Hehe thanks

[@miguelveratraditionalarche9374]

I love having my cup of coffee😉☕ watching good shots. it's a pleasure to watching Sunday videos. 😃 The only thing missing is the Simsek Hybrid which is a target annihilator. In my own experience with the Simsek Hybrid, I say that it is an all-time bow. And I already enjoyed it in the rain and shoots incredible. Thanks Armin for this video. 🤩🏹👍🔥

[@johanneslauffer6613]

I didn't want to buy any more bows this year, but then I watched this and wrote an email to Szimeiszter.... aaah, Armin's not good for my wallet. But good for bowmaker's business all over the world. :) I really liked the comparison and the statement that there's something for everyone. I was able to easily pick my favorite in relationg to requirements after watching this. Thank you for the work you put into this!

[@ArminHirmer]

Thank you Johannesburg and sorry for your wallet :)

[@FolkClouds]

I love watching you shoot arrows, you are an inspiration. It's so calming.

[@bigernbladesmith]

Love Nawlny bows. Only problem I have is Lukaz needs to move to the US so customs does not lose my bow for 4 months. I guess US customs like Nawlny bows as much as I do.

[@nikking37]

Thank you! More of these videos would be really helpful for beginner traditional archers like me!

[@ArminHirmer]

Will do my best

[@dasMoto]

@@ArminHirmer yes, I saw all the videos, but rewatching for comparison is quite frustrating. Also I always enjoy your new content.

[@ambidextrousarchery]

Armin, your comparison videos are always great. Thank you.

[@jenjen7728]

My favorite reviews are Sunday morning reviews, others at church and me with my coffee and Armin's review. Two bows stand out from that crowd. The Janissary which I have based on your review and I adore, it is such a fun shooter. The other is the Lukasz Nawalny bow which I don't have but is my dream bow. Thank you Armin for the very professional and in depth review, helpful for the undecided for sure. Have a great Sunday everybody💘

[@ArminHirmer]

Thank you for watching and enjoy your coffee :)

[@Daylon91]

Just great! Lighting was perfect, you seen all the arrows flying which I love to see. Your shooting was great as well. Top notch review. Very informative and organized.

Thank you

Armin I just received today my first Turkish bow today! Your channel has spurred me back into archery which I loved as a boy, Im excited! 😊 Thank you for bringing the stoke my friend. 🙏 Blessings and aloha Timothy

[@theatrenisha9345]

A delightful dynamic comparative analysis . Loved it .

[@ArminHirmer]

Thank you my friend

[@harlinwall9367]

A wonderful review. This really gives the viewers an opportunity to see each bow in action, side by side and in the hands of someone who really knows his way around this style of bows. If you are on the fence about which bow Turkish style bow to consider, this video will get your juices flowing and soon enough you will have what you desire in your hands. Perhaps you will discover that you need a couple different bows from this selection! A wonderful review that will doubtlessly help to guide many enthusiastic archers! Thank you Armin!

[@ArminHirmer]

Thank you

[@shauneyres]

2 days ago I finally received my basic turkish style bow from Alibow and now I am learning thumb release, it makes me feel like I've never shot a bow before, but I am enjoying the experience however my thumb is not lol. One day I hope to have a nice bow to shoot once I'm a bit more proficient. Thank you Armin for providing me the inspiration to try this style of archery and all the work you do to make these awesome videos.

[@kevinmaughan4290]

Brilliant, im just torn between which bow to buy next, turkish, korean, and many more, all these reviews are killing me, i know any bow i choose ill say i should have got the other one.

[@ArminHirmer]

Hehe

[@mickjenner6697]

Buy both , a vègh short sipahi and a white feather fairy , both at same poundage so u can use same arrows , You won't be upset , I love my Korean bow but am waiting on a new one as finally my one has been shot out , top limb wants to get too weak anymore

Funny to see that Alibow one shakes. Mine one doesn't do that at all, but it's a 50lb. Maybe I was lucky then.

[@joaoalfredomedeiros3480]

Armin , your videos and detailed explanations are very interesting . Thank vou very much

[@averose8413]

i was wondering when the next video will be posted, dint realized you posted already. youtube sometimes dint give you notification i dont know why

[@alessandrovaselli3757]

Sempre belle recensioni, grazie. Aspettiamo spiegazione su F- Value.

[@VladMcMerlin]

Would you agree that the poundage should be indicated at max draw instead of 28? Because if you say they are roughly the same at 28, they can be quite different at max draw, like the one ending at 28 and the other at 33 inches.

[@ArminHirmer]

Yes this 28” thing or rule is from Olympic I guess. Of course in my opinion the bows should show the poundage in their safe max draw

[@josipzagar57]

Likewise, a big Thank You for your effort! You're still the only one with such knowledge and content.

[@ArminHirmer]

Thank you

[@mbfloris612]

For beginners in Turkish archery I can recommend the basic fiberglass model from Alibow. It was my first Turkish bow and I still use it as my low poundage training bow. The Monolith from Nawalny is beautiful, I wish it was available in higher poundage.

[@MichaelJones-ti9fx]

It’s good to see bows in rye various price ranges. We started with a 20# fiberglass bow with arrows and a quiver for $20 USD that I purchased from a yard sale.

[@Meninodeprestigio]

8:46 - I see the string go through the arm and chest of the guy and I thought it was a bug of Matrix!

[@poloverzamil407]

Excellent Comparison.

[@AvengerXOFXBlood]

I've got my eye on that Janissary by Alibow for my first laminated bow... currently using their fiberglass Turkish bow. Still don't feel ready for the laminated yet, though.

[@ArminHirmer]

All in it’s time

[@sidalimokrani8275]

nice video, where would you rank Mihai Cozmei's bow on this list?

[@ArminHirmer]

not a Turkish bow, so not on this list :)

[@jedgurley]

You know, most of the time I'm listening to how the shot sounds, as I learned to weld by sound from my instructor, I deffinently listen to how things sound, all these bows sound different, and each sound has a direct relationship to the way they shoot, draw .. vibration..

[@dasMoto]

Thanks for that video. What I am waiting for is a speed comparison. Like the 5 fastest bows you have, and witch one of them performs the best. (I know speed is not everything but.. you know... BAAAMM!!!) 😉

[@ArminHirmer]

Hahaha yeah I know

[@12henry1234]

[@bama5490]

Love this one really like it a lot thank you very much but what about the kayi people they were at the top of the Ottoman food chain so I'm sure their bows were a little better

[@ArminHirmer]

What shall be with these people? Guess they are not around anymore, like the ottoman. As said I am not a historian and I can just compare what I have here

[@lulustocke8251]

I send regards from the Biocomposite Turkish you talked about 😅 The bow is fine and a nice and smooth shooter.

How can I buy a Turkish bow and where.

[@mickjenner6697]

Why are all the alibows loud , they all have that same sound on your videos, and when I've shot my friends various alibows it's same sound

[@harryhuang1439]

My impression off my Janissary is that the bow builder trying to get the maximum energy stored with the lightest stiffest materials. So if the energy is not let out to the arrow, it becomes noise. Because none of the material he used has any damping effect, it's loud. I made a range of arrows from 8-12mm pine sticks just to find out the difference, 12 mm is stiff as hell but performs best, not much noise, not very friendly to the target through.

[@garnix5612]

I highly recommend the Teksek II by Numair. It is a really great bow, and for a very good price

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

Since I'm taller. And a wider chest. I have a longer reach. Or draw... So I don't know... I think 1 was a 32 inch draw. Actually it's 33. Szimeister

penoscop or something like that. you draw two bows at once

@@ArminHirmer I've looked and looked trying to find that bow again, and can't. I did find drawings of bows in their various positions. Perhaps i was confused by that in my cursory examination and what I was seeing was the bow in its unstrung position superimposed on it in its other positions.
