If you have a routine shot sequence, and a concrete aiming system, you can shoot a recurve or a longbow very accurately. And so, this video is for you. You guys that are out there that have always carried a compound bow into the woods or a crossbow, but always wanted to try a recurve or a longbow. This video is for you, those guys that have been struggling for three to five years shooting a recurve or a longbow instinctively, but are frustrated with your accuracy. This video is also for you guys that have or own a recurve or a longbow, and every spring you tell yourself "This is the year I'm going to carry a recurve or a longbow into the woods." But come August, you're not satisfied with your accuracy, and you fall back onto the compound, and the cycle continues. Well, this IS the year that you're going to carry your recurve into the woods. There are a hundred different ways to shoot a bow, and this is just one of them- a full aiming system that will help you shoot your recurve and longbow accurately. If you are completely satisfied with your shooting abilities with a recurve or a longbow, then this video is not for you. But if you want to be able to accurately shoot your bow within a short period of time, then this video is for you, and enjoy.

I am 65 years old and have been shooting, off and on, casually since I was a young teenager. I learned more about archery by watching this 2 hour video than the sum of all I have learned over the last 50+ years. Thank you for putting this video out there for folks like me who enjoy shooting a bow but haven't done the in-depth research to enjoy it that much more.
Same story but I am 50 within two days of shooting the fixed crawl I am now shooting a 1 inch group at 20 yards. Hands-down the best video I have ever watched. Oh and for the first time in 35 years I will be putting my compound in the closet next deer season.
А мне в мае 67 год пошел я обязательно выберу времяи пересмотрю этот фильм
glad to hear sir, blessings
Well said sir
Same age as above. But only been shooting a couple of years. This has so straitened out the kinks in my understanding. Thank you Sir. Very impressive.
This man literally made his own archery guide from all the fragments of information he gathered online and personal experience. It shows even in the world of internet we need excellent teachers.
@multiculturehead yep and having to search the internet for the info being from one old no longer updated site of older persons info to the new people using recurve/flat Bows due to how they are on the beginners side for a good hunting bow, cheaper then the lowest good compound bow, a Genesis bow or specific Barnet bow-fishing bow without the bow-fishing parts on it.
He doesn’t know shit🤦♂️
@@johnphillipsjr7238 Interesting. He's a competitive archer, a successful hunter, and now works with Tom Clum - a level IV Olympic archery coach. This video alone has 1.4mil views, and is mentioned repeatedly in archery circles as a means of introducing new people to trad archery. Who the hell are you? Tell us about yourself.
63 year English guy here & I would like to say many congratulations you have created simply the best Archery video I have ever seen & it was a joy to watch, The way you went through each step & technique was amazing & you absolutely hit the nail on the head with your delivery & the information that you wished to impart. I look forward to seeing more.
I harvested a doe at 28 yards with a 40# Samick Sage this past season. I set up my fixed crawl two years ago. This video was the reason. Thank You!
I'm in the UK, been an archer for 18 yrs, learned more about this subject/passion of ours watching this vid, than I have going to archery clubs here in all that time. I am now a traditional shooter and independent of clubs in England (they only care about Olympic style target archery, I couldn't even shoot an English longbow at my last club). This is like a breath of fresh air, I will watch this vid until I can recite every word! So well explained in plain language and with practical demo's - I love it, I feel as if the scales have been taken from my eyes. Thank You, Thank You so much. God bless America!
this comment was moving :P cheers and happy archery. I garden as my passion but i really enjoyed this video.
I'm glad I brought up your UA-cam Archery Movie, It has shown a distinct difference to the competitive side my wife and I were trained at our local club (this stopped completely when my wife condition worsened 15yrs ago) We went the usual route 2nd hand Alum riser Recurve Bow, and then found such freedom with our mainly Osage mix 40,45,50# 73" Longbows, with occasional Agincourt distance clout for fun, so we would have enjoyed what might be called in this country "Field Archery".
I like your soft N. American voice putting over such valuable aiming pointers along with stance presentation, thank you and your friends for this worthy display of Archery without dogma.
Hey Norm, I'm also in the uK. I shoot with 2 Field Archery clubs: have a look at the NFAS website & find a club near you. 3D targets in beautiful woodland, sounds like it would suit you.
In America archery is pointed towards compound shooting almost all shops ive been too dont even cater to trad and what they have is intro bows for kids and they almost have to order anything and everything.. Honestly if you have to order it I can do that from home I came for the hands on service.
I am an instructor pilot for military combat aircraft. It is my professional opinion that this is an excellent instructional video. My friend you have a particular flair for picking out what information is most important and presenting it in a way and at a speed that makes learning easy and entertaining. Thank you for this video.
I absolutely love this movie. I think its great this fella was willing to share all this information without charging a penny. True good will from a human being. Thank you!
Im 16 and im a junior in highschool I started doing archery when I was a sophomore, and I absolutely love it, it is a good way to calm your nerves when you are upset!😍
This is, beyond any doubt, the best how-to (on ANY topic) video I have ever watched.
My 7 yr old daughter has repeatedly expressed interest in archery. And I`ve wanted to get into it myself for years. This video has removed all doubt and trepidation and launched us on this new adventure in great stead.
Huge thanks @ThePushArchery
make sure you get an arm guard, particularly for recurve and long bow style shooting, takes a bit to get the right form where the string wont strike your inner arm on release.
I personally had more fun with learning instinctive aiming vs sighted. Something to think about.
Hope you and your youngster took it up. If so, how things going? My nephews are wanting lessons for Christmas, and think I'm going to join.
@@sctenz wild, i was just thinking about this video tonight as i ordered a custom leather arm guard from a buddy to match the knife and sheath he's making me.
We did take up archery, first by joining a local summer program held by a municipal recreation centre and then by buying our own gear and targets and screen. It's been great fun and now I'm going to step up to bow hunting for the first time.
@@mattott4274 That's good to hear. Found a place just outside Atlanta that even has a youth team. Thanks for the reply. Good luck on the hunting. Haven't ever been hunting (yet), but seems much more is involved than just good marksmanship.
I’m 63 yrs old and my first bow was at 3 yrs old shooting in the back yd with my dad. Dad passed away this past March at 93! I’ve been thinking seriously about going back to my roots and shooting traditionally and this superb video has convinced me that’s what I will do. I still have dads first Bear Kodiak hangin in my shop. Gonna try one of the newer alum risers so my son can hang them both in his shop some day to admire. Thanks so much for an excellent video! I’ll use it over and over until I become proficient and knowledgeable enuf without it!
I know what ya mean. I started out at around 5or6 with a wooden then fiberglass long bow, then in young adult all the compounds for hunting. Around 30 i got into this craze with primitive bows. 49 as of now and still crazy about long bows. 👍
I don't know how to thank you. Watched this before bed last night could not wait to get home from work. I am that Trad guy you talked about. Went to recurve 97. Some times good. Killed my share of deer but also lost 3 nice bucks here in PA. Last one broke my spirt. Your method has brought me back in one night. Unbelievable the fire is back like never before. I truly thank you Brother.
I am blown away by the Fixed Crawl. I have been shooting/hunting traditional since I was 14 years old in 1999. I always have shot instinctively. Back then, I would shoot 4-6 hours a day, all summer long, and could drop three arrows into a red solo cup at 30 yards no problem. Then came adulthood….At 23 I started traveling for work and my accuracy took a dive as I wasn’t able to shoot no where near as much as I had in previous years. I was shooting ‘just good enough’ and was able to take a handful of deer over the years. Recently, the last 3-4 years though, with a demanding job, family obligations (wife/Kid) and other numerous hobbies, I found myself unconfident of my shooting abilities. I have even been considering going with a compound but the allure of trad archery has kept me from it. I tried gap shooting but found it inconsistent and would inevitably switch back to instinctive before season opened. Then I found this video. Within an hour I was dropping 3 arrows into very tight groups at 30 yards. I haven’t shot this good in years and am amazed that I was able to increase my accuracy so quickly following the steps outlined in this video. I have found that I am instinctively drawing and my arrow is almost perfectly where it needs to be when I settle into my anchor. If it isn’t, I make the slight adjustment needed and the arrow goes where I want it to. I am beyond thankful for the detail put into this video and only wish I had found it sooner. Thank You!
The best instruction for any level archer. I have been shooting traditional for 4 years THE WRONG WAY. None of the local shops know anything about traditional shooting they always say it you want accurate shots to compound.
I watched the crawl part of this video so many times and it has made me a consistent shooter.
Thank you so so much get a patreon page so we can thank you.
my sister or dad commented that i think cuz i don't remember posting this
Dude this was very well done.
I'm picking up archery for the 1st time and i just turned 40, and i can't wait to shoot my first arrows.
@Six String Bayonet
How’s it going brotha? I found this video after randomly buying a Mongolian style horse bow. I love it.
I’m always stalking through the woods now trying to catch a deer slipping.
If every video on you tube was as thorough as yours, there would be no more questions about anything ever.
I'm very new to archery. I have an instructor but he hasn't explained things in ways that click with me (and he seems to have a biased against trad archery). My background is in mechanical engineering and military artillery, so I like to think I understand projectile motion fairly well. This video is excellent. It broke down many things my instructor has tried to teach me in a very simple way. Your simplified diagrams make perfect sense with just enough data driven info to convince someone like me. Thank you for taking the time to create this.
I have been shooting traditional archery for about 6 months now and have watched hundreds of videos on all styles of traditional shooting. this is by far the best video I have watched. you could put it on a DVD and charge. incredibly informational and I cannot wait to get to the range tomorrow and try all this out. literally it's 2am currently in Wisconsin and I'm still up watching this. thank you so much for making and sharing this!
Watching at 49min in because I was on the phone for about 47min while tv was muted lol. This is the part I wanted to learn about. I purchased my first 40lb Wooden Traditional Recurve Bow. Thank you. You’re great.
You should start off at a lower poundage. Starting at 40lb could be bad for your experience AND for your health.
This is just phenomenal. I started shooting a traditional bow when I was just a kid, and now I find that I am an old man of 50. A while back, I embraced the fact that I just don't make the world's greatest instinctive shooter. When I found out about string walking, I was eager to try it out. I clearly needed some way to aim rather than just pointing and shooting. What got to me about string walking was the fact that I could never seem to get an arrow to fly beautifully, the way a correctly spined arrow should. Walking up and down the string, changed the weight pushing behind the arrow, and therefore the arrow spine. Being a real stickler for perfectly spined shafts, I was about to give up and stick with instinctive shooting. Then one day, about 12 years ago, I began to realize that if I just drew from the same spot on the string BELOW the nocking point, I could exert better control over the trajectory of my arrow; far more so than when I was shooting instinctively. I started calling this "modified string walking", and even began to write a book about it. Needless to say, I abandoned the book a long time ago, but I've continued shooting that way ever since, and I am elated to find somebody else using the same method. Great job, brother. Keep up the good work.
This video is a masterpiece of instruction on this subject.
My sincere thanks to you for taking the time to create this movie. It is not only informative and well made but also warm and friendly.
I saw this video back in June 2016, set up my recurve and practiced, practiced, practiced. I fell in love with this method! I went hunting mule deer bucks in Northern Utah in August and bagged my first buck using this method. I ranged it at 29 yards, my limit was 30 yards, the broad head went right through its heart cutting it in 3 pieces. The broad head was a Badger, single right bevel in 125 gr. Thank you for producing this video and creating this method!
Badger broadheads are in my opinion the easiest broad head to tune they fly and penetrate really well but they need to be sharpened and not ready to hunt out of the package is the only issue
After shooting traditional bows from my teens into my late twenties i got away from it. Now that I'm in my early sixties, I'm getting back into archery. Specifically traditional. I've gotten a bow that I like the feel of and have been watching videos on methods of setting up, shooting, etc. Thank you so much for bringing this content all into one place. As you said, early on, there are hundreds of vids. Yours is THE ONLY COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH.
As a boy I shot a recurve , not knowing how I shot..
As a teen I shot a compound. Hated it!
I have shot a compound half my life,,
Been in fear of going back many years. Many years!
Not any more!
Thank you!!
Oh my gosh. I’ve been shooting trad for 25 years. You have changed my life.
Wow!! Just wow. Thank you. You just sold me on traditional archery. This is the best video I've ever seen. You answered every question I had about hunting with a recurve. You guys deserve a round of applause for this.
Question. Would an archer have difficulty string crawling on a one piece recurve? Because you wouldn't be able to adjust your tiller, you are pulling back under center. Does that make any difference?
It appears 199 animal activists have watched this video also, coz no real archer or newbie could give this video the thumbs down, 10/10 for clarity and insight. im just begining on my path in archery and youve just saved me 3 years + of figuring things out. greatly informative video, thanks so much from saving me from watching 100s of other vids. ill have to watch this one many times just to absorb all this info. i totally agree with matt ott on his opinion
I began shooting Fred Bear Recurve Bows back in 1967 and I never stopped. Bought one compound in the 1980's and knew compounds were not for me. Learned how to make beautiful arrows.
I have been an archer for about 20 years and have never seen anything as comprehensive and so well explained before. I have been able to further hone my skills. Thank you.
thanks for watching!
This guy reminds me of my favorite school teachers especially history teachers. Good teachers not only know how to convey their teachings but actually establish a general rapport with the entire class. Matt is in a class of his own. He gets your attention and holds it. I’ve shot split fingers all my life despite that almost everyone around me shot 3 under. Too close to deer season but I’m going to give this technique a try. Thank you, Matt.
Thanks Marco for the kind words!
The Push Productions
Thank you for your efforts and for sharing. Blessings.
great story/movie/documentary.
I'm a purely instinctive shooter, I don't aim ,I just raise bow and shoot. I shoot split finger or thumb ring. I wish I had seen this video 30 years ago , would definitely have helped me back then starting, have showed a bunch of ppl this and everyone has enjoyed it and taken something from it. well done sir.
Instinctive archery is the absolute best, but it takes not 100's, but 1000's of arrows being shot at all sorts of distances. But once you start getting good at it is almost a spiritual experience with your intention and laser-like focus on your target being the only way you "aim". It is the most natural way to learn how to hit what you want, but most people do not want to take the time to do this. But if you have the patience to learn this way you will never gap shoot or string crawl again.
For a lot of people is not matter of "want", but of "can". I can only train in the archery club, 2 days a week, 5 hours in total, at most. Should I stay mediocre for a few years, risking to lose interest in shooting, or should I take advantage from a method which is faster to learn and works?
I want but can't. Not enough time to make it to the range to become an effective and consistent instinctive Archer, I've tried. My next go at it will be string walking and a fixed crawl.
'xactly. Otherwise just put a sight on a recurve. Sights are cheap. Sights have been around long enough to be traditional. Must be a fashion thing.
I was just at Compton and one of the speakers spoke out in praise of this film , thank you for making it . I wish you the best in hunting and with your family
Very cool!! Who was the speaker that mentioned the film?

Thank you for this video! You have single handedly spread the gift of archery to a lot of people with this video. We need more people like you!!
I'm 63 years old and have been shooting compound bows since the early 70s, I've always wanted to shoot just a stick and string but I couldn't hit a bull in the butt of he was standing on my foot with one! Now after watching this young man's video I'm going to try it again, I'll get me a good recurve bow, I have tons of arrows and I plan on getting it right now that I have gotten proper information, great job young man, great job!
Mate, thank you so much. This film is pure gold for the trad archer, and at least silver for any other archer. Appreciated.
This video has been THE best instructional videos that I've ever seen! I've been into archery for over 42 years and still believe a person can continue to learn something new. It would be a privilege to meet this man and shoot a few arrow with him.
I'm beginning in Archery and just found this This is like an in depth documentary. You are an excellent teacher and you use lean speech to explain complex theory and practice. Thank you for the huge amount of work you have done to share this freely.
Well how bloody good was that.
Sat in England, Nov 6 2020. Can't watch your election results, but I found this instead The people that made America Great. Still there. Good luck Yanks.
I shot three D and deer hunted for several years with a recurve. When my accuracy dropped off I took a course from a professional. The new system work great. A few years ago I just quit shooting all together. I just started back practicing for three D. The system I was using that the professional taught me seems to be getting me back on track. That said , this video was so well done, if my accuracy drops off again I will definitely give your system or try. It makes a lot more sense than pure gap shooting. I’m glad I stuck with it and watch the whole video.
I tell ya anybody serious about learning about primitive archery should cherish this video. Thanks very informative vid. I've shot bows for 40 years and learned from this. 👍
As someone who has been shooting since 9 years old, this is my simple recommendation.
Start with a recurve. No sights no counter balance. Learn to aim by feel.
Get the feel of where the arrow shaft is pointing to, imagine the arc the arrow might travel, how the arrow might drift in the wind.
Putting the dot in the circle on compound bows does not develop the feel of aiming.
It's like learning to write with a keyboard and monitor rather than pen and paper.
I love when people nerd out, regardless of topic. It speaks volumes about people. And you definitely fall into that category!
I started shooting a recurve a couple of months ago, partly to reconnect with my brother who is a bow hunter. And apart from the added benefit of spending more quality time with him the past 2 months than we have had in 15 years, I must say the community is really awesome and supportive. I went to a 3d shoot out and people were just having fun, enjoying everything, and giving me advice since i am clearly a novice.
I dont think i will ever put down the bow again.
Thank you for an excellent and instructive movie!
This film is gold dust. I have recently started archery and can’t believe my luck in stumbling across this item. Probably the best tuition I have seen on any subject. Thanks.
Absolutely the best film about anything I’ve watched on UA-cam. Thank you for doing this. I’m getting back into archery again after about a 10 yr break. I’ve learned SO much from your film and am excited to put this into practice
Watched this video, went to the closet and grabbed my dads old bear and took it to the shop to have it set up. This has motivated me to harvest a deer with this method. Thank you for your time and passion in this craft. Much love brother.
Shoot it like the legend that built it. He was a snap shooter.
Every archer should REVIEW this video, at least 3 times. Well done and as an a archer for "60" years, I learned a couple new tips.Thanks
I too am a beginner Recurve Archer and randomly found your Superb video.
I think its very important to understand the theory and you explained/demonstrated this so well.
Now I understand gap shooting and finger walking in relation to point on.
I cant wait to try these methods out and don't have to watch any other poorer videos.
Thank you very much for your brilliant tuition. Take care.
I cannot thank you enough for this video. I haven't shot my bow in probably a year until I stumbled across this video. I was so intrigued by your method that I broke out my bow and gave your way a try... WOW.. Having not shot in over a year and I was instantly more accurate than I have EVER been. My son was watching and yelled "Whoa!... teach me!" And ran and grabbed his bow. Again, thank you so much for rekindling my love of traditional archery!
Thanks A lot guys ,from Australia . I've been shooting 70 pound compound for some time now ,but recently baught a take down recurve long bow to have as my backup for hunting . I had a lot of questions and nobody to ask in the Bush , where I'm living . Your Film was really great ,answering a lot of my questions so thanks very much !!! :) I think in future ,I'd like to see more of your films, in the field hunting skills, building a hide ,for eg. And tips for hunting in the wilderness! Thanks again Brothers keep up the great work ,it's helping Brothers and Sisters all around the world,I hope you realise that :) . Peace ,Unity ,Respect !
I grew up with a small recurve my dad bought me. Heck even when I was very small I was shooting squirrels in the back yard with suction cup tipped arrows. I moved into wheeled archery when I was 18 and have killed at least one deer a year with a bow except one year when I could not seem to get a shot to save my life. I'm currently 54 and still do 99% of my hunting with a bow of some sort. I recently got a really sweet setup from a great guy who set me up with one of his machined risers and some uukha limbs and his custom strings. I am currently building some arrows and getting in some finger tabs and a few other accessories so I can shoot it, but I'm super excited. I've had a few nice recurves in the past, a Zipper being one the better ones but had no one to show me much back in those days. This video is truly a wealth of knowledge and although it is a bit long, it is very detailed and thorough. I learned a lot and look forward to giving this a try. Thank you for taking the time to put this together!
This is some of the most in depth and well done introduction to traditional archery on the internet
This is a superb movie, even if you are simply diving down an archery rabbiit-hole on an otherwise boring weekend. I have learned enough from this to feel sufficiently confident to go out and buy my first bow, and arrows, and begin practising in the next door field, all alone, miles away from any club or instruction. I do believe I can do this, and who knows; maybe in year or two take a wild pig. Thanks for the effort of filming and editing and making the movie, and uploading it for everyone and anyone to learn from. Superbly done, muito obrigado from Portugal.
Wow thx a lot. That was by far the best tutorial about bow shooting I have ever watched. Very good explained. Even for a not native English speaker it was easy to follow the point you wanted to explain. Perfect.
What can I say that hasn't been said 1100 times already? The quintessential video for any archery enthusiast. This will be the video I recommend to anyone asking about a good reference source for archery 'basics'. The blooper real at the end with the lads and your mates was really the icing on the cake. Really well done and thanks.
Normally, I am typically bored and tune out at this point. You sir are a fine archer and have one of the best archery program I have heard in 12 years.
I wish I had you to learn from
12 years ago.
Loop
I am so impressed to see so many young folks interested in traditional archery. I built my first self bow in the early 90's when I saw the first Primitive Archer magazine. I never dreamed traditional archery would ever take off like it has.
Wow!!!! Fricken wow! I had no idea about a fixed crawl. This a game changer. This video was literally exactly what I needed, I just changed to 3 under which has increased my accuracy but consistency is still the issue like most primitive/traditional archers. I am pretty much shaking I’m so excited to start setting up my knocks and measuring out my 25 yard point on. Thank you so much for this in depth video, I really appreciate the effort you put into it. I will be religiously following your podcast.
I’m just getting into traditional archery. I have been searching around UA-cam for help. This is the most comprehensive explanation I have found so far. The delivery is honest and sincere. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. I’m very grateful.
I have shot and watched countless videos on archery for over 45 years and no doubt this is the best. Great Job! I will recommend " Push Archery " to all friends and family. Thank You!
This is truly the best presented and most informative video on archery I have ever seen. Such a calm, relaxed presentation . I learned stuff I'd never really considered before, and I've been an active archer for over 50 years.
I know it's long at over two hours, but stick with it ...Every minute is a gem !
I'm about to buy my first bow for hunting and I'm so glad I found this video when I did, being able to start practicing with this method from the beginning. Such a great video, I'm so excited for the day when I'll have the skill and confidence to go out and take a real animal.
I'm glad you said that about the need for skill at the end there, - I'm against hunting but I'm not going to screech on about that. However, - the bloke who left the comment above yours SAYS himself that he almost literally cannot hit a barn door from 20 paces yet still feels ok about shooting at wildlife. Thanks for appreciating that skill is a necessity for both you and the things you intend to hunt.
What a good damn movie, for real guys. This movie has transformed my shot over the last 2 weeks. Thank you so much for doing this.
Sir i just want to say THANK YOU! this is by far the most information i have ever found about Trad. your explanations are very simple to understand and i feel like you made the video specifically for me. Im the guy your talking about, ive bowhunted for 25yrs with a compound and shot Trad off and on for 5yrs with more frustration than success. Im teetering on the bubble from my Oneidas and Trad gear and selling all of my wheel bows for good. I try to share my wealth of knowledge about bowfishing on here as well but i doubt ill ever do it to the level of professionalism you have brought together here. THANK YOU.
I found this video, a couple weeks ago and, finally, decided to watch. Thank you!!!! I've been hunting with a compound for 11 years. A few years ago I bought a Bear recurve and tried my hardest to figure it out. But, to my demise, it went into the closet. Too hard to learn and quite frankly, it was a pain in the ass, not having anyone who knew what they were talking about.. About a week ago I decided to dust it off/ re-wax the string and go with the GAP method ( after watching Clay Hayes). Once I got a couple of arrows tuned, I noticed, right away, that I was getting tighter groups. But, this whole fixed crawl idea, sounds like the cat's pajamas. Two dedicated point on spots......who would've guessed?!?! I can't wait to get in the backyard and get this thing dialed in.
in 1925 a Penobscot (Panawahpskek) Indian chief (Northeastern USA and Canada) invented an adjustable draw weight with a "double bow" system. To this day, many Penobscot Indians use the 'Penobscot bow'. I am a traditional archer who makes his own bows usually with Red Oak or Maple wood. I am also Kalinago Indian (Northern Venezuela and Guyana through the Lower Antilles Islands and up to Honduras). Making your own bow has always been normal with my people. for thousands of years. I have made many Penobscot type bows that I adjust from 40 to 95 lbs by twisting the secondary bow strings.
I have enjoyed your presentation.
Mabrika !!
I am 64 years old and a beginner in archery and I take everything I see, but what has already been written, this is absolutely the most informative video on a subject I have ever seen on UA-cam.
I am so grateful for everything you offered.
A big thank you to you guys
Anders, Sweden
This is such an amazing film! I've been watching several archery videos in the past couple of weeks, and this one blows them all out of the water. Even my web searches didn't come close to providing the amount of quality information that these two hours did. Thank you for all the work it took to make this masterpiece!
I've got a bone to pick with you sir. Since adopting the fixed crawl I've been damaging the fletching on my brand new arrows because the groups are so tight.
Dude, I got 4 Robin Hoods, thanks to this video.
My poor Gold Tip Trad arrows :((((
That's good to hear! This video has reinforced my decision to give trad a try. I'm a compound shooter so I'm used to aiming at different points of the target for each shot.
Hey the way to fix that is by using a five point target
Butthole The Barbarian holy crap that sucks
Well every situation have It's cons 'n pros, I think they call it to live lol
The demonstration of a three point anchor is genius!
Recently just purchased a Toelke long bow after shooting a compound for 15+ years and this information in this video is the best I’ve watched by far thanks for all the help. Can’t wait to implement some of this
Btw, probably the best video I've seen about archery in general, very informative for begginers like me! Thank you again!
I own a 'recurve-take down' bow...
What a fantastic video! I've been shooting / hunting with trad gear for 10 years now. This got me thinking about my approach to my shooting and the gear I use. Thanks for putting this out there!
I've sent this link to people over the last 3 or 4 years and after shooting traditional archery for almost 30 years this was something I needed. Thanks!
Hello and greetings from Austria (speaking German). Great video! And you speak an English that I understand very well. I shoot tradition with ILF system. Was me a pleasure to have seen your video. Thank you very much for your effort to produce this.
What an amazing film! Your hard work and dedication can be seen throughout the entire project. God bless you and your family!
What a great educational film really enjoyed it learned a lot about how I shoot which I never realised I was doing good and bad,,I Like the way this young fella presents calm and confident not a insulting word for anybody if all our young men had this kind of attitude the world would be a better place,Thanks for the film and good luck to all involved your a credit to real men.
My son just started shooting NASP Archery and has been struggling with instinctive archery. I have been shooting with him after shooting open freestyle with a compound bow for nearly 35 years. I was struggling with instinctive shooting as well and was getting bummed because I wasn't much help to him. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! After numerous videos and books I stumbled across this video. Hands down the best video on the subject I have ever saw!
Of ALL the traditional archery videos I have watched..this IS BY FAR THE BEST.
I started with a Pearson offset wheel, then graduated to a Hoyt compound. For the last five years I have been trying to figure out the traditional bow, and how to properly shoot it.
I'm only half way through this movie/ video, and I have learned 200% more than I have in five years...THANKS.
No filler, all information, all clear and concise. I can't wait for my first bow to arrive to put these steps into practice, and hopefully travel to the states for a bow hunting trip in the future.
Spoiler Alert ! This video does not have any animations, superfluous music, bragging, fuss, emotions and advertisements. It's pure knowledge honed from years of experience and trials and errors.
Inspired
Compound Bow Hunter here I’ve been wanting a traditional bow, but never got one because I didn’t believe I could be accurate but now I know I-can I am absolutely inspired great film thank you sir
Fantastic information, thank you. I picked up some great new things to implement into my training. Regarding your comment about slowing down, don’t shoot a dozen arrows at once. I shoot maybe four and then look at what I’ve done and digest it. Walk over and get those four and set up again.
Ive been shooting bare bow for 50 years and learned something. Thanks for doing such an informative video.
I don't know how often I already watched this. But after a while I'm always coming back. This is awesome. Great stuff, well done. Thanks a lot for this.
I just wanted to thank you for the time and energy you put into making this film. As someone who is an avid self educator in all things, this is exactly what I have been scouring the internet in hopes of finding on my journey into traditional archery. I found this to be very informative and of great assistance in my pursuit of knowledge. As a native Pennsylvanian in the south hills area i'd be down to shoot the breeze around a campfire sometime. Keep up the great work - Ryan
Wow!!! This is the absolute, hands-down, best traditional archery video I have ever seen amazing!!!
Ive put off watching this for months, and im glad I held on to this gem. You are very appreciated, my friend!
This is the. Best. Instructional video for anyone who wants to shoot a trad bow.
Rewatching. Loved it the first time, enjoying it just as much now.
I've been shooting traditional gear instinctive for 4 years and never had enough confidence to hunt with it. I'll be giving the fixed crawl some practice in the off season. Maybe next year will be my year
P.s. love the blooper reel
2 years ago I decided to give traditional archery a shot and I quickly gave up after missing a doe. Randomly I got the urge again and I have decided I'm going all in at least until I fill a tag. This this video has boosted my confidence so much. Amazing job, thank you.
I've watched this film 3 times now. I keep coming back as a reference guide. Thank you so much for this awesome piece of work. Nice Filson shirt BTW...I have the same one :)
Plenty of better information out there than this clown
@@johnphillipsjr7238 why don't you and him have a shooting contest then if you beat him we will listen to your opinion instead of his.
Like you? Show them how it’s done John Phillips - you go girl
Excellent instruction and you didn't waste a second- it's all there.
New to Trad. Archery and WOW!!! I was not prepared for the amount of knowledge jammed into this short video. I have referenced back to this video several times as I start this new journey.
I've been a compound bow hunter for 20 yrs... this year traditional archery has peaked my interest and this video answered questions about things I didn't even know how to ask !!!
I will be referring to this for a very long time. Thank you for making this, seriously.
Instinctive takes a while to learn, but once you can do it it is rewarding and so much fun
The key to all this is. you have to know the distance to the target to utilize all these methods of aiming. Can't do that, you can't aim. However; you can use a field laser range finder. The downside to "Gap" aiming is not only do you need to know the distance to the target you have to try to figure out what lets say 25 inches is for your gap. What does it look like at lets say 30 yards. With "string Walking" all you have to know is the distance to the target then slide your thumb down a predetermined distance on your tab. IF everything remains the same it should always work except for human error Great video by the way.
been a compound archery shooting and bowhunter for 12 years....been so interested in getting into traditional archery and stumbled upon this video and was amazed...this is the best how to video I have ever watched and so helpful , thank you
This is an amazingly informative film. Thanks so much for sharing! Not only have you answered pretty much all my questions, but you answered many I hadn't thought of. This is brilliant. And I really appreciate the time you've taken in laying all this out, because it is a huge amount of important information. And you've made it immensely comprehensible through your intelligent, articulate delivery. Amazing! I'm going to recommend this to all my friends.
This has been the most informative show I have ever watched for bow hunting. Just wanted to say thank you!
