Spirit2, shb, Kassai avar?
Hi everyone! I want to buy cheep traditional like bow. Kassai or Samick? Spirit2, shb, Kassai avar? I'm shooting homemade 35# longbow, would 45# be to much? Some good shop in Hungary?
Kassai, hands down.
And if you can go to Hungary then get it straight from his place. Just call a few (say three or so) weeks in advance and both order it and agree on when you will come to pick it up.
In regards to strength: Going to 45 should be no problem. May take a few days to get used to, but no real problem. Could go for 40# if you want a really smooth draw right from start. Not knowing how your current bow draws makes it a bit difficult to say - a 45 # longbow feels different than a 45 # Mongolian, to give an example.

Can I put in a plea to keep the draw-weight down until you have mastered the technique? I have seen so many cases of good effort in learning technique spoiled by an insistence in drawing a manly bow-weight. You can shoot out to 100 metres with 35#. If you're not planning to kill anything yet, keep the weight down.

:D No killing. Yet. :D
Good plea, I think. I have no experience with that kind of bow, and Robno is right, different bows feel different, so I'll take 35# or 40#.
I like the look of Kassai bows, and possibility to choose among many different Kassai bows, to choose colors etc, but Samick have some other advantages. I can easier carry take down bow across border, I can use it for instinctive shooting, but also I can put sight on it, and Samick is like real company :D .
Can you tell me about their performance, that's what I need to know.

The Samick and other Korean bows are excellent; but they're really small. The Samick can unstring at higher draw-weights because it twists easily. Grozer's original Turlish design (leather covered) looks good and works well. Also, it has a really authentic C-shape recurve when unstrung and you can force it into a suitcase. For larger bows, I recommend Kassai's or Grozer's Hungarian / Avar style. Grozer thinks that the Hungarian traditional design is technically the best in his stable
