i love archery nd even use one of kassais bows. The man is such a brilliant and noble reminder of the beauty of horse archery and the skill of the magyars. Only thing i wanna knw is how can u practise horse archery when u dnt hav a horse yet, like what can u do to prepare urself for horse archery before u get ur horse coz we renting out a place now nd will be getting some large land soon etc... peace

Are they riding bareback?

@mdssdp If I recall correctly, Kassi typically recommends around 30lbs for actual horseback archery. I have one of his bow in 60lbs and it is great for shooting from foot but would be difficult on horseback (at least for a novice like me).

can anyone tell me the draw weight of these bows?

At about .035, did I see 'Tomas' punch his horse in the neck? If I did then that is a pretty shitty thing to do!

@kror23 I saw a special on Yabusame where a man practiced by shooting while standing on one foot on a rope tied between trees so he could get better balance. Maybe that would help?

@kror23 mechanical bull riding?
