Just an absolute beauty! This SiCai bow shoot incredible! 100% satisfied and the customer service is top notch! couldn't be happier!
Love the bow but there are some murky blemishes on the bow. I feel like for this price there shouldn’t be any on it.
This is my sixth bow from AF Archery over the past seven years. I’ve passed three of those bows on to new owners as I progressed in my shooting ability; but I still have my blue Tatar and an older factory-decorated bamboo SiCai made with a carbon fiber layer on the belly of the limbs.
After watching a review of this bow a few months ago on Armin Himmer’s YouTube Malta Archery channel I decided to get one of my own. So glad I did. The bow, with its ebony wood limbs is a thing of beauty.
But its not just pretty. AF has outdone themselves with this improved design of the SiCai. I count eight small changes that collectively make a big improvement to what was already a fine shooting bow. Compared to my older SiCai with carbon, the limbs are a tiny bit wider, noticeably thicker, and curvature of the limbs is slightly different. The grip is 1/8” thicker (doesn’t sound like much, but it really fits my hand better). The arrow pass is 1/10” narrower. The siyah are formed with an additional piece of wood that has a string groove carved into it, replacing the older plastic glued-on string guides. The new design locates the stabilizing carbon layer as a center lamination of the limbs.
This new design feels heftier in my hand; on the scale, the new SiCai design weighs 430 grams vs the old design at 300 grams. (15.2 oz. vs 10.6). The added weight makes the bow feel better holding at full draw.
I can’t compare performance of the old to the new design because my bows have different draw weights. The older design of the decorated SiCai was surprisingly more powerful than I expected when I purchased it. I say the same for this new design as it too launches arrows with more force than I expected.
I want to compete with this bow in my area, in central USA, against western longbows and recurves drawn with fingers touching the arrow. They shoot for score on a 40 cm target at 18 meters; the high scoring “5 ring” is 8 cm wide. My thumb draw is not the best for accuracy so I’m practicing with Mediterranean draw. In my first week of practice, with instinctive aim, I’m already placing half my arrows within the 16 cm “4 ring”. This bow is a shooter.
