Strung it up real easy, and shot 100 arrows on first day. Fast bow, no issues. Simple, handcrafted construction. Feels great, nice and light, and will become a mainstay for my target practice.

PRODUCTS: Custom 70# and a 50# versions of the Longbowmaker Hungarian longbow from Archery MaxHISTORY: Just getting started in archery, had some fun with an old compound and a modern recurve and wanted to try more traditional style archery. The 70# versions shoots wonderfully but is a bit much to handle. I liked it so much I purchased the 50# to build form, accuracy and repeatabilitySETUP: Setup is important. Im shooting 3 under with a nock ring. You have to set that ring high, perhaps 12mm higher than level to shoot off your hand properly. Start high and work your way down to find the ideal point. Arrows are critical also. I have some 500 spine carbons that do not work with either bow. 300 spine with 150gr heads are lazer beams with proper form. Dont forget to wax your string at all the contact points as the wood syahs will eat up the serving quickly otherwise. Twist that string too though its hard to eliminate all the wrist slapSHOOTING: Draw feels smooth and linear, doesnt stack like my recurve. With proper form this bow can be amazingly accurate. Took a couple hundred shots to figure out my form and anchor and now I dont want to shoot anything elseUSAGE: 300 shots thru the 70#, 1500 shots thru the 50# shooting about 100 arrows a day. Shooting 5, 10 and 20 m.DURABILITY: 70# still looks like new. String in perfect condition. 50# starting to get wear spots on the arrow rest and the serving on one of the end loops has frayed and worn where it contacts the syahs, but is an easy fix. I dont know how long the string is supposed to last but I have no complaints with 1500 shots thru it. Leather and string wraps still in place and look great. Both bows are durable will last a long timeSUMMARY: THese bows look cool, shoot great and are an inexpensive gateway into traditional archery. I highly recommend them for beginners or experienced archers looking for something different. Be prepared to put time in on your form and this bow will deliver excellent results

I have several bows of different types, but for some reason this one is the most fun to shoot. I think it's just the challenge of having no aiming assistance. You just have to find your way. 60 yards with a compound is easy. 20 yards with a no-frills traditional is HARD.The bow itself looks nice and the grip feels good. Very light weight bow. It has made it through one season, roughly 1000 shots, and the bow itself is in great shape. The string is fraying quite a bit on the loops and will need replacing soon.
