  2. AnGobh says:

    Wow, that’s a really thick arrow, is it bamboo? How much does it weigh?

    Thank you for posting the korean overdraw technique. Where can i get such an overdraw? Is it made out of bamboo,too?

  4. rsengineering says:

    It seems when it comes to bows you don`t know much? And this video shows the sequences extra slow. This is an overdraw which is used on modern compound bows,too. Just a different technology. Seems that the Koreans invented this a little earlier :-) .Better stay with sniper rifles…

    the arrow he’s using is called pyunjun
    maximum aiming range is about 240meters and maximum distance is about 700meters it could penetrate steel armor at 600meters
    it is a sniper arrow. it is heavy and shorter than the regular arrows. Greatest benefit besides accuracy is enemies could not use it since is was too short to be used without the bamboo guide

    can you put the word “Pyunjun” in the title and in the Tags as well please? So that people who speak English can find this video

    This is extremely risky to the archer, someone actually shot out his own eye with this stuff.

    That is the sickest draw I’ve ever seen – a thumb draw on a canted bow!

    what does that tube do?

  13. 1221Kyra says:

    1.Increasing range of arrow,
    2.Can use short arrow, harder to see and defend it
    3.opponent can’t recognize when fired
    (think the tube as arrow.)
    compare it to sniper rifle of nowadays

  14. cypresspeter2008 says:

    thanks for the information.

    so the tube makes the arrow go further and less noisy?

    that is interesting, i have never seen that before. do only korean archers use this?

  15. stabdaback says:

    Turkish have something similar I heard, called a majra. I’ve never seen one though.. it was thought to have been invented against the Korean mongol wars. The Korean fort was running out of arrows, so they cut the long 1meter arrow into thirds and shot it through a tube. This gave the Koreans armor piercing shots, more arrows and the arrows used couldn’t be shot back by the enemy. However, this method is dangerous to learn and takes away the bow’s life span.

    The Chinese use to call Koreans “Eastern Bow Men” =)
    Koreans have awesome archery and some amazing kicks =)
    And Kimchi isn’t that bad either xD
