This is not another cheap chinese pos, it is also not a saluki, that being said I can tell you it is well made and performs just as good as any, no hand shock was an added bonus and the design of the siyahs sling arrows at great speeds. 6-10-16 update-- Now that I have shot many arrows I can tell you this is the fastest-smoothest-most accurate bow I have used in my 48 years.

It looks nice and the weight is good but it lacks a couple of basic features that make archery more accessible. The most important of these is that the bow lack a rest for the arrow which can't really be added due to the construction of the bow from a single piece of wood (as oppose to laminated layers) which makes it quite fragile. So you have to rely on resting the arrow on your hand - which can lead to blisters. However, if you are OK with working on lining up the bow without the additional help of an arrow rest and a bead on the string (you can add this easily), this is a good beginners bow at a good price.

I am very happy with this now. It is quiet, consistent and fast. Like all Horsebows, it requires practice. The only negative comment was about the bows finish. It was very rough and spotty. I needed to sand it with 600 wet-dry and sprayed a couple coats of spar varnish on it. But, for the price, it is a lot of bow for the money

This is a very good quality bow. Perfect draw weight, not too light, not too heavy. Just in the middle. And so affordable, thank you Jesus! And thank you seller. Perfect for target practice and sport. Be prepared to shoot it old style because there's no arrow rest. But that's ok for me, I like learning how to shoot old fashion style without arrow rests.

I've bought several of these for my family in 50lbs to 35lbs pull and as soon as we get together to shoot; somebody new asks me to get them one. Best Christmas or Birthday present ever. Keeps the grand kids away for the Nintendo and doing something outdoors. Love them!
