PMZ Archery Recurve Bow Set, 54" High-Performance Horse Bow for Hunting, Right Left Hand Traditional Turkish Bow for Youth Adults Beginners to Advanced Outdoor Practice & Hunting, 20-50 lbs

Well crafted. Eastern world archery. Very fun. Fundamental. I like their motto. High value for price. A superb deal. Two bow strings being included is appreciated. (Western bow strings have too small loops.) Shoots well on rough terrain. Easy to cary over shoulder with quiver.

This is a Magyar (Hungarian) design bow, not Turkish. I've fired several hundred arrows with it, and it is comfortable and I've gotten decently accurate with it. For the price I paid for it I am very happy with it, it's by no means top of the line, but for a novice learning thumb draw it's perfect. I shoot 700 spine arrows with it and they fly beautifully. One thing that I must say is that I saw at least 2 negative reviews for this bow from people who clearly have no clue what a recurve bow is or how it looks unstrung vs strung. A simple Google search would clear this up. No, the string notch is not "on the wrong side", the people making this bow are not imbeciles. Complaining that it doesn't come with "stringing instructions" is like complaining that a pair of shoes comes without instructions on how to tie them. PMZ made a great bow of a time-honored design at an affordable price, just wish they would market it as what it actually is rather than calling it "Turkish". I've attached a photo of my Turkish bow and this one next to each other for reference. Came with a leather thumb ring, finger tab for Mediterranean draw, leather hand protector for the bow hand, and an arm guard, all decent.

This bow is so fun! I can’t believe how cheap it is. I’ve been shooting modern compounds and traditional longbows for over 30 years and lately have been really getting into these horse style bows. I highly recommend as good bow to get to get you started. I got mine in 40lb.

I got this bow in order to develop a thumb draw technique, so i needed a lighter draw wt bow then i usually shoot. I bought the bow because of the clean lines and other folks reviews, and because of the price. I am very pleasantly surprised at how well the bow is crafted. Not fancy, but all the parts are well done and nicely finished. It shoots well, and with a couple of string silencers, is very quiet. Now i get my chance to respond to all the reviewers of these Asian bows that complain the string grooves are on the wrong side. If you are one of these folks, LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE STRUNG BOWS! If you are breaking the string groove notches, or can"t keep a string on the bow, it may be that you have the bow backwards. Stop sending snarky reviews that mislead others. Nuff said.

It says "LEFT" on the orientation for the product I bought, and since the bow is ambidextrous I assumed the handedness was in regards to the accessories provided... but all the accessories are for a RIGHT handed person. I can only assume it was meant as a lure for lefties like myself who are constantly hard up for lefty products despite representing 10% of the human population and 50% of the pro athletes in the world. I am more than displeased to have fallen for it. Since we're here, I may as well let it be known that I have contacted them and, after getting a cookie cutter reply about the bow being ambi rather than reading and comprehending the actual message I sent in regards to the accessories, they ghosted me. I bought it cheap to be used and abused in sport combat. Instead, I will ask for a partial refund. If that doesn't work, I will simply return it, report them and this product as fraudulent, and go elsewhere with my business while it rots in some bin never to be sold again. What a waste.

I got the bow at 30# to learn thumb draw off the right side. My first experience with an asiatic bow. Ifs fun, easy to shoot, and remarkably well made for 50$! The seizing at the junction of siah and Handle and the limbs had a few gaps and looked like it might become loose. I painted it with a sealer as a precaution. I love this bow!

The bow I received has the notches for the string on the inner part of the bow rather than on the outside which is pictured above. Pulling back the string will eventually cause it to come out of place. Bummer!

It's a pretty good bow I bought one that had a 50 lb draw weight to it but after a couple times of shooting a couple of arrows the top notice broke causing the bow string to hit me in the arm, I was able to have it repaired but after shooting it another 20-30 times it broke again, hitting me in the arm yet again. I feel that the notches need to have some work done to them do that they are stronger and don't break as easily.
