New bow: TRYING oak ridge bamboo sada (horsebow) for [FIRST TIME] 

no problem, I still really like this bow, and as someone who grew up shooting the more technical modern style recurve bows with carbon fiber limbs/aluminum riser it's nice to just forget all that fancy stuff and focus on shooting, archery as it should be ;)

Glad you like :) and Merry Christmas!

couldn't agree more, I need to find time to make up the wooden arrows for it

glad you like the video :)

Thanks so much for your comment :) I do have some future archery video ideas, the weather will have to get a bit better tho ;)

Glad you like it :)

Thank you, and thanks for the sub!

yep, I will be trying shooting on the right side at some time, the only reason I didn't here was because my arrows were falling apart and I didn't want to end up completely ruining that set because I need it for my modern archery gear, I will be making some more arrows when work allows me the time, then I will try :)

@@IodoDwarvenRanger Right as i recall you use aluminium arrows right? yeah aluminium arrows do bends a lot well the one i've tried that is, try carbon mixed with fiber, been using it a lot it's quite sturdy, also look for the spine chart, because different lbs and draw lenght affect what how much spine in an arrow you need. Also that burning sensasion in your bow hand, i just found out recently how to avoid it. even if you shoot on right side you'll still feel it, and i do got some scratch from it too, the way to avoid it is well... first thing is right hand, second try holding your arrow in your bow hand with your thumb and let it slide of the side of your thumb when you release instead of that soft part of your hand i don't know the name.

* the upper side part of your thumb not the lower one

@@annoyingmouse799 Thanks for the info, but I'll be making a set of traditional wooden arrows to go with my kit, and I've never had a problem with the "burning sensation" while shooting, the problem I had in this video was that the fetching came off the arrow and stabbed into my hand, this is because the glue is old and those arrows needed re-fetching (I've since done that)

@@IodoDwarvenRanger i miss heard that my bad

It's not mine, it belongs to my grandparents, my yard is tiny :(

good advice, I might try it, thank you :)

Yeah thanks :)

I don't really know, I've never measured it but the horse-bow was advertised as 30Ibs when I bought it, and the modern re-curve bow feels at least 5ibs stronger, sorry I can't give a more technical answer :o

@@IodoDwarvenRanger Ok. i know when i looked on the website the horse bow was available from 25 to 55 lbs draws. I was just curious.

@@shinjofox NP :) You were probably expecting me to tell you a higher number LOL

@@IodoDwarvenRanger No. The only bow i have is about 35lbs. If you are only shooting for fun or for a LARP , SCA etc... you don't need a heavy 100+lb bow.

@@shinjofox I only really do archery for fun and because it's awesome so I don't need to worry about needing a higher poundage :)
