Only two ppl are known to be able to draw a 200lb Warbow. Joe Gibbs and Mark Stretton. 200lbs is obviously a monster bow but to open heavy bows you have to use a different technique that makes it easier to draw heavy. I am 45, 5”8 and 155lb (70kg) and draw a 113@28” bow on my channel. (You can check in case you think I am talking crap) Yes, it takes strength but the correct technique helps a lot for heavy bows.
Stretton has not been able to pull bows past 150lb in over 15 years. He only pulled 200lb for the 2004 Quinnes record once and that basically broke him. There are 3 other guys training with 180-195lb bows in UK nut to Joe is currently the only man with proof.
Im sure 4 time World Champ Brian Shaw, would prefer it to be fraised "Brian Shaw or Eddie Hall" given Eddie Hall is what only won it once? "Thor" im sure would also give to differ on that one!
i was already surprised you were able to string it indeed, btw check Joe Gibbs channel he is able to draw over 200lb bows but his form is not what you use to see in everydays archers so perhaps the secret is in a different pulling technic
I haven’t seen the video yet but I’m gonna guess that you struggle with it just a bit. I’m glad that you got one- after the video showing that one I figured you would have one soon.
The hunting videos are good but the 200 lb bow videos are hilarious. Of seen 2 guys draw 200, Joe Gibbs being one. I forgot the name of the other but he was English also.
I hate to say it but you are using the totally incorrect for to try and pull the bow. It should be held way above the shoulders and drawn down using the larger back muscles. Look it up in old historic texts or even on RU-vid. There is a smaller Asian guy that's shoots old school 160-180 war bows. It's all form at this poundage
"yeah I'm probably not the only one that wishes your dad was, so..." might me the most elite thing I've ever heard lolololol. Truck is actually sick though for real
Great video. War Bow is a beast. The draw technique is not the standard rotational or linear draw. Look for videos. It involves the legs and back. look forward to seeing the next installment
Yo i dont know how i came across this video nor do i think i care much for this kind of content (no offence just not my jam) but iam sure as hell liking and subbing for the editing! Great vid, you made someone like me enjoy it and want to watch more of your stuff
I thought I was the only person to notice! 😂 I even went back and re-watched his attempt. Overhead (Kyudo) draw would have helped him a bit too i think. 👍
How did your rotator cuff not tear doing that, that rough? I nearly tore my rotator cuff or damaged my ac joint drawing my bow with my draw shoulder slightly raised 😂 I’d need surgery doing what you just did
Josh-Too Funny asking another guy ....Is It In ??? Then getting the worst case of Hemroids trying to pull a 200lb Bow , Keep trying my friend like learning to ride a bike you will get it Eventually !!!
Well I think I've been drawing wrong this whole time. As I raise the bow, I push the bow as I pull the string so when I reach to aim I'm already drawn.
It must be that time of the month huh girlie man? 😂 kidding haha! I thought my 80lb bow was wild. You could used that as a Leafspring on you widdle waptor lmao!
Hold the bow towards the sky not straight up but almost and then when u pull you pulling with gravity. Gravity has nothing to do with it but yeah it might be a tad bit easier
