A Rolan Snake 50" 20# is a very welcome addition. There are a few folks around here growing out of their 48" 15#'s. The added draw length is a plus. I will spread the word they are available. Thank you.

I hope you can help me. I’m a biology teacher for kids from 12 to 18 years old. At school we also give “expert” classes where the kids can choose what class they follow. Classes vary from soccer to golf, cooking to taxidermy, lab skills to experimental physics. As a hobby archer I want to see if I can convince the school board to let me do a weekly archery class of an hour (7 consequential weeks or more) Where both recurve and (asiatic) traditional styles can be tried/learned. Do you have any advice which bows/arrows to use to allow the multiple techniques for these kids? Many thanks for all your expertise.

It's the draw weight that made them powerful. They had a short draw so therefore were not the most efficient of bows. I am Sioux and we had 25 inch arrows. Sinew backed or horn bellied was the best of what we had but again 22"-25" draw. Not the best for accuracy but we were close in fighters so snap shooting suited us

Aww man, great video as always but I had my hopes so high and got so dissapointed when realizing the 50 was refering to its length and not its drawweight :S Great for the juniors though. I have the adult one which is at what 26? 28? pounds I kinda forgot.. But its so fun and easy to shoot and I can shoot it indoors in my apartement without worrying about killing the neighbour should I miss the target XDD (I dont miss the target lol, was just a joke, otherwise I wouldnt be so irresponsible to shoot indoors) But it would be really awesome to be able to buy this bow at 50pounds drawweight.

We are using 24 of the old Rolan Snakes since 2017. Archery Tag, teaching "random" people archery etc. Virtually indestructible. But we can get them at around 38 euro here, and this is the price well worth. 98 euros is a very bad price to "bow" ratio. There are many much better bows at this price point. So a nice addition, but definitely not with this price tag.

In my opinion, a bow with matching arrows together with a ton of videos on this channel teaching every little detail of thumb release shooting, Armin's willingness to give advice and always replying to emails, and the fact, that Malta Mail and custom fees suck....it is bloody worth it!
