I thought that at first too, but he isn't really paying for the bow, his viewers are, by listening to him drone on forever about an Android game, clocking the links to said game he pins as top comment, and don't forget the five other ads scattered through the video. So really, good on you and all the viewers that paid for that bow maybe, it was in fact a gentlemanly thing to do. Just pointing out, once you factor in all the Adverts and Sponsorships I can say he in no way paid for it himself.

@@morpheusgreene2704 You make a most excellent point my man, but to clarify I do not mean it that literally. Think more like "Oh I drank to much last night and today I'm paying for it" I reckoned in this case though he wanted more money, so as to afford the bow. Seemed to me that resulted in a Sponsorship, which is great for him, but seeing how it's his viewers are the ones forced to pay out the extra minutes, five at a time, seems kinda like we're the ones now "paying for it"... Metaphorically speaking of course. You are still right though. I was merely quite agitated after the 5+ min in the beginning of the video of him talking about a videogame, interrupted by an Ad then back to Sponsor Promotion, when I came to see a War Bow in action. While that may be acceptable for some, I have better things to do, you can learn or see a lot on KZbin in 5 min, or you can listen to him tell you how great an Android game is. I understand Adverts=Revenue, and we all gotta make that money, but the fact dude apparently can't make it on/choose between plugging sponsors in his video...As well as having 6 other classic Ads throughout less than 30 min is just plain amazing, and not in a good way at all. It did lose him at least one viewer and subscriber, which I'll admit probably doesn't matter to him anymore, but is still sad as I loved viewing his amazing craftsmanship. Still don't hate the guy but I can not agree with him chosing to promote Sponsors rather than accepting a gift from a fellow craftsman and then shamelessly promoting that guy instead. Which in contrast would have been nice, at least I would have still been hearing about Bows in a around about way. I do appreciate you hearing me out, as well as your thought provoking response. In fact I liked it so much I will modify it for my last remark. Imagine you go to see your Doctor for a specific purpose, now you know that a Dr. charging for services isn't odd, we all have to make money... But let's say you arrive, sit down in the waiting room, and this specific Doctor has decided to make the money to afford his new BMW by having the nurse come out and try to get you to sign up for a Timeshare before you're allowed to sign in... You came here to see a Doctor (Bow video), prepared to pay(watch ad's). But apparently the Doctor decided he wanted a BMW, and even though a dealership offered him one for free, and would have probably only wanted a poster in his office this man would prefer sell timeshare to his clients. Frustrating. Lastly Imagine that said Doctor allows himself to be called a "Gentleman" for said actions. Infuriating. A very Gent-Chad move indeed.

[@V-C137]

But if they have the armour: Oh no! , anyway.. *clarkson face*

[@wallyxu9467]

It really is apple and orange comparison. Armour is curved and hardened. The curvature not only redirects the energy in the arrow, but also reinforces the overall structure to make it tougher and harder to penetrate. If you watched the armour video, it clearly shows the arrow had a hard time imparting its energy into the armour without the tip breaking off or flying off to the side. On a side note, yes, thinner and smaller arrows will have good penetration profile. It's simply physics. You have higher pressure with less material to displace. That's why US Military adopted in using 5.56mm NATO, it simply penetrates armour better.

I'd love to see the comparison. Thanks for the mention of my last vid, it's a really interesting and fun area to experiment in.

Indeed, I think Joerg is pushing that boundary now, not there yet though - this thing is pretty damn neat. However get much larger or more powerful and it becomes IMO more efficient to build a proper small balista on a few fronts - it will be too heavy to draw often (even for the trained troops), much harder to move (Small balista of the Roman era at least break down in pretty portable leg and bolt thrower sections), still won't hit as hard as the balista and the biggest one for practical purposes is the ammunition. Arrows are relatively delicate and large, so it should be easier to carry more Balista bolts on campaign.

[@GummieI]

@FoldiOne Papyrus well tbf I don't think this one was made with the intention of actually being a warfare weapon in the first place, unlike the Instant Legolas, but rather more of a training wheel almost to allow ppl to draw a heavier weight than normally (Partly seen in the how "flimsy"(for lack of a better word) it is compared to the rest of the stuff he made)

I mean these are incredibly powerful weapon because of modern physics and everything but I don't think they'll do very much against medieval plate armor though. There's a lot of things wrong with that used to play for a sheet of Steel oh, for one we don't know what kind of Steel it is if it's plain mild steel Ruben plain high carbon steel because medieval armor was almost always heat-treated. In top of that the curvatures and the slopes of the armor not only added strength without making it thicker it also give the ability for weapons to less likely "grip" & "dig in" the armor which makes it more likely to deflect. And at the top of all that forged metal is going to be a lot stronger than a stamp sheet. So I put my money in a proper made plate armor vs those weapons.

The issue with a thinner arrow is that, well, the arrow would break apart from the forces applied. You can't use too small an arrow because it'll shatter from the force applied, possibly even before it clears the bow itself. That's why there's arrows with different weights and thicknesses; to allow each bow to have the right delivery medium. Now, if we were to modernize and use metallic arrows, that would change things quite significantly.

Obviously it wouldn't be 100% deadly, but a modern bow/crossbow definitely has the edge over a longbow because of a couple of things: - the projectile is thinner and has therefore better penetration - it is also lighter so, given the same energy, it travels faster compared to a heavier bolt - a modern bow has less and lighter moving parts, so it is more efficient than a warbow

Have you ever seen a suit of armor that has a flat plate at the front? Armors curve, to better deflect projectiles. Same principal as used on tanks. Surfaces are at an angle as to deflect incoming projectiles.

[@golfclub2830]

@@gizmonomono a heavier projectile penetrates more at the same velocity, but in a bow, where the force is the same, a heavier arrow will have a lower speed. It is exactly why a rifle round is small and fast compared to a pistol one: it will have less stopping power but better penetration. Also yes, armor is never flat and definitely better than the sheet jorge used in the vdeo. I'm not saying that a modern bow would penetrate anything from the medieval era, it's just superior

[@kooroshrostami27]

it still proves the point that in medieval times, you would need heavy ass warbows or heavy ass crossbows to have any chance of killing or incapacitating a decently armored solider from distance (unless you had an army of ballistas, which you don't). 170 pound warbow would definetly do the trick against mediocre armor, but I think it is safe to say that no medieval warbow could pierce a top notch breastplate such as an elite knight would wear. You world really have to hit the weakpoints of the plate armor to have any chance of penetration.

[@gizmonomono]

@@golfclub2830 You mean a modern bow is superior to a medievil bow? What gave you that idea 😁 All I'm saying, it's not a proper test by any means. Still entertaining, though.

Hi, Joerg. I've watched your videos a long time and while I don't do archery, I appreciate your engineering and your very friendly personality. The reason I'm commenting is to tell you that what you said about Raid keeping so many channels alive has moved me to try the game, which has always come out as a meme on KZbin. I appreciate you and your honesty. You seem a truly good person and I hope you hear that often. ☺️

[@theocross375]

One of the bonuses that I can't remember him actually talking about is the fact that not only is the bow often more accurate when used with the legolas repeating action, but its because it has a barrel of sorts. As the arrow is released, it travels down a confined chamber keeping it in line with the end of the bows draw; consequently, there is less deviation in the arrow's flight, making it more accurate.

Really surprising result. I never would have guessed that modern hunting weapons are that much more effective than heavy war bows

It was a bad comparison, since the carbon arrow was very thin compared to the very thick wooden arrow, so much more steel needed to be pushed out of the way to get through. He should have tested them both with the same arrow.

The shaft was cut in England: A long shaft, a strong shaft, Barbed and trim and true; So we’ll drink all together To the grey goose-feather And the land where the grey goose flew. What of the mark? Ah, seek it not in England: A bold mark, our old mark Is waiting over-sea. When the strings harp in chorus, And the lion flag is o’er us, It is there that our mark will be. What of the men?

[@TheUncleRuckus]

Super cool!! I'm noticing one thing though, its that when your hands get close to your chest at the final draw point it seems like you're having to really flex your shoulders & back to get it to lock and looks extremely stressful not to mention uncomfortable. I'm not sure but it looks looks like there's maybe a 6 to 8 inch distance between the stationary handle and the chest plate. I was thinking that maybe increasing that distance by even 2 to 3 inches would help make it easier for you to draw that last bit, by giving you just a little more leverage towards the end of the draw where it's most difficult. Just a thought, an awesome concept regardless 👍👍

I've been kinda pissed off at how many Raid ads I see in every single video. It's gotten to the point were I've just skipped past every ad for raid I see. But this is different. With your ad, I can see you genuinely like the game, and you've brought to my attention many things I wouldn't have even thought of before. This is the first time I've ever downloaded a game because of a sponsorship. That's saying something. Keep up the great videos and I hope to see you get many more sponsorships soon!

If you'll ever play the game, you will soon notice, joerg hasn't even played the game for a few hours. When he tells you about the rewards and he comes to the 3 ancient shards, he said: "What are those? Never used chards, I guess..". You'll do that in the first half an hour.

@@SuppenheiniBrotstulle Anyone sponsored by raid doesn't play it.

@@HanSolo__ interesting perspective...I played the game up till the end of the first level and haven't really had time to get back on to it since and nothing I've seen so far is gambling relates at all so if be interested to know what aspect of the game you're talking about specifically

[@HanSolo__]

@@vivalafiaga As you progress in the game it gets more and more of a grind. It starts fast but soon it slows awfully down. It gets borring. The single thing useful is the arena because you fight with other player's pre-set team. Not live but still less borring than environment enemies. The better your team becomes the better opponents you get. There is form of an illussion of climbing. Since struggle begins soon you want to safe the time and BUY better heroes. But you can buy only the Shards. Hiden heroes. You open it and mostly a weak hero pops out. Sad. You put more money to set higher chances of getting good one. Out of 12 you get 1 decent. But it only begins the expenses as it needs more things now. It is of way too high level to make it on your own in a grind fashion. And its not only hero experience you also need armor weapon etc. You got no time. You gonna buy it. Now you are starting to win matches. Soon enough again better ones then you show on arena. You repete the process. Gambling is located in most such games featuring microtransactions. You NEVER get certain hero only a CHANCE to get it when you roll the dice. Hero or upgrade is ALWAYS COVERED. It can be in form of boxes, cards, shars and other shit - its covered. You never know what you pay for and what you gonna get. If you are a kid you belive its possible to achive higher and higher scores if purchasing sth again and again - it is easy to see its an addiction.

[@fisharepeopletoo9653]

Compound bows are brilliant because of pulleys. Think of every pulley as a x2 force multiplier, and it appears there are 4 on your compound bow, so x8. If it takes 30 pounds to pull the arrow back, you are releasing it with (30x8=) 240 lbs of force, considerably more than the 175 lb war bow. Pulleys are amazing

[@theviking6052]

I use a 70 lbs long bow. It does take getting used too! I always used a 60 lbs and when I switched to a 70 lbs it wasn’t that much of a difference. And BTW I have made respect for you for not taking free stuff from people! I watch Star Wars collector channels and they get gifts anywhere from $5 -$500 and hay a 5-30 dollars is the limit I would set!

Respect to the archers that pulled those bows. And to think that Mongol's bows were recorded at an average of 160 to 166 lb pulls that they shot on horseback, from different riding positions, both right and left handed. And the women were also able to pull those bows, even though they rarely fought in the military, they still hunted and defended their homes. Powerful people.
