Topic: Blurbs

Friends,

I wish to update the comments section for the Hwarang bows on the website.  Although I receive many great compliments about the bows often, I haven't been jotting them down for inclusion in the comments section.  So, if you own a Hwarang and would like to comment, please let me know.

Re: Blurbs

I have had the new Hwarang for a couple of months now so I feel it is a good time to give an "unbiased review."

This is my second Hwarang my first is about ten years old so I am very familiar with the Korean Traditional bow but for those who are not; the first thing you notice is the physical size.  This bow is short, very light in the hand and easy to get on target no matter what the terrain is like.  The bow is very smooth to draw and hold on target.  It is typical of most Asian recurves as the draw weight seems much lighter than it actually is. 

The real joy of this bow is when you launch the arrow.  The bow is not quiet but silent and it is FAST.  I do not own a chrono but I am sure the arrow is flying faster than any other bow I own.  The bow also has no handshock I do believe that the Hwarang is the ultimate hunting bow short for any style of hunting; quiet, fast and smooth draw.

It says "Bucheon Horn Bow Shop, Kim Yun-gyeong".  Bucheon is a city in-between Seoul and Incheon (my son lives there).
