How to shoot a compound bow for beginners

This video shows you the basics of how to shoot a compound bow the right way! There are a lot of videos out there that actually give you bad advice, hopefully, this will clarify some of that. There is also a picture of a cut finger as an example of what NOT to do when holding a bow.

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.

I am glad it was resolved. God bless you.

[@mikeyengland6363]

Hi mate, I’m an English Christian, veteran and ex small arms instructor. The stupid U.K. laws make it really tough to get a rifle any way, but over a .22 long it’s bloody near impossible. Really frustrating as I loved combat shooting and teaching the lads. My father in law gave me an old compound bow and my wife loved it and would shoot it whilst I practised with my air rifle to keep on top of my marksmanship principles. She loved it and I bought her an infinite edge pro for her birthday. I was so impressed I bought one for myself and never looked back! Your videos are awesome mate and really motivating- when you mentioned with pride that you are a Christian and love the Lord, it made me feel amazing! We are small in numbers and being persecuted world wide, but such is the love of God that we will prevail against all odds. Everyone of my Christian American brothers and sisters have a place at my table any time. God bless you and may your family and community be safe and loved. Always a Sapper.

[@seansoutdoors]

Thanks brother. I lived in London for a year and was surprised by the attitude of anti God and anger toward God. The flip side of that was that all the Christians worked together regardless of denomination. God bless you.

[@mikeyengland6363]

Sean's Outdoor Adventures- thank you for your reply dude. Funny isn’t it, we are thousands of miles apart and can talk at the press of a button. Still amazes me! In England, the demonisation of Christians and the constant mockery has exacerbated exponentially with the import of hundreds of thousands of ‘them’, who block vote in support of one political party- who also hate Jews and Christians alike. This pandering to the most horrific and dangerous cult in history is costing people their lives and destroying families at the hands of serial child- rape gangs, all under the protection of the police and government (couldn’t be called racist could we now?) Winterfest has replaced Christmas in Birmingham and saying merry Christmas gets people looking uncomfortable- not patriots or people from the Hindu or Sikh communities, but every day people that fear ‘them’ hurling abuse and even worse. This has to stop my brother. We can all live together in peace and I truly wish our governments didn’t play divide and rule. But there is a serious and dark undertone to all of this, not just the human tragedy, but the spiritual one too. I left the Sappers 18 months ago and moved to the countryside. It is all the same culture and everyone loves their heritage and community. After a conversation with a stranger, which was so very uncommon in a town or city, saying God bless promotes a smile. I truly love it brother, I honestly do! I thank God and praise Lord Jesus every single day for the opportunity to live in peace amongst my own people and culture- needless to say, the crime rate is absolutely minuscule- zero graffiti and children play without the ever watchful and fearful eye from their parents. I mention this, because I fought alongside fellow US sappers in Iraq and we were truly long lost brothers- our shared cultures and mentality was something we all deeply cared for. The American lads would say a prayer before an operation and I’d wish we had that in our Army. After returning from an op, I’d be drawn to the church (I’d not been christened yet) and thanked God for my safe return. Long story short brother and sorry for the long one, our culture, heritage, morality, law, integrity and so much more- stem from Christianity. We of European descent are the creators of the free world and all its treasures and marvels of technology, medicine, art, literature, infrastructure etc, I could go on. We have so much to thank our forefathers for my brother, but the ‘elite’ are trying to destroy their gift to us by saturating our homes with foreign people and cultures (as you saw in London, the vast majority HATE white people and if they knew you were Christian and proud you could be in trouble) and have the media call every white man evil and responsible for the worlds problems. I say this because unless something happens and soon, the people are going to fight back, Europe is a tinderbox and the EU is finished. Globalism has tried to destroy white Europeans and we are waking up to it. I’ve never been a racist and never will be, but come into our countries, respect your hosts and be grateful. Again, I apologise for the rant mate- I just don’t want the kind and brave people of the USA being subjected to the same fate as us. Almighty God in heaven, protect my people, my Christian brothers and sisters abroad and at home- and please stop the evil synagogue of satan genociding our race. Give us the strength to raise the flag of freedom and give us the strength also to put on the armour of God. Amen

[@seansoutdoors]

[@seansoutdoors]

Great I'm glad it helped. God bless you.

[@danc3831]

Sean....Very good solid advice for beginners. I would not teach beginners to do what I do but I hold the bow lightly in my hand , almost floating in my thumb crotch as you described but I curl my index finger around the bow grip, again barely touching it, if at all, until the index finger contacts the tip of my thumb and completes the circle. The bow itself is held in place in the thumb crotch on the draw cycle by way of the backward pressure on the draw. In my experience this has completely eliminated bow torque as the bow will "float" naturally without any pressure applied finding its own "center". ...but that is just me...not for everyone. Your teaching style transfers easily to new archer's in that there is no "fill" as in (when I was hunting for Elk with my three friends and six pack mules") in your descriptions and every word holds your attention to the point you are making. You are a "TEACHER" Sir gifted with the mannerisms and light hearted seriousness that you convey to the aspiring. A personal note outside of archery....I will be locating my permanent marker poste haste to inscribe on my grand daughters and my own fletching because in all honesty who am "i" without HIM.

Took it to an archery shop and they said it was ok without ever even pulling it back. (I've never used one). I've heard the string needs to be waxed.

Yeah I got my first compound bow and I actually came here to make sure I'm supposed to release at the very end of the draw. It felt a little odd with the let off as I came from a recurve. I'm glad I've been doing a lot of things right and I'm even more glad that I use the "finger resting"bow grip as opposed to gripping it like it's a .44 magnum. Sadly I did do something wrong. I used the wrong arrows. They ended up being waaaaaayyyy too weak for my bow and actually broke into three pieces. I'm glad nothing else got damaged, but my string derailed. Thanks for the information and keep loving Jesus brother!

For beginners, if you're right handed do you use left or right hand to hold the bow? Does a drawn arrow fire from the inner or outer side of the bow?

[@seansoutdoors]

You hold the bow with your left hand, and the arrow goes on the side closes to your body when you pull back the bow. So that would be the inner side.

So he is interested in bow hunting, competition, and backyard target shooting. I am wanting to learn as much as I can, so I can be on the same page. I also want to get him more interested in reading something he likes and draw him away from the "screen" of a cell phone, Ipad, etc. Your video is the first I have watched and was thrilled to hear that you are a Christian, I learned a lot already.

Great video love the fact it's not alot of fumbling around like many other videos I've seen.

[@seansoutdoors]

Thank you!

[@CutiePieEntertainment]

I am very thankful for you showing how hand positioning is supposed to be. I am a beginner in archery and was taught to have my hand open but after seeing that picture I am definitely changing my ways.

[@seansoutdoors]

Great. God bless you.

Nice to see that you are a Christian

[@seansoutdoors]

Amen, thanks. God bless you.

Great video.. well put together, didn't mind having the plugs for the book, they where very well placed and not pushed down my throat. Ads in the video placed the same way. Excellent. Look forward to watching your channel as I teach my 9 year old son about compound bows. Im new as well so im very excited to listen to someone who knows what they talking about. Thanks for taking time to teach.

[@seansoutdoors]

Thanks, Rocky Top Splash. Much appreciated. God bless you and Merry Christmas.

I've watched about ten videos and I subscribed to your site, I'm a good pistol and sporting clays shooter, but the inconvenience of shooting limits my range time. There is a public archery range near me and I have decided to buy a bow. Thanks, Bob

Rock on, brother! I shot target recurves many years ago and now just got my first compound (Edge 320) to hunt some whitetail for my first archery season ever this fall. All these things are coming back to me now. Thanks!

Sean's Outdoor Adventures what church do you go to I go to freedom house church of god in trenton ohio.

[@seansoutdoors]

Holy Spirit Church - here in Pennsylvania.

[@connieturner2898]

Sean' I got to ask you something my bow got a wheel on top and a cram on the bottom it's got 123 on the bottom what is them for

[@seansoutdoors]

You have what is called a single cam bow. These are good for beginners because they typically have a smooth draw cycle and also do not require as much tuning maintenance. The 1,2,3 is most likely three different draw length settings.

[@shakes-nw1fe]

Iv been shooting my bo for about a month now. These tips will hopefully sure up my shots. I’m consistently shooting a 3 to 4 inch spread.

[@jamesaustralian9829]

@@seansoutdoors Cheers mate, my question as a newcomer to archery, there are so many different types of bows on offer, recurve, compound, triangular etc. Which type of bow lasts longer and is better for newcomers to look at starting off with?

[@seansoutdoors]

It really depends on a lot of details. If you take care of a bow, just about any will last a really long time. A recurve has a better chance in general of lasting because it is simpler with less that can go wrong.

[@rickywhite7578]

Thanks for the tips. I been using a bow over 40 years. And alot of this I didn't know. I guess I was just lucky using it the way I did.

[@seansoutdoors]

Thanks for watching. God bless you

[@lovemyHK]

just bought my first compound bow. Huge help, appreciate it.

[@seansoutdoors]

Great. Enjoy it.

[@wildman8601]

Sean thanks for the great tips man I improved my shot just by holding the bow the way you showed it allowed me to really zone in on the target and group my shots Damn near paper thin apart and on mark. Not shooting w my pointer finger out made the difference these guys at the archery shops were saying I should have my hand opened on the grip of the bow and my shots were inconsistent and when I did what you said here my shots were dead on immediately thanks bbrithet keep the good videos coming and good luck this season now I'm more comfortable going into my 2nd season

[@seansoutdoors]

Wow, glad to hear it. Best of luck to you. God bless you.

[@newagemuscle2010ss]

Great video Sean. Just watched your video with my boy's who are 9 and 11. They both have been shooting for about 3 years. You provide some very good tips. I just started shooting myself a little over a week ago. I purchased a Bowtech Carbon icon. I am very happy with it so far. I have taken heed of a lot of your advice and it has seemed to help a lot. Keep the videos coming. It's also great to hear your a brother in the Lord. God bless you.

[@seansoutdoors]

Amen, thanks brother. Enjoy the shooting! God bless ya

Excellent, just brilliant advice. Thankyou so much. First compound bow ever tried, I just boght. My arm looks like a paint ball target. This will hwlp immensely.
