Interesting... They are shooting with wooden bows, with stabilizers and most of all: recurve bows. And still they shoot as good as modern day shooters with a compound bow !

[genieoner]

Compound bows are not an olympic discipline. Recurve or olympic style bow only.

This was when I started and although very familiar with the names how great to see the faces.Talent will always be just that regardless of equipment! a lesson to be learnt.

[harvey86250]

haha...exactly...with such basic equipment, they are hitting 1268 pts...damn...it shows how good they are...given the latest technology bows, i bet 1400 pts is not a problem...hehhee....

very cool, very impressed with John William's form

[PimmesNL]

Yeah it's amazing when you've come to think of it. I mean...do you still have any wood on your bow? haha

[CrazyDeidara]

yes

[theelementwind]

and they all have to wear white! that could be a good or bad thing though ....kinda makes it formal in some way.

[oknab]

Wow! all those bows, they've changed a lot until now lol
