A sweet shooter, very smooth up the max raw of 32” torque resistant and easy to string.
A fine bow for sure. Thank you Freddie!

    In my (much) younger days I studied 'Traditional' (not the 'Sport') Tae Kwon Do... Cheon ji is the name of the first basic pattern and translates as "Heaven and Earth" ... it focusses on Basic Stances, Basic Punches and Basic Blocks ... and if you learn them well they become a foundation for you to grow from.

    @@FancyCP30 However, that is true. Japanese and Chinese martial arts influenced the formation of early Taekwondo. In particular, Shotokan karate has a significant impact on pumsae (Kata). Decades ago, the discussion of the issue itself was taboo due to anti-Japanese sentiment caused by Japan's colonization, but it is a part that all Taekwondo elders acknowledge. The important fact is that any culture cannot be completely influenced by external influences, and it is natural to develop through mutual exchange. In addition, taekwondo has already evolved into a completely different martial art from karate in Japan, and the world recognizes it. I am Korean and started in 1978 at Mudeokgwan, and practiced Taekwondo black belt 2nd class, Ju-do black belt 1st class, and Kwon-beop(bare-handed martial arts) and weapons during the Joseon Dynasty for many years.

    Wow, this is the Korean bow I was thinking of getting, but no one did a review of it. And now my favourite reviewer has it! How does it compare to the others? I know the KTB is a bit cheaper but if your happy to spend $600 then which would you say has the better performance? KTB, KTB 2, YMG or Cheonji?

    I prefer gloves to rings and tabs because I have more control and I want to feel the string to some extent. But since I shoot 55# to 70# I had to pimp this glove a bit, I cut up a leather strip used for arrow shelves and stuck on like 5 layers to my glove, now I get better protection for the heavier draws. 😄

Think it's cold there come here to Maine it's just 10° F this morning haven't been able to shoot in weeks, will have to struggle thru till spring and hope I can still hit the target in April! Lol!

    @@hwalssogi8063 It's hard to explain exactly because I'm not good at English. Korean bow has official approval system. This system prices products equally. (The reason why Korean bow is cheap compared to performance) The price is set even before make the bow. Carbon-laminated bows are under 200USD. ( Korea's domestic standards) In my opinion, It is difficult to completely take care of the exterior at a low price. And diversity decreases because development costs are difficult to cover. But from the perspective of the beginer, there is also an advantage of being able to buy a bow with guaranteed performance at a low price. In the video review, used a horn, and I don't know whether it's official approval or not, so the price is not as cheap as I said. By the way, nice to see your nickname!
