Saluki 55, do they sell shaft and ready arrows with the proper spine, or it´s all mixed?

The Y M Jang bow is the same YMG from Hwarang or other maker, sorry for asking i know J and G are diferent, but in Korean phonetics could be the same thing.

Anyone could talk more about the bamboo bow and the horn bamboo bow? Are they accepted in traditional competitions or just  horn bows are allowed?
Thanks
Gabriel

What´s a jang-gung and a jung-gung bow?

DEAGOL it´s really unfortunate this things are happening, but as HUN said this bow has a limit in drawing, if one does over stretch it it won´t stand it, i have a Windifighter and a friend of mine also has one, so far no problems, i also have a Hwarang YMG 53# that has a small problem, the string move away from the bridges, and if you keep shooting like 3 in a ow without fixing it, it´ll snap out, that´s how i discovered. The bow shoots well, but has this minor inconvenience, i can´t pass this bow along as this has this problem, i´ll just keep it, cos i know how to handle it.

EM what happened to your KTB after one year? What´s the lifespan of a bow?

I believe the Kaya, has to review this minor errors and try to sort them out, if it wants to continue their business, most complaints are regarding bad gluing lamination split  and so forth, thing which don´t look to difficult to solve. perhaps those wraps near the tips and grips could be a standard in all their bows.

Felidae, i have the same problem with my Hwarang YMG bow i bought from him in Qinghai in July, i align the string in the midle of the bridge, but one i shoot i goes sideways from the middle, and if i keep shooting the string i´ll come out of the bow. After every shot i have to realign. But i can´t send it to Korean, i´ll have to keep it.

Could you take a picture and show in it how to do it? It has 2 layers, or one thick layer in which i will unfurl until i reach the appropriate thickness?

Very cool!

Ohh thanks for the information, i had the impression that the serving thick string was sort of glued, so i can remove it right, good to know that, thanks Sissara, by the way i had some pictures of you from the Ledu Tournament in my facebook look for Gabriel Almeida, cheers bye!

Let me know how is it going, did you notice a lot of difference in drawing comparing 50# and 55#?

I own a Windfighter 55#, i have it for a while, and i shoot lots of arrows, seems in good shape, and i hope it stays that way, i shoot 3 fingers release, i just can´t shoot mongolian release, i´ve tried.Now i also own a Hwarang which  i bought in Ledu-Qinghai during a tournament, so i´ll be using them at random, the serving of the Hwarang is quite thick, so i just use wood arrows with a wider nocks (they´re self nocks), the carbons i have don´t fit in the Hwarang serving, as it´s far too thick. It´s very sad to read such things are happening to the Windfighter, but if you´ve broken quite a few in a short period of time, it´s odd indeed. Long life to mine Windfighter!

I´ve just ordered 2 Windfighter 55# each, i don´t understand the Easton measures, which one should i get? This website is quite good http://www.addictedtoarchery.com/arrows.aspx

Should i be intimidated by this comment and do not buy a Kaya Windfighter? Windfighter owners what´s you view on this one?
