i didn't know about that. i wonder how come i never seen this way of stringing online. this method is easier when there is no one to help or you have no other device to use.
Thank you for demonstrating this technique so clearly. I am now using it to string a Hungarian bow with long syhas. I was having great difficulty finding a technique I was comfortable with that didn’t require assistance.
Great vid. I use a similar version only standing up to string my H1 Heavy draw (100@28”) I find though it can be difficult to use this method if you are short (like me). It takes some small adjustments to creep your hand up onto the top siyah to get the leverage before going for the full pull. You seem to be tall with long arms so just thought I would add this as you prob don’t have the prob that shorter archers can encounter when trying to use this method to string heavy asiatic style bows.
Very interesting video to see how you do it.But I can’t see somebody weighing another 125 pounds added on to your body frame .That left thigh will be trapped.Thanks for the video.
Thank you very much. I watch your videos more and more (basically every new at this point) since they are so helpful and informations in them are not easy to find (at least in my case) and to take it even further, the way of what you are showing in your videos (on topics which may have already been on UA-cam) is unique. For example your videos with tong-ah are my most favorite, others UA-cam archers dont show such details, use other techniques etc. I hope my english makes sense. Thank you really very much and please continue with your videos :-)
@Michal Dante, thank you for the kind words. i treat my videos as my archery vlog more than anything. but i love to have more informative videos in the future as i learn more. thanks for patience. :)
Do you happen to know where i can buy a war bow? I have been looking for Scythian war bow for a while now without any luck. I would appritiate if you could help me out.
i don't know what type of bows you like but if this helps. Alibowshop.com they have heavier poundage. not many options but you can checkout their website. Daylitearchery.com also carry some 70~80# bows. check their website. MRbows.com this is one i got my Tiron from. different designs and more options here. Afarchery thehy have some more options than other websites. many kinds of fiberglass bow in higher poundage. hope this info helped. :)
hi, i have not tried any longer bows. longest bows i use this method is about 52" NTN. i think it can be done but will be tough due to length of the bow if you are short and have a long bow.
@@iyoo1I am not as short as you but I am not tall (5’8) and I have a h1 heavy draw 100@28” and you can do it but it takes a few goes to get the right leverage and you have to really stretch and creep you hand up onto the top siyah. It’s not as smooth as this video as you have to make small adjustments with you top hand as you bend the bow.
There is a depiction of a Scythian warrior using this exact method
i didn't know about that. i wonder how come i never seen this way of stringing online. this method is easier when there is no one to help or you have no other device to use.
@@iyoo1 It is depicted in pottery (Ancient Greek )
Just got a recurve bow today. This made stringing it easy. Thank you!
awesome. good to hear. thank you :)
How heavy was your bow?
@@dylansandberg6727 45 lb draw. Stringing it standing is awkward for me, which is why the crouching method worked great.

nice, is it the same with longer bows? like the manchu
it will be depends on size and poundage. but, yes. and i use this method to string my Yarha 2, 80#.

@@iyoo1Thanks a lot.
I'm short, and my bow is 115# @ 30" 57" long reflexed in it's unstrung state and very stiff from the outset. I tried, but no chance at all.
how about using a waist cable. that method works for me with my Tiron (120-130)
Me struggling with my 50# korean bow 😂
I am going to try that today. I have three that try to cripple me.🤪
great. be careful with heavy bows, though. safety first. ;)
@@iyoo1 Thanks, my problem is a torn rotator cuff, so anything over 50 # is difficult. I'm 73 and will leave the heavy stuff to you.
@@ronsarchery6378 yes, sir. take care of that shoulder. :)
I’m curious, exactly what kind of bow are you using in this video?
this is qing hai bow. this bow does not come in this poundage anymore.
also, this is actually more of a training bow. :)
@@iyoo1 thank you for your answer 🙏🏻
Hi would this method work for shorter people? Am very short 5’5”

It’s not as smooth as this video as you have to make small adjustments with you top hand as you bend the bow.
horn bow?
nope. just fiber-glass.
So only Hungarians know how to do this? :) Forget about what you do!
if your in a hurry to unstring you can use scissors...
LOL
show me another way to pull the string?
as the video is not very convenient
