- Archer from historical archery group Black Falcon (Fekete Solyom) from Marcelova, Slovakia, demonstrating traditional Korean bow, shooting performed with thumb ring. Location Pribinova Nitrawa festival, Nitra, Slovakia 2018.
Do you people there shoot by thumb-drawing for your own traditional bows? Impressive that this man does the thumb drawing quite good.
We use long arrows here in Korea. We draw past the ear, almost to the shoulder. Draw length extended. So the acceleration gets longer and stronger. Analgous to a longer barrel for a howitzer. Longer the barrel, bigger the acceleration. The unit is the ratio of the barrel length over the bore size. '52' is 52 times. The range of a 58 (a very special, very expensive barrel, not practical yet) is more than two times of a 52.
The secret: long arrow, long draw, comparatively lighter tension.
Since the draw is long,(enough to go over your ear) it is difficult to handle a bow with a tension more than 45 ponnds. 60 pounds are for a strong male. Women uses a bow with less than 40 pounds.
The trajectory becomes flatter as the tension increaes.
We practice with a target 145 meters far. I suppose in the old days they used bows as snipers. 7o% of the terrain is mountains, hills, valleys and creeks and rivers. Ideal for a sniper.
In the demonstration we showed 2 pieces of korean bows, they are originally from South Korea. We were there more times to attend competitions. The bow what you see in the video is from modern material, but we have original korean horn bow from an old master, what were never stringed and only we are showing it to the audience, but you could not see it in the video.
my dear, why were there no announcements about the tension strength of the bows, the speed and weight of the arrows, the quality of the metal tips and the material of the targets? Without this, what is shown is a circus and nothing more.
@@greatnoblelord maybe you did not made a demonstration for people who never saw a bow. If you will use too much data, is not interesting for people, and they will go away. Here the main goal for people is to see the different forms of each types of bows and get basic informations about. We are traditional archers more than 20 years, world champions in traditional archery, so I think we know what we are doing. And after the short demonstration who is interested can visit us at our jurta and get more information.
@@bogararchery-bogarijaszat-7350 perhaps I was misled by the title under the video and I expected that the video is similar to the video from the Tods channel. If the headline revealed that this is a circus performance, then I would not have such questions. I watch similar videos as options for reconstructing historical events.
Absolutely right. This event in Nitra was for WIDE audience, ranging from children to elder people. And considering discussion it is far more valuable than some circus performance.
no, people look and believe what they see - the law of psychology, if they see how knights in armor die under a hail of arrows, then they believe that it was so. And the question of why, if the bows were so good, they were replaced by primitive rifles, from which it was difficult to hit a dense formation at fifty paces, appears only in smart people like me. So, that from this representation only harm@@lifescanofslovakiamusicand4802
Good shot!
so light weight yet so powerful
In Korea, the standard distance between the archer and the target is 145m (476 ft.).
Thanks for info man. You are from South Korea i guess ? For this show it was downright impossible to place target like that (check a lawn under Nitra Castle walls on GoogleMaps and its about 10-20 m to place a target) and this was very brief demonstration of various bows. And wide audience from children to people not involved into archery art was far more interested to see how some kind of arrow can pierce steel plate or kevlar :). But apart from that, this group from Marcelova, Southern Slovakia, has nice choreography and they are quite skillfull.
@@lifescanofslovakiamusicand4802 Yes, I am, and I really appreciate your covering Korean bows. Korea has a long tradition of archery and bow making, and Korean horn bows have been a sought-after item for foreigners for almost 2 millenia, at least until the era of rifles. Traditional chinese character for Korean people, 夷, can be broken into two characters, 大 and 弓, meaning "big bow", and naturally we take pride in them.
Yes, we know, we shot this distance more time in Korea at World Traditional Archery Festival
@@user-et8se3od1p Baby, is that why you've always been won over by all the neighbors?
@@greatnoblelord What do you mean by "always"? Korea has been kicked around by the neighbors since Chosun Dynasty but before that time, we pretty much ruled. That is, for more than five thousand years. All China and Japan could do is to rewrite the history to hide their past.
Of course, this is way before your people even formed a country, so your lack of knowledge of that era is very understandable.
awesome
Very good
Nice
Keren 👍
keren이 무슨 뜻인가요?😮
dude pulls with no thumb ring wow
This guy is on the photo of homepage of their archery club... Maybe his thumb is genetically from some hardened steel :D
The people sat to the left of the target seemed a bit close! 😰 Nice demonstration though
Yes RooRoo, this is always a bit of a problem there, smaller space under Nitra castle. There is even a pathway to restaurant next to target, but closed during the show :)
공부 많이 한것같다 잘쏜다
someone was stood down range?
Fortunately only thick ballistic foam target :) Pathway towards the restaurant was blocked during this session.
That looks like the Kaya KTB bow idk
Ill let exact definition of the bow on experts Nayli :) Basically this archery group was there to demonstrate several types of historical bows from around the world to wide audience.

you need dojigae to string korean traditional hornbow, this is a laminate most probably
Dojigae is that frame for reshaping warped bows ?
@@lifescanofslovakiamusicand4802 it's the banana shaped thing used to help to string the bow
Late to the party, but this video just came up on the recommended list for me.
Hornbows are laminated bows, the layers being sinew, wood or bamboo and horn glued together with fish bladder glue. The bow being used in this video is called a 'garang goong' or in English a carbon bow. Strips of carbon fibre are one of its laminates. As it is only slightly curved in the unstrung state and given its length, it has to be a carbon bow.
Unstrung hornbows have a "C" shape to them, although old, well used bows do straighten out a little bit. While it is possible to string hornbows when they are new and have the C shape, the archer better be experienced with hornbows and know the personality of the bow. Do ji gae (I call them "bow forms") are an absolute must for stringing new bows. Until the archer has conditioned the bow to be stable without the do ji gae, they should be used as part of the stringing process and even into the tuning process, especially if the bow looks like it wants to unstring itself.
Kámo já tu nevidím v chatu nikoho jinýho než korejce. Tak když je to na Slovensku?
Nice to see that Korean people are interested in archery event from Slovakia :)
