Turkish Bow Short Bow Horseback Archery Bow 30-50lbs

This bow is absolutely gorgeous, and comes with a ray-skin arrow pass which will not wear out like regular leather. The arrows fly out of it silly fast, and as it's a traditional bow made of modern materials, it won't wear out even if left strung. I wish it were longer as I am a relatively tall guy with long arms, but still is a very well-made bow for the price.

nice bow

I dont have much to say about it bc Im not that experienced in the ins and outs of archery but in my experience so far (About 200 shots) it shoots hard and straight (with good arrows). Ive accidently dry fired it a couple times and it suffered no damage and overall it seems good.

I got a 35# one for my 7 year old son. It’s the perfect height and is something he can grow into for a few more years. He can really launch some arrows with it. He even shot his first rabbit recently and is excited to eat it with his friend.

Very good little bow for the price point. These fiberglass limb bows from Ali bow generally run about 6-8 pounds under their marked weight. I have one in 40# ( actual is 36#) in Mongolian style and one in 50# ( actually is 46#) in turkish style. My draw length is 31”, bow poundage marked at 28”.They shoot well and are very durable with normal use. I have shot hundreds of arrows over mine. Draw weight has not diminished since I have had them, I unstring them when not in use. If your interested in asian style archery, this is a great way to get started. These are shot off the hand ( no arrow rest) so invest in a shooting glove for your bow hand. These work well with 3 finger and thumb release. Factory strings are a bit noisy. String silencers will help, I make mine from old bicycle tubes. Just a 1/2” wide by 1” long with a hole, at one end. Wrap over string and through self hole and pull snug. I put two on each end. Work very well and its cheap.

Didn’t feel like waiting a whole month for shipping from the actual manufacturer sit so decided to get it from Amazon instead. The bow creaks at first but once you run a couple hundred shots through it, it shoots as smooth as butter. The bow flings arrows mighty fast and haven’t experienced any limb twisting yet after a month.

I bought this as my first horse bow and am very happy with it. The short length makes it easy to maneuver while mounted and I am finding I can accurately aim it.

I would recommend a novice get one 35# or lower. Shooting 450-grain carbon arrows, the speed from it is incredible and comparable to a 70# recurve. I'm using plastic blazer vanes (cock vane out) and if you nock a little high, they work fine off the thumb or knuckle. So no real need to invest in feathers until you know you like Asian archery.The serving material is very thin, none of my arrows would hold properly, my solution was to serve over the existing material (very easy to do by hand or with a jig, look it up on YouTube). I'll make a custom string for it when this one wears out.Yes, this bad boy stacks hard at 28-29 inches, do not buy if you have a long draw; at my 29.5 inches it feels like I'm pulling closer to 60, but the bow handles it like a champ - no creaking or other sign of strain.I chose this model due to the glowing reviews by Armin Himmer and others on YouTube, and everything they say about it is true, once I start shooting, I just can't put it down.I purchased it in 50# rather than a lighter weight only because I already have years shooting conventional recurve bows at high draw weights and spent a couple of months practicing thumb draw (hold but no release) with those bows before getting this one.Update - on 09-23-2021 the upper siyah blew apart while at full draw, this is unacceptable under any circumstances, but especially because the bow was bought in June. This type of failure can cause serious injury for the user.I used arrows of between 10 to 12 grains per pound of draw weight which is well within safe for this (or any other) kind of bow. It appears to have failed where there is a peg of some kind securing the piece that exploded off.This is extremely disappointing as the bow was very enjoyable to shoot for the brief time it lasted. Will update review with Longbowmaker's response to this.
