? 145m? the bow seemed to be weak...

[jakpradere]

it is a 55# saluki hornbow:do you try a true hornbow?

I shoot 145m also with a modern traditional 30# korean bow :no problem

[daryush55]

Thanks. How is it with stacking / hand shock / arrow speed?

[jakpradere]

Hi

no stacking...I can go further but it is not necessary

no hand shock: I hold the bow with 2 fingers

arrow speed:??I have buy a speedmeter and I will try to measure

[jakpradere]

Hi daryush55

with hornbow try this:1)you string the bow then let rest the bow 10mn 2)then shoot 4 arrows then let rest the bow 20mn 3)then shoot 60 arrows :10X6 arrows 3 to 4s each arrows so your bow is OK4) you can shoot as you want

Hi Jak, one question for you... how long are your bows, and what is your draw length? When I order a hornbow some time in the future, I'd like it to be short, but still be able to have a drawlength of around 32 inches.

[jakpradere]

Hi Tykketykke

I have five hornbows ranging from 48" to 62" my draw lengh is 32" at least

@daryush55 arrow speed is 67m/s with 55lb. sample test in korean military Lab.

@jakpradere Try a chronograph, much cheaper, much easier

Hey PM me and we can discuss your choosing an asian bow.

[TYKKETYKKE]

The one you shoot here, is that your Yuan-dynasty (Mongolian) hornbow that you also shot in your library? How long is it?

Sorry for all the questions, but currently I'm wondering whether It's best to get a long bow or a short bow. Long bows are better for target archery and hunting due to less stack and such, but I've always wanted a shorter bow (possibly less than 50 inches in length...)

[TYKKETYKKE]

Sounds good. I'd really like the mongolian style hornbow. It's my favorite design. Your Yuan-dynasty hornbow... how long is that?

[TYKKETYKKE]

And when I say bows, I mean your hornbows! :)
