All 10s at 20 yards on a 40cm target during the last end of my round. Think I'm starting to get the hang of my compound!

Happy St. Crispin's Day!

Battle of Agincourt From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Part of the Hundred Years' War Date 25 October 1415 (Saint Crispin's Day) Location Azincourt, County of Saint-Pol (now Pas-de-Calais) Result English victory The Battle of Agincourt French: Azincourt was an English victory in the Hundred Years' War. It took place on 25 October 1415 (Saint Crispin's Day) near Azincourt, in northern France.[b] The unexpected English victory against the numerically superior French army boosted English morale and prestige, crippled France and started a new period of English dominance in the war. After several decades of relative peace, the English had resumed the war in 1415 amid the failure of negotiations with the French. In the ensuing campaign, many soldiers died from disease, and the English numbers dwindled; they tried to withdraw to English-held Calais but found their path blocked by a considerably larger French army. Despite the numerical disadvantage, the ba

New Archers: What information do you need to know, and how do you find it?

One thing that I love about this community compared to other online archery forums is that it's got a good mix of experience. It's also where a lot of new archers seem to come for advice when starting out. That's great! However, it can be frustrating to give good advice without the correct information. Every body is different, and so every archer's setup and starting point is going to be a little different too. Eye dominance: For any shooting sport, it's important to know which eye is dominant because that's the eye that you will naturally aim with. There are several different tests that you can do, but the one that I've found to be most simple is to hold your hands up with your fingers and thumbs extended and overlap them so that they make a triangle. Look at an object in the distance through that triangle. Then you can either close each eye (one at a time) or bring your hands back to your face while continuing to look at the object. The eye that keeps

I just discovered wearing a cloth mask while shooting eliminates the need to band-aid or tape my nose (Barebow shooting using string-walking).

I haven't gone to an indoor shooting competition since Feb 2020 and I skipped the 2021 indoor season even though I was vaccinated (Part of the Pfizer vaccine study) back in October 2020. I very badly want to do the indoor season this year (OAA and NFAA Indoor nationals), but now that COVID cases are back up, that makes things a little uncertain. If I do end up going to the next indoor competitions coming up this winter, I wanted to make sure I could adjust to shooting with a mask. To my surprise, I found that a mask has a HUGE benefit to my shooting because I no longer have to tape up or band-aid my nose. If you don't know what I mean, youtube a John Demmer III shoot. I do the same thing he does - protects his nose with a covering. A few barebow shooters just lightly scrape a part of their face (usually the nose) and after about 10-20 arrows, it will literally start to bleed because of the cumulative friction. Sometimes it's the nock and usually it's the string. Wearin
