I grew up with John Demmer. He was very good at anything he did. He was a phenomenal baseball player, among other things. I'm not surprised to see that he is in the top group of archers in the world.

Had the bow set up at a pro shop. It performed just fine kzbin.infoUgkxQEKUoxLWwayEDZR0NKB-5limn4MBU-2L . And I would say this is a good starting now that I could pass down to my son when he is older.But the package was missing the release and a nock was missing from one arrow.Dealing with customer support was terrible. They suggested I buy a new release rather than correct their own quality control issue because it’s to expensive for the. to ship it out from China.Update: manufacturer got back to me and resolved the issue. I retract the above statement.

...and that's one of the reasons why I only buy my equipment from a local shop, even if it may be a bit more expensive to do so. I bought my first (recurve)bow there and the owner himself measured me out, drawlength and -weight, picked the spine of the arrows according to the bow (and the drawlength), set the nock and so on and so forth. Much later I bought stronger arms, the same happened, even later another bow followed. again, the same. It's also very covenient that I can simply whatsapp him, like "hey, I need a new string and a couple of arrows" or whathaveyou, and he sends it out right away or I pick it up, since all my data is in his system. Doesn't hurt that he's a nice guy and a couple of month ago has moved his shop to a different location, even bigger than before and now even with an indoor range for testing.

I use a combination of stringwalking and gap shooting. At 10 yards for instance I string walk down only 3 marks on the tab and then shoot 6 inches low. This prevents me from having to go way down the string and reduces the difficulty in estimating the gap. At 20 yards and further I do only stringwalking, no gap.

Do you recommend attaching additional 2-3 nocks to your string instead of actually crawling down the string? Someone told me that in dim light, when you might not be able to see your tap measurements, it might save you from missing a shot.

John Demmer has this very amiable face, but then when he draws the bow and turns his head he has the most intense eyes when he's focusing on the target. I noticed it in the Lancaster catalog and then here.
@eqlzr25 жыл бұрын
IMHO, this video suffers badly from not showing the exact view down the arrow with the tip at some point on the target. Are you always looking directly down on top of the arrow to the arrow tip, or looking under the arrow at some distances or exactly what? Thx.
@nepheshr2905 жыл бұрын
I know the history of string walking and how it developed but there comes a point where it all defeats the purpose of barebow and we might as well just use sights, but if they like it then cool.
@Buran015 жыл бұрын
They should be a competitive division shooting with recurves but with instinctive aiming. Like traditional (with mediterranean or thumb grip) but with ILF risers and modern components. I like traditional horsebows but not using wood arrows, and I like ILF risers but not using sights or stabilizers. I like the sights in compounds but not the stabilizers. Essentially I depise any way of archery which makes the bow useless for hunting situations.

@Hooples7 ай бұрын
Depends on your anchor point, draw length and a few other factors. It’s a pretty personal thing on where to adjust to get your on-point where you want it.

you can, as long as the mark are all the same and all at an even distance between each other, and you can't have numbers or other signs that marks the shooting distances.

A couple of these statements aren't exactly 100% accurate. I just want to clarify so things aren't as confusing. In World archery you are allowed to mark your tabs. They have to be same size shape and color. There is no mentioning of spacing nor is it implied.

Kluxii I enjoy barebow shooting, but I can inderstand it can be disencouraging for a beginner to have a low accuracy in the beginning. I always reveal to beginners that stringwalking exists, how it compares with other methods, and encourage them to try it. Most of them benefit from the technique feom the start.

@On2Evolution6 жыл бұрын
It's a bit late, but in case someone else might be interested the following describes some of his setups. (Sidenote he used less than 50 lbs in these) Lancaster Classic was my purple gillo 27", 12" stab, recurve RZ arrows, 37# otf ultimate pro limbs, and stringwalking Vegas same riser, long rod vbars, RZ arrows, 39# otf Vera 2 limbs, and stringwalking USA indoor nationals same riser, 2# weight, one inch shorter rz arrows, 39# otf Vera 2, stringwalking. NFAA indoors same riser, 39# otf Vera 2, full length xbusters 300gr points, and no stringwalking (not allowed in chosen class) I returned for every shoot. NFAA this year is my worst tune cause I don't have any options really to get point on with my lower anchor. Arrows are probably flying at about 120 fps. Lol As for outdoors, i might just stick with last year's final setup. Same 27" gillo riser, 39# otf Vera 2, stringwalking, 650 nano extremes with 110gr points. If I do change anything, it might be a slightly higher poundage maybe 41 or 43#. source tradtalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=88473

Young ladies in the video need to use an under the chin anchor to get to a 50 meter point on. If they used my anchor in the video I'm guessing they would be closer to 35 meters point on. Picking your anchor point often is out of necessity to what you want for point on distance.
