The SiCai Comparison, bows by AF Archery

Описание: The SiCai Golden Sandalwood with Carbon Core vs. 3K White Ice - a comparison of two SiCai bows by AF Archery (38 and 40 lbs/ 28”)

August 2023 I have reviewed my first SiCai Take-Down bow, which got the interest of Mario, who bought it from me last May.
So, I have ordered another SiCai bow - this time without the TD feature but with carbon core and red techno wood.
Shortly after my order, I have watched the first review of the 3K White Ice… I have asked AF Archery, if it would be possible to review the 3K myself and compare it to my new SiCai.
I am very happy, that AF liked the idea and has sent the 3K along with my SiCai bow! 🤗
This is awesome!
Thank you so much for this opportunity!
☺️🙏🙏

The two bows have arrived safely this Tuesday, but the weather didn’t allow video taking.
Finally, the conditions were good this Friday!
And here we are: You can see the comparison of the SiCai Golden Sandalwood with carbon core vs. the 3K White Ice! 😁👍

The draw of both bows feels very smooth, but the sound varies, the shooting is very nice with spine 600 or 500 arrows. My arrows were very heavy…
The handles are different, as well as the limb width and the acceleration for arrows…
Which bow wins?

As always I have marked the chapters for your time management 😁
