Archery Review: Nomad Horsebow by Nomad Warriors

[@ccappola]

Thank you, Armin, for the wonderful review of our little 'Goldilocks bow'. We have been over the moon happy with the results ourselves. But hearing the masters of the art feeling the same just makes our hearts soar! Here's hoping we can get out there someday soon to join you on the range! Cheers,

[@Lehmann108]

Do you have a website?

[@ccappola]

Lehmann Peters in the works. For right now just Facebook.com/nomadwarriors

[@jake4194]

When will you have these bows in 40-45# in stock? Youe fiberglass bows are also out of stock in this weight.

[@ccappola]

@@jake4194 We have dozens in stock and on the way. Importing is a bit of a challenge, so we are not sure is we will receive in 2 weeks or 2 months.

[@ijaxon6675]

I really like this bow. It feels good, looks good, it's light and is really smooth. Packs a punch at 45#. Really accurate.

[@ThePirhi]

when armin stops talkinkg and use only sounds, you know bow is really good. this one looks so nice, wouldn't mind have one at home :)

[@ccappola]

Ha!

[@JimAntippas-pd6ft]

Armin's review convinced me to purchase one of these beauties...pear wood limbs were worthe the extra money. Beautiful, fast need i say more!

[@marionbaud9760]

After watching your review I got myself one of these for horseback archery. It arrived today and I'm so incredibly happy with it, such a brilliant little bow. Thanks for the video !!

[@JanTanton]

It arrived! I'm so happy with this bow. My shooting is much more accurate and smooth. Perfect draw length for me, and so nice and compact for horseback! Makes me feel like Superwoman. :D Thanks for the review, Armin. Really helped me narrow down a couple of bows that work for me. This one, and Kheshig from Alibow are working well as I develop. So different, and so exciting to try.

[@dannyrybeck]

I think this video helped me settle on a bow, if they are still available, I will get this one, I had originally settled on a spearman, but I like this one better, thanks for all the great reviews Armin, they are very helpful, I wish you would show more closeup pics of the bows from nock to nock, a kind of slow walk around.

[@Adam-kv6zg]

looks beautiful and shoots smoothly very POPPY!

[@chefboy2160]

Great looking design and review sir. Thanks for all your great lessons Armin.

[@benisDDD]

He really likes this bow

[@ianthompson7190]

Armin, in this video how far are you drawing this bow during most of your shots. I have one of these, and though it is said to draw to 31” but to me it seems to stack past 29”.

[@ArminHirmer]

Gets a bit stiff but does 31

[@Madmartigan1]

Armin - I watched your review of this bow several times and HAD to order one. As we reside in the same state - delivery will be in the coming week - can't wait. Additionally - based on your review - I ordered one of the Dyeema Flemish Twist strings from Dave Forcucci for use on my Istvan Toth Magyar bow - I was finally able to send some arrows down range with it today - very nice the way he's built his strings...

[@ArminHirmer]

enjoy

[@danieljones6858]

That is a beautiful bow.

[@danieljones6858]

And now it is my beautiful bow!So happy to own this, and the very one shot by Armin Hirmer himself!

[@jgw108]

should the draw weight be printed on bottom or top limb? I could have swore i had read or seen in a video that it was bottom, but I just realized that the stingray leather arrow pass (which I only realised was a thing after seeing the grip get scuffed) was on the other side, meaning the draw weight would be printed on the top limb. does that sound correct?

[@robsarchery9679]

That is a beautiful bow.Another good review.

[@gizmonomono]

I think overdrawing in horse archery is more a matter of arrow length. Having slightly longer arrows so you don't draw them into the bow handle. But the longer tips beyond the nocks could be more durable maybe. I don't know 😁 A nice bow. I like it.

[@hambone950]

how does this bow stack up against grozer's bow?

[@ArminHirmer]

Depends on your usage. I think grozer is superior

[@sb-ant6457]

Sweet looking bow

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

Cool channel, just subbed... Love the bow, gonna look for it in the U.S. So that bow is laminate construct, not using any horn or other animal tissues as the original composite bow?

[@ArminHirmer]

laminated

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

Ok thanks. Have you shot any of the fiberglass reproduction horsebows with wood syhas like the Istvan Toth Mongolian horsebow?

[@ArminHirmer]

many, when you go back in my channel you will find some, from small turkish to large manchu

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

Nice, I'll check them out!

[@ccappola]

Happy to answer any questions you have about our little Goldilocks Horsebow. [e-mail]

[@Depwhattube]

First time I've seen you shoot from behind the counter. That's a really nice bow.

[@ccappola]

Loved that!

[@floydandune5194]

Ich glaube das ist der Bogen, den ich mir in meinen schönsten Träumen wünsche. ;)

[@raulgonzo2706]

Do you ever have a thumb ring on or are you just shooting bare? Either way excellent content.

[@ArminHirmer]

usually not, only when I shoot a lot high # :D thank you for watching

[@singharchery3043]

Hi Armin, Nomad Bow totally seems to be Tartar Bow.. only named as Nomad and made with little alteration siyahs as of ming.

[@ArminHirmer]

the main design is tatar, but shorter and longer siyahs. thatswhy quite different from original tatar

[@Fox8ball.]

Hello Armin after watching this video I feel like I want a traditional horsebow and was wondering can they be shot comfortably three finger under I'm a recurve shooter

[@Daylon91]

Of course but it worth learning thumb even slavic and khatra. You will 99% sure not want to go back to western style archery

[@Fox8ball.]

@@Daylon91 a year late im an expert at thumb draw

[@Daylon91]

@@Fox8ball. awesome and I was kinda figuring so but ya

[@Hutchie2112]

I can't believe the state of those strings, awful. But what a beautiful bow, short and with a 31" draw, yes yes yes!

[@1981ulver]

I would like to try next time.

[@gordonallison1055]

Armin, enjoyed the review. A question on arrows. When you give arrow length is that in the normal way of measuring from the cut end of shaft not including head to the valley of nock? If so the 31" arrows you were using must have been drawn right up to the head. I normally allow 10mm or so of overhang when I'm making arrows, how much overhang would you allow if youre making new arrows up for a specific bow?

[@ArminHirmer]

normal way. sometimes I do add a bit, like our range arrows are all 29" instead of 28", to have a bit safety

[@theatrenisha9345]

Wonderful review master .

[@persianarcher905]

I wanna buy this bow what do think about that.saler say me 425$ their price. Is that tatar nomadic warrior?

[@turkaytoklu2237]

i like that bow

Just added this horsebow to my growing collection. Great correspondence with Canyon and fast shipping. Armin my girlfriend hates you!

Sorry Jamie, if she would know me personally it would be different hahaha

[@parthianworrior5874]

Hi mr himmer, i have a korean nomad ktb 53" and #45 ,can i use that for pig hunting? What are arrows i must use for hunting ?

[@ArminHirmer]

I guess yes. Still I think a traditional recurve with shelve would be better for hunting. Stiff carbon arrows 300 spine

[@parthianworrior5874]

@@ArminHirmer thanks

[@clayboneous8]

Armin, Would you recommend this bow over the Living Arrow Asymmetric bow? They are close to the same price. What are the bows you recommend most in this price range?

[@ArminHirmer]

depends. I like more the asymmetrical design - but it is a bit harder to manage. Both are great

[@clayboneous8]

Armin, Thanks a bunch for the reply. My only other inquire before I buy my bow is if you have ever shot a Grozer bow or heard of them...? They claim to produce the fastest laminated bow on the market in any style. Their videos show a 40# bow chronographed at 230fps!!!? Is that possible?

[@Lehmann108]

A beauty!

[@fancymcclean6210]

Stunning looking bow, Sir. I want one. Flaxen Saxon

[@zishan1257]

Canyon Cappola where can i get one from and how much?

[@ccappola]

email me at [e-mail]. OR check the Facebook page, facebook.com/nomadwarriors $300 USD for the standard 10-40# in Clear Bamboo or Black. $40 per side for custom woods like the Pearwood Armin is shooting in the video.

[@thomasrobson6370]

So which grip/handle is your "absolute" favorite, straight back or belly?

[@ArminHirmer]

Depends on the bow, but I like a little belly :)

[@cherno2232]

Hmmmmmm.............. pretty bow

[@persianarcher905]

How much their high speed?

[@christianfister674]

hy, i like your way to do archery videos ;)... one question, what are you filling in your target "Jute" bags?

[@ArminHirmer]

plastic nets from the hard ware store (but I had left overs from old shadings)

[@christianfister674]

Thanks Sir ;), i have also alot plastic nets at home from my garden plants ;). At the moment i use just plastic gabbage... ps: thanks for some very helpful instructions, i learned alot from your videos ;)

[@ArminHirmer]

than have fun :D

[@Desertdweller1965]

After buying an Alibow I found your review 10 arrows the string nock broke. I promised to watch your review videos. There are many videos of yours linked on their site. I’ll get their $100 glass to train the horses.

[@mknbkn4u2]

That is the custom pearwood

[@juandelata]

I don't even know why I'm watching your reviews. I love archery but I'm too poor to buy my own bow. haha

[@jamesbariso704]

Try making a Bhutan Bamboo bow

[@Daylon91]

Pvc bows work well too. Check out the Backyard Bowyer on KZbin

[@lukeclifton124]

what is the best budget horse bow ($100-160)

[@ArminHirmer]

I would go for a fibreglass turkish or tatar from Alibow

[@singharchery3043]

sincere advice by Armin... iam using Alibow's Tartar EFG bow... its awesome, easy to brace, smooth draw, without any stacking problem, good accuracy and powerful superb shoot.

[@AMERICAN_PHAROAH]

When can I get that bow ?

Poundage bro??

[@ArminHirmer]

forty I guess

[@Scientist9221]

HI, Just like your thoughts on the bow hand torque technique, as it is the only method that works for me to get a clean arrow flight instead of arrow slapping the bow. The forward khatra does not work. Thank you.

[@Finnv893]

Try the stiffest arrows you can find, spined for 100 pound+ if you want, and clean up your release. If you intentionally pre-torque the handle during the draw you are compensating for mis-tuned arrows or deficiencies in your techniques or both, not only that you are compromising your bow arm muscle.... it is however the most effective short term solution (you immediately see results) for anyone not willing to experiment with differently tuned equipments, since experimentation is way more expensive than buying cheap, soft beginners arrows (most of them are spined for finger draw on the opposite side); best method is to get a slow-mo camera and film yourself, most new smartphones have slowmo cameras. Not being confrontational so please don't be offended, just trying to help.

[@BaeBox]

Hi BOB, I am also interested in this, I would really appreciate any help you can provide regarding any deficiencies in technique/release. It implies the arrow slap happens because of release problems, I was under the impression it is a rather natural thing happening due to the flex (spine) of the arrow.

[@Scientist9221]

Absolutely not offended. I appreciate your suggestion. You were spot on the point of compromising your bow arm muscle, it gets tired really fast. Can you please explain how a stiffer shaft is going to perform better (not slapping the bow)? Cheers.

[@sparkatorch]

Would/Have you ever look at grozer bows?

i might get one soon
