The Comanches brought so many advanced elements, for that time anyway, to the battlefield. They could travel in a minimalist way and fast. Once on the battlefield they could shoot bow and arrows multiple times in succession with great accuracy. They could hide from enemy fire behind their transportation and often had back ups. They could kill on the move which was a tremendous advantage against stationary soldiers because they were accurate while at the same time elusive. The Comanches could close at astonishing speed, strike fast with violence of action, and then retreat quickly if they needed to. It wasn't until the Texas Rangers learned how to travel stealthily and use tactics like the Comanche did the tide turn. The Rangers couldn't shoot arrows like the Comanche and single shot firearms were too slow so the addition of multiple shot pistols turned the tide of the war. With superior technology it was only a matter of time before the war was over.

The Commanche's relatives the Shoshoni where also great horseman in the plains and they also dominated other plains tribes by horse. Anyone who came into the plains the Shoshoni challenged them, there strength was also the horse, many tribes feared the Shoshoni's. It was said that the Shoshoni's where the largest and most powerful tribe on the western side of the rocky mountains and the Sioux were the largest and most powerful tribe on the eastern side of the rocky mountains. I read somewhere that the Commanche's split from the Shoshoni tribe back in the late 1600s. Like the Commanche's the Shoshoni's also had large herds of horses, other tribes like the Blackfeet would try to steal them. The Commanche and Shoshoni speak with the same language (dialect). The Commanche and Shoshoni tribes from Wyoming, Idaho, Nevada and Utah meet once a year in Commanche territory or one of the four Shoshoni reservations in the Pacific Northwest to share stories and have a feast and celebrate, they call it the "Shoshoni Reunion."

Thats 'Instinctive Archery' as used by the Old English Longbow archers, like Japanese Horse Archery. No sights. Takes ten times longer to learn but super accurate. Joe, read 'Hunting with the bow and arrow' by Saxton Pope. Amazing, hunting grizzly's with long bows! He befriend Ishi, the 'last wild Indian' who taught him a lot. I played Australian Rules Football for years and always noticed that kicking a goal or to a team mate from standing - very difficult. Kicking at full sprint with people trying to tackle you- incredible accuracy often, almost supernatural. It's the subconscious mind. It's also something in surfing where the wave is 'alive' and you can't think, you just have to let go and let your instinctive mind take over. My cousins were cowboy trick riders and could gallop ponies and hang all over them like the Commanches! Great episode guys

The Plains Indian’s bows were fairly short and moderate in Power but for the short ranges they shot off a horse it was perfectly adapted.. Some of the Eastern tribes particularly the Cherokee used a long bow. Generally they were much longer, more forgiving and accurate. They were considerably more powerful with a effective range probably twice that of the Comanche bow yet also well adapted for the shooting they did. They have a shooting game that dates way back of shooting a vertical bunch of corn stalks representing a enemy warrior tied together and shot at out to 100 yards. Each bow and tribe made the bows their environment required. Osage Orange or Hedge or Horse Apple was equally prized by most tribes though. You ought to visit Tallequah Oklahoma the capital of the Cherokee Nation. There are active Boyers there. You owe it to yourself to try a traditional Plains flat bow or Eastern Longbow. The British Longbow or Warbow also is a beautiful thing. Some of their Warbows pulled over 150lb and penetrated armor yet were used by men whose size today would be average or probably less. Remember Jonathan the best friend of King David the Slayer of Goliath was known as a Master of the Bow.

There were a bunch of tribes who didn't use the horse mainly like the Apaches, Navajo and Santee Sioux who still used short fast bows. Our short bows are faster than a longbow with the same weight arrow but at a shorter draw length. In other words our bows are more efficient and English longbows only went over 80 ibs because of plate armor. During the viking period they used bows of 75 ibs

If any of you want to see a more actual historical archer who utilises his bow more or less like it was probably used in warfare (aka not a trickshooter like Andersen), check out Lajos Kassai, he does magyar/avar/mongol style of archery from horseback, insane speed and accuracy with a composite, using historical techniques, training and equipment.

The Mongol's widely witnessed and documented legendary archery skills date over a thousand years back. The Romans regularly documented similar unbelievable horseback archery, short- and long-range accuracy being displayed by the Parthians during their numerous grand-scale battles (-53bc through 216 ad). The famous "Parthian shot" (the horse archer accurately shoots over the rump of his horse during a feigned tactical retreat designed to lure enemy cavalry in pursuit) was a devastating tactic developed to perfection by the Mongols of the XIII th century.

In agree with the quiver mythm. they were primarly used for domestic and private hunting purposes. Take for instant the English Longbowmen at the battle of Agincourt, they don't just stand still in an even stationary line. They were building trenches, forts, palisades and wooden stakes; and they don't even carry arrows on their backs. All they ever did was station the baggage wagon behind the archery line, where the fight might be, tasked the drivers or any of the staff members to grab and refilled the Long with stacks of arrorws for each hand. And repeate this run around over and over. That way if they need to run (well can't out run mounted knights obviously) they run WITH the baggage wagon and set up a new position. And mind you, they DON'T shoot arrows over the heads (arcking shots) of allies, unless they had a hill archery lines shoot straight. Meaning they NEED clear line of sight.

Eugen Herrigel's talks about this, how Japanese archery was different from Western methods. It was to develop an instinctual approach, not an objectively aimed approach. Crucially, they were trying to recover the quality of feeling a baby has in their hands. If you think about it, when you learn archery intensively as a child before the age of 8 you're more likely to have an instinctual grasp that doesn't rely on all the thinking brain stuff that becomes more dominant, particularly in our culture, later. Before 8 that little sliver of orbital-frontal brain on the left side that's so objectively oriented isn't yet competent. After 8 it becomes dominant, and that's the brain we train so heavily in western culture. But if you want to become a concert musician, it's best if you got years of the right instruction that point.

The Mongols conquered far more people and land with bows and arrows than the Comanche. But to be fair to the Comanche, the Mongols had much less competition. Comanche’s lived among and battled against tribes like the Apache, Navajo, Kiowa, etc. for thousands of years (along with the American Army for hundreds of years). All of whom were crazy skilled warriors. In a war between Mongols vs. Comanche, I still give Mongols the victory because their skill and ruthlessness as soldiers is simply unparalleled. But I do think the Comanche had harder competition to fight against.

I am a descendant of Texas settlers in north central Texas and the brutality of the Comanche is beyond description. The killing of whites, Spanish and blacks was usually with torture and little to no regard to taking captives. Captives were slaves and Comanche women usually were the cruelest to the slaves. The brutality of Comanches even caused original Texas Indians to plead with Mexico, the Texas Republic and the US governments for protection. Keep in mind the Comanches moved into original Texas Indians' territorial lands in the early 1810 or earlier from their lands further north. Even other Indian tribes feared and hated the Comanche.

The shooting while moving makes sense. When I try to really focus, control my breath, squeeze the trigger so lightly that it's supposed to be a surprise when it goes off, I miss. Standing straight up, arms swaying, but anticipating the sway and jerking the trigger a second before I think I should, I hit my target. I'm by no means a professional or even trained shooter, but I get it.
