I've finished my 1st self-made bow! My family thought it was so good, I'm now making 4 more so we can all shoot together! If you didn't give such good step by step tips, it wouldn't have been so successful! Thank you!!!
@@halloweendonut4355 it depends on how clunky they are. i feel like, at least for me, they hinder your movement in your hands and/or accidentally mess up the shot. but if it’s thin enough i guess it can work??? though i personally don’t recommend it
When I was younger I wanted to learn how to shoot bows like medieval adventurers, but the local archery club only had, in my young words, 'ugly bows' (aka compound bows). So, I got a pretty cheap recurve bow and a leather glove at a ren fair and I was super excited to try it out. UA-cam wasn't really a thing then, so I just went in completely blind. After a few shots, the string came off and hit me right in the face. Had a red line going right through my face for days and dropped it after that. Was thinking of getting back into it with some better research this time (and a better bow haha), so this video is a great help, thanks!
Excellent advice!! I agree with every point you made. But I'd like to reiterate your point about starting out with a low draw weight bow. If you are struggling to pull the bow back, it's difficult to focus on shooting. If it's easy to pull, it's a lot more fun too. Great video, thanks for posting.
This video is sooo great thank you! Haven't shot an arrow yet but already got a bow and get the rest on christmas. This really prepares me for my first shot
@@AbuMaia01 Yes I just had a look into it. There was a master who hit a target in pitch darkness but that didnt do it for me because he did that same movement and same distance for the last 30-40years proving that the arrow would find its target... Still quite cool though all in all
@@Idontknow-ly9bu Or...you know...instinctive shooting. Nice to go "dreamy wishy wannabe superhero" because it was Japanese. Do you aim when you throw a ball? Not really.
Good tips here especially back tension and release. One small thing, other phones will work too, any cell phone for video, doesn't have to be an iphone...
One of the best videos I've seen for new archers, I think you nailed most of the basics. Also the new tabs look awesome! Are they Cordovan faced? Stay blessed.
holy shit, the grab the golf ball, and the pull the elbow back is exactly what I needed to hear. I never realized I was letting my elbow stick out. THANK YOU
Watched this before my first shots with my new hickory self bow (made it in April). Had not shot a bow since I was a kid. Really helped me hit my target.
Love the videos! I'm learning so much about archery and making bows, can't wait to give it all a shot 😝🙃 I know exactly where I'll be getting my string and tab from!
Love watching your videos man! A lot of good info here and if nothing else I love how excited you are doing this. You can tell you are really passionate and dedicated with what you're doing and its awesome to watch! Keep 'em coming man!
You are very skilled at what you do. You make beautiful bows, and you inspire me very very much. Thankyou for your videos, keep uploading them forever. If I had enough money I would buy a bow from you. Cause my recurved horsebow are at 70lbs and so hard to draw. But maybe on day I will manage to draw it. Thank you for what you do. Very impressive.
I was excited to start practicing with the arm band b4 my string came in the mail that I bought from you. I'm just starting out. Did it like three times and the arm band broke. 😭 Thats what I get for buying cheap workout gear lol
Kramer, I wanted to let you know that I made the "Tillering Gizmo" I had been working on tillering my bow for a few days, after making and using the Gizmo I had the bow exactly where I wanted in in just a few hours ... i really liked your beginners guide. lots of great points. thank you.
Thank you! I've noticed before that I'm much more accurate when I'm not thinking about aiming, so your tip to concentrate on good release form instead really helped me!
I want to build a bow and learn how to shoot it, but I live in a suburban area, and I'm getting the impression that shooting a longbow in a tiny backyard isn't the safest idea. Any recommendations on how to find a good location to practice archery?
Thank you for this. The golf ball idea is great. I've been practicing for a couple weeks with a pretty badly warped, traditional recurve bow. I'm assuming this isn't going to help my aim? I don't know. I'm a total newbie. My upper back and my abs are pretty sore so I think my form is decent. My release has been a pain though. After recording myself in slow motion I noticed two things. One, just before I loose each arrow, 9/10 times my draw arm moves forward an inch or two. Two, when I release, I tend to pull my hand away from my cheek instead of letting it glide back. Even though I am consciously telling myself to do that, it won't. Being able to imagine a golf ball on my shoulder and giving myself the objective of gently grabbing it I think will help with my grouping drastically.
I REALLY want to get into archery but don't know where to start or even how to buy a bow. I shot once during a vacation and loved how relaxing and meditative it all felt. It felt so good to hit the target--never mind the bulls eye! lol I just don't want to get taken advantage of by unscrupulous sellers looking to make a buck off of someone ignorant. How do I start? Thanks for the videos. I enjoy seeing your craft.
ha! what timing. i bought my first bow cause of your channel 2 weeks ago, and now i've bought my first traditional bow just yesterday. i'm already in love with archery. I had a question i was wondering if you could answer, the longbow I just bought is bamboo backed and it has a very light beige stain. I'm interested in dying it a darker colour, and wondering what the best way to do that would be and if it would compromise the integrity of the wood at all. i'm also interested in wood burning or in some way putting some designs on the front of the bow, and again wondering if that would at all comrpomise the integrity of the wood. hopefully you can let me know because google sends back mixed results !
nice video! its weird... that golf ball exercise it's awesome! I believe you have a better form with the band, I've noticed that you move your head toward the arrow to make your anchor point, I believe you have to bring the arrow to your head, not the other way.. maybe I'm mistaken or maybe it's just a bad habit. ;) cool!
Love your videos buuutttt, where do you get your bows? Definitely buying your tabs but I want a traditional bow. If you make them yourself I would love to purchase one.
I haven't shot since i was a teenager but i loved it what would be your advice for q missing trigger finger, when I learned I shot with 1 over 2 under, im thinking if i were to shoot now i would just use my last 3 fingers below
I shot coumpound for A long time and it was easy in my opinion or maybe I just anfast learned anyway I got a old recurve from my grandfather and I've been shooting it ever since so personally I'd pick recurve because it's more challenging and is more fun 😁 I hope this helped if u need anything else just comment and I'll try to help
I'm 11 months late, but I love shooting my 60lbs recurve bow and I shoot I believe right handed? (I draw with my right hand) but I'm my left eye I'm missing a sensor so I can't fully look left or I go cross eyed, so I usually face more towards the target and I can shoot somewhat accurate, but I want to get more accurate. What are some good tips I could do to help my aim?
What app shell i download to shoot a bow? First time i shot a bow i was 4 yrs old, gun at 5yrs. But its sooo much easier now with apps and youtube selling me all the useful shite i really need.
Just got my string in today, looks awesome! Can't wait to get it on the recurve. Eventually I want to hunt with my recurve. This is a terrific video. I keep watching and learning. Thanks Kramer!
Hi Kramer I have really enjoyed your videos and obvious passion for traditional bow making you have inspired me to make my own... unfortunately three bows in I am left with nothing but a load of shavings and some firewood, as I live in NZ there is a distinct shortage of quality hard woods and I can only get my hands on Kwila (Merbau) is this the issue or something else. Cheers keep up the great work
So I’m new in archery and I’m interested in buying a bow I have one that I made but I would like to buy one And I was wondering if I was shooting wrong I am right handed so I grab the string and arrow with my right hand and grab the bow with my left hand But were I put the arrow in the bow is in the right side of the string and I was wondering if that was wrong because I have been seeing your videos and I saw that you shoot or you put your arrow in the left side of the bow string am I doing it wrong ?
Want to thank you for inspiring me to dive in and make a few new bows ,I've made a few in the past but they were more survival stile kinda down an dirty ,but I have made a few in the past month starting with the popular bow , which was a failure developed compression wrinkles on the belly,but have made two Red Oak board bows since the failed popular bow ,that turned out decent respectable bows thanks for the inspiration
I love your channel and I find it very helpful and extremely entertaining. You encouraged me to build my first bow which worked out amazingly but it was a little week. Thanks to your videos I know exactly what I did wrong. I’m working on fixing it right now.Keep up the good content.
Awesome video, loving the content :) my question is what are you doing with your left shoulder (the arm holding the bow) when you draw and release? I got really into archery a while back, and though I really like it, over time I have developed issues in my left shoulder (not using a high poundage bow.) Many people talk about back tension, finger placement, and the movements and alignment with the drawing arm, but few if any seem to mention the bracing arm. Thanks for the video!
I doubt anyone else does this, but I flip my wrist placing index finger below and 2 above. I've no idea why, but it just feels more confortable and I get a pretty straight shot with it.
There’s a UA-cam video of a Eastern European girl “rapid shooting” her stick bow in a gym. She uses the same grip you speak of. I had never seen or heard of it before. I think for speed shooting from a shoulder quiver it might be a must-do if you want to be fast.
I watched this video and used a small tree as a target, I know I have to get a bulls eye., but from 8 arrows, 4 passed slightly off the target… 2 missed very badly and then I remembered I should start from the left when pulling the arrow, so the last 2 hit the tree. Around a foot apart from each other. This is my first time, so I hope more of your videos help me.
Hey Kramer, i'm really interested in learning but as a beginner i've got some really basic questions regarding the length of the bow and draw weight - how do I determine that . as well just starting out you mention dropping 20lbs ( draw weight ) to get started , when will i know when to invest in an intermediate bow? been meaning to do this for a while your videos have been key , can't wait to get started - what one of your bows would you recommend - cheers
Love watching the videos! I’ve seen a handful of your videos on best products for archery but what would you recommend for someone who is starting & is putting together a backyard archery range? (I need a backstop since I have a fenced in backyard :P)
Great video, mostly good reminders but also learned something new. The golfbal trick will help a lot with my release. 1 thing I also learned is the not hold your bow, but to let it rest on the palm of you hand when pulling back the arrow. I have a leather band around my bow and wrist and let the bow fall after each shot. Again great video I really enjoy these video's.
Your not showing us a traditional bow, but a Hollywood studio bow!! Look up real historical traditional Bows. Thank you so much for your knowledge. Yours truly Me
HI ALL My comment on learning and maintaining instinctive memory is to. #1 shoot from close enough range that the outcome is certain "input only good data " Only when you can hit the mark with every shoot, should you allow yourself to advance. #2 You will never will the arrow to the mark. "Remove your self as an obstacle to the shot" #3 Create a solid balanced platform for the shot. #4 Do not dwell on a miss." If you have done your part it is not a concern of yours" I like to think of it as a magic trick. Just because you know how it is done doesn't mean that you can pull it off. Only you can polish the trick. And you will if you are honest with your self about your effective range.
i weigh 117 pounds, and im 5'1". i have a 45 pound bow but i find it difficult to draw back all the way. i dont have the nicest bow, but i was wondering, is a 45 pound bow the right one for me to start with?
While target bow shooting or hunting does it matter which is your dominant eye and should that come into play when selecting a compound bow. Please answer because I think this is important too me. Thx
I love watching all of your videos they always contain lots of great points but I find some of them very difficult to follow because you are speaking so fast . Would it be possible for you to slow down a little please? thank you, Pete.
Damn great video for a beginner, which I am despite my have shot bow for years, one thing: I think the more fingers you put on the string the easier it will be to drow and the more difficult to have a clean release, I personally use thumb draw or Slavic release (1 and 2 fingers) and I find it great, also have you ever tried shooting with one of these stiles, with the arrow on the right side of the bow? It makes you able to shoot more arrows in less time, and it's really fun
I used to shoot Mediterranean, but I tried Slavic a couple weeks back and I really liked it. I was already shooting off of the thumb side of the bow and happened to be Slavic. With Mediterranean, my finger above the arrow would always get pinched between the arrow and the string and would start hurting after many shots. Also, I can get a much better anchor point with this style. I can put the arrow right up against my face because the top finger isn't in the way.
@@davidkhrystenko what I prefer the most about Slavic drow is that you can put the arrow on the string, draw and shoot basically in one single movement
I came here to learn about archery, not about super product you want me to sell on my first video about archery. Dislike for you and your chanel. Sell it to someone else.
We have the same taste. I would also like to know. It’s a powerful piece IMO. Belongs in a scene of trial, tribulation or triumph. Not product promotion. Lol😂 I believe at one point or another, there was an app that would listen to any music being played, and it was really good at identifying what that music was. I don’t know if it was good enough to recognize special audio clips like this, though.
I've finished my 1st self-made bow! My family thought it was so good, I'm now making 4 more so we can all shoot together! If you didn't give such good step by step tips, it wouldn't have been so successful! Thank you!!!
good job!
Good
as an archer myself, these are actually really good tips you've given
I have a quick question, does aiming in gloves affect the movement in some way? Or is it totally ok?
@@halloweendonut4355 it depends on how clunky they are. i feel like, at least for me, they hinder your movement in your hands and/or accidentally mess up the shot. but if it’s thin enough i guess it can work??? though i personally don’t recommend it
@@nelloed okay, thank you so much for answering, i really appreciate it. Have a great day!
@@halloweendonut4355 hey no problem lmao. you too 😌

Sounds a lot like Japanese kyudo. They say you don't aim to hit the target. When you're doing everything right, the arrow will find the target.
That sounds a bit to dreamy wishy wannbe superhero for me
@@Idontknow-ly9bu Well, kyudo does have a very definite spiritual aspect to it. Some people liken it more to meditation than a sport.
@@AbuMaia01 Yes I just had a look into it. There was a master who hit a target in pitch darkness but that didnt do it for me because he did that same movement and same distance for the last 30-40years proving that the arrow would find its target... Still quite cool though all in all

AbuMaia01 if you want tutorials on Asian traditional archery give my vids a shot
I wanna play whack-a-mole while watching this. This guy pops up everywhere on the screen...
As a new bow shooter ( is that the right term ) i really enjoyed this video you explain and answer a lot of questions i have thanks
You're an archer now brother 😎🤘
Good tips here especially back tension and release. One small thing, other phones will work too, any cell phone for video, doesn't have to be an iphone...
Yeah, always bugs me when people say that.
I can't fathom buying a cool kid toy that will be lame in two weeks.
You forgot the most important thing, always video horizontally.
One of the best videos I've seen for new archers, I think you nailed most of the basics. Also the new tabs look awesome! Are they Cordovan faced?
Stay blessed.
holy shit, the grab the golf ball, and the pull the elbow back is exactly what I needed to hear. I never realized I was letting my elbow stick out. THANK YOU
me too
I’ve been watching several beginner archery videos as I’ve just purchased my first traditional bow. This was the best video I’ve seen yet. Good stuff
I am planning to buy one. Which one did you buy?
Watched this before my first shots with my new hickory self bow (made it in April). Had not shot a bow since I was a kid. Really helped me hit my target.
Love the videos! I'm learning so much about archery and making bows, can't wait to give it all a shot 😝🙃 I know exactly where I'll be getting my string and tab from!

Love watching your videos man! A lot of good info here and if nothing else I love how excited you are doing this. You can tell you are really passionate and dedicated with what you're doing and its awesome to watch! Keep 'em coming man!
That is correct. A 100% correct
Golf ball on shoulder idea is awesome!
Wonderful teacher 💆🏾♂️🙏🏿
Also with a heavier bow, especially, you should b pushing with your bow hand as much as u are pulling with your string hand. Keep up the good work!
You are very skilled at what you do. You make beautiful bows, and you inspire me very very much. Thankyou for your videos, keep uploading them forever.

How I didn't remember before. Perfect!
Yes please. Beautiful editing. and Great message.
Would love to see a quiver with the same materials as your tabs...
Thanks for sharing these awesome tips! Definitely going to apply these asap to improve my form and shot release!
I was excited to start practicing with the arm band b4 my string came in the mail that I bought from you. I'm just starting out. Did it like three times and the arm band broke. 😭 Thats what I get for buying cheap workout gear lol
Great back tension advice, as someone who struggles with target panic that is some great advice
Great video 🤟
Sick intro!
Kramer, I wanted to let you know that I made the "Tillering Gizmo" I had been working on tillering my bow for a few days, after making and using the Gizmo I had the bow exactly where I wanted in in just a few hours ... i really liked your beginners guide. lots of great points. thank you.
Great vid
how could you have possibly already watched it all? its been out for 1 min
skyfox I don’t have to all his videos are great
Awesome, thanks

trying to write a scene where a character's father is teaching her how to shoot a bow and this is really helpful!
Could I use tight leather gloves instead of a tab?
Thank you for this. The golf ball idea is great. I've been practicing for a couple weeks with a pretty badly warped, traditional recurve bow. I'm assuming this isn't going to help my aim?

Can you make a video on thumb rings

I had a question i was wondering if you could answer, the longbow I just bought is bamboo backed and it has a very light beige stain. I'm interested in dying it a darker colour, and wondering what the best way to do that would be and if it would compromise the integrity of the wood at all.
i'm also interested in wood burning or in some way putting some designs on the front of the bow, and again wondering if that would at all comrpomise the integrity of the wood. hopefully you can let me know because google sends back mixed results !

trying to decide on whether to get a compound bow or recurve
I shot coumpound for A long time and it was easy in my opinion or maybe I just anfast learned anyway I got a old recurve from my grandfather and I've been shooting it ever since so personally I'd pick recurve because it's more challenging and is more fun 😁 I hope this helped if u need anything else just comment and I'll try to help

Just got my first take down recurve today, this helped tremendously bro thanks.
Where do u find ur featherd Arrows
ahah the other day my mom was using an exercise band thingy and she broke it in half and now were all petrified to use them again lol
Buy a stronger one, I study ballet and the cheap ones are thin. There are different levels of thickness to it.
I do three under 1 on top
Cause im weak
Love watching the videos! I’ve seen a handful of your videos on best products for archery but what would you recommend for someone who is starting & is putting together a backyard archery range? (I need a backstop since I have a fenced in backyard :P)
Why does everybody always reference iphones when talking about smartphones in general?
Great video, mostly good reminders but also learned something new. The golfbal trick will help a lot with my release.

Again great video I really enjoy these video's.

Your not showing us a traditional bow, but a Hollywood studio bow!! Look up real historical traditional Bows. Thank you so much for your knowledge. Yours truly Me
Do u hunt? Or just Target shooting? Just curious
There are some videos of him hunting, check them out... Its worth it!
Hi god bless have a good one
HI ALL
My comment on learning and maintaining instinctive memory is to.
#1 shoot from close enough range that the outcome is certain "input only good data "
Only when you can hit the mark with every shoot, should you allow yourself to advance.
#2 You will never will the arrow to the mark. "Remove your self as an obstacle to the shot"
#3 Create a solid balanced platform for the shot.
#4 Do not dwell on a miss." If you have done your part it is not a concern of yours"
I like to think of it as a magic trick. Just because you know how it is done doesn't mean that you can pull it off. Only you can polish the trick. And you will if you are honest with your self about your effective range.
Why do you keep saying iPhone; are you sponsored?
Yeah, always bugs me when people don't just say "phone"
i weigh 117 pounds, and im 5'1". i have a 45 pound bow but i find it difficult to draw back all the way. i dont have the nicest bow, but i was wondering, is a 45 pound bow the right one for me to start with?
I don't usually use tabs but I will say those are probably the best I've ever seen.
While target bow shooting or hunting does it matter which is your dominant eye and should that come into play when selecting a compound bow. Please answer because I think this is important too me. Thx

Hello I just wanted to ask you will you giveaway one of your bows and make giveaway
No! Stop being a fucking beggar you cheap ass.
Damn great video for a beginner, which I am despite my have shot bow for years, one thing: I think the more fingers you put on the string the easier it will be to drow and the more difficult to have a clean release, I personally use thumb draw or Slavic release (1 and 2 fingers) and I find it great, also have you ever tried shooting with one of these stiles, with the arrow on the right side of the bow? It makes you able to shoot more arrows in less time, and it's really fun
I used to shoot Mediterranean, but I tried Slavic a couple weeks back and I really liked it. I was already shooting off of the thumb side of the bow and happened to be Slavic. With Mediterranean, my finger above the arrow would always get pinched between the arrow and the string and would start hurting after many shots. Also, I can get a much better anchor point with this style. I can put the arrow right up against my face because the top finger isn't in the way.
@@davidkhrystenko what I prefer the most about Slavic drow is that you can put the arrow on the string, draw and shoot basically in one single movement
I came here to learn about archery, not about super product you want me to sell on my first video about archery. Dislike for you and your chanel. Sell it to someone else.
This video is so chaotic. I couldn't get past the horrible intro music. :(
F**ck me.. i just ordered a 40lbs bow.. and I've never ever shot any bow in my life
Have you ever considered speaking at half the speed? It would be much easier to follow for a beginner!
Good lord, take a deep breath...I feel like beginner archers need to slow down and get the key things right. Why the rush?!
If your arms and elbows are inline with the arrow. Your fingers aren't toqueing the arrow up or down. But letting it release clean on target.
Man!! That background noise is very bad!! Can't watch this...
Everyone is selling something...
Everyone's gotta eat
I wish he'd speak a bit more slowly. I'm getting exhausted just listening 😆
I need help shaping my arrow rest. I find it keep on damaging the fletching on my arrows.
Strange, I was taught to put the nock/string to my cheek and push the bow out. It was explained that you have more power on the push then the pull.
Wow, I am going to try the golf ball tip tonight and I am sure it will help me king of a LOT! thanks!!!
music was very distracting and not why i clicked this ! seemed nice and si i did thumbs up :>)
What is the name of the song at 2:25? :)
We have the same taste. I would also like to know. It’s a powerful piece IMO. Belongs in a scene of trial, tribulation or triumph. Not product promotion. Lol😂
I believe at one point or another, there was an app that would listen to any music being played, and it was really good at identifying what that music was. I don’t know if it was good enough to recognize special audio clips like this, though.
