    The early Mongolian Yuan style Jebe Gen2 by AF Archery
    We needed a bit warm up together, but then this bow was impressive and I guess after 1000 shots it will do 34” at least 33” safe.
    So please do not force your bow in the beginning, take it slow with drawing to the max. Has a good speed, almost no vibration.
    Great shooter! And before the video I got the price wrong, the bow is listed with USD299.

    I enjoyed this review. Perhaps it's just my personal preference...this is a pretty bow...however, I think I like the first version better visually. The nice wood grain of the original somehow imparts an aura of higher quality. Gen1 seems more real than the synthetic look of this new Gen2 version. Merely personal opinion regarding aesthetics. Both seem very effective functionally. I've enjoyed your videos (and lovely photography) during your time in Malta. An unforgettable era of your life. So nice that we have the opportunity to join you on your adventure to a new era in Austria...even if vicariously. As for your collaboration with Jorg, I think we all look forward to having the two of you "Show Us It's Features!"

    "Look at this bow" Yes look at that bow, very good looking bow. 299$ is a great price for a bow that looks like that, and has the quality crafting of AF. Looks like a solid bow to shoot.
    Great review as always.

    Superb review! The touch of dry humor is so nice. Have been pondering getting a bow like this and learned that AF also have a bamboo version that is just lovely on the eyes. Wood finish instead of the yellow coating.

    Jebe, also spelled Jebei, was one of Ghengis Khan’s generals. He was instrumental in the campaigns against the Jin Dynasty, Khwarezmid Empire, as well as the Cumans and Kipchaks. He was finally defeated at the Battle of Kalka River. Jebe’s success and unorthodox tactics were said to rival that of Subutai - who was one of only six generals in recorded history to have never lost a single battle. 🐴🏹🇲🇳

    The 1st Gen Zhie Bie was already very attractive to me, although it’s been impossible for me to order at AF at that time. The shape of 2nd Gen looks great, too! ☺️
    Yeah, the brown/yellow color on the back and the decoration on the belly wouldn’t be my choice as well, but that’s personal taste 😁
    Thank you so much for the nice review (despite the cicadas) and a good start in Austria!

    I love the shape of this bow, but I think if it was a birch bark with the rest of it looking the same it would be more appealing! Seems to perform well enough, I think it will eventually make 34" my Sai Cai acted the same way. Looking forward to seeing your reviews from Austria, no Cicadas there!

    It’s a really nice looking bow and seems to shoot really well. But I do think if you say it will draw 34 it should draw 34 with out having to work up to it!!! And I do agree with that Carmel color no go but a rusty marbly blotchy burnt orange with the black would be really sweet. Take care my friend God Bless.

    Olá. Sou brasileiro e iniciante na arquearia. Descobri seu canal no youtube, me inscrevi e comecei a gostar da arquearia tradicional. Comprei um arco laminado no Aliexpress de 40 lbs. Pelo preço, em torno de $90, e para iniciar já está bom. É bem parecido com esse do vídeo. Acredito que seja Mongol. Aprendi muito com seus vídeos, que acompanho sempre. A prática do tiro com arco está trazendo muitos benefícios para mim. 👋👋👋Congratulações por compartilhar seus conhecimentos e boa sorte para você.

    What's that glove on your drawing hand? I want to try out thumb release but couldn't get a propper protection for my thumb at a local archery store.
    And look at this, you're moving to Austria? 😃 Which state? Are you going to open a business here?

    In your bow reviews you calculate the f-value; what is that used for? I found a reddit post saying it's calculated as the maximum draw length divided by the nock-to-nock length, but I'm unable to find out what it's used for.

      If you shoot thumb draw or slavic draw the arrow "supposed" to be on the right side as oppose to mediterranean draw(three fingers draw)- this stands of course for people drawing with right hand.
      Check for those draws techniques on youtube. You can find a lot of valuable information.
