Sipahis are ottoman cavallary force, horse archers. Their bows need to be small.

[@usnchief1339]

Nice! I want one of each. Currently have an AF Archery Tatar bow and I just love it.

[@borabayulug4248]

The Turkish bow is actually more suitable for shooting arrows in the Turkish style. In traditional Turkish archery, archers shoot arrows by wearing a ring-like device on their thumbs and archery styles are also different. In Turks, thumb and index finger are used to string the bow. open their thumbs and index fingers in an "L" shape. They shoot with their thumbs pulling the bow and their index fingers steadying the arrow. When they shoot the arrow, the hand position looks like the Nike logo upside down :D I think they use such a style because horseback archery is more common in Turks.

[@magnumopus1628]

I'm about to buy a target from Bógar Archery and I think I'm also going to buy the Assyrian bow. It's so beautiful and it seems to perform extremely well. I have a personal suggestion for the problem of the sliding arrows: You could wrap two small strips of leather at the ends of the handle. This would both make the surface more even for the arrows to rest on, because they will not have to rest only on the wooden bulge, but they would also rest on the leather. And due to the "grippy" structure of leather they would also not slide away as easily. I think it could be a really practical fix, and if done properly with good quality leather, it could also look good. In any case, thanks for these videos, keep up the great work! Cheers from Italy. 🇮🇹

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Thanks for the tip. Definitely go for Bogar bow and target, you will be very pleased :)

[@agamagreen]

Very nice video, illuminating another view on important aspects for archers! Thank you, Charlie! ☺️🙏 To prevent your bowhand from sliding on the handle, you can wrap leather around it. It works pretty well 😁 If you don’t have leather pieces at hand, you may use tennis racket grip band as well (a bit thick, but may help with your long fingers) Keep up the fun! 🏹🔆

Thanks for advices, Agama!

[@zozolione]

Hi Charlie, love your vids they are very insiring and I would like to start with running archery as it looks to make so much fun! Because of your expirience and reviews I would like to buy the Assyrian bow from bogar and have some questions. I am shooting now its my first bow an Tiron 60 inch lengh bow from MR Bows with 36lb at 28 inch..now what draw weight would you suggest for running archery to start with and what are your prefered arrows from aliexpress or your source? Thank you very much for your feedback and keep on running ;-).. best regards zoran😀

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Hi, running archery is much easier with lighter and shorter bows. I prefere 35-40 lbs and bows under 120cm of sting lenght :)

[@michaeldelay600]

New subscriber. Great video!

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@BackpackingVideos]

Great comparison! I am looking at bows from Bogar, in particular the Assyrian bow. It seems this is your favorite. A couple questions: Which arrows do you use for these bows and which shooting glove? Thank you

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Using shooting gloves no more ;) arrows are carbons 31” 500 spine :)

[@AllofArchery]

Dude your videos are so good. I agree with you on your decision. Even tho I only use Korean bows for my archery. I love the bows u display and how you display it.

Thanks pal!

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

Whats so great about korean bows? their brace height is low and arrow pass so fat.

[@AllofArchery]

@@pyramid_scheme_termination3655 they are extremely fast. And the low brace height makes for easy quick Nocking. They are super light and really easy to maneuver around. I do use other bows now on my channel but Korean bows has a special spot in my archery.

[@kan-zee]

Where can someone buy the SIPAI and ASSYRIAN bows, in Canada ??

[@didiesupandie4651]

Hi Friend, i feel you need try jackal bow

[@jareth7456]

Your style of shooting will come into play here too ...it's much easier to shoot sassanid with a longer bow ...shorter bows favor thumb draw. You seemed to do very well with all the them but since I'm a Slavic fan I've decided to get a grozer biocomposite Assyrian

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

In just do this slavicish style with all bows and works pretty good :)

[@daniplayz7913]

hey brother, im new to researching bows, what does grozer mean? and im turkish so i was looking at a really nice grozer biocomposite turkish bow. also what are the bows that bend more called?

[@pyramid_scheme_termination3655]

Could you do running archery with thumb release? Why do you prefer slavik?

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Of course, you can. I just chosen Slavic because it feels very natural for me and my body reacts on this style with fluent energy :)

[@Seeruph]

Hi Charie, Would you recommend a Turkish bow by AliBow or by Vegh if we are talking ~300USD?

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

If you are from EU, buy your bow here. Bows from Asia are more expensive because of customs, tax and shipping. Consider also Szimeister bow. If we talk about turkish from Vegh, than go with Fetih :)

[@stefanhansen5882]

Thank you for this. One question: What is that cool target you are shooting at? Where can I buy one?

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Polyfoam target by bogararchery.sk

[@stefanhansen5882]

@@CharliesRunningArchery Thanks. However, it was the circular target of straw I was after.

[@hamasmillitant1]

you could surgically remove a lamellae from armour with that grouping then put one through the hole :P i think asyrian suits me best(i think it will last the longest also because its sending more of its energy into arrow than others) but for what i want to use it for, skirmishing in reenactment where im meant to shoot them in legs at close range for safety reasons the amount of arrows able to be held in hand was also a large determining factor not that i think ill be holding 12 lol probably more like 7 or 8

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Assyrian is amazing, one of my all time favorites :)

[@Frendh]

Not sure if it was a conscious decision or not, but during the accuracy test the knocking was much smoother for the second bow when compared to the first and third bow. Title says bows under 300€ but I can't see any source for where they sell the bows for that price.

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Sure! It's bogararchery.sk :)

[@BledaTurk]

Sipahis are equestrian units, 90% of which are trained by overlords and can be compared to gendarmes in daily life. It is lightly armored cavalry. That is why they must use both spears, maces, swords and arrows, but they are the best horse archers of the time. The infantry arrow is the arrow used by the janissaries you described Turkish arrow. The janissaries are shooting units, they have to shoot accurately into the distance. 5 shots in 10 seconds at 100 meters should all be at a 5cm2. These are the best arrow-shooting infantry of their time. According to the need arrow types...

[@karlgunther-turkisharchery4272]

I would like to buy a 30 lbs green Sipahi Bow, but I think Vegh does no longer produce Sipahi. The new product is Fetih.... Vegh Turkish is the bow, I had as I started with Turkish thumb archery. Most of my students shoot the Vegh Turkish!

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

I think that they still make Sipahi, write them e-mail or facebook them :)

[@malachimatcho7583]

I contacted Peter Bogar about a short sipahi and he said more of them will be priced very soon. They are making them.

[@CrawlingAxle]

[@vox_dei_365]

What is the differences btw sipahi and turkish bows?

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

None, it's the same construcion. Sipahi is just the name of this bowmaker Vegh for another type of his short turkish bow.

Real Turkish bow's tension was too high, it was not like these bows. Everybody could not use this bow, because very difficult, but very fast and powerful.

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Probably wasn't easy back then. Now it's amazing tool, easy to use :)

[@spiderh]

​@@CharliesRunningArchery No, your bow's tension too low, and slow compared to real Turkish bows. Topkapi Palace has 240 libre (pound) bows.

[@CharliesRunningArchery]

Sure

[@BledaTurk]

@@spiderh Using the Turkish bow, especially setting it up, is very difficult and requires abnormal power. In fact, if we talk about real historical records, Safavid Shah (all the rulers of the Safavid state are Turkmen). He sends a bow to IV Murat Khan. He says that no one in the Safavid Empire could build this bow, which is true. Murat IV receives this gift in his court and tells his grand viziers to install it, but no one else can. Finally, 4. Murat sets this bow in one try. After that 4. Murat Ordes to hung this bow and who can set this bow going to see him. This bow setted after 4.Murat by only one man.Crazy Hüseyin Paşa. 4. Murat after this he made Hüseyin Paşa Grand Vezir. This bow was later used by Murat IV to make 900-meter shots. This bow is hung on one of the doors of Topkapı Palace as a memorial.

[@BledaTurk]

It's like the Hungarian bow originated in France.... What's the difference between the Tatar bow, the Turkish bow, the Hungarian bow, ? Basic engineering is that these arrows are set up in reverse, this arrow comes from the same root.
