So here's my bow and thumb rings I've made.

First two photos are my korean YMG bow its 50 inch 40lbs at 29" and 50lbs at my draw length 31".

I've customized the grip as more close to korean traditional way that using silk like synthetic thread with hemp wraps. I really love how it looks and will going to do the same for my new YMG 48inch 75lbs version which I'm waiting for the shipping.

And 3,4,5 photos are my thumb ring which is korean style "Soot kkak-ji" which means Male thumb ring as korean define the other asian style thumb cover ring as female thumb ring.

And some faux leather thumb tab for practicing bare thumb release as well.

I've made thumb ring with an some antler piece bought it from local pet store which is fully dried naturally without heating that makes the antler as perfect to craft with. Although the smell that makes is horrible that intriguing all the flies from the neighborhood 😳.

But yeah I am pretty happy with these, feel free to ask anything.

Cheers. 👍

How I'm training over 100 pounds with thumb draw

I bought PTP's resistance tube training kit for base training which said ultimate grade maximum 50lbs.

But quickly regretted cuz its too elastic for the bow draw training that It would've been better if I just bought resistance bands instead.

Just keep tried to figure out how to make it worth the money then it ended up being quite practical to training by looping a one and half way that makes close to the actual drawing a bow with decent amount of weight actually over 100lbs.

Maybe not the best way to practice archery but at least I am happy with that I didn't waste my money 🤣
