This is amazing. How I wish I could go back in time when I was still able to sit a horse and shoot a bow. It’s wonderful to see the camaraderie between women.

"Angels in horse hair." That is a term I heard a long time ago for the healing and response of a horse. My boy brings that to me everyday.

Archery is not about being better than anyone else. It's about being better than you were.

The low draw weight bows these ladies use keeps this from being lethal or anything like what they used in war in the past

[@angela_merkeI]

Same goes for almost all modern archers. None of us expect to have to pierce mail armour, so most shoot lower poundage bows, unless they are hunters or history obsessed.

Viking Women. Fabulous. But don’t date them. They’ll kill you. 💔💔

[@juz3r1]

Since when did the Vikings have a recursive bow? Never!
