Addressing the "Comanche Archery" in the new Predator 5 (Prey) trailer. Is it good?

- Hello, my name is Pan Saltz Caballeratos. As the new trailer of the upcoming movie "Prey" (Predator 5) came out, many people from the archery community reacted to the archery depicted in there. My friend Miko_Archer convinced me to address the matter and give our contribution about the Native American archery styles. He already uploaded his video in his channel and you can watch it by clicking on the link below :
• Predator prey, хищник ...
In this video, I am making a traditional bow and arrows, as I was taught by my father that was confirmed later in life by other people as well. By recreating such a bow and studying the traditional ways of shooting, I am able to recreate the lost art of fast and accurate archery by the Indigenous nations all across the Turtle Island continent (America). The king of fast archery Lars Andersen made a video about the Comanche archery. People misunderstood and thought that ONLY the Comanche nation was capable of these skills, when in fact, this art was well spread among all tribes. In the video I am briefly explaining some factors on why only the Comanche are credited with such skill. They were the last frontier, they had enough time to know what these invaders wanted from them and they got access to horses. The tank, the super weapon of the era. They were ready, they were prepared and they were determined to defend themselves in ways that other tribes didn't have the chance. Only them being credited with such skills is a misconception and the art should simply be known as "Native American short bow archery". You can watch Lars' video by clicking on the link below :
• Lars Andersen: Recreat...
Warning, this is just ONE of the styles and bows used by the tribes. I do not claim that my way is the only way nor do I say that this bow was the only type of bow made. But what I am saying is that THIS bow was the most common and well spread. It's way of being used and created reveals the mentality of the unified Amerindian civilization. You make extra steps to keep trees alive, so you take as little as possible from them. You get to create a bow that can shoot anything, even nockless arrows made on the spot by random sticks. Even if not the best wood is available, you still get to make a functional bow, as the technique used to shoot won't break it. As many tribes entered into alliances with European factions, they started being treated as primitive so their traditional weapons were replaced with firearms and metal. Such archery skills takes a lot of practice and if they are abandoned even for a little bit, distance is made and the art gets forgotten. The great warriors who held these skills wouldn't survive to teach their arts to the new generations. The mentality of a warrior is indomitable so it's only natural that those people held their ground to the bitter end. And their stories survive as legends about how good they were. What I am actually doing in this video is that I recreate these skills to prove them real. I am definitely not the BEST but my contribution is good enough to prove some points. There are many videos out there analyzing this historical archery and they did a lot of hard work to make them. So it's better if you watch their videos and get well informed about the subject. The following link shows Join Willie Pekah explain this traditional art :
• Native Cultural Arts: ...
A very professional, educated and talented archer gives more historical records in his videos . His channel is called "ryddragyn". Click on the links below to watch and learn :

What the new trailer shows keeps getting proven by everyone as completely impractical and not accurate to the slightest. With such a big budget they could do the slightest research and promote something real, something authentic. Instead of "de powah of de wahman wins it all". I think they got confused by the Ishi shooting style. But again, the Ishi style in practice and theory looks nothing alike. These following videos shed light on this style and are very informative. Click on the links to watch them :

The only difference with what these talented archers showed in their videos compared to what I do is that I manage to use NOCKLESS arrows. So my conclusion is that this new movie lost a great opportunity to promote real skills and real history. But of course, I guess it's just a movie. Still, they give US the opportunity to make videos like this. So, cheers and enjoy.

Notes : This is the last video I am trying to use an "international accent" to be understood easily by as many ears as possible in the world. I pretty much forgot how to really do it XD . Talking like my normal self helps me make videos faster, so ... I'll be normal sounding from now on XD . Enjoy the documentary though!
Literally changed my whole perspective on archery, thank you
Thank YOU! At your service 😃
Remarkable speed and accuracy.
Thank you very much!
i have a "friend" who constantly criticizes me for not doing a full draw and not having an anchor point, i tell her i'm practicing combat archery. she says i still need to slow down and aim better, but as Pan says, " even if you manage to hit your target with your rapid fire just once, its still a success, thats the point of it," Thank you Pans for this truly instructional video
It's funny how people are stuck on following what others teach. They follow gurus instead of actually experimenting and evolving these arts. I always say something more. "I am not the one who reads the books you follow, I am the one who WRITES the books you follow". She is stuck in what she follows, but you my friend, you are following YOU and you are evolving the art to fit you. Keep strong!
@@PanSaltzCaballeratos thank you, i will
You can tell your friend that if there is a real fight, the enemy will not stand still and let her take aim.
Combat is not the competitive competition, if someone let an Olympic pistol shooting champion and a special forces soldier in a narrow space with the pistol to shooting each other at the same time , who will survive?
@@allanquatermain777 agreed, i shoot two targets when rapid firing, 10 yd and 20 yd. that way i learn to get better acquisition and it makes it more realistic, no one will come at even spaces. they will be varied distances
Haven't even watched the video yet, but Pan gets a 👍🏼!
Hehehe thank you Bro! You can find me on facebook if you haven't already. Type the same name as seen in the name of my channel (without Military Archery).
Amazing skills and knowledge!
Thank you so much my dear Heidi!! ❤ ❤
That 3/4 draw technique is really fantastic. The key to instinctive archery is practice, practice, practice...
I couldn't agree more! ;) . Also, if you have a real "purpose", THEN your instinct is awakened. In my case for example, because of the military service, I trained with the genuine belief that this archery can be used for combat. So my goal was realistic while training. That gave my instinct let's say enough "fuel".
I think that the tribes were often very different unless they overlapped in environment. While I agree with unification in modern times, to gain power, it shouldn't be done by ignoring history or the many complex cultures that existed. It was Berkeley and Hollywood that made it seem like all tribes were the same...and lumping different tribes in the same reservations. This was the major reason for the destruction of cultural identity.
I did appreciate your video. Thanks for sharing your insights!
Thank you my friend for your comment!
I use a similar style of archery passed down in the family for rapid shots. Have always been told it’s for when an opponent is further than a spears length away to how far an axe or knife can be thrown. Only time for pulling all the way back is for longer distances and more powerful shots to pierce heavily armoured opponents or shields with techniques slightly differing depending on the draw weight of the bow.
Might just be something similar to wives tales for it’s point of distance and application, thought it might be an interesting read.
Please forgive my grammar.
You fully understand how this technique works :D . Glad to have you here my friend!
Thank you for this analysis my friend! I agree with you and as a traditional archer it bothered me a little- still a great movie and Amber Midthunder was awesome!
Thank you for your feedback my friend! Yes, the movie was fine indeed. It's not like the archery part was the main focus. Just a minor detail that can be easily missed for the plot's sake.
Thanks for rekindling my faith in branch bows, and natural shooting. Peace bro.
You are welcome my friend! There is always something more to be had about these bows. hehehe.
You're the only one ive seen do the homework and appreciate our archery ways. Bravo sir! ✊🏾
Thank you very much for your kind words sir!
Hope you are doing well Pan! Your videos always pop up in my continued search for more knowledge on traditional native archery. I love how you show from a Navajo perspective.
Good to see you Brother! It's my tiny contribution in honor of one of the most ancient and richest nations :D
Hello my friend how you keeping
Very good video
Great skills ..... and a flute player. 👌👍 Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
Awesome!!! Great video. I'm going to try this style very soon... So fast!
Thank you Ronnie! Have fun!
You've done a great job with this research on native American culture and the archery they used. You are an inspiration. Greetings from Norway.
Thank you very much my friend! Greetings!
thank you for your time and this video! awesome to learn and watch. Just started getting into archery. love it.
Best sport you could ever stumble upon hehehe. Have lots and lots of fun! And thank you my friend!
awesome shooting man keep practice. it is our belief that what was lost should be pass on and researched. for we never know what the future holds. and these are essential skills, and also fun
Thank you very much! True words.
this man is an absolute unit, more scared off him then the bow
I literally have to nerf me down while interacting with the world around me XD . I'm aware that I am kinda scary and I am trying to act "sweeter" LOL XD
Great video, and tons of information in it. Thank you so much.
Thank you Bro!
Yea! New video and new bow! Awesome!
greetings sir and greetings to all.a cup of tea and watching your video made my day.i learned alot.i just finished 3 comanche bows and needed some more explanation the best way to shoot them.thank you for sharing your research and🙂 knowledge.
I deeply appreciate your comment my friend! Good to have you here and thank you!

You were correct! Thank you for recommending this fantastic content.
Miguel! Thank you so much for your comment!! You are an awesome archer. I watch everything you make!
dude, that 00:09:00 is impressive af, that's grip strength to the max
No wonder I chose it as my favorite way of handling it :D
Good shot Pan Brother on using dead wood, not living wood. You are spreading true accurate teaching to preserve Mother. It is waste' (good)
Hoka He
Awesome video! Damn fine shooting Pan!!! Thanks for posting.
Thank you very much my friend!
Good morning Pan. I am new to your channel, and watching this video really through me. I could not connect your accent with your tribe! Ha, laugh's on me. I'm glad I read your post about your "international ears". I highly value your skills and knowledge, thank you for sharing. By the way, I've recently started making arrows in a Comanche and Apache style. After watching your video today I am more confident to make a short bow. Thank you for your teaching!
Hello my friend! Thank you very much! Oh trust me... if you make or get such a bow... you are gonna have lots and lots of fun! ;)
Fantastic video. Loved the history and explanations. Beautiful music. Really cool technique. What is the poundage you use with a pinch draw? You have a new subscriber. 🙏🏼😎🏹
Welcome my friend and thank you! At full draw this bow can reach up to 35lbs.
this video fills me, thank you, that rifle is incredibly beautiful
Thank you! The rifle is handmade ;)
Nice bow and arrows. Great explanation . to be honest I think there were right handed archers and left handed archers. If you read about some of the attacks on wagon trains in the plains they'd circle around on the horses .another group would circle around the opposite way . this was to confuse the defenders. To ride clockwise and shoot you'd have to be left handed , counter clock wise right handed. Or be able to shoot left or right.
Yes. I agree. When making formations, tactical skills can be used. To synchronize with the others in an orderly fashion. So even if they weren't going to use any rapid shooting, they would still be able to use techniques from the right side. I'll keep experimenting to see what skills can be revived like this.
Great job.
Thank you sir!
I love this video, from the welcoming Navajo, Spanish, and English intro to the rich knowledge you've passed down to anyone with the curiosity or the interest of learning
Thank you very much my friend!
Quality video! Definitely earned a new subscriber!
Thank you so much my friend!!
Thank you for your perspective, very well done
Thank you very much!
A good video, Pan. A good point about using what you can rather than an entire tree. My other name is Kiowa Lee.
I'm glad to have you here my friend and thank you!
Incredible video, instant subscribtion!
Thank you very much! Welcome !
I watched the movie on Hulu and it's a good movie. I'd recommend it
AWESOME! Thank you!
great video!
Thank you very much Pister Mresident!
Love the short bow you made. Good shooting too !!
Thank you! :D
Excellent video mate. Hoka Hey it is the day after Custers death and u bring us a good video 📹
Hehehe exactly! He won't be missed. Hoka Hey! Thank you!
awesome work Brother many Thanks for sharing 😊.
Thank you very much! It's a pleasure.
This was pure excellence! Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Hi pan. Nice explination and awesome bow. As for bows made from a branch or very skinny sapling. Its alot easier making a bow like this than to cut a huge tree down, split it, and work that into a bow. Most of my bows are made from small saplings or branches.
Hellooo! Thank you! Always glad to talk to people with the same interests. And these are VERY USEFUL interests right now. I am also using a special bamboo bundle-bow recipe. I have even made a complete crafting tutorial about it. There are so many approaches when it comes to a functioning bow.
@PanSaltzCaballeratos yes I've seen your videos using those bundle bows. They are great bows. In a survival situation it's a quick bow to make.
Thank you. I enjoy Comanche archery videos more than you can realize, so this feels awesome to learn .
Thank you my friend! Then I'll make sure that more of this will keep coming 😄
Insane amount of content. I really appreciate, thx
Thank you very much!!
what great skill and speed, really inspired by this!
Thank you so much my friend!
The Comanche used a short bow because they could fire the bow from different positions on horseback . A longer bow would not work. The Comanche nation was the most feared and most accomplished warriors of any nation.
This is similar to the Plains Cree who inhabit the Canadian Prairies. They are one of the largest tribes here, and the horse was very important to their culture like it was for The Comanche.
Hey man..if l was making a movie. I'd be asking you to star in it... imagine half a dozen warriors coming through a camp shooting like you...but because they did it from early childhood..taught by seasoned warriors..and constantly competing with friends their level of skill would be almost unbelievable to us....
Thank you very much my friend! Actually... soon I'm gonna surprise you about such a movie . The first installment is almost finished hehehe. Indeed we can only imagine how good they must had been back then.
@@PanSaltzCaballeratos looking forward to seeing the movie.. regards Amigo
I wouldn't be surprised if these types of skills were not lost. Many planes tribes still have there secret war societies and bow hunting has been practiced on reservations since they were formed. Not only that, they have preserved the knowledge of horses and how they rode them back in the day. The other artistic crafts have been preserved.
You are correct ;) . Many are training in a military fashion too but shhhh :p "you didn't hear that from me :p "|
Good job brother!!
Thank you very much Brother!
101st commenter and new subscriber here: Thanks for an outstanding and pragmatic vid! I've often thought that taking more than a day to make a bow would be expensive in a stone aged society.
Thank you my friend! I understand very well your point. You understand deeply the essence of a realistic survival skill.
Oh wow, beautiful job making those bow and arrows, they look stunning. That's so funny though, just a few days ago I was wondering if you are gonna make a wooden bow like the one you've just made in this video and yea boom here we are.
Hehehe that's the good thing about me. You don't even need to comment any requests. You think them and like a good mentalist (I mean shaman) I deliver :p
@@PanSaltzCaballeratos hahaha yo no surprises there, all minds are connected aye straight up. Straight up though the technique you showed in this video was insane dude, im so keen on more videos of you legit just shooting with that technique, was diiissguussttinnggg. Awesome man.
Also what you were saying about purpose bro, how it can be used as fuel. The price of everything in my country (New Zealand) has gone up so much so we have to do our own hunting for meat, leather, tendons etc. The government is also doing really corrupt stuff as well, so me, my brother, and my friend are studying a lot of archery & have been working on our own bows so these sorts of videos are very valuable to us because it's gonna help us to provide for our family & defend ourselves. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, eternally grateful.
I think the kinzhalnaya dagger draw is an effective way of shooting. I don't know if it was actually used by the Comanche but I've seen older paintings where it may have been used in extreme close range buffalo hunting. (dawing the arrow to the sternum and holding on to a horse with no stirrups...) Some of the archers on RUclips hate that "corrupt draw" because it doesn't it doesn't anchor for aiming. They fail to recognize that it is a completely instinctive way of shooting and the Comanche lived their entire lives hunting. They used what they had to the best of their abilities. I also found this link to the Scythian draw and that may be the way the dagger draw was developed. I think it would be a great way to shoot with your weak hand if for some reason you can't use your strong hand to knock the arrow. Back in the day if they couldn't hunt they couldn't eat. Anyway, check this video out: ruclips.net/video/yy1YbMJSNSc/видео.html
I can actually confirm your thoughts by a simple explanation. This type of draw is CLEARLY for horseback. As it helps the archer aim towards the back side. This handling realigns the "sights" perfectly with the target and gives more stability. So... what was the ONE thing that the Comanche used to move forward and progress? Yep... HORSES! Thinking that old warriors would use ONLY one style because "it's the Comanche style" is not realistic. Old warriors were practical and would use what helps them throw their arrow on to the target. So, the moment horses were introduced, these new styles of shooting were inevitable. This is probably what confused the consultants of the movie. My point would be that they used this style while depicting PRE-horses Comanches. Thus tossing out the MUCH more traditional, for the longest time, shooting style.
Very cool, very inspirational. I would like to combine your technique with eastern horse archery techniques.
Thank you very much my friend! I am curious to see the results! 😄
this is better then history channel i was very interested once i saw the movie
Best comment here. Thank you very much for your kind words my friend!
Very impressing.
"they use branches to preserve trees" I like it..
Thank you my friend! As things are progressing, maybe thinking this way is very relatable again. We have the knowledge and we will survive.
awesome video on the comanche archery
keep it up !
Always brother! Thank you!
Isso é magnífico...
Muito obrigado!
The bow design is interesting. Previous bows I've tried I'd be splitting a branch section of wood in half and then in another half to make a reasonable flatbow, but this idea seems like a quicker way to build a bow while using a smaller and easier to cut branch. Hopefully will try it out soon.
Good luck! You won't be disappointed.
Hermoso video donde demuestras la originalidad de la arqueria Comanche, su utilidad práctica para el combate. Es un aporte histórico de mucha importancia. Felicidades y saludos desde San Francisco de Campeche,exico.
Saludos Hermano! Siento el retraso en la respuesta. ¡Muchas gracias!
Comanche archery is the same fighting concept as the cowboy's fast draw which is to attack suddenly at close range at a very fast speed so that the enemy can't react.
Comanche archery can carry out sneak attacks, assassinations, stealth operations and guerrilla operations against the enemy like Vietnamese guerrillas, ninjas and assassins.
You can make the simplest, most practical and lethal bow at the lowest cost, kill an enemy soldier with a gun in his hand under certain environment, and then seize his gun
Hello my warrior Brother! It is exactly as you described it!
And what you say you "can" do, American insurgents will be doing in a few years when the present government tyranny by both parties becomes intolerable.
Does this style have enough power to bring down large game? sorry i dont know much about archery im new.
Bro finally!!!! Thank you for pointing that out
Thank you very much my friend!
The American short bow is the AR15 of bows. Light, small arm, compact, high rate of fire. It's a brilliant design. You can find the short bow and rapid fire relationship exists in different continents.
I always made the same comparison in my mind. I fully approve 😅
And hated by the federal government
Lived around Hopi Zuni Dineh 1976-77. Northern AZ/NM. Now near Nez Perce.I still have my great grandfathers arrow wrench. When I was five or six, he showed me where to find suckers from damaged trees for arrows. Then he passed. I’ve knapped buckets of arrowheads. That obsidian is surprisingly sharp. Ever use cactus needle tips for lightweight bird arrows? Removable/replaceable tips? For hollow reed shafts? Thanks for sharing.
Yes sir that's fast enough to keep you running 😂
I'm making my first little Comanche inspired bow . You should have seen peoples faces when I said i was going to make a bow out of this old dried cracked broken tool handle. Shovel I think and Hickory I think. Why? it will be lot less heart breaking if it breaks while I'm learning than a quality seasoned Osage Orange stave, and i can get some practice chasing a ring while I'm hunting that Osage orange stave. Old shovel handle is taking shape now though I believe I'm going see some folks change their tune here shortly. I've been watching and getting inspired you foe a while now. I'm starting to pick up a little speed myself, under your tutelage. Saying thank you is an understatement and can never say enough.
I took my time being able to read my comments. Sorry about that 😅 . Enough time has passed so I am guessing you have finished your project. I am really curious to learn about your results. Did it work?
What an adventure!
Amazing
Thank you!
I'm pretty sure you've addressed these questions on one of your other videos, but:
Average length of your arrows? Poundage on your branch bow?
Length of bow?
The only 2 things I can guess is brace height at 5 inches, and draw looks like 15-20 inches.
Arrows length : 61cm / 24 inches. Length of bow : (average) 120cm / 47 inches. Draw length : ...yes you got that right 😄 . Draw weight : 30lbs
Thanks
Fine craftsmanship and awesome archery! Have you seen my recent crossbow practice shooting video? Where I shoot at my homemade archery target in the woods! 🤠🤠🤠👍👍👍🎯🎯🎯🎯🏹🏹🏹
Thank you Bro! Yes I did. Awesome practice! ;)
@@PanSaltzCaballeratos welcome bro
Спасибо. Очень интересная техника! Я бы у вас поучился. Хочу задать вопрос- а на охоте, к примеру, без лошади, эффективность достигается быстротой стрельбы или точным выстрелом? И, в среднем, на какое расстояние надо приблизиться к зверю, к примеру, оленю? Какой силы используется лук для охоты?
Sorry for my reply in English :p . I separate hunting and war because for hunting you want to take down your target with one good shot. A 30 lbs bow CAN hunt if you use good arrow heads. Like a sharp broad head. If you hit the lungs, the animal is finished. But I would suggest a stronger bow for hunting. 50 lbs and higher. It has more certain results. The archery shown in my video works best for war. It can do more general damage as it creates wounded enemies. A wounded soldier brings havoc in the mentality of his fellow soldiers. Two more soldiers have to carry him off the battlefield, thus three people are taken out of the war with one softer shot. And it creates more prisoners for questioning. Such a bow has the same function as the 5.56 caliber firearms.
@@PanSaltzCaballeratos спасибо за ответ, почти все понял.
Where did you find the wood ?
Hey said hello my name is .......and it amazing ............I am Navajo myself
My friend everything in that movie was a bad peyote trip. The tomohak on a rope the fighting style the shooting style is a half a temp at the Saka sythian draw seen on ancient Greek pottery. This kind of draw was made popular from some Russian archerers about 11 years ago. Fast to knock but the arrow bounces around if you are in motion. Love your videos!
Thank you very much my friend! It's a pity they didn't do some research. Maybe the focus was to portray "a strong independent woman" instead of any history.
I started shooting crossbow 22" bolts with my bow and it's faster to shoot because of their open V shaped knocks
In one of my previous videos I used 22' length arrows too. But still nockless :p . I could try making wide V nocks to try other styles of archery too. Sounds like fun.
i like the simplicity of this style. what can you do when wood is scarce. what is the effective range and penetration?
Thank you! It is good for up to 80 yards. It can get better with lighter arrows. About penetration... hmmm it is up to the arrowhead and what type of target you are hitting. Maybe I can do some ballistic jell + covers (armor) tests in future videos.

Great video, do you make and sell these bows??
Thank you! Yep. I have an entire online shop coming up soon. But you could also look into my bamboo recipe. A crafting tutorial for complete beginners.
@PanSaltzCablleratos Are there anything special about the arrows? are they shorter length than average?
Well... to list a few special things about them : they don't have a V shaped nock on their back. It is completely flat. The fletching is a double helix, and the length can vary from arrow to arrow if you use this style of shooting. So that last part could be considered special. You already have a short draw so the length doesn't have to be fixed.
Man your good.
Thank you!
I love watching your videos and learning more about the history and what not how long have you been using native american archery??
Thank you very much! Since childhood.

Nice video, but in the movie Prey it seems they draw differently. The drawing hand is “up side down”? (in the movie)
Well done my friend. Good reasoning as well...I truly enjoyed the video. Movies are, for the huge part, a BIG lie...
Thank you very much my friend! More and more, people are educating themselves and the demand for historical realism rises. I bet there will be a new movie standards revolution. Only those who do it right will become successful.
Πολυ ωραιο βιντεο!!❤
Σ'ευχαριστώ πολύ!
How long is the arrow? It must be shorter than the common arrows right (shorter than 30 inch perhaps)?
With this style of shooting, yeah it can be. In fact, it makes it possible to have any length of arrows in the same batch. You can shoot inconsistent lengths with no issue.
I like it .
Thank you very much :)
Friend, how are you? Greetings from Colombia, friend, good bow, what wood is the bow made of? I really liked the bow.

Can you suggest where to buy the bow? And what is the suitable length of the arrow for thia bow, i thought it would be shorter than the common one (maybe 28 inch i guess)
I have some crafting tutorials uploaded for both bows and arrows. But also, I am working on making an online shop. But it is taking some time.
Muito bom..
Obrigado!
Question I've been practicing a similar style to yours but I was shown to pull the fletches through the bow hand grip if using broadheads is that something you practice in your style as well
If you notice my movement, I don't actually pass the arrowheads through my bow hand. I open slightly my four fingers and I keep holding the bow with my thumb and palm. So the arrows actually fall under the hand and I can pick them up. This way I can hold thin AND broad arrowheads in my hand. It helps if you hold the nock and pull it down to get unstuck from your loose fingers. Then I just play with gravity to maneuver it up and on the bow.
Hello ! How long is your bow? and how many pounds of horsepower? Thank you
30lbs light short bow. Enough to do what is needed :D
Is it possible to shoot this fast carrying the arrows tip down instead of tip down as you demonstrated? Let's say a person spends an equal amount of time practicing both techniques.
Yes and doing so would make you faster. In fact, I prefer holding the arrowheads downward. You can see this in almost all my other videos.
Just wanna know, how much the draw weight of the bow? Is it possible to make it 40lb? (my preferred draw weight btw)
Yes, you can make it be even 60lbs if you carve a thicker piece of wood. Mine is 30lbs in this video. You can easily reach 40lbs with Jacaranda wood. Especially if you use epoxy and resin as varnish.
@@PanSaltzCaballeratosi wish i know how to make one. Here in my place some of the bowyer use rattan wood to make bow. Guess i have to try t out

A mí también me llamó la atención como aficionado a la arquería, en Prey el anclaje no corresponde a ninguno que haya visto antes. El que muestras 03:08 es el anclaje Comanche según pinturas y videos (Lars Andersen) .Distintos son los anclajes Apache (tomando la cuerda 3 dedos bajo la flecha) y Cherokee (índice arriba, medio y anular abajo de la flecha), este último prácticamente igua al anclaje mediterráneo (según videos de verdaderos arqueros Cherokee actuales). Saludos dese Argentina.
