Nice little set-up. I'm not able to practice at home at the moment but if you can do it, maybe I can too. Thanks for sharing 🙏 I think it's the little things like this, that nobody sees, the solo practice and prep that is important to share. To inspire and help people understand what's actually involved in the journey.
Thank you for your comment!🙏🏻Of course, I have no doubt that you’ll be able to come up with a nice little indoor-practicing corner, especially with your level of enthusiasm which I always find exemplary🫡 As a small-niche community, I think it is important that we inspire and encourage one another to keep the fire going🔥 Have a great evening, and I hope to see more of your clips, preferably soon!
Tanks. My wife got me this beauty two weeks ago. We also got a Gromit butter dish, but I could not possibly find an ample excuse to include that in this clip. Maybe next time I might as well include a bit where I take a sip of tea from my trusty Gromit mug, followed by me taking a bite off a buttered toast - and get this, show the butter dish in split second. Anyhow, thanks for the comment.
Definitely one of my new favorite channels. Keep the momentum going my friend! I would love to set up an indoor practice range but my girlfriend has been against it from the start. It doesn't help that archery freaks our dog out... I really like your bow decoration and thier DIYs. So cool!
Haha thank you for your visit, and your encouraging comment that I certainly don’t deserve!🫡🔥 Ah yes, my wife is almost always supportive of my projects, but I do think that she would have been opposed to it if we had pet as well. No matter, you could still keep up the momentum in the course or on the range! Again, thank you so much and I wish you a very pleasant evening🙏🏻
There's often "smart people" in comments ready to tell anyone they are doing things wrong. Shame. Practice is the way to improvement. Great timing by the way I just put one up regarding working on my Manchu draw.
Thank you for your comment! Haha yeah, I mean I’m all up for constructive criticism, which is mostly how I find ways to improve, but just calling it ‘eye sore’ without much elaboration is just a shame. I just found your channel and after your video on Yarha, I immediately hit the subscribe button! Let’s keep it going, as the archers of YT🔥 Thank you again, and I wish you a fantastic day!
Hi Minty, How are you doing? I assume this is your new house? Great to see you (still) practising, that's the important thing. Technique is actually pretty good, primary thing I noticed is some collapse (of the draw hand) just before release, if you focus on making the draw feel like you are continuously pulling with your draw hand (while pushing with your bow hand) I'm sure your arrow flight will improve. I try to focus on pulling my draw arm elbow back, back, back and keep the feeling of trying to keep pulling it back even when my draw is maxed out, that helps me keep back tension. How is the horn bow doing? Was my advice of any use? Would love to talk more to you if you have the time. Best regards, Louis Pastoors
Hey Louis, I hope you’re doing better. Yes, indeed! We moved here at around mid April, and I have to say that we feel much better now. Both my wife and I have been focusing more on our work this year, but I think I can indeed spare some time for practice. Thank you! And yes, I do agree with your observation, which is why I captured the motion in slow-mo as well. I suppose this should be my next homework! As per the hornbow, I think I finally got the gist - Applying the same principle, I tied the bow tightly on the bow case, and placed some books under one limb so that it’d bend the other way. But the problem was that the material I used to tied the bow was not strong enough to fix it on its place. So I got myself some ratchet straps, and did the same - and voila, it showed some visual result within one day! So I put it back, and am waiting for a couple more days to (almost) completely remove the twist. I’m sorry for my lack of responsiveness, I’ll try to make as much time as possible! I’ll come back with a video with the hornbow next week. Best, Minty
I 100% support indoor practice.
And thank you for your support🙏🏻 I don’t really see how I can ‘not forget’ how to shoot properly if I don’t practice indoors

Cool mug bro

I need to do this, thanks for the inspiration 🙏

집에서도 얼마든지 연습할 수 있네요. 정말 좋은 생각입니다. 집도 예뻐요.
물론이죠! 궁술은 항시 연습하지 않으면 금방 녹슬기 때문에 이런 조치를 취했습니다.
