@Yuck Fuutoob Yes, get it months ago. Been out shooting about 4 times it's awesome! Thanks!

Congratulations Matt!

[@adampalamara]

You can't use anything with cams or pulleys in barebow, right?

[@medialution]

Anybody knows the setups these guys are shooting? Rest, Button and pounds on the fingers?

[@mrnice752]

Looks like both are using Zniper drop-away rests and Beiter buttons, unsure of the lbs.

[@MattYacca]

My bow is a 25” Hoyt Xceed , M Velos limbs 42#. Zniper rest, Beiter plunger.

50 meters that is long shot

paul tuerena barebow?

[@paultuerena]

@@hoisansio1099 Standard recurve, 30lb draw, had a sight but no pressure button, stabilisers etc. I’ve shot longbow and unsighted at 50-70m though. Just wanted to say I don’t think 50m is far

Why do they shoot at 50 rather than 70 meters? Or is it yards?

did jake kaminski participate?

no

[@jamesmatlock4078]

Sorry for my confusion, what’s the difference between barebow and an Olympic bow? It looks like these archers have a plunger and rest along with something where the stabilizer goes. I have a PSE coyote, that I can’t seem to get consistent with; it only has a rest and a small stabilizer on it. I was at at an archery range shooting next to a guy with a wooden recurve (maybe a bear) who is shooting off the shelf and he was telling me that I couldn’t shoot barebow because of the arrow rest.

[@usaarchery]

the biggest, most obvious differences between Olympic recurve and barebow is the absence of a sight and stabilizers on a barebow. A rest is allowed. You can read more on the rules here: worldarchery.sport/rulebook/article/793

[@jamesmatlock4078]

Ok, thank you for answering me so quickly. Sorry for the long question, but what kind of rest would you think is best for the PSE Coyote. I bought a NAP Quiktune Arrow Rest when I bought the bow, but I can’t get consistent. I had the local hunting store adjust it recently because it was tearing the feathers off, and now the arrow pops off the rest just as I release, about 1/5 shots, and makes me shoot wide right. (I was hitting the target 5 feet to the right of mine.) I recently bought a ZSHJG rest and plunger, but realized it won’t fit my bow since there is only one drilled hole to screw in the rest.

Where is the self bow championship. Since bare bow entails computer generated alloy limbs risers and carbon arrows. Would be way more legit if every competitor had to hand make bows and arrows

[@johnaplank5406]

Matt is the true Champion here, he used no stabilizers. John had front and rear stabilization which takes out a lot of vibrations. Here in Canada a cushion plunger is allowed, but the bow has to be as bare as from the factory. Having competed for many years in barebow in major competitions, what makes it some what easier is to find a heavy bow to begin with.

[@jagerwayz5721]

That big black thing on the front of Matt’s bow is a removable weight actually- just like demmer’s. All of their bows have to fit through a small ring- can’t remember the diameter- therefore no one is allowed to run actual stabilizers like you see on the olympic recurves- however pretty much everybody runs some kind of weight under the grip.

[@woodbug5877]

@@jagerwayz5721 Adding any kind of weight to the bow stabilizes the bow, so having a long or short stubby stabilizer adds to stabilizing the bow, therefore taking out the vibrations of the bow... Bowmakers using lighter and lighter materials, so it can handle more stabilization weight for the shooter.

[@2SLipo]

@@woodbug5877 A long stabilizer rod does more...it minimizes torquing the bow upon release, helping to get the shots more consistent.

[@mustafababdullah2485]

Olympics is 🐂 💩 in archery no archer ever has all those balancers ever. It is the equivalent of a marksman using a bench vice to shoot. Bare now my but the one man has a small stabilizer!!! All make rules as they go
