    I bought two YMG fiberglass bows and they are very nice. I like the efficiency for their size and the flexibility. The nylon bag that comes with the bow is also very convenient for the transport of the bow and accessories.

    Larger Korean bow with a big Oomph! Nice to see that the bows also have a size option. Would be great if the max draw length was on the page too, but I guess that's based on the bow size. Are the models very different from each other, Or is is mostly visual?

    I assume that price includes postage from Freddie Archery as the black shadow is the same price, but I've found the black shadow on sale in the UK all be it only in the 48" version with no sleeve and fancy paperwork for £136. Still another great looking bow though.

    what a timing. ive been looking into ymg because of their availability of heavy weight. other certified bow, hmg, also sells up to 90lb but ive been getting some strange answers to my questions about their “certified” products.
    though ive heard of bad things about ymgs value for their price, i guess ill have to go for it since thats the only certified bow with 90+ lb draw weight.

      Certified as in the little sticker at the ear with korean trad archery association written?

      Rolldy Sharpshooter
      wow. one more story to add on my warranty/repair horror story list.
      yeah after ymg owner broke off from the original ktb company, he became really business oriented. they keep charging more and more for things like natural finish and more often they use short strips of birch which end up looking like patches of different colors. (you can actually see that from freddiearchery.com) and the grip became this cheap rubber plastic which you cant customize to fit your hand unlike typical korean foam grips. still uses typical plastic string bridges which cost 50 cents a piece and costs twice as much as other laminated korean bows like kaya, hmg, and segye.
      at this point i feel like maybe ill just buy a grozers biocomposite bow for the same price. that way i actually own a horn bow with high #.

      Well, I have a 48” black shadow (same construction as this one) which says it can be drawn to 31ish, and it starts stacking bad at about 29”. The 53” will probably be okay at 33”, but 31” is more realistic.

    Hi Armin, how does it compare to other Freddie siblings like the Black Shadow? Always wanted this bow but hard to find it in 53" in the poundage that I want so had to go with the Zenith.
    Another thing, in the brochure it says that the 53" bows can draw up to 33.4" draw length but as you said it is until 31" that this is not true?

    I believe u said in the beginning... Long side on the bottom...
    But other videos u say long side on top.
