Sorry for the long delay, alot going on.
I prefer Hungarian and Scythian designs. I just like the way the handles are shaped snd they tend to be a little longer than Turkish, so a little more stability.
If you're going to traditional thumb draw you'll definitely want to start out low and work your way up. It doesn't matter how big and strong a guy is, to get the form down you have to start low. 30# at 28". You'd need to be able to work on form, release, and khatra before worrying about power. It's so hard to correct bad ingrained technique.
