Sheye Archery at Winter War '22 LARP

Sheye plays phenomenal support for her team The Sons of Tara at Winter War '22. This is a Belegarth event held in Selma, Alabama at Dalwhinnie Fields.

[@piotrmyga2515]

Can someone please tell me where can I get such a bow from ? Or at least how are they called ? And Arrows ! Especially arrows !

[@cometrylarp]

Any 35lb bow will do! You can get the heads at www.gorgtech.com/shop/6-modular-arrow-heads/

[@Daricio1]

I'm just watching awestruck at 0:55 where someone throws a javelin at her and in one smooth motion she just catches it, flips it around midair, and is ready to throw it back. Amazing! We all aspire to be like this

[@GaryBeilby]

I think I might be in love. Such class - so cool in delivery!

[@Archive509]

I actually think she saved the guy in the purple by catching it! Makes her an even bigger Heroine! I'm in love as well! 😍

[@bowmosexual]

no cgi either LOL

[@snieves4]

And the dude in blue she hit kept fighting.

[@Renagade01]

i think the made up spear is heavy but none theless the girl is unfazed and just throw it to an anemt

[@ForTheLaughingGod]

Massive props to the camera person and the editor too. The archer definitely got some skills and looks a little scary being that calm and collected haha. But love to the people keeping that camera steady and capturing it all, to the editors picking those slow mo moments, it all combines to a great video. Way to go team

[@cometrylarp]

Thanks! That’s a hell of a compliment, I appreciate it.

[@benjaminhayward5921]

Her situational awareness is 5/5! She caught the javelin like a dang action hero, then dodged an arrow, then saw someone come at her, turned to shoot, realized it was a ref or something, and relaxed her draw, all within a split second! Mad control!

[@jamesg871]

No, she sucks, she's not doing anything amazing.. stop giving her so many points.

[@brndesk]

She is awesome! Constantly scanning for target and incoming. Constantly moving laterally and back always eyes up scanning. Notching arrows smoothly without looking. By far the most kills than any other. The most unsuspecting on the field but most dangerous.

Her grip style on the arrows really slows her down. She'll never get to 3 arrows in 1.5 seconds that way. But her accuracy and target choice and target acquisition speed are really good.

[@thoughtheglass]

This video really captures why i love larp. Everyopne looks to be having the time of their lives!

[@ndeplitch]

Can't head shot like that in all LARPs. Might get kicked out of some for shots like that. Props to these guys willingness to take an arrow to the face at 10 feet.

[@boffermania]

Awesome video! That javelin move was sick. Had a great time at Winter War 🤙

[@cometrylarp]

Thanks! It was a great time!!

[@rosalie374]

Great archer on the battlefield. Very skilled. Scary archer. Very intimidating. Definitely heard lots of cool things about her. Just not a nice person. I said hello to her for the first time last year. She just rolled her eyes at me as if i was beneath her.

Good situational awareness. Using the big men as both cover and concealment. Knowing what the enemy is aware of and not being in their peripheral. Even foiled being targeted three times that I saw. Good job young lady.

Not gonna lie the song playing tonjer shooting in slow mo is pretty badass and her getting the heads hot on the dude on his knees knocking his glasses off was pretty epic. She's a hell of a shot. I bet she'd be deadly with real arrows

[@xiongfa2152]

is that a Samick SKB she's using? Any vids of her shooting live arrows at targets? She seems to be very accurate and skilled given the flu-flu nature of the foam arrow. well played!

[@cometrylarp]

She is very good. Like any kind of archery, adjustments are made to account for the head weight. Samick bows are quite popular and it is likely one. To my knowledge she doesn't shoot field or broadhead arrows.

[@xiongfa2152]

@@cometrylarp thanks for the feedback. It looks exactly like my SKB, even down to the white lettering on the inside showing the draw weight (i think).

[@snieves4]

Im curious, why no shield wall and archers shooting in a line? Forgive my ignorance but this seems like a free for all. Great shooting by the lass.

[@Animetheplayer]

There's kind of a two part answer to this: 1. In order to do formations like you are talking about, people would have to spend time drilling them instead of fighting. And getting people of different skill levels and availability to use their hobby time for that is tough. 2. Shield walls are kind of tough because of the rules. Heavy weapons, including pole arms, can break shields. So shield wall on it's own is somewhat weak. In turn, pole arms are weak to missles. So ideally you have shields and poles covering each other and working together. Plus most of these people are coming from different parks and are unused to working together. That's why it looks a little chaotic. Mixed unit tactics wins out over structure. Bonus: archers firing in a line isn't great because the arrows come at a set time. The threat of an archer in a melee is that they can shoot you at any time, so you have to keep an eye at them at all times. Archers support a line by distracting the other team and splitting their attention.

[@apertureonfirephotography4795]

Talk about putting in the work :O ancestors be looking out for her. Caught a javelin and dodged an arrow like it was another day in paradise and then took out half the team lol plus the reaction aiming is on point as well as the technique. Are the bows rated at standard recurve poundage?

[@cometrylarp]

35# ar 28” draw

[@effortless4588]

Are you allowed to deflect arrows or nah

[@Yaxoi]

Does anyone know if historical archers used the same tactic of staying in the background of melees to pick off enemies at close distance? Seems risky but also pretty effective
