[@KyaKramer]

Starting my first (non-summer camp) archery lessons today. I've always loved archery, but never really thought about doing it as an adult. They opened up a place 30 minutes from me, and decided to take the opportunity. The only awkward thing is that I'll probably be in a class full of 10 year olds. Wish me luck on that end.

[@anielad8721]

Haha, I thought the same. So im the „10 year old”, but when i first entered the class, everyone was an adult. I was the only kid. Funny.

[@shayemoore]

Lol. That's how I felt when I took my first guitar lessons. I was in a class full of kids and shit. I ended up getting a private tutor😆 Saved me the embarrassment and plus I liked the one-on-one lessons much better.

[@Ahmed-wd1xi]

How did it go?

[@numericspirit]

Oh how I wish I could be a professional Archer... Here in Morocco, it turns out to be so expensive to train on archery, and there are no clubs for this sport. 😢

[@suchetart2001]

Tomorrow will be that day for me

[@WhiteTurtleDiver]

It’s like the beginning of the video is missing just jumps right into “stance”. Normally I complain videos take too long to get to it but blammo here’s the opposite and I like it.

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

Haha thanks :) I'm trying to get to the point a bit quicker :)

[@pacettid]

Thanks so much for this video. I’m 67 years old and I’m going to try archery lessons, for the first time in the next few weeks. Before I do that I’m going to practice with your tips. Well done.

[@riobluetube]

Same here

[@jeanlefranc3817]

Just started three weeks ago at the age of 58. You’ll do great

[@ItadakiTontaro]

I just took my first shots on the bow today and will practice these steps with discipline. Thank you for the upload!

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

No problem! Have fun and try and focus on one thing at a time :)

[@tiffanysullivan3655]

It was such a relief to just immediately get into it instead of listening to 1-2 minutes of rambling like so many videos on the internet tend to do 😌THAT'S how you get views and viewer retention, thank you. I'm glad I clicked on your video first. I'm taking an archery 101 class with through my local Parks & Recreation today. I know absolutely nothing about using a bow and arrow so I want to go into it with at least *some* understanding.

[@sumaiya.atique]

As a young 12 year old girl who is self tough in archery thank you so much for this upload and being so good at explains and showing everyone how we should be doing everything smart and safe.

[@matthewdavidlandberg91588]

I'm glad to see more young women in the archery sport!

I'm a 12 year old teaching myself too, I am also absolutely terrible at it, but anyway...

I just had my first archery lesson at 50 years old.. loved it.. can't wait till next week!

[@axelfuentes1376]

As a kid i used to make bows with rubber bands and stick arrow. It was a lot of fun

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

Me too! That's how I got started!

[@iwakuralain1459]

lol same

[@YourLocalTrash_Panda]

I made a bow about 3 years ago (11 yrs) out of a long stick and vines it actually shot arrows (Small sticks)

[@Disneyparkblog]

Facts 🥲

[@aslkjdasdf961]

Very good, straight to the point and not a 10 minute introduction of what a bow is

[@solveigneslandlarssen4382]

It's very nice that you're saying for right handed/ left handed. I'm left-handed and it feels so nice being included.😊

[@GragonOhare]

My husband bought me my first bow for my birthday and I'm so excited to learn! Thanks for these tips!

[@MrCrackedJack]

I just started archery and decided to start with a 50LB Recurve and Iove it. I love this tutorial. I learned a lot. The last guy is a trooper, holding that bow that long perfectly still. One strong man for sure.

[@kelvinsparks4651]

Wow a 50lb to learn with is quite a hefty weight, I would suggest getting a set of lighter limbs to learn your technique and strengthen the muscles you'll be using. I did exactly the same thing when I started years ago , I bought a59lb compound and thought I'd be an instant Robin Hood lol , needless to say my dreams very short lived 😂

[@salamsalamo9944]

Pay attention the more you train long the more you re exposed to injuries.and it 's very hard to obtain a good technique with this strength. There are Champions who use less than 50 lb without affecting them result.

[@juliessignlanguageclass7739]

i am a new sign language interpreter and have been assigned to interpret for a deaf student in his archery practice. As I know noting about archery, it is great to have your videos to give me a ton of vocabulary and information about the sport. I feel better prepared when I go into practice. Thanks!

[@hanabimizuki6024]

Woahh

[@evoxis1058]

Just got a bow for archery season, I'm a decent shot at 20 yards (within 6 inches of aim point) but still have alot to learn. Thanks mate, I'll use everything you said

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

Awesome!! Have fun!

[@Sachiethane]

I'm not exactly new to archery but i know there is plenty to learn, for instance i just shot my bow a few times and my arrows were decent but not on point, after video i shot a few more times with the tips and noticed my arrow flew straighter then before, thank you for this

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

No problem at all! Thanks for watching and I'm glad you're enjoying starting your archery!

[@MrCusco19]

Great video. Even after a year and a half of archery practicing, I did learn something and will control my wrist position on the draw hand as I struggle with my anchor position. Thanks a lot.

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

No problem! Glad you liked it :)

[@andyg611]

I've been shooting for 2yrs and have recently taken up bikram yoga. 3 x 90min classes a week and 2 x HIT Pilates a week and its improved my archery ten fold.

[@gneissnicebaby]

I just started learning archery and these fundementals remind me so much of the fundementals of playing the violin and fencing. I played the violin for over a decade and a lot of success with playing the violin comes from good posture and good consistent technique. The same goes with fencing. The way you're "sitting" in en garde or "resting" the rapier in your hand can mean a world of difference in your ability to strike your target and move out of the way fast. I love these sort of activities and I can't wait to get to the range again 😊

[@perl7789]

Was doing some research for a fan fic, and this really helped. You have my gratitude. 🙏😁

[@PaulXerxen]

Amazing tips. I've just started a beginners course, and this was very informative and helpful.

[@ash.lou613]

27 and going back to archery after camps and starting some in my very early 20s. watching so I can gain some insight and knowledge before I go. Im also binging archery olympics :)

[@guesswhat3877]

I want to learn archery since my childhood. But I really don't have any money right now to afford this hobby also the place where I live has no such training institute 😟😢. So I repeatedly watch archery training videos. That's all what I can do for myself.

[@JagdevSingh-dt5mi]

Agh… same here dude

[@BeastOuncelifeian]

I was in the same boat. Found a decent bow on a resale app that looked great,like I couldn't afford it new. It cost me $50, and came with 6 arrows. They were too short,I'd draw them right off the arrow rest. So, i got longer ones of the same type. THAT broke my bank! $12 each, or 12 for $94.! After monitoring food,gas,and everything else, I got 12 of them. You're right, this hobby is expensive. I still need sights,the little round parts you put on your string on either side of the nock,and maybe the rollers for either side of those. I'm shooting without for now. Last night, my neighbor finally hung the target we split cost on(i did yard work for my hslf--> no out of pocket cost!). He also has a "bare" recurve. First shot,from 35-50yards(,I'm putting a measuring tape on the distance today) and I hit the ring around the bullseye. 15 shots,and 3 arrow hunts later,and im only hitting the backstop. Last shot,light fading, degenerative disc disease playing hell with my nerves...I set my arrow,and my back screams and the precussion burns down to my toes. I sit down,bow in hard,arrow ready to be set again....and I'm mad at my body. Really mad. Took a drink of coffe while considering weather or not to take another shot, or pack it in for the night. Light fading fast, I decide to pack it in. I got arrows in the backstop, so decided to let this last one fly recklessly -- while sitting. I draw,air,let go....fast. Bullseye 🎯. Now, After this video, I hope to do MUCH better. I can see what i was doing wrong with my stance,grip,and release. Hopefully i can at least keep them on the backstop! Thank You for the upload! My other point is: just like any hobby, there are ways around SOME costs, but you WILL find a way if you want to badly enough. Good luck ,everyone

[@ProtectFreedomOfSpeech]

Tbh for a hobby, archer entry level is super cheap. You get get completely set up for 200 bucks including a bow, pack of 12 arrows, a target dummy, arm protector etc. Compared to most other hobbies, thats quite cheap. If you wanna go even cheaper, you can make your own bows from wood. That saves you a hundred bucks easily.

[@user-es2kr8jj9h]

Thank you this really helped! Me and my class in gym class are doing archery for the first time. This video definitely helped me, and now I feel much more confident in my self :)

Great video man! I am just getting started off in archery and your tips have helped me smarten up what I am learning. It might sound like a stupid question but, is it possible to have a unique finger technique that is comfortable with the drawing hand? I am asking because it feels more effective for me in this case to stabilise the arrow.

I like the video & explanation, but I find somethings working differently for me. E.g. if i shoot without visor, would ankering my hand in my neck still work? And I was always told that - even though I am right handed - it's the dominant eye which determines the bow hand . So I now have a bow which i shoot with my left hand

Is there a difference between the stance for targets, vs for hunting?

[@OnlineArcheryAcademy]

I'm not a hunting expert but I would think so :) I expect with hunting it's a case of fitting your feet where you can so the stance will be more narrow
