Welcome back to a windy edition of the day. Finally, we have from Bamboo Archery Malaysia,
from Ronald, the Jotoman, but in asymmetrical. Get a nice leaf.
And then, oh, I still did not unpack it, as you see. He put some tip protectors on, that's nice.
And we even the string tighten there, so that nothing gets loose. Very good. I like that.
I hope you understand me today. So, this is now an asymmetrical Jotoman. This can go away. So,
look at this. And it's the sunburst version. You can have, of course, different color options and
what have you. But for this, you ask just simply Ronald. So, he tightens the string everywhere,
so nothing can happen here. We have a nice raised arrow pass. Very nice. I wanted to have it
asymmetrical because I think the shorter the bow, the more sense it would make if you shoot,
if you have an asymmetrical bow. And you need to be a bit careful when you remove the stickers,
you get directly scratch the paint chop off. So, be a bit careful with the stickers.
For the rest, there's already a knocking point on it. That's nice.
So, asymmetrical. Let's see what we have.
It's cold. It's so cold. It's so cold. So, the bow is long.
I ordered it with 12 arrows, matching arrows, and I paid 365 euros or something. So,
I think the bow by itself is 200 plus including shipping, but you just ask Ronald.
So, the bow is from nock to nock, 51. And now, the asymmetrical part,
could have made it directly, but you know. So, to the center of the handle, we have here
26 and a half would be here. And down there, we have 25. So, we have roughly one and a half inches
of asymmetricality. That means that the arrow comes one and a half inches closer to the
geometrical center of the bow. This is all nice. What I wish maybe, but I will tell you later,
a different kind of handle, but I spoke already to Ronald. So, that might be a possibility later.
For the rest, we have a very narrow arrow pass. I like that one. I don't want to reproduce. It's
narrow. You see that? Looking good. The bow is very good torque resistant. And this one,
you see when you string it. I like the hoodies. They are not this traditional leather. It's very
shiny, very thin, very sleek. Looks good. The string bridges look good.
So, why am I doing this? Six degrees and wind. I need to go indoor,
but I promise you that I will go indoor. I know. Just need to finalize the deal first.
So, one thing, seriously, you need to pay attention
is where the sticker was. I was touching just with a little with my index finger here
and you get directly a mark. So, you need to be a bit careful. So, that's the bow.
Asymmetrical. Nice one. Nice one. So, this is no problem at all. Bow straight, I guess.
So, it's really nice. So, it looks premium for a bending fiberglass bow. Not too bad.
And for the price. And the draw is very nice. So, from here, a little slack and then
continuously goes nicely back. 32, we will see. These are the arrows. Jesus Christ,
it's so windy that even my target fell over now. Oh, yeah. So, these are the, as we know them,
the Taurus Carbon 500. And he made them nice with four fletchings. He left the normal nocks on it
and he put some tape around it. So, that's everything is fine. Now, let me remove my
stuff here because it gets too windy and we start shooting. Now, let's see. I shoot today
one of my fluffy protectors, as you know them, from two apples. Nocking point seems,
for my taste, almost a little low, but that's me. Let's see. So, 31 is nice.
Draw is really nice of this bow. Yep. Oh, it's so windy. The arrows don't fly straight anymore.
A little loud, but it might be the string bridges or maybe it goes away later. Dang, this is the
weather today, huh? So, let's see again. I would almost knock above it, but that's me.
But you surely thought about this, Ronald.
So, the draw is really nice. Handshake and what have you vibration is minimal
for a bending fiberglass bow. Really nice. It's just a little loud,
but the draw is nice. So, you get a little handshake with these arrows and they are already
a little heavy, I think. Handle wrap is good. Raise skin is good. The rest works.
173. 172. Precise. I don't know the weight of the arrows. 173. I like this one. Asymmetrical
makes total sense for me, but it's a little loud, probably because I don't know why.
Now, my students are already here, so I need to finish my video quickly. This bow is really nice
and the handle is okay for what it is. I wish it would be a little more squarish. You could
make it squarish in the front, so I have here a bit more for me and for my way of shooting,
but I understand. Ottoman design. Everything fine. This bow is great. I paid 360 something with
12 arrows, which makes sense. You see here, this bump here, this is the asymmetrical part,
so they compensated for this in some way, shape or form, but this bow works just nice. It's a
little loud. Might be due to the asymmetrical shooting that the string bridges will not get
hit at the same time. I don't know, so that's why you get it a little more rough, but for me,
this bow just works fine. So, Ronald, thank you very much. Nice development. I like the
asymmetrical part. For me, I said I wish the handle would be a bit more in a rectangular shape
down there. It's a little too, this is too, but it's Turkish. What can I do?
For the rest, nice made, nice finish. This bow just looks good. It's gorgeous and 200 euros
including shipping or something, you can't complain. So, you have the best of both worlds.
You have the Korean here. You have the Ottoman here. It's very short and draws 32 inches.
Shoots nice, shoots fast. Nothing to complain. Thank you for watching. Catch you in the next one.
