[jdoro63]

Irena Szydlowska won the silver medal in Munich and became Poland’s first Olympic medalist in Archery.

[lineofverse]

Really big fan of yours! I'm shooting in a JOAD group under Cindy Bevilaqcua and I really admire your style of shooting. Keep shooting straight! =)

[ThomasBR1983]

What is the name fot the bow she is firing?

[MrRalexanderb]

She would have no chance against an elven archer with 55 carisma attached to the bow! And this has got to be fake, she didn't even have any armor! come on wtf.

[jabamelkadze1]

შემოგევლე ქართველო ქალო! შენისთანებმა შეარცხვინეს პომპეუსი არაგვის ტყეებში...world, you must know that Iberian(Georgian) archer women stoped Gneus Pompeus for some days on the river Aragvi!

[vsaluki]

@jabamelkadze1 Iberia is Spain and Portugal. Georgia is between Russian and Turkey.

[kumar01234]

all the women archers are fit all the men archers are fat

[vsaluki]

LOL. Speaking of Yun Ok Hee, I didn't realize, at first, that was her in the background. Look at how far she raises that bow a the begining of the draw. It must be at least 30 degrees above the level at which she finally shoots.

[vsaluki]

Interesting Khatuna.  I was watching some clips of the Korean women. I noticed that you bring your bow up as you are drawing and the bow never goes higher than the shooting line. The Korean women bring their bows up very high - especially Yun Ok Hee and Ki Bo Bae - and then they drop the bow into position as they draw. I also noticed that your bow arm rotates clockwise as you do the draw. I'm amazed that there is so much variation in the shooting style between individuals.

[ozskip1974]

You have to love the internet for all the armchair experts who are most likely self taught hunting archers that don't have the ability to hit the 10/X ring at 90m consistantly.  Go back to shooting your deers, you don't see me posting on your deer kill movies do you?

[KidClassics]

Great form, Ive seen you shoot around at woodley a few times a week. And was that Dons voice in the back? just curios haha



[blackfeatherarchery]

Excellent shooting team usa,

[Justice4x]

dang shes got nice tits and firm ass

[micompu]

@Justice4x hahahahahahahahahahaha did you see her shots ?? hahahhahahahahaha how funny !!

[haavikkoaxel]

pace's arm was like that cuz of a car accident i think... is that Zubrodski filming?

[oldbloke01]

A Daryl Pace front arm..top notch.

[SOCALINNOVATION]

Good form and stance girl! but i see you are lettting your release go too far back after you let go! i use to shoot Olympic Style before but now i shoot only Compound bows. Congratz on Making the team and keep practicing my friend! i'll be looking forward to meeting you some day!! i have over thirty years under my belt and it is an art form to shoot fita!! you are a picaso in motion! keep up the great work!

[HippyCat2913]

haha random russian guy takes a picture

[chonne81]

Hoyt G3 limbs... :) just like i have to! :)

[Acecarey]

Hoyt Elan Riser??

[kelidoscopegod12]

why do they let it fall again?

[fusionstar916]

follow through. nothing is to alter the flight of the arrow. holding the bow too tight will torque the arrow one way or the other during flight.

[Stevo0110]

very cool

[MrFunny27]

what pundage do u use? im only a kid so i use 24 pound recurve?

[carlwren1994]

it doesn't matter what pound age you use you can still shoot well but it does help as it is more accurate i am 15 and i shoot a 45 pound recurve but my mate at my club shoots 32 pounds almost a well as me

[MrFunny27]

thnx i realised that =P

[Slipknot4ever69]

haha 24 lbs thats not even legal to use in wisconsin for hunting i could pull that back with my finger most people show around 50-70 i shoot 60

[Aces214214]

@Slipknot4ever69 so slipknot in two year we will see you competing at the olympics right? Im rooting for you.

[yoyomasman]

you are way to cocky....post a video of you shooting a 60 pound draw back and hitting the middle 70 meters away

[igodzila7]

who are you talking about?

[igodzila7]

@yoyomasman

how many Olympics have you competed in?

she's been in 4 Olympics, and has a bronze from one of them.

and shes ranked #1 RITE NOW in the US.

lets see you shoot like that.

[MrAnon1125]

women:38lbs-44lbs

men:45lbs+

[CombatArchery]

Amazing Keep Up the Great Work.

[versionintegrale]

ive always wondered why when they fire the arrow do they let the bow drop

[XxDreamDivaxX]

to let the arrow follow through more smoothly xx

[smokeythomas3040]

lets see the groups

[123maxence321]

beautiful !

[blackfeatherarchery]

You have said 70 meter's excellent.

[blackfeatherarchery]

That was some excellent shooting how many meter's we're the shot's.

[uknowwho889]

i've no doubt that that will be 70m

[flippingfo0l]

I didn't think people still used recurve bows

[XxDreamDivaxX]

its rare 2 c any other bow used at high competition level, its recurve only at olympic games, they''ve tried 2 fight 4 compund n crossbows 2b onda program but wi tno sucsess xx

[fusionstar916]

@XxDreamDivaxX dang, your smart :)

[XxDreamDivaxX]

lol thx, train in archery myself

[tonybuzanmindmapping]

There are still.People choose recurve because there's Olympics

[eathisandie]

I never realized what an elegant sport this is.

[Drifblimz]

when did you start archery

[igodzila7]

23 years go

[igodzila7]

archery clubs for starters...

And yes A/C/E arrows at Olympics

[miyoshi82]

Is it true you shot A/C/E arrows at the Olympics?

[uknowwho889]

A/C/E's or X10's.

[didjamatic]

Khatuna used ACE's in Beijing which is why her FPS was so much faster than the other archers who were shooting heavier X10's. I believe her FPS was in the 220's which means she was probably shooting around 45-47#.

[XtcViet]

archery is fcukin ganster. lol just tried at school, want to get into the sport but dont kno where to start, any tips?

[straightarrow08]

for about 10 years and i call this bow "Beasty" it never lets me down :) I like matrix too

[jaimaneljames]

@straightarrow08

I love my elan too, It´s called ¨violet¨, my real love!!!!

[jaboae2]

ist a wicked bow as i was saying before, how long have you used it?

[jaboae2]

dam... thats a NICE bow..... must of cost you a fortune :O!

[mintusharma]

Why is your bow making such a weird sound?

[ryu8888]

Why do archers have to let their bows flop down after shooting? Looks kinda silly/impractical =.=

[Madlibber]

Because it's easier then just holding the bow up in the air in follow through. The bow "jumps" forward and out of your hand as a result of the velocity of the string. (Watch her closely, the bow jumps out, and is held back by a finger-sling) Also, it's just the natural way the bow falls.

[ryu8888]

Oooh ok. Gotcha, thanks 4 that.

[IloveDKs]

It's not easy you know after the three shootings to take your arrows back with the bow to have in your hands. :)

After the three shots when all finished we go to the tards to take back the arrows and the same time we check our performance. :)

[straightarrow08]

i like old school too as long as the arrows hit the yellow target :]

[miyoshi82]

Old skool Hoyt Elan.

[Allvyn]

Nice shooting

[igodzila7]

Gratz on 5th place in Beijing :]
