Seljuk (Prototype) by Nawalny Bows - Review

[@ukasznawalny7038]

Thank you Armin for review. This bow will be my target bow probably for long time. On final verison and little higher poundage we get average 188-190 fps 10 gpp . On light arrows shooting comfort is lower but even light arrows seems to be not dangerous for bow construction. On flight arrows this bow can shoot around 250 fps in draw weight 50-60 lb. Ofcourse use very light arrows in long term use is not recommended but few flight shoots should not damage this bow

[@ArminHirmer]

it is a fantastic bow, I just need some stiffer arrows for it :) thank you for all you do

[@jareth7456]

Lukasz...this bow is pure magic ...you know that feeling you get when you fall head over heels except more like a lightning strike....that's the one

[@BLACKXARCHERY]

Absolutely awesome and beautiful bow.

[@lemagicbaguette1917]

This is quite the odd combination, but I really like the end result. Might get one in the future and give it a whirl.

[@oimtom3631]

What a nice day because of you too, thkx Armin and Lukas !

[@Cleo8575]

All I can say is another great review by a true professional in archery. I also want to thank Lukasz Nawalny for taking the time to add his thoughts and impressions on his bow. These reviews by Armin helps us understand and compare so many options the builders have to offer us! Cheers

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

Someone is gonna love this.. I hope they take good care of it.. it's art...

[@tammynfletcher]

Another gorgeous bow by Nalwany! Fit and finish looks excellent and performs well. Thanks for another honest review!

[@agamagreen]

The comments before said it all: what a beautiful and excellently performing bow! 👏🥰 Thank you so much for building and sharing the bow, dear Łukasz! 🙏 Thank you so much for the review, dear Armin! Your enthusiasm was easy to see 😁🙏 Much fun with this beauty! In case you give him away to the patreons, you will make someone very happy for sure 😁 Keep up the fun! 🏹🔆

[@UTxTheArchangel]

What a glorious looking book. Visually just a beauty. Looks like the kind of bow you fall in love with after the first shot. Would be a dream to own such a beauty, looking like it might be the best bow from Nawalny which is saying a lot since all of use that watch your reviews know the quality produced. Great review as always.

[@iam-mp1pe]

Just when I was about to decide between his Saracen or the Mongolian he puts this out. & I've already been taking a long time trying to choose. Man! He's bows are amazing. Its always a pleasure watching you use those works of art witch happen to also be a tool. Tool sounds so blunt but you know what I mean. Take care brother

[@ArminHirmer]

no matter which one you will get, they are all awesome

[@miguelveratraditionalarche9374]

Glorious looks.🥰 I have Nawalny bow and its quality is outstanding. It seems to me Lukasz succeeded again with that gorgeous bow. Enjoy your Sunday Armin ☕👊😁

[@Daylon91]

Fantastic looking bow and performs very well. Great review. Spring has sprung here finally 🙌 outside shootin days are here!

[@rawls1976]

Beautiful bow. What a true craftsman.

[@sjohnson4882]

Keep it, my friend.

[@davidlargen6945]

Awesome review. Very nice bow. You made it look easy to hit center

[@strydyrhellzrydyr1345]

There was another one recently that was also a 56.. and I think it was 550 dollars as well.. I'd like to see you compare those 2... Can't remember the name of it

[@rawls1976]

Sounds crisp

[@alexisalliel73]

If you decide to give it away to your patreons, you will make us all dream for days and nights before the results of the draw... But that's up to you, I would have a hard time to give away such a piece of art!

[@istanbullular_dernegi]

*Selçuk*

[@amersassila]

Kesinlikle! Selçuk doğrudur. Selçuk yayısı için Türk yapımcı var mı? Sadece osmanlı buldum ama selçuk henüz bulmadım…

[@bigernbladesmith]

Lukasz is an amazing bowyer. If I ever won the lottery I would keep him very busy. 😁My current problem is which one do I save money for next? I'm thinking the Korean or the short Ottoman.

[@ArminHirmer]

both awesome and at the end you will get them both :)

[@goldentimes7914]

"Ui, the arrow is broken", shoots it anyway 😄. I really think you are in love with this bow, you dont even want to loose the second to change the arrow, hilarious!! 😄

[@ArminHirmer]

just the end of the shaft, no problem :)

[@m.afiqhelmi6279]

Wonderful vid sir Armin, I really want to meet you one day

[@harryhuang1439]

Compare to Alinow Janissary? They looks very similar.

[@cathayarmory]

I guess good bows look similar----make the limb a little longer and the siyah a little forward with a string bridge :)

[@jenjen7728]

💁😮🏹🙏💖😍 So hard to comment after a Nawalny bow video, it's all been said and it's never enough. No words. Except Thank you Lukasz Nawalny. Thanks Armin🙏❤

[@ArminHirmer]

thank you ;)

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

I wonder if your Oneida bow got 230 FPS with 10gpp because it has higher initial draw weight. Why are compound bows faster?

[@ArminHirmer]

I think it is set from the factory to 38-40# (I thought 30#) More tests coming soon

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

@@ArminHirmer but... compound bows have higher draw weights from the beginning right? I guess thats why they are faster

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

@@ArminHirmer Could you talk if the complexity of compound is worth it? It is more prone to break and more upkeep?

[@marekbieganski3876]

@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 High quality compound bow will be durable and definitely more accurate. This is not a choice of durability. You choose a traditional/historical archery because of it's beauty. Personally I even use self-nock wooden arrows. Choose compound if you want accuracy offered by hi-tech.

[@marekbieganski3876]

@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 You are right about the speed. The work needed to draw a bow is stored as energy and will be converted to kinetic energy of an arrow and parts of the bow after release. Total work needed to draw the bow is a force multiplied by a distance. The force is not constant here, as it depends on draw length, so to calculate the work (energy), you need to measure total area below a draw weight chart at the distance of your draw length. This is where compound bow wins. It has a peak in early draw phase that will add a lot to energy, but then it goes down to make aiming easy.

[@VladMcMerlin]

Beautiful bow! So little stress un the curves, active limbs, 24mm arrowpass...

[@rsr1145]

Wow, this bow sounds beautiful! :)

[@azizichehamid3895]

If you had to choose between the Seljuk from Nawalny and the Assyrian from Grozer, which one would you pick Armin? Or aren't they similar in performance?

[@kevinmaughan4290]

Great question

[@ArminHirmer]

good that I dont have to :) but I would go with Nawalny

[@ArminHirmer]

only because I shot this one recently and the Assyrian a long while ago :)

[@kevinmaughan4290]

@@ArminHirmer i looked back at the assyrian review, it still looks a great bow, it would be hard to choose

[@ArminHirmer]

@@kevinmaughan4290 yep, best to have both :)

[@arnaulpujol8439]

Que hermoso arco que empuñadura y las puntas que artesanal muy bueno como de donde son uno asi quiero com mucha potensia para caza como lo pido soy de Bs As

[@ldohrebl]

If you keep this up Armin, you are going to out me in the poor house…oh yeah and the dog house too as the wife is wondering where all these new bows are coming from. I told her from the trees in the backyard. Great review.

[@jakemccoy2226]

Hey Armin, would you say that this bow would probably be the best for your money for getting into hunting with a lighter draw weight bow? I injured my shoulder some years ago, and now I'm limited to draw weight but need a bow that can still perform for hunting.

[@ArminHirmer]

Ted Nugent a while ago showed a girl, she hunts white tails with a 30# recurve. So of course this bow will go great too

[@TodoRadegast]

Isn’t Nawalny Bows located in Kiew, Ukraine?

[@ArminHirmer]

no

[@jake4194]

I think its Sarmat archery that is in Ukraine

[@0ooTheMAXXoo0]

Me likey short bows!

[@gizmonomono]

It's a beauty. I would certainly get one if I had that kind of money to spare 😁

[@jareth7456]

Mine!!!!! Mine! mine !mine !mine !mine!

[@colleenparsons51]

I aggre with you, it looks very pretty bow, but looks very tough to use, I certainly wouldn't be able to draw that weight

[@srinjoyroychoudhury7034]

Looking at the siyahs of the bow one can definitely say it is a superior design than the ottoman/sipahi bows. I don't know why the Turks switched to a less powerful bow.

[@jake4194]

Why do you say that? Please explain

[@Marcfasel]

Another masterpiece from lukash …..👏👏👏i Would stay with the bow….😂😂😂no way!!

[@N0rnagest]

The Seljuk or the Korean ????? or lots and lots of saving , and both of them !

[@ArminHirmer]

yeah, both

[@tiobi6633]

The pigeon ... 😂

[@arrowzen7433]

This is like a mix between a Mongolian, Tang, Assyrian and Sipahi...interesting. Would love a comparison between this, Nawalnys Mongol, Keshig and Grozers BC Assyrian…

[@chroma6947]

Just got one of your favourites the other day, a Grozer Tatar :)

[@ArminHirmer]

awesome, have fun with it

[@srinjoyroychoudhury7034]

Please don't give it to the patrons. Keep this lovely bow for yourself

[@jasommato9110]

I am not thankfull for this review :D I am waiting for tatar from Lukasz and now I am lookyng for new one before first ewen came home :D

[@arrowzen7433]

I wonder what it means when something come “whale-packed” - too much packaging I imagine. Good one Armin 😆
