Instinctive Archery: The Gathering 2018 Austria

Back in May 2018 I and a couple of buddies went off on our annual instinctive archery pilgrimage to the mountains and forests of Europe, with our Archey family. This year took us back to Austria. This is our Adventure.
Please sit back and enjoy... its a long one!

[@ingosundowner7312]

I've been watching a couple of these "gatherings" now.......and I just want to go now!!!!!

[@robinhooddk]

This is what archery is all about🙂 Having fun shooting with good friends🙂 Thanks for sharing.

[@decab8292]

Beautiful countryside. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@CluthaDubh]

Looks like an amazing place to shoot, jealous now...

[@kevinroberts9580]

Talk about Scenic views, that place is absolutely gorgeous. looks like an awesome time was had by all.

[@sp-ly3sc]

Looks like a blast. Got my Grizzly String in the mail yesterday. It's still stretching out but it shoots great, looks great, and the extra wax was a great surprise. Thanks from Kansas.

[@NaturalBowWoman]

So this is what archery guys and (lady) get up to 😄 lovely to see all having such a great time and especially with beautiful surroundings🏹

[@MegaNoah13]

Jim that was maybe the best 30 minutes I've spent this week. That looked like the most fun group of fun loving and passionate people ever. I hope you get to do it for many years to come.

[@rodneyhanbaum697]

Beautiful! You are blessed to have such a beautiful place to gather!!!

[@riccoratzo]

Yeah, Austria!! Greetings from Salzburg.

[@daveware4117]

Looks like a ton of fun

[@darklord0568]

Around 16:00 epic rainbow shot! Amazing country side I'm not sure I could ever come back from that lol. Thanks for sharing the great scenery and good times!

[@fredrikantonsson5252]

I'm watching this film from hospital. I can't tell you how much I miss my bow right now! Thanks for a very nice video. They always put a smile on my face. Best of luck from Fredrik

[@archersparody7576]

That looked like an amazing trip! Thanks for sharing

[@MortenHilmer]

Incredibly awesome to have you back on the screen Jim👍👍👍 and really really nice to see you in your right element - shooting instinctive with your friends in the woodlands 🙂

[@michaelc5386]

That looks like archery heaven! I think I might make it my life goal to open a place like that...

[@nosystem1098]

Don't mind admitting I am SO envious.

[@Tirikitaon]

I too will visit Austria this year for some Archery with my wife, can not wait.....

[@andypye2620]

Great to see the gathering 2018, love watching you all having a great archery adventure. Roll on 2019 😜🏹

[@Crunch2327]

lovely video.

[@WestwoodArcher]

Magical as always and Im proud to be a part of it. Excellent video Jim.

[@mickruhdorf9916]

the columburg course is the one greg from 3D archery went to on his trip to germany-austria it looks fantastic .

[@thearcheryapprentice8511]

every year I look forward to this! great vid and perfect impression of what archery is all about! so thank you very much Jim because I know how much time goes into this, going through all the footage, selecting, editing, uploading,... thanks buddy, great job!!

[@gustlmeixner2778]

The Archery Apprentice 1000% agree! Love the gathering videos so much

[@FedericoMalagutti]

I am just amazed. I'm a traditional archer and I live in a northern Italy valley, I like my valley so much. But this one you where in there is such a beauty, plus adding the fun of archery and this perfect woods well... Woah! Hi from Italy Jim! Keep up the good work!!!

[@alanbeaulier5783]

Jim, I guess you could say it was worth the wait. Beautiful country and good friends. I noticed you shooting three under you have mentioned you use to shoot three under a while back. Thank you. Alan

[@Paul-ct1wd]

Just getting into Archery and this is a beautiful video on so many levels

[@KnightetOfCydonia]

Always my highlight watching the gathering videos 😁

[@TraditionalCanuck]

Those are dashing short-pants you’re wearing at 22:40 and all ‘round great video! I just love the longer videos, they fit well with my obsession for archery and watching archery on Le Tube!

[@sethkalisperis1644]

Great video as always Jim! It seemed like so much fun and I wish I could have been there. Shoot straight!

[@WillBlueAnimalTraining]

so many bows and veiws ... jizz

[@ExiledExia]

Went there 2 years ago and it was really awesome

[@archery-trap-lukostrelba3210]

Very nice video .. Its beautiful country and shooting here must by memorable adventure :)

[@PooMonkeyMan]

Wanted to watch this on the loo, then realised it was 30 minutes. Best watched on my bed instead. XD

[@Traveler2112]

Looked like a grand time.

[@grumpygrumpgrump136]

Nothing like manly stuff in the woods with bows and arrows.

[@SuePZZ]

Love it Jim, was fun to watch you and the buddies all together again. I burst out laughing several times while watching this in a public place #WeirdLooksFromPeeps 😁👍🏹❤

[@Tirikitaon]

Thanks!!!!!

[@lubossoltes321]

Hey, that's just over the Danube from here .... so close to Grizzly Jim :-)

[@leskersey1]

I have so got to go there

[@MarshallStrider]

I hope you liked and enjoyed my home country ;)

[@ArcheryAdventures]

Your home country is beautiful! Thank you for having me

[@MarshallStrider]

@@ArcheryAdventures I hope you will come again. I ordered a string via RobinHoodArchery for my longbow.

[@ArcheryAdventures]

You can guarantee I’ll be back!!!

[@baershaag]

It feels great to see you all having fun. Just enjoying shooting and being together. Really great thing. For me personally it is hard to come over my "Targetpanic" and the panic to be the worst douchebag during a shoot with a bunch of beautiful people that aretoo accurate for me... And it's hard to compete with guys with your equipment, when money is an issue... ;-) so, enough rambling around and crying over anything and everything... great video like ever!!! p.s. I haven't forgot our conversation about the selway bow quiver, it's the first item on my "wish to buy" list... and hopefully I can afford a new bow, that quiver and some other additional stuff in the mid to late autumm this year... Best regards, and I really appreciate the stuff you're doing (no adulation, really!) Best regards, Stefan Bär

[@PublicLandOutdoorsTv]

Good times and beautiful country. Do any of y'all hunt? Didn't see any hunting vids. Thanks for sharing.

[@oddcam]

Difficult in Europe actually. Bow hunting is forbidden in most of the countries and where it is allowed, really really harsh regulated.

[@Wingman115]

Well done brother.

[@jasoncarlaritz5558]

After following your youtube channel for a year or so, I wanted to reach out to say Thank You and ask a question/video request. First off, thanks for keeping it simple. My wife and I are about to get back into archery, together as a couple for the first time, after decades of not shooting. Your videos helped spur that on. Secondly (and along the same lines), I am looking to set up a range using my garage and driveway. In some of your videos "at the club," you have a target system I would like to replicate (layers of black something or other that don't seem very deep). Would you consider doing a video of how to make one?

[@yairosteevensz9057]

god i wish i could attend this

[@LukeSchneider]

Great movie gangsta' Soooo fkin sad I couldn't be there. Maybe next year!

[@ArcheryAdventures]

L. Schneider we missed you buddy 🧛🏻‍♂️

[@jackbuendgen2313]

Dropped a like just for the foot in the face!

[@ArcheryAdventures]

Jack Buendgen 👍

[@Char-lp4de]

Love it. Wish I was out in the woods shooting right now :)

[@backcountrywarrior2619]

Awesomeness

[@kventinnatabos1720]

The shooters are so so, but they know how to pass the time =))

[@mistergekiga2455]

I have to say, of all the things I'd like to do with my lady before I die. This is one of them. We love to travel, especially to places where we can hike and although we are fledglings in the sport (two years and hardly practice) we absolutely love traditional archery. To have a trip that combines the two... And to finally be able to shoot outside (we live in nyc where things are lame) would be absolutely solid. How'd you guys come to do this? How in the heck could I do this?

[@alanbeaulier5783]

G Jim, what happened to the 2017 Gathering. You showed a teaser but I haven't seen the rest of the 2017 Gathering. I do love watching these. Thank you. Alan

[@merimakes]

Trying to think of something to say about this video, the surroundings and the people present at the gathering but i can't put anything together in my mind, it's hard to put into words all the emotions that go through my soul right now. I could not feel anything but joy as i watched the video and saw all the love you guys and gals have for archery and for each other(and beer, let's not forget the beer)...just amazing, all of it!! Hope i'll be able to make it there next year. Is there a set date Jim? :)

[@sjankarcher]

Funny. A real Archery Adventure.

[@d3DMediaPaintStudio]

Hello Jim, I have learned a lot from your videos when I start tradition archery a year ago. I live near Albuquerque, New Mexico (USA) and would like to learn more about this event. I want to try to plan to go to this event next year. Could you provide some information and some links, please? Thank you and keep up the good work. :-)

[@kaenosantos2468]

hello , Brazil .

[@PooMonkeyMan]

Watching this 2 years later, it made me wonder: is it more cost-effective for you Jim to drive from the UK over into Austria or to fly with your luggage and your bow over to Austria?

[@ArcheryAdventures]

It probably works out a similar price to be honest once you factor in the ferry and the fuel? I guess it depends on how much time you have or if you like road trips 😅

[@markstoodley9139]

I love Austria i want to live there God's country the best

[@toutlemondesalut]

16:11 I died XD

[@ian.edmondson]

Have you gone full trad Jim and switched to 3 under? Welcome back!! I've watched your gathering videos every year since I picked up archery 4 years ago. This popped up on my feed at work and couldnt wait to get home and watch. P.S. thank you for selling me my first bow all those years ago. Oh and the grizzly string on my cottonmouth is superb!

[@duppy9012]

So happy to see another one of these videos they always remind me what it is i love about archery i wish i could go to Austria and loose a few arrows with you guys! Also Jim have you switched to shooting 3 under all the time now?

[@jacobhalverson4690]

What kind of bow is the really big guy with the tatoo on his arm shooting ?! Very nice

[@frankpace6767]

Until next year??? I hear a rumor your coming to America for ETAR in July. You gots to come to the big one...

[@ArcheryAdventures]

Frank Pace 😉

[@alanbeaulier5783]

Jim, what happened to the 2017 Gathering. You showed a teaser but I haven't seen the rest of the video. I do love watching these Gatherings so please help :-). Thank you. Alan

[@vicenterodriguez9091]

Hi Jim, í like very much this video, now shoot you barebau? Whay? Best regards

[@abrahamdemonreal3232]

Se rebosa felicidad 😻

[@michaelkearney9351]

Awesome video! What made you make the switch to three under? I have been dabbling with the idea.

[@braikka]

Are you shooting 3 under these days Jim? Great video by the way 😀

[@TheDjacdk]

Hey Jim, I see that you're shooting GT Pierce arrows, how are you liking them? I'm looking to switch to them for recurve hunting.

[@ingosundowner7312]

I'm sure you guys need a native interpreter, just let me know when? I'll even teach you how to hold a "Masskrug" (1 ltr Stein) as you're obviously to do it properly 😁😁😁😁

[@acupuncturevet9481]

Three fingers under?

[@jjpso]

Does anyone knows when and where will be the next gathering?

[@peternguyen1911]

Why didn't you have auto renew on already?
