## Description

This book serves as a manual or reference guide for stringing and shooting one of the most difficult of all the traditional Asiatic horn composite bows to master: the gak-gung or traditional Korean horn bow. The emphasis is on stringing presented in a step-by-step manner. Common obstacles and difficulties are discussed, as well as appropriate maintenance measures and the tools needed to successfully string the bow. The book is particularly aimed at those outside of Korea who wish to own and shoot a gak-gung. It is also useful for those simply wishing to better understand horn composite bow maintenance and stringing as the principles presented are generally applicable to nearly all other Asiatic horn composite bows. Characteristics unique to the gak-gung are also covered. Includes a total of 32 figures in full color showing the tools needed, Korean horn bow types, and of course the stringing process.

Review: Rare and hard to find reference material. A must own. - This is one of the only reference books about Korean Archery and the traditional horn bow. Invaluable information. When I first purchased my Korean bow I was not sure how it all worked. A must for semi-knowledgeable bow owners.
