    Nawalny Xerxes is one of my top favorites, the looks, the performance, everything ^^ Awesome review as always, and loving the new, fancy camera moves, gives the video a cinematic feel 👍

    Oh my! Another brilliant bow from Lukasz! 😅
    I have already a picture of my future mini Xerxes in mind with a wonderful Persian painting on it… I need to save money for this 😄
    Thank you so much for the inspiring review, dear Armin! ☺️🙏

    Hey! I've asked this before, but, I would like to ask again: Could you please do some kind of wide-covering basics video (videos?) Around here there are no archery teachers of any kind, not even that "nice old man down the street" type people who can teach me. I have been doing archery off and on for several years now (wanted it to be consistent, but, multiple severe injuries made that impossible). And I really love it, I've been watching and loving your content for years, most of my bows are based off your recommendations (and they're great!) But, even with a good range set up in my large back yard, and really trying to pay attention to your videos and looking at things like WikiHow etc; well, I would REALLY REALLY REALLY appreciate you doing a kind of beginner's course. Talk, even if just briefly, about different types of bow, the pros n cons of each; talk about the parts of the bow (names, why important, what they do, how to spot a good vs bad one, etc); and then teach some core basics, like how to know how far back to draw without something ridiculous like a nearby friend with a tape measure (and does the draw length change on factors? If so: which factors, and why?) The different types of... grip? Like, 3-finger vs thumb ring vs ...? And the pros n cons of each. Ooh, also aiming advice, that would be extremely helpful! (Yes, some of aiming seems to be "just keep doing it and you'll intuitively understand after a while," but what if you try out your friend's new bow, a sort you've never used before: how can you at least start out on better footing? And, of course, adjusting for range differences.)
    As I said, I've been watching you for years, your kind manner, wise insight, and advanced knowledge are all really wonderful. I keep a couple screenshots of your best advice saved as sort of motivational posters because I really have been inspired by you: as a very badly chronically ill person I rarely get to exercise but when I do, I do archery, and it really is wonderful; and your frequent kind and friendly encouragement to just keep trying your best, well, despite being a cliché, you saying it really does inspire me! 🤗 I keep doing my best, and part of that determination comes from you! Thank you so much!
    So I would REALLY LOVE IT if you could please consider doing a sort of "Archery 101" video teaching; and I'm sure loads of your fans would also love it, and it would help get even more people, all around the world, into archery!
    So, please, at least consider it: you could even make it something we have to pay for to download: that would be fine! Plus we get to support you! Win-win, right?
    Thank you for listening, for being a spark of joy in many hard years, and for sharing your love of archery.
    PS: no, I am not trying to flatter you into accepting my request: my praise and thanks are fully honest and fully sincere.
    Thank you, and I really do hope you say yes.
    And, thinking about it: the paid download might be the best way to do this somewhat more specific-yet-broad and in-depth/longer program. Food for thought.

    Would you say you were going past the max 28" draw? I draw closer to 31" and would love to get a small bow like this, at some point.
    Your content is so good! Keep it up 🤙

    Hallo, Armin. Majority of makers makes fixed not bending bow handles. I do not understand why. Could you explain why bending handle is something to avoid?

    Hi Armin
    Another amazing review. How would you compare it to the short Monolith Turkish bow?
    Thank you

    • @ArminHirmer
      @ArminHirmer  7 місяців тому

      Turkish is a bit more forgiving and precise from the beginning. Mini Xerxes is just more fun :)

  • @amirg5912
    @amirg5912 Рік тому

    Is there any carbon in this now? Off topic, the birds eye view was a great way to see your form, khatra, back tension and any twisting done in the shot. Might be a good resource for future students, if you include more of those

    I'm such a sucker for small and powerful bows. Hope it's gonna be around 5 years from now cuz I'm gonna get stronger and I'm gonna get this! When you draw the bow, it just looks so beautiful I can't explain it! T_T T_T

    i wonder what exactly is meant my minimum arrow weight of zero. seems to imply you could dry fire it without possibility of damage. although i would never do that even if the bow maker said it is fine.

    I live in South Africa and to become now a gun-license to buy a gun for self-defense has become impossible, while the bad-guys don't care about this.

    Wenn ich den Preis, bei Navalny, zusammenrechne, komme ich für die zusätzlichen 'Sonderanfertigungen' auf 445,- (was?€?$?) zusätzlich. Da ist noch kein Grundpreis angegeben. Obwohl Deine Tests überzeugend sind - jeder, schliesslich muß der Mensch von etwas leben- machen Deine Auftraggeber alles zunichte, mit "persönlicher Anpassung".
    Für einen Bogen von mehr wie 1.000 € sollte ein Test unnötig sein- sonst denke ich schon mal an Schönreden.
    DU machst die Tests sehr gut, was ich, auch ohne Kenntnis der Inselaffensprache, verständlich finde.
    Da frage ich mich auch gleich, WO die deutschsprachigen Beiträge bleiben, welche Du angekündigt hast.
