that sounds interesting. would you share how to shoot it without a string?

@@iyoo1 yes I would. I am open to any platform you want to use my friend. we can do a video chat or whatever you feel like. check out my tong-ah playlist on my youtube. I am shooting various objects as well with no string. 🙏

@@iyoo1 I would be happy to brother. I am open to any platform you want. We can do a video chat if you want to. Check out my Tong-ah playlist on my RU-vid page as well. that is a good place to start. I shoot all kinds of things from tong-ah' like tranquilizer darts. 🙏

yes, i call it 'Manchu Kick'. one of my favorite part shooting Manchu bows. :)

i used to shoot 50 and 60 lbs. it takes time to build your body up. :)

good to hear. wish i started doing this earlier. ^_^;;

@@iyoo1 Better late than never. Would be helpful if both my thumbs where the same size, need more ring's.

i shoot off my hand. arrow pass is too high for my grip on this bow. i tend to have arrow very close to my bow hand. :)

it's same bow. the only difference is the handle is reinforced with carbon fiber so it will last longer, i hope. ^_^

hello~ thanks ^0^

thanks. trying to be more steady. :)

Ali Express, 6 x 33in wood or bamboo arrows with feather fletching's for £18-£24.

@@palmer3977 too short for me

@@palmer3977 thats too short for me. I would want more like 34 or 35 inch arrows which are a lot more expensive. also im not buying arrows from aliexpress

I just looked up how much long Manhu arrows are on AliBow's site, and good golly, with shipping and as I recall with all three times I've shopped from them, the really long wait times, those arrows are expensive

you need long arrows that are heavy and stiff enough for the manchu bow.

i have made many arrows. making arrows and playing with resin is fun :)

@@iyoo1 i agree! making arrows is super fun! you should do a video!

i don't know what type of bows you like but if this helps. Alibowshop.com they have heavier poundage. not many options but you can checkout their website. Daylitearchery.com also carry some 70~80# bows. check their website. MRbows.com this is one i got my Tiron from. different designs and more options here. Afarchery thehy have some more options than other websites. many kinds of fiberglass bow in higher poundage. hope this info helped. :)

​@@iyoo1Thanks a lot.

i can't do it. i need more time to build up my body. ^_^;;

yeah... not there yet. i'm barely pulling about 28" to 29" at this point. but, thank you ^_^;;

thanks. yes, male style thumb ring saves my thumb for sure. this is resin mix and i have tested on my bow that's about 110#. so far, no cracks or anything. plastic thumb ring you can get in the market, some of them can break if you pull over 70# so be aware. also thanks for the concern. i am being careful and checking myself each session. :)

Misko rellay makes beautiful bows. ^0^

MR Bows are beautiful.

thank you. took some time to get here. just need to keep going. ^_^

i just tried and it works. mrbows.com/

thank you :)

thank you. it is a life long journey. :)

i don't. i'm sure you can get medieval war bow arrows online. for me i like Alibow's manchu arrows i get. heavy enough (1438 grains) and stiff (100 spine). also 34 to 35" long. ^_^

@@iyoo1 thank you !!

thank you :)

good to hear different opinions. i tend to like carbon because they are stiff enough for my bows. i shoot heavy bows so i need stiff arrows.

you need a waist cable. i'll put a video up when i can. :)

thanks :)

Thanks

thank you :)

they are 32~33".

@@iyoo1 today with 10.5 inch 54 gram arrow with 60# korean bow bow just unstrung itself. Is khatra must for short arrow? With 35-40 gram 18 inch arrow bow was ok.

@@ThatIndianArcher i don't think so. khatra is just a technique. if this keeps happening you want to see if there is any twist on the limb or at the end of siyah. i'm using khatra with all my bows. no issues. :)

@@iyoo1string was slightly offset on upper limb. Next day my bow break during stringing.

@@ThatIndianArcher r u ok? hope you didn't get hurt.

no. but if you happen to live close i rather make a custom one.

thanks ^_^

which bow? if you are talking about Tiron that's from Mrbows.com if you are talking about Monarq that's from Daylitearchery.com Tiroon is 60" and Monarq is 52" in length.

@@iyoo1 Thank you sir!

thanks, sir. hope you are doing well :)

@@iyoo1 It's been a hot minute since we've shot together... hope you are doing well.

this is Big Woods Goods in GA. i shoot myself most of the time and some of my friends join me once in a while. i know there are some good ranges in LA. i have been one of them many years ago. ^_^

no. it's just a simple tube quiver with fabrics inside in order to hold arrows.

this is 60" version. max out at 34", 158lbs.

agree. it's difficult and the reward is big. ^_^ Tiron is 158lbs at 34". at my draw it's about 131lbs.
