I have to questions ..

#1. Where can you buy bows, like the one he uses, does he manufacture bows for sale ?..

#2. When I visit my family in Hungary is there a chance to attend archery classes with him ?..

[szmako]

@MandarinFirefly Go to Kaposmérő, Somogy Megye, Hungary, there you can pratice or even buy a bow like his... P.S.: In addition, Kaposmérő is his headquarters!

[The95Genni]

Quite fast, but you can See that He shoot a glasfibre bow. No real Archer, who has a handmade selfbow or real composite bow just Throw the bow on the Ground, After Shooting...

[treemarks]

@The95Genni - they don't come more real than him. In any case he makes his own bows, they are synthetic because they last longer and you can throw them on the ground, or fall from your horse and they survive, but this is not what the video is about. It's about stance and attitude and a way of life.

[xbladerunner]

@The95Genni

Uh yeah and I suppose you are a real Archer. I think not. If you were you would not even be making a comment like that at all.

[GlidingArt99]

@The95Genni I was just wondering that the way he threw the bow makes you realise how much of a fighter he really is. i would never thow my bow like that'cause its art for me...(though I have a type that has his (Kassai's) trademark on it so I guess it would survive.But its not just art for him, its his life his fight his everything. He believes in archery, he lives in this, he is a fighter... And fighters could not be cautios about their bows that would have them killed in battle.

This is the Result of Chuck Norris loosing his virginity in Hungary

[csontapu]

imagine this rate of fire combined with 20000 angry hun warriors from horseback, they even dont need to sheeth their sabres or poleaxes the rain of deadly arrows annahilates or flees all enemy

[mesmerino]

He must have some Elven blood in his heritage.

[ArabianArcher]

What is the thing he is shooting at, I know its a target but any specific name?

[treemarks]

@ArabianArcher - no ! ordinary hay target .....

[ramans11]

Why does he squat as he picks up the next arrow?

[treemarks]

@ramans11 - read comments from before "it's part of the horseback archery practice ... it mimics the rise and fall of a galloping horse. Also it is significantly more difficult to practice fast loading and shooting while doing that as well ... I would think it raises the stakes quite a bit .."

[CombatArchery]

@ramans11 pratice for horse archery

[blackfeatherarchery]

Nice, 

[SushiMaster82]

Would it be faster if you draw an arrow along with the bow string?

[GlowRUS]

what the bow u use?

[treemarks]

@GlowRUS  - He is using one of his own models (he is a bowyer), a Hun asymetrical bow at around #40 .

[mrbigpd]

why the hell you don't use a quiver??? this is stupid!

[treemarks]

@mrbigpd - what do you mean exactly ? He is using a quiver when riding to carry 60+ arrows. But whenever he is shooting he is holding in his hand exactly what is required. Drawing from the quiver takes more time and is not practical in horseback archery since you are changing your position on the horse and this affects the riding part. You can see in other videos the use of quiver which is always in the break between rounds.

[treemarks]

@mrbigpd - as for your last remark, it seems you are implying you could do it better?

You know .... he is an internationally acclaimed Master and holder of numerous records.

I suggest to choose better words and a more polite approach next time.

[mrbigpd]

@treemarks

of corse it can be done better!

congrats' 'bout the records!

lots of people acclaimed some leaders along history, that does not mean they are doing the right thing.

I am NOT SURPRISED the way he THROWS the bow in the last 2 sec of the vid. shows ALL the respect for the bow.....

[treemarks]

@mrbigpd - you are absolutely right, but I believe he does what he does for himself, not for people to like him/it or not. It's his life. For some reason you feel challenged about him .... go and meet him and have a true opinion for the man. I met him, read his books, bought his bows and practiced with him and I really appreciate the experience.

[ArpadZ20]

@mrbigpd This is how he gets off 12 shots in 17.8 seconds, on horseback, and hits all 12 thrown disks.

By the time YOU reach to quiver-get arrow-pull out-move to bow... you would have 2 possibly 3 stupid arrows in you.

[sompret]

@mrbigpd

*Ahem*

The huns historically took a bunch of arrows from the quiver and held the arrows that way using their fingers for faster shooting, while on horseback for that matter. They and we aren't elves like Legolas.

If you want stupid, go consult a physics major about how and why shooting multiple arrows at once will reduce the power of every arrow to a mere pea shooter.

[blakfalcon1]

very nice but errmm whats with the tea bagging action? :P

[treemarks]

@blakfalcon1 - it's part of the horseback archery practice ... it mimics the rise and fall of a galloping horse. Also it is significantly more difficult to practice fast loading and shooting while doing that as well ... I would think it raises the stakes quite a bit ... try it !

[superdarkpie]

@treemarks its cuz he's a badass, he teabags his enemies WHILE shooting at them.

[TheRomanianSoldier]

@superdarkpie

With a sniper i will make him to dance for me!

[hirsutesimia]

@erihama Does your 11 year old son shoot a bow of comparable poundage to Kassai? Is he as accurate at that range?

[erihama]

@hirsutesimia I do not know Kassias bows but guesss its 34 to 37 lbs my sons is 21 lbs we are makeing a Samurai hibread bows soon that will be up there in lbs

for hitting the target my son if he is on his game can hit bulls eyes 5 time out of 6 now and he can do it jumping 3foot 3 and in mid flight still hit the bulls eyes as per our last 3 videos take a look

[CombatArchery]

@hirsutesimia what he shoots 20# bow

[treemarks]

@CombatArchery : # 41 if I remember correctly ...

[djamolodine]

show us the target

[ember1920]

Mikor elkezdetem ijászkodni nekem sok íjászattal, lovasíjászattal foglalkozó személy azt mondta,hogy az íjat ne dobjuk a földre,ne ütögessük, hanem vigyázunk rá. Igaz velem is volt hasonló, de akkor terepíjász versenyen voltam és azelőtt esett és a domboldalon megcsúsztam és legurultam íjastól tegezestől.

[misper34]

This dude is awesome. I wish that I had half of the skill that he does.

[TheChubaKiller]

That was pretty slick reloading, nice and smooth.

[treemarks]

it's just a warm-up practice, but yes, he is practicing what normally happens on horseback :)

[Soviless99]

he's mimicking horse archery on foot, shooting to his left, he moves up at down to mimic his movement while the horse under him gallops. i think it's between when the horse's hooves hit the ground he's at the bottom of his bending movement and when the horse lifts its hooves again he would be at the top of his bending movement, that is when he releases the arrow, please correct me if i am wrong

[MrLaurence007]

lajos kassai how did u learn to shoot like that and i just bought a mongol horse bow from toth, wat shooting style do u reccomend me to do to become as good as you

[Oldm4nHUN]

Ez jó gyakorlat. Kiválóan erősíti a belső combizmokat. Lajos a lovasíjászat tanítási folyamatában alkalmazza ezt a gyakorlatot mielőtt lóra engedne. Beszarsz tőle 10 km terepfutás után. :)

[Lightningz1]

Edit Edit: 12 arrows in 22 seconds.

[Supercukr]

@Lightningz1 lol man, read before you post :D anyway he is hell fast

[Lightningz1]

EDIT: 12 arrows in 32 seconds.

[Lightningz1]

10 arrows in 32 seconds, that is damn fast.

[aanderson66]

i doubt he worries about spooking deer! he could hit them 10 times before they are out of range. a semi auto recurve!

[FriarTuck1961]

Superb.

5/5

[DumFrickProductions]

this guy reminds me of Rangers from Ranger's Apprentice (book)

[MrLaurence007]

@DumFrickProductions i no aye

[addancserpant]

awesome

[UFarcher]

if you listen carefully you can hear the whizzing of the arrows!!!! awesome

[Madrussianarcher]

Hallowed Be Thy Name!

[CombatArchery]

12 arrows in 22 seconds ...did i get it right...

Much Respect to Kassai

[Bamvizoolakaer]

Wow...This guy's fast.

He puts out, like an arrow every 2 seconds.

I can do it in like...5 or 6. lol.

[Smuta]

robinhoodfromhun: A videón látható személy nem Kassai Lajos, így akár dobálhatja is az íjat.

There is no thumbring in the style of Kassai, and we (a right handed shooter) shoot off the left side of the bow.

[robinhoodfromhun]

Le a kalappal előtte. Ha annak idején nem kezdi el, valószínűleg én sem lennék ma íjász.

Azért muszáj egy kicsit elégedetlenkednem....rendben van hogy ő készítette azt az íjat, de így eldobni....

[Smuta]

Ki kell, hogy javítsam magam, lehet, hogy tévedtem. Bocs.

[treemarks]

for horseback archery the arrow is always on the outside of the bow , people who shoot from the right side gallop the course end-to-start... but for plain archery, there are many styles in the world ....

[wwood14]

For a right handed shooter, do you guys shoot off of the left or right side of the bow?? It seems most shoot off of the right while the English tradition is to shoot off of the left..??

[Trophybow1]

It depends what style do you release. Fingers or thumbring. With tumbring it is right side but with fingers it is usually the left side.
