First I recently got my first Ali Bow in the mail and love it (30lb Tartar). I like the price and so far the quality. Second, I share and recommend your channel to everyone. Upon taking up the hobby of archery less then a year ago, I seen many different videos, but yours sir stuck out and now it's one of two archery channels I watch (The other being NuSensei). You are informative, and entertaining and for some one like me who is learning you make it easy to follow what your saying. You seem like a natural teacher. But, every so often you will do a video that is a little off archery and that I really enjoy. Some time ago you did a little video just about relaxing, calming ones minds. I found so useful I shared it in a depression and anxiety group I am in (indeed I applied some of what you said in my own day to day life), it got some great feed back. Goes to show your advice expands well beyond archery. Great video as always sir.
Thank you
Purchased! 35# 28” It will replace my fiberglass Tatar “Vader” as the durable, all-weather, bring-it-anywhere, longer-draw, try-it-out practice bow in my arsenal. Thank you for maintaining your channel and your guidance, Armin! 🙇🏻♂️👍🏹
I'm a novice archer. But I'm watching as many videos as I can to learn. ILF recurve, compound, Asiatic (my favorite), and none of them are quite as informative and educational as yours. You are the best. Please keep the videos coming!
thank you
When I see this video I fall in love with that bow, all your videos are very educational.
Thanks, a timely review. Looking forward to comparisons of these great, step-up bows.
I bought this bow---and started archery---because of your videos. Thanks! The bow seems perfect for me. It took more than a month to arrive, so I also got a wood laminate Toparchery recurve from Amazon in the meantime. Also less than $100, and a really nice bow (granted, I have very limited experience). I'm shooting Euro draw on the recurve and thumb on the Tibetan. All I do is based on your videos, and I've learned a lot. I'm not sure I understand arrows yet. I'm wishing I had gotten bamboo from Alibow that matched the Tibetan when I bought it because the 3 different length and spine arrows I have are all quite different in feel and flight. Thanks again Armin.
Armin still going very strong. Nice review, have been wondering about this one myself!! Keep going! :-)
Yes! My favorite channel👊 Allways enjoy it your videos.
I enjoy watching you shoot so relax. Thanks for sharing Mr. Armin✌😀
Yeah mate, I bought this bow today, just because of this video, and I have never shot an arrow in my life before. So, I may smack myself in the foot at first, but yeah, I'll be alright … Your videos are informative, and entertaining, great job there mate!
Hab genau DEN Bogen bestellt. Promo hat funktioniert. Jetzt warte ich voller Vorfreude. Danke für die Review.
Yes! I was hoping you'd review this one!
Thank you, i may well add one of these bows to my archery collection. My first bow in 1957 was a great fiberglass bow.
They both look like pretty nice bows thank you for the info once again.
About time Armin👍👍👍👍👍👍.Your videos rock .
So I don’t need a quiver! Many thanks Armin. You’ve been a font of information and I much appreciate it.
I try not to miss,the reviews that Mr Armin show because I don't want to miss any thing that I can learn fromm
I just received my Qinghai Fiberglass Bow today and absolutely love it. I've always loved and appreciated the beauty of laminated bow, but fiberglass is much more practical for me living here in SW Florida, where the heat and humidity are so often outrageous. Mine is 35# and covered with black leather. The workmanship id wonderful and the pull is smooth as can be. Thank you for your informed and complete review on this bow, as it helped me make my decision on which bow to buy.
I ordered the short version of this bow back in april and finaly received it yesterday.
So far I think I shot about 100/150 arrows on 8meter distance and this bow is so lovely!
Thank you for your review and also for replying on my e-mail back in the day.
Soon I'll start my way into thumb release, so far I'm loving to simply shoot this 30lbs bow instead of my 40lbs bamboo laminated haha
Can't wait to shoot this bow on a longer distance then in my attic ^^
Thnx again!
Great review. These Alibow fiberglass bows shoot well and are really well made. The only problem I've had with them is that the suede arrow pass doesn't last too long. I've replaced the suede with lightly waxed twine whipping and this seems to work quite well.
Yep. Agree and did exact same thing.
I shot my 40lb version of this for the first time today. What a lovely bow to shoot. It took 1 month to get here to the UK & import duty was £20.30 Well worth the money. Thanks Armin for the great review & Alibow for the great product.
I was expecting this review after your AF's Qing Bow Review.. as both seems same.. I also experienced them... And experienced good punch but vibration also.. As always..Armin..Very nice review..
This time I got the bow before your review but nevertheless I am always guided by your imparted knowledge in buying bows and of course with Alibow, I can always make sound judgement.
Thank you for the confirmation for this bow. I am now enjoying long draws.
As always .
Maraming Salamat Armin!
So Useful! thanks
I appreciate the work you put into this channel. I currently have a snake bow and a laminated Qinghai from Alibow. Both based on your reviews. Compound archery is very popular where I live and I shoot that too. This channel has been an invaluable resource to get started in "real" archery. So thank you!!!
After watching your videos several times (of course i have watched you other videos as well on every type of alibow, makes me want to pull my own hair), take a look closely on the draw length, quality, and price... finally i just ordered this qing hai bow, 50 lbs to Alibow. Thanks for your voucher, Armin. Now just patiently wait for the bow to come in my hand (and just wait for my wife scold to me as well :D)
Now having it in my hand after series of exhausting process from custom, needs a license from Police etc 😑, very smooth draw, a little handshock but when using heavier arrow feels nice and comfort, quite accurate and joy to shoot. If Alibow fiberglass bow feels nice like this, how much more the feeling of the laminated version of this qing hai bow? 😊
Danke für deine informativen Bogentests. Ich versuche anhand deiner Videos Bogenschießen zu lernen und habe mir auch den Bogen bestellt. Natürlich vergessen deine Prozente mit rein zu nehmen. 😅Naja beim nächsten Bogen. Danke für deine Arbeit und mach weiter so.👍
What a so nice style Armin!!!
Clean and efficient !!!!
Thank's for this review and that new lesson of high level archery style 👍😄
Richard Coeur de Lion 👍😎🏹🇫🇷
Dankeschön für den Tipp weiter und liebe grüße
This is going to be my first bow
Another lovely video review, Armin. I really like those arrows, the long Manchu fletch is graceful. I do hope there was nothing ominous behind the slow tolling of that bell!
The bells always pollute...
@@ArminHirmer I hope they are less intrusive than the music was!
A Manchu Peacock; I've seen/and am a Subscriber of channels that have really high subscriber numbers, and there is a lot of negative comments on them (so much so one disabled the comment on his channel). Better to have low subscriber numbers and good, thoughtful comments (or at the very least nice comments) than "bashing" type comments. You do what you do best and don't worry about the rest :-)
Nice bow good shot
Great again.Nice for the price.
I have this Bow in the Short Version. And using it for LARP.
(Larp arrow are Heavy and always 28“)
Thanks for the great review. I purchased the Alibow Tatar after your review of that bow and have been loving practicing the thumb release technique. After seeing this review I put in an order. How can you go wrong for 80 bucks? Love your channel.
When I shot this bow it felt better than it should for the price :-)
Beautiful
I'm sold!!!!! I have been waiting for just the right review of a bow that fits my needs on ALL levels. went to Alibow and will order...put it in the cart just to make sure I get the right specs based on your review. I just need to talk to them about the $9999.00 shipping charge if over 8kg shipping weight ...I specified 45# at 32 inches of draw length because 40# is the accepted min draw weight for whitetail deer. thank you so much for this review. 4-6 weeks wait on getting it...I'll go crazy!!!!
It's worth the wait. These bows are so much fun to shoot and they're practically indestructible.
I couldn't decide between this and the Han Long from A F Archery. Bought the Han because i thought it would be easier to shoot for a beginner. Seems like they both are quite good though, considering the price
Another great review Armin.
Have you any experience or thoughts to do with Alibow's fiberglass Kaiyuan?
sure a good one too, never shot it though
Nice,Great bow for trhe price.
Which of the laminated bows would you choose and why? I'm having a hard time making a decision on looks and hand shock
Hi i was wondering , if i want to start out with this bow and had never done thumb draw should i get 20lbs or 25lbs to pratice get my form right ? Thanks for listening !
I like the noise of this bow
Do you measure the drawlength from the belly or from the back of the bow?
What would be a good one for hunting/ shooting targets im 6’3 175lb and what pound do you think I should get
Looks pretty, shoots 150 with 13gpp - Bomber!😜
Hey Armin, Edel again
Just curious, what type of arrow pass does this bow come with? Does it have the "pearl" inlay arrow pass like the laminated Qinghai or does it lack arrow pass completely. I ordered Mughal Speed nocks to replace stock plastic nocks and also decided to order one of Custom Thumb Rings rayskin arrow passes also while waiting for the bow to arrive. Just wondering if the rayskin arrow pass will work for this bow?
Thanks
Hi, I don’t remember but I think either felt or rayskin
I'm looking for a moderate priced "horse bow" to learn thumb draw.
Currently I'm shooting a 26lbs recurve (30" draw lenght) and would go for a 20lbs horse bow.
Is it possible to shoot this bow non manchu like, anchoring somewhere in the face?
Can I share this bow with my son (22lbs recurve, 24" drawlenght)?
Thanks for your great reviews!
Oh, that might be the bow that gets me into Manchu. If you are using heavy arrows because they are long, does it make sense to use a low poundage bow? I’ve pulled 40lb thumb draw before not much problem, would that be sufficient for this bow using long arrows?
Was that a knife throwing setup in the background at the end of the video?
the arrows need to be on the heavy side. yes, new targets for throwing
10:00 I'll have to remember that one 😂😂
I just got this bow based on this review, 45# @ 28", ~56# @ 33". I can't believe what a BEAST it is. My 650 grain arrows are going into my compressed foam target all the way up to the fletchings. Now I just need to figure out how to shoot accurately with this long draw technique. Maybe a topic for a future video...?
Hehe enjoy
And yeah it's on the list of videos to come
Great review as ever Armin - what weight were the Manchu arrow you were flinging out at the end ? How do you think it would handle 500 gr wood arrows ?
30#@28 will be 45@35 yeah think they will work
@@ArminHirmer Thanks for your help - I will probably get some slightly longer and lighter arrows in time but ill use what Ive got for now
@@ArminHirmer thanks again - I have just ordered one and got 10% off using your code - so an even better price !
Nice. Enjoy
Where do alibow measure their draw lengths from?
So i am looking into getting into Asiatic archery. I have a 70 pound compound, easy to draw, 50 lbs traditional recurve, and a static recurve that i made at 30 lbs. I have mad 3 other longbows all around 35lbs and have a 70 lbs warbow i am currently making. I practice thumb release with my 30 lbs and the stress on my thumb is no issue, my Mediterranean draw is 29in, and it seems my thumb draw is around 30 or 31in. I am 6'2" 215 and in good shape. I was thinking on getting a Qinghai Tibetan bow at 50lbs as i already have a 30 pound bow to practice thumb release. I've been doing compound archery since i was 12 years old, and traditional since i was 21. I am 34 years old. I would like to believe that a 50lbs thumb draw would be fine for me. Any thoughts would be appreciated?
So bought this bow as my 1st Asiatic bow based upon your review and budget and still waiting on it's arrival. Since the review from 2 years ago, have you had any changes or suggestions for arrows besides those sent by Alibow?
This now is not so demanding, depending on poundage you can use nice carbon arrows
How about a video on best bows for hunting? There is 40lb minimum draw weight for bow hunting here in Canada. Great videos Armin!
I dont hunt... so I might not be the best one to do that video :D
@@ArminHirmer lol fair enough! But I think I would still take your word over anyone elses haha!
Have you shot the Ling que by AF archery?
Is it durable?
Could you do a review on the ottoman kids bow from mamluk archery
instantly, when they send me one
Love your videos very informative. When you do the comparison with alibows fiberglass manchu this question has bothered me for ages with alibow. The max draw weight for the fiberglass manchu is 10# less than the max draw weight for the fiberglass Qinghai, so 50# vs 60# if i remember correctly from their site.
Now the question is, is the qinghai more powerful? Most would assume yes if it has a higher weight however manchus tend to be more powerful than other bows so theres the kicker. Then theres the different bow length options they have and how that factors in, are they different bows or different strings? Bc if we are increasing brace hight then we are increasing power and draw weight. So what is alibows most powerful fiberglass bow? Also i mean power as in throwing heavy arrows rather than range/speed, thats more for the likes of the turkish bow.
I guess the Yarha is the most powerful
@@ArminHirmer If I had to guess, I would think that the Qinghai would be more powerful, because the draw weight for that is measured at 28" rather than 34". That's about 75#@33", versus 50#@35" for the Yarha. Two inches of draw length will make a lot of difference in both energy stored and efficiency, but not enough to overcome a 50% higher draw weight.
My Qinghai is 55#@28", but it goes up to 67#@32" (I haven't measured it at 33", since my arrow shafts are only 32").
Thanks for the nice review,
Take-down rider bow from Elite Bogen please 🏹
I wish, please write them a message that you want me to test this bow - maybe they will send one. I guess they wont :D
@@ArminHirmer Okey i will , and please promise me you send it to me after the review 😉
Hi, I am if you had a choice between this bow and the af archery long hun, which one would be your choice? Did you ever get a chance to shoot AF archery Mongolia bow and if so how does that compare?
I should get the Mongolian fr AF. When you don't find the bow on my channel, then I didnt make a review. Both I guess are quite similar. In fiberglass I would give an edge to Alibow still
Hi Armin great video! Which fiberglass bow would you suggest for hog hunting?
Depends on your max draw.length
30 inches, which fiberglass bow have max ft/lbs per lb draw weight?
Nice piece of kit.
Is there any particular reason why you don't seem to put any twists in the strings?
Cheers.
I always try first how it come out of the box
@@ArminHirmer Have you found that trying different bracing heights makes much difference to these type of bows?
@@malcolmjones4108 I've found that it depends on the bow and string. Of the two fiberglass Alibows I have, the Turkish required quite a bit of twisting to get it to a better brace height for smoother, more consistent shooting, but the Qinghai didn't actually require any twisting (I put a few twists in it to keep the string strands together, but it didn't need the brace height changed).
I have a question, you will see I bought my bow about 3 months ago and apparently there is nothing wrong with it but let's say that it feels lighter than when it arrived. i feel like it dropped its draw weight.
Is this normal?
You need to measure the draw weight don't rely on your feeling. They usually don't drop
Could you tell me which bow is better : AF Archery Han Long or this Tibetan by Alibow? I am torn between those two, answer me please. Thank you in advance!
They are both nice but different. Han shoots smoother as non contact. Depends what you are looking for
Armin Hirmer This is going to be me 2nd bow( my 1st was too heavy for me) so, does this “kick” influence the accuracy, what this kick actually is?
I thought the draw length on the website is 28 inches? The arrows you got are 32.5 inches? I'm trying to figure out what length arrows I should order.
Always check the max draw. The poundage of the bow is measured at 28" but I think all bows from Alibow have a longer draw
@@ArminHirmer I was looking to order a 45 pound.
So finally arrived and my Mrs. Boss will not let me open to try it out and says I have to wait until Christmas morning. GGrrrrr.... LOL.
Hahahaha
How does this bow compare to the ali bow fiberglass mongolian?
both great bows, I would go with the mongolian
Аre there disadvantages to a high foc arrow?
when they are too tip heavy it can cause nose dropping too early
Aligod it seems at this point
