deer, and 45 or 50 for larger such as Elk, Moose and bear, where available.
Note that the minimums ARE AT THE USER'S DRAW LENGTH, in every jurisdiction in North America. (I haven't checked the hunting regulations anywhere in Central or South America.)
I am deformed and have a short draw length. 24.5 inch with a conpound bow and roughly 21 ... maybe 22 inch using any other type of vertical bow. (different anchor point)
My 70 pound draw at 28 inches takedown recurve has a 47.8 pound draw weight at my draw length.
I bought the 70 pounder so I would have a bow that is legal for me to hunt with.
Hi Steve, this glove is specially made for the draw hand :)
