Monolith Tatar by Lukasz Nawalny - Review

[@ukasznawalny7038]

Thank you for your Sacrifice, now you need 2 weeks rehabilitation :)

[@ArminHirmer]

Hahaha

[@travelindonkj]

Rehab is for quitters😂

[@jareth7456]

I really really appreciate you testing this bow ...just be glad it was 55lbs I originally ordered it at 60lbs RAWWW !! I'm afraid that would have hurt so we dropped the poundage just for you buddy lol it's a good thing cause I'm getting old lol

[@jareth7456]

And thank you so very much Lukasz I love this bow it's very...snappy ,also I'm finding 350 spine works super well with this one and I can't wait for my new Turkish bow with the ultra speed setup. Beautiful bow Lukasz fantastic job man your awesome

[@tammynfletcher]

Now that's a beautiful bow! Almost too elegant for me to shoot! But I think it's one of the most efficient designs out there and most definitely my favorite design. Thanks to the owner for letting us see such a beauty. Thank you Lukaz for your excellent skill. And to you Armin for just being you! Great review as always.

[@jareth7456]

Holy cow on the roof !!! 85lbs .....that's mean , I'd love to see some testing done with such a bow on armor penetration maybe, unarmored opponents that bow would probably go through three or four of them with a needle bodkin maybe more if it doesn't hit bone ,I want to see you shoot that 85lb pig holy cow

[@Daylon91]

Where do u get your heavy arrows? AF? I know they have some I'd buy when I'm drawing at least 70 ibs. I'm drawing 55-65 right now.

One word came to mind over and over as you strung it and then shot it...but we don't use that word here. Perfectly. Shaped. Bow. Mr. Nawalny is my favorite bow builder, each bow inspired by God I believe and made through the hands of this Master Craftsman. Just wow.

Very much appreciated Armin thank you for reviewing my bow your awesome

[@LifeisGood-ye8rl]

Hopefully 1 day we can see the Nawalny Korean War bow. He has a very unique interpretation of Korean bow with very interesting kassan that’s unlike any traditional Korean horse bow. Someday I will quit my jobs, sell my house and travel to Poland to apply as mr Nawalny assistant just so I could learn his crafts so 1 day I could make something nearly as beautiful and shoot like his bows.

[@ArminHirmer]

Hehe good luck :)

[@jareth7456]

Lukasz certainly is dedicated and is a master craftsman, with equal dedication I don't see why you shouldn't succeed and if you have a good attitude for very tedious work

[@Owlsrayne]

Excellent video, I like the short training session toward the end of the video. Thank you.

that bow is so gorgeous i love the style, i would probably like to get one later, but i currently await my imperial kheshig from alibow

[@Marmocet]

Beautiful bow. I want one. Heavier bows are fun. I'll bet if you drew that bow 20-30 times a day, within a week or two the draw weight would be no problem for you.

[@ArminHirmer]

I tried but my shoulder does not agree, broken bones grew some kind of odd together...

[@jareth7456]

Thank you for your nice comment, yes they are very fun ....sorry Armin but hey you shot it like a pro . I draw this thing way more than that I train 7 hours every single day without exception even when I'm in alot of pain, and thank you very much for your comments

This is random but the picture on the voucher is from the game Mount and Blade: Warband... I'm pretty sure anyway haha

Do you prefer this Monolith Tatar bow or the Saracen Short Tatar?

[@ArminHirmer]

Both amazing :) there is no winner

[@Leverguns50]

Excellent video, really nice looking bow

[@jake4194]

Seems like tatar bows are slower than Turkish and Korean style, what is the advantage to using them?

[@ArminHirmer]

Manchu bows are even slower … heavier arrows mostly, with light weight arrows every bow is fast :)

[@jareth7456]

High efficiency to cast very heavy arrows very hard ,many bow hunters I know use arrows in the 3-400 grain weight and those arrows pass right through a 900lb elk ,heavier arrows have more momentum an object loses its energy nearly twice as fast in velocity as it does momentum, read Dr. Ed Ashby Natal fatality study and you'll get it

[@carlredbird3054]

Yes sometimes it seems like you are straighten your bow armed a bit too much... I like a slight bend to my elbow But you r shooting a different style than me

[@sigmanarchery54]

Yes that is a very nice bow it really has a great look and shape. 👍🏼👍🏼🏹🇺🇸

[@bronzestar3557]

Beautiful......but it is not only a bow but a work of art. I am not sure if I could shoot it as fear of damaging it would always be there.

[@ArminHirmer]

Still just a bow :)

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

I need to understand bows better I guess... Cause those arrows were going just about the same speed as bows that are much less poundage

[@ArminHirmer]

9gpp is 9gpp on a 40# bow its 360g on a 70# bow its 630g

[@jareth7456]

You are ...somewhat correct, in that the return speed of the limbs is generally the same but you do get greater speed with a heavier bow ; what the higher poundage does is allows you to throw a much heavier arrow having much much more momentum and far far superior penetration. If you were to get hit by an arrow from that bow you would just feel a little thump not realizing that an arrow just passed right through you ....if the arrow hit heavy bone like the spine it would literally knock you down. I thank you for your interest in my pretty new bow

[@axelg.4329]

It certainly is a functional piece of art. With my limited traditional longbow and somewhat better target recurve bow experience, horse-bow archery is certainly a tempting - be it too early - next step. A bow such as this is likely the best bang for buck when compared to what my target bow cost but the learning curve would certainly be steep. I feel like I’d love to own one but wouldn’t be worthy of it yet. Great Review! Vielen Dank Armin!

[@jake4194]

Start with a cheap horsebow, thumb draw and arrow on the right side is very awkward and you will scratch your bow and arrows at first.

[@jareth7456]

That's the perfect reason to start immediately don't worry we're all hear to help out

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

I'd like to know how much this one.. this exact bow cost.. ??? You said it starts at 550$.. it how much after all the gold and paint and everything

[@ArminHirmer]

Add all extras and around 150 for the painting

[@jareth7456]

I paid $1100

[@jareth7456]

That price I paid , is a bit misleading because I paid extra and that's because I knew it needed to get shipped to Malta

[@mariuszKondraciuk]

$ are not € ;)

[@jareth7456]

Correct that's usd it would probably be in the mid 800 euro

[@Archerstidbits]

Very subtle by the way Armin 😅, and let me know your preference in poundage and color and I'll see what I can make you 👍

That is very very kind , I am the owner of the tartar here and I'd love to see your work

[@mbfloris612]

I really would love to see the difference between this bow and a real hornbow when it comes to shooting experience. Is it true that real hornbows display their advantages especially at heavy poundage? Gokmen Altinkulp said it in an interview.

[@ArminHirmer]

Yes, that’s what they say from 70-80# up one will see the evenings of a horn composite

[@jareth7456]

Yes sir they get more and more efficient with poundage, imagine being able to shoot a 166lb bow and draw it like it's nothin and doing the military technique like Mihai...wow that would be awesome

Big fan

[@arashardalan7497]

Amazing! Question: what one can do to protect the handle from getting scratched in specific cases where there is no shark skin type built in???

[@ArminHirmer]

Khatra :D

[@jareth7456]

Easier said than done lol!!! But this is why we practice, practice, practice and we get there

[@jrs4516]

string whipping is cheap, doesn't damage woods arrows like ray skin, and easy to replace if required. the down side is you add a small amount to you arrow pass width. i like a bigger handle so i take the leather handle off (if present) and whip the whole handle all the way to the top of the arrow pass. then cover the handle section in leather, leaving the arrow pass section with just whipping.

[@jareth7456]

Sometimes I us kinetic tape only two layers and it only adds one millimeter and is easily replaced when it wears through
