Im a little confused on the spine part still, is 60-65 the same as 600-650? Is it a American/European thing like imperial and metric?

Do you think my arrows will shoot fine with my bow?

Combat shooting when archers had to be quick and accurate to stay alive. I know you shoot right or left handed. So.... have you ever tried that? Or messed with that any? He is quite the archer.. fast and somewhat accurate. I've seen old paintings of ancient time... when army's of men went against one another... History says that's the way they used to shoot. Any thoughts on that?

Not too sure what you call or consider "History". In Europe especially, the arrow was shot off the finger more than the thumb. Speed and accuracy was not so important in battle. They used massed archers and massed volleys. The purpose was to break up formations. Yes, I have tried it and did not like it, The sight picture was not what I was use to or for me, one that promotes accuracy. I'm not into historical archery, just not for me. More power to those who are.

How can you shoot ambidextrous with two different styles and draw lengths? Are you an alien? Just kidding. Great video.

Longbow is quieter. Recurve is faster (if they were the same draw weight). Not really a good comparison.
@3DArchery4 жыл бұрын
Those are not accurate statements. They might have been years ago. I have tested long bow V recurves for s on a decimeter and found them to to be the same decibel level. What they do have is a different tone. But they are equal in loudness. As for draw weight, Long bows like the one I tested as just as fast due to the reflex /delfex limb design.
