Yeah no kidding, once you realize how far away they are from the target the skill really becomes apparent. A shame that archery is kind of a forgotten sport for most.
It’s all very good and all, and not going to take away from it at all. The wind adjustment takes some getting used to But... in the end, it’s a bit... watered down Innit I’m just saying, there used to be a time where this level of ‘Archery’ would get you killed because you took too long and you most certainly wouldn’t be shooting at a stationary target. Archers used to be able to unleash 4-6 arrows in a matter of seconds, all deadly, all hitting their targets unless impeded, by shield etc. they could place an arrow through the links of chainmail and the smallest exposed areas. I respect the accuracy, but.. I also have to question some technique here, they leave their arms in full lock for far too long after they’ve reached Max draw. Now, they’re not pulling massive draw weight by any means, but it can still have an effect, tiring muscles will twitch, spasm, this alone can throw the shot off. The stationary targets just... they shouldn’t even need to sight the Board, it’ll always be in the same spot, they should be experienced enough to know the distance well enough to draw, adjust and shoot in the space of a 1-1.5 seconds. For al the above reasons, Clay Shooting, (not as much skill needed to wield a shotgun vs a Bow) but the dynamics of the sport, makes it A) more difficult B) better to watch. Mama always said “don’t practise till you get it right, practise till you don’t get it wrong”
Once you know where to aim, hitting the actual board is like clockwork. From that distance they aren’t even aiming at the board,. Let’s say an inch higher than the target and just above the red cup in the far distance will hit the board every time, but aiming directly at the rim of that cup will hit the 10. They know the rim of that cup is where the bullseye is but being just even a millimeter off won’t score you a gold medal
but in this case: its been Bradys dream/goal to win a solo medal in archery. He has team gold (his tattoo from london 2012) and a bunch of other championship golds. But to achieve a solo medal at the olympics... inspiring
I know, like they can't even shoot straight. The target is so far away that they must shoot with an angle up and I have no idea how they can achieve such precise and accurate shots. They must practice so hard and be very diligent. Even though Mr. Ku won very honourably, both are incredible archers indeed. By the way, it's nice to see ARMYs in random places like here. Love you!! :D
Agreed! I too do archery (still a kid though so I shoot from about 16 meters). These guys a beyond impressive. Archery is one of those sports it's hard to he naturally good at, so much goes into where the arrow lands (position, technique, strength, aim and so much more) xD
the issue is olympic sports archery is alot from survival field archery. Plus, the hunger games is more about the ability to not die than how to shoot accurately so maybe this statement is a bit exaggerated...
@@ghnna but for survival, a big part of it is knowing how to get food and defend yourself, so, obviously if you know how to shoot with a bow and arrow accurately, you have a good chance of surviving

@@yoonjeongsoo9378 I would agree the first set of comments are just stating facts. I also understand it's not easy to commentate live.

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's because of his race.
You know, Korean archers commonly say that winning the selection test for Korean national team is much harder than winning gold medals in the Olympic Games.
and just like basketball is more competitive in USA than in olympics. There are a lot of sports varying countries specialize in to an extent where the rest of the world simply can't compete.
I can never understand why they seldom (or never) show the amazing ballistic (curved) trajectory of the arrow. It is awesome and inspiring. This coverage is unfair to this sport. You watch this and you tihnk they shoot straight at a target in front of them. Neither are true.
@@kon4251 Used to shoot when I was younger, arrows are never that fast (unless we're talking short hunting bows with ridiculous amounts of force) and you can easily see the arrow flying. The easiest way is just look at the target from the shooter perspective, you'll be able to see the arch, or from a 45 degrees from the shooter, then you can see the whole shot with easy!
I feel like you can easily calculate the trajectory. They have real time tracking of the wind speed and direction. They can use that data along with the power of the bowstring to estimate the trajectory. It doesnt have to be perfect. Just enough to make it work visually.
A korean man has only won the singles twice in the history of the world. So either korean male archers are completely oblivious or you just might be making that up.
Everyone’s all gangsta until they meet Korea in archery: - Individual women: won all the gold medals since 1984 except in 2008; most years taking at least 2/3 of the medals (sometimes all 3/3 medals lol) - Team women: never lost 1st place since the start of the event in 1988 - Individual men: won the last 2 gold medals - Team men: won 5 gold, 1 silver, 1 gold out of 8 events since 1988 Proof that Korea has some archer blood in their DNA lol
coed team just won gold earlier only a few hours after u posted your comment there’s this inside joke between Koreans where they learned all this control for their bows from using chopsticks from a young age… lol

simple answer is they dont need to see the target. just align your sights with the center of the target. with consistent body form, your arrows will land on where you aimed your sights at.

I wish the old species of human survived when same gender shared same strength oh boy that world would be soooo much better....
After watching so many archery battles in the Olympics. I noticed the final shot for the gold medal that requires, in this case, an 8 or higher 12:55, they ACTUALLY go for the 8 or whatever number is necessary to just win instead of going near the bullseye. That's what you call swaggy skills 👏
It’s not unbelievably far bc I’d it was more to the shooters it would all just be tens. The wind needs to take effect or else they will only lose by one point and that’s no fun ofc.
Congratulation Ku (Korea) for your Gold medal shoot !!! it was epic game you delivered to the world. We really enjoyed !!! Again, thank you and God bless more and more in the future !!!
But to be a gold medalist you need to be a national player first, which means it is harder to be a gold medalist. It is, however, easier to be a gold medalist if you have been selected as a national player.
There is so much potential to make this awesome on TV. Like info on exit velocity and launch angle would be cool and more downrange shots gives a better perspective on the distance and the context of how tiny these targets are.
All of these people who haven't competed at the upper levels in Archery saying "what is the coach even for?" 1) Archery is very much a mentally exhaustive sport in absolute focus, conditioning, form and confidence, taking years to master - a good coach can and knows how to cater to these demands of an archer in the midst of a competition; 2) There are very subtle techniques in a perfect form for each archer - a good coach can identify and provide feedback to the archer (when to do so, refer to point 1); 3) Every elite archer knows their equipment, but not every archer knows how to fix their equipment in the moment, assess damage (if any) - a good coach can provide this oversight; and 4) Psychologically, having that one person in your corner, no matter what, it helps to face against a crowd or desperate times. Hopefully some will find this useful, instead of hating on archery coaches and (what feels to me) making a mockery of one the greatest and underrated sports
Thanks mate for this knowledge Can you please tell me why Ku didn't won in the third set only?? He had a 10 shot...i m really confused now! Do rescue 😄
Windy blower it is because compared to recurve which requires practice in calculation of angles, compound is almost like aim and fire.. but when it comes to archery competitions, I guess they're even because compound targets are much smaller. Still, it's more satisfying for me to watch recurve shooting. It feels more natural?
When you really think about this, their accuracy is almost supernatural. No telescopic sight. Over 200 ft to the target. 4M per sec wind!
But sadly archers never got the respect, especially from casual viewers
Yeah no kidding, once you realize how far away they are from the target the skill really becomes apparent. A shame that archery is kind of a forgotten sport for most.

70 metres, contrast that with new archers, often missing the target from 10 metres when they begin (can't say I haven't done that too).
I can barely hit the target from 10 meters

Is that fucken 70m!!!
I was thinking the same, incredible!
@Balint Honavi
I know amazing considering the wind they have to account for seen at 0:01
I think I'm going good shooting at 80Ft in my back yard. That's not even half the distance of Olympic Archery.
Do they hit at an angle or do they stand at a uniformly high platform to account for the drop due to gravity?

(I) Hit 9
(II) Hit 10

Love from india 🇮🇳🇮🇳
But today's india kick out korea from the medal race athu das is op
@@Goku-xr2rw So happy to see Atanu Das Ji performance 🇮🇳🇮🇳🏹🏹🏹
Thx
@@Goku-xr2rw - Where is "Athu Das" Olympic medal? You Indians cannot ever give respect to others without insulting. 😂🤡
The coach for J dis was Korean but what happened?
Valladont's look at the medal ceremony almost made me cry
I wanna know why Korean are so so good in achery... They got all 6 gold medals... Just wow wow wow. Congrate KR
They just have really good coaches and really dedicated shooters
simple .. they sleep with their bows and arrows .. even their dreams are how to aim and make perfect scores .. lol
Korea used bow as their main weapon for a long time. (just like katana of Japan and spear of China)
Theres an old saying I remember reading somewhere. China spears, Japan Swords, Korea bow.
Palaemon124 Not necessarily Japan has it's own archery style that the samurai used
The Korean archers say the qualification to be an Olympian is much harder than winning a gold medal in an actual Olympic.
What will u say about China 😂 1.3 billion people
@@anirudh2704 1.4 billion*.

Nose que dice pero miente

I like that you can have no idea about the sport, but get hella excited when they hit the center piece!
Koreans dominate archery like Jamaicans sprints.
Like koreans esports

Diamond_RKR bra7-1l dominating? Lol
Ivan A Bruh.. Lol im bandwagoning germany this world cup xD
After watching so many archery battles in the Olympics. I noticed the final shot for the gold medal that requires, in this case, an 8 or higher 12:55, they ACTUALLY go for the 8 or whatever number is necessary to just win instead of going near the bullseye. That's what you call swaggy skills 👏
As an archer, you would never do that
he actually needed 7+ since he only needs a tie set to win but i will still aim for 10 of course
7:05 WHAT?! THE DISTANCE?!
Ikr i reacted same
It’s 70meters
It’s not unbelievably far bc I’d it was more to the shooters it would all just be tens. The wind needs to take effect or else they will only lose by one point and that’s no fun ofc.
@@Sonny2299 do they show the wind to the archers or they have to figure it all out themselves?
@@babyfreezer I’m not sure.
The Australian commentator desperately wanted French to win.
His accent is kiwi, not aussie
Lol I noticed that
He's a Kiwi mate, not an Aussie
I don't think so, just wanted a close match and to create some drama.
Kiwi you mean
I like the announcers enthusiastic score announcing. TTTEEEEENNNNN!!!!!!!!!
Brighton Young wii sports resort
@momentinpassing The thing sticking out is a balance to help with arrow flight and stability in case you still don’t know. xD
I think they Aussies
Its great that they are international commentators. One guy in Zimbabwe lost his job when he was enthusiastic when the rival team scored a goal!
You should check out Darts players and callers when they score a maximum of 180!
2:17 that scared me so much. i was so concentrated on the video that it felt like the arrow was actually gonna shoot me
The scariest thing about archery are the dementors
I guess valladidn't...
up with you

5:30 "Eight. What the f-?!"
he was done😂😂
He only needed a 7 to win, so he did that on purpose. The balls.

Just to keep the comments alive, I'd like to say I just got into archery and it's amazing to see how far a human can take it!
It's unfortunate there aren't videos of Korean archery which is 145 meters, twice Olympic distance.

He is a doctor?
@@maybeoneday2879 only the men of culture can understand this comment.
Jeesh. Those bows look like they're equipped with radar.
Lmao they're stabilizers but trueeeeee I thought they were bipods so you could shoot with it resting on something like those 50 cal snipers
Never watched archery in my life. Yet, here i was cheering for the korean anyway and googling how set points work.
Nice broadcast!
Ya Korea trains a lot for archery my uncle trains in Korea. Btw I'm Korean. Korea is weirdly good at a archery

In Korea, archery is known as a "good son" olympic sport. That's how they call it 🤣
@Lucid Dream They're expected to bring in Gold medals
medal(gold) garanteed sport i could say
야 효잨ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 굿 썬이 뭐지? 이랬잖아요 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Silver is the worst in these type of 'Gold Medal Matches' because you don't win Silver, you LOST the Gold. No glory
At least you have a medal right? Not a lot of people can say they have won an Olympic medal
If you ain’t first your last

3rd is participation thropy

Asian said that winning in Asia more difficult than competing in Olympic...
Congratulation Ku (Korea) for your Gold medal shoot !!! it was epic game you delivered to the world. We really enjoyed !!! Again, thank you and God bless more and more in the future !!!
In korea Archery, To be a national player is harder than to be a gold medalist in Olympic.
어휴 씨 국뽕 드링킹 어질어질하네 진짜
But to be a gold medalist you need to be a national player first, which means it is harder to be a gold medalist. It is, however, easier to be a gold medalist if you have been selected as a national player.
That's true haha. 전국체전에서 10점 다맞았는데 엑스텐개수로 순위매긴적도있었음
적당히좀 해라 국뽕 어지간히좀 ㅆㅂ
웃으라고 하는말인데 진지한애들 많네ㅋㅋㅋ
Koreans dominate archery like Koreans dominate ESports.
Tbh koreans only dominates league and sc2.
now overwatch too
Korea dominates the recurve not the compound.
Mariz Juhara lol korean dont play dead games like dota or cs go
and tekken
Good to see Johnny Sins Coaching now
😅😂🤣
the funniest comment i’ve ever seen 😭
gold 😂
There is so much potential to make this awesome on TV. Like info on exit velocity and launch angle would be cool and more downrange shots gives a better perspective on the distance and the context of how tiny these targets are.
All of these people who haven't competed at the upper levels in Archery saying "what is the coach even for?"
1) Archery is very much a mentally exhaustive sport in absolute focus, conditioning, form and confidence, taking years to master - a good coach can and knows how to cater to these demands of an archer in the midst of a competition;
2) There are very subtle techniques in a perfect form for each archer - a good coach can identify and provide feedback to the archer (when to do so, refer to point 1);
3) Every elite archer knows their equipment, but not every archer knows how to fix their equipment in the moment, assess damage (if any) - a good coach can provide this oversight; and
4) Psychologically, having that one person in your corner, no matter what, it helps to face against a crowd or desperate times.
Hopefully some will find this useful, instead of hating on archery coaches and (what feels to me) making a mockery of one the greatest and underrated sports
Thanks mate for this knowledge
Can you please tell me why Ku didn't won in the third set only?? He had a 10 shot...i m really confused now! Do rescue 😄
so happy to see so many non archers liking and watching this video. here's to more growth and popularity for the sport!!
I can't even get 9's from 5 meters
I use a recurve and I must say it is so much easier than a compound.
Jay Pierce a compound is designed to be much easier to shoot than a recurve
Windy blower it is because compared to recurve which requires practice in calculation of angles, compound is almost like aim and fire.. but when it comes to archery competitions, I guess they're even because compound targets are much smaller.
Still, it's more satisfying for me to watch recurve shooting. It feels more natural?
Cadi Levox agreed
I can even miss it

개간지. 한국 여자들이 양궁 금메달 따는건 매번 봐서 다 알지만, 한국 남자가 양궁 금메달 따는건 비교적 흔치 않아서 외국인이 보건 한국인이 보건 신기하지. 그리고 구본찬 선수가 간지나게 이겼으니.
the composure of a professional under pressure is excellent for both archers.
