Archers at the Olympics shoot with recurve bows |

Recurve bows are mechanically the same as traditional bows that have been around for 1000s of years, they’re just made with modern materials and techniques. More archery at www.worldarchery.sport and www.archery.tv.

If Compound Archers want to shoot in the Olympics, start training with an Olympic Recurve!!!

Wow, 2:38 is really informative and interesting to watch. Too cool. Really makes me want to shoot Olympic recurve.

[@gomolemomokoena4265]

I will love Archery for all eternity 🎯

[@aramdecoy]

I'm new to shooting bows and trying to decide on purchasing a medium quality to great compound or recurve. Will be using it for fun and hunting. Any tips thanks. Be nice :)

Aluminum cnc/ forged al cnc, both are sturdy risers.

Eggcellent it's that you

:22 Recurve archers pick up their bows by placing the hand in the handle which is in the middle... Wow! Who knew?

[@duckenburgh6935]

It is actually wrong! In the middle of your riser is the arrow, your hand is under it, that is why your limbs need to be placed slightly different then eachother, to comprehend the asymitrical position of your Hand

@@duckenburgh6935 Only on a compound. The throat of the grip is in the middle of the bow on a recurve.

Shooting is represented in 7 disciplines and has 15 gold medals,
Archery is represented in 1 discipline for 5 gold medals.
About time to add, at least, compound to the program. And what about field and 3D? Maybe Barebow?
Looks like the ISSF is doing a far better job than WA does.

[@GrimsleyAllyn21]

Field and 3D would be very interesting

[@MisSorryforthespam]

I would love to see barebow bow and mounted archary added.

Glad to see famous people like Dwight Schrute to represent this amazing sport.

Trigers, pins, releases.... Just give them traditional longbows to shoot targets!

Now I don’t want to sound like an elitist, but don’t these crazy modern bows take a big part of the human element out of it? I’m not crazy about the thing that assists now draw length

[@blizzbee]

You should go try to shoot well with it and experience the results by yourself.
