if people are interested, I might start a series called "the history of the bow and arrow" starting in stone age Africa to modern day Olympic archery, going into detail including specific processes of bow developments. btw i drew some diagrams to avoid complicated copyright issues if i used their original drawings.
@@HistoricalWeapons Videos on history would be great. Just bought an assyrian bow, and it is performing great. But I could not find much infos on historical assyrian bows, and don't know how close the replicas from let's say Grozer, Jackal, Bogar and AF are to the originals.
Yes please do you haft to man I don't watch much TV but I watch all your content brother your the best historian for archery we have in my my eyes so you make it will like it thumbs up all day man
The Yrzi bow represents the a point in time when the classical Elamite/Assyrian bow was falling out of favor and the classic Sarmatian/Parthian style was getting more acceptance. That is why it looks sort of an in between bow of the two styles
Compound was first used by Mason in 1886. Later proposed bow classification systems (Rodgers) made a distinction between a composite of different materials (sinew, wood, horn) and a compound of different parts (siyahs, limbs, handle). The trend is to restrict the term compound to the latest modern version invented by Allen in the 1960s, which was both a composite of different materials, and a compound of different parts.
the modern compound bow is somthing im interested to make a video on, gonna be a video with a lot more accessible resources to research..Although I cannot keep track of the models from 2000-2020s, so many models and brands, with many advertising content it is difficult to make it educational and not seem like a free promotion
It looks like a 10th century Magyar bow. Especially with the rigid non contact siyah. Cool looking bow. Wonder what the draw weight would have been. We’re there any arrows found with the bow so a guess could be made???
@@thehun313 thanks do you know where i can get photos of their hungarian archelogical finds? i want to make video about magyar and cuman bows but i need pictures of archeology
Great video man and I've never heard of bone being used as "Siyas" very interesting seeings how bone can take more force/strain. I wonder about the weight of bone
Excellent! Which replica (if any) of this now would you recommend? I'm really more interested in the Seljuk bow. 12thC or so, so advice on suitable replicas there. In fact as your videos progress one on the Seljuk takeover of Iraq, Syria and Asia Minor and their bows would be much appreciated.
If you want bows of the Achemeneid times then look at the Sarmatian bow from Jackal Archery and if you are looking for bows of Parthian, Late Roman and Sassanid times then look at the L6 Sarmata Bow from Grozer and the Simurgh Bow from Sarmat Archery
@@HistoricalWeapons I hope to see you draw that 240 lbs longbow one day. The way you are progressing you'll be able to draw it easily in just a few years. Hoping to see that video 😃
That's about the same timing as the Tatars & I have seen Tatar horse bow recreation of very similar design. Are they authentic though? It seems a very long way from direct Tartar activity though, but the age & design are uncanny. Perhaps it was a common technology of the time, perhaps trade or a battle prize or just parallel development..... Who knows.
@@HistoricalWeapons Yes, I know that the Tatar expansion was centuries later & in a different area. Peoples don't appear out of thin air though. Just suggesting a possible technological or trade connection really.

Please do!!!😆
@Dylan Tarpy yeah if you google history of bows the third search is a video game monster hunter LMAO

Subtitles added for vets
Lol he is talking about Roman bow not American bow
@@zhangtony3372 lol u didn’t watch
@@zhangtony3372 the modern compound bow was just a side mention about 1% of the video content not sure why people focus so much on it
O man that was great ! sweet video bro. love your content. your skills are great man. looking forward to more
I appreciate it! how was the audio, i was worried too loud?
@@HistoricalWeapons no man its great. keep doing what your doing.
Very interesting sir!

no arrows found for that bow and modest replicas would estimate around 50-70 lbs...(sammy's replica is on the low side)
@@thehun313 thanks do you know where i can get photos of their hungarian archelogical finds? i want to make video about magyar and cuman bows but i need pictures of archeology
Cześć, fajny film.
Pozdrawiam.
No i na razie.

This channel is a goldmine

Current no commercial replica exist. You can ask Toto alharist to make a fiberglass one
glad i found your channel! very interesting stuff, keep it up man!
Very good brother grate little documentary
Legendary

Thanks For educational vids I’d rather look for people who own hornbow variants and take vids there
My personal collection is too much now
@@HistoricalWeapons

@@srinjoyroychoudhury7034 i cant draw it but thanks man
@@HistoricalWeapons
You will be able to in a few years. Practice with the Tiron for a couple of years and then you will see you can. I have full faith
Interesting!
Epic
Tendon and sinew are synonymous. I don't understand the differentiation in your video 🤔
sinew from leg. tendon in this case from neck
Wow
Educational
Grozer now has a design of this bow he calls the roman bow. wonder if it is worth checking out over his Persian bow?
Yeah it’s a late Roman bow of Sassanian hunnic design
@@HistoricalWeapons Are there any specific bows you would recommend for someone looking to do sassanid/persian archery?
@@mr.sandman770 what time period
@@mr.sandman770 for Sassanian I recommend alibow tang dunhuang for low budget and grozer for higher budget
@@HistoricalWeapons Thank you very much, I was looking for Sassanian archery. I will keep those in mind

Tatars are a few hundred years later. First mention is around 14th century
@@HistoricalWeapons Yes, I know that the Tatar expansion was centuries later & in a different area. Peoples don't appear out of thin air though. Just suggesting a possible technological or trade connection really.
41 # I think you’re missing 1 digit.
nope. these are based on historical dimensions and these are bows 2000 years ago. not battle of argincourt
even 41lb@28" is performing excellently 33 gram arrow doing about 170 fps thats a lethal bow
good editing
Does Sammy Dee have a UA-cam channel?
not that i know of
