The media could not be loaded. This bow is one of my favorites to shoot. It draws to about 31" but stacks weight after 28". I'd recommend carbon arrows with feathers (feathers compress unlike plastic and rubber fletchings meaning the riser won't interfere as much with the flight path). Because there's no arrow rests on a horse bow, you'll want to learn a khatra (twisting the bow to move it out of the arrows path). 25-35lb draw weight is perfect for beginners. INVEST IN A THUMB RING, it's so worth while for long shooting sessions. Like other reviews mention, the suede rubs off even with feather arrows and your khatra so I bought some cheap rayskin scraps to replace it. It shoots around 50 yards with decent accuracy. Can go up to 70-80 yards with a high draw though.

Pros:
-hungarian bows are probably the most forgiving of horse bows
-shoots really fast (especially with light arrows)
-great to practice thumb draw, khatra, and instinctual aiming
-cheap in price but great quality and fiberglass construction
-an absolute joy to shoot

Cons:
-limbs aren't as wide as mongol bows (but it doesn't affect much)
-it's a bit longer (52 inches when strung) than other styles of horse bows such as tatar or turkish bows
-suede arrow pass wears somewhat fast
-short siyahs (less speed than mongol how's but incredibly forgiving)
-bowstring is a bit thick so I'd recommend a Legend 54" AMO (actual length 50") bowstring

Recommendations:
-replace the bowstring (use the one they give you until it wears though)
-replacing the suede arrow pass with rayskin
-use feather arrows (500 spine for 40lbs or less) to prevent obstruction of arrow path
-watch Armin Hirmir videos on traditional shooting

Overview:
Get this bow! It's cheap, fast, and fun for traditional shooting. It is a bit long for a horse bow (tatar and turkish bows are shorter) but certainly usable on horse back. The construction is great minus the suede arrow pass but that barely affects much. Is it as accurate as a compound bow? No. Is it as fast as easy as a recurve? No. But for a fraction of the cost, it's a great traditional bow. I'd highly recommend buying it!

Guys and girls, this bow is excellent. I've had this bow (@ 45 lbs draw weight) since July 2016, and I've shot 150-200 arrows with it 5-7 days per week, every week. I haven't shot a bow in over 20 years, and that was summer camp as a kid. I was basically starting from scratch, and it showed.

Well, it's November now and it still shoots like a champ! It is very accurate and precise once you learn a shooting form you can be consistent with, and not just from a standing stance... I plan on hunting with it so I have been shooting in all kinds of positions: leaning around trees, lying on the ground, balancing on one leg while leaning over a log to get under branches, and you can hit what you want to hit with consistency no matter what if you learn how to shoot. According to my 3D deer target, I'm able to make kill shots on a consistent basis (80% or so) from all angles and positions, and with competition targets I'm typically getting groups that are 3-4" in total diameter from 25-30 yards... and I still have plenty of form flaws to fix.

I will update this to compare with my Bearpaw Slick Stick (50 lb draw weight, arrives in a week or so) since I am going to want the most consistent bow possible for my hunting adventures and it should be interesting to see how a 99 dollar bow compares to a 300 dollar bow that gets rave reviews from high profile archers claiming that you have to get a custom-made bow to get anything better.

However, this is the bow I'll be shooting from horseback.

The picture of the deer target is a single 12 arrow set of shots, and they were taken from all kinds of positions. The other picture is a grouping from 25-30 yards away, and was not my best shooting but it was ok overall. The potato in the middle was my intended target. You all may want to know that the arrows I am using are cheap and completely untuned... I hear that accuracy increases quite a bit when you actually take the time to tune your bow and arrows properly, but I haven't done that yet.

(I am a avid bow hunter and have tried my hand at being a bowyer. I have hunted many years with a compound and a traditional bow. This is a true bow and not a toy, so for first time archers, please do your homework and buy a light poundage bow. Also, please watch "how to" videos on youtube on how to string this style of bow and best practices for shooting and safety!)
Shipping:
I purchased the bow at the end of the year (2016) and received it in great shape. The box wasn't damaged and the bow didn't have any issues that might occur in some shipments of lightweight products. I have seen some reviews on youtube prior that showed the wooden siyahs to be scuffed with some black material, mine were clean without any scratches.

Initial thoughts:
The product's overall construction seems to be very good and balanced for a fiberglass bow. I haven't had a chance to do any substantial shooting with it yet, but plan to update this review once I have shot a good amount. The bow came in a nicely constructed "bow sock" and the string was wrapped around the sock. Initially I was surprised that the string wasn't a waxed and twisted string, but the string seems to be very strong and the serving on the eyes and along the arrow nock are impeccable. It was a little difficult to string at first, but this was due to my inexperience with this style of bow. Once I got it strung and started to exercise the "limbs" I found the bow to draw nicely. There were a few creaks here and there, but as any one would have, so be sure to exercise the limbs before drawing the string to any length that would be close to your full draw. I was able to shoot it the same day I received the bow, and found it to be a lot better than I had previously expected. There is a slight hand shock and wrist slap, but I didn't notice it since I was wearing a guard. All in all, at first glance this is a great bow! (I will be including more as I begin to shoot it more and more)

This bow is strong . Stringing it is a struggle but other than that nice solid bow .

Extremely well made and easy to string. Shoots like a dream!
