In this Video PlaidCountry and I are doing Long Distance shots using a: 80 pound English Warbow, a 60-65 pound Hungarian Composite bow (recurve) and a 30 pound eastern style recurve. As well as some practice stump shooting.
Hope you enjoy it!

A very special thanks to PlaidCountry for acompanying me to Alpenblick farm for some shooting (Both Bows and cameras). Much appreciated!

  • What were the distances? Do they have world record distance shots with regular hand bows?

  • @edbapemo I do not remember exactly as it was a while ago, I reckon it wa about 200 yrds. Not sure what you mean by hand bows but English warbow distance records fall into seperate catagories according to arrow weight. to find the top records, EWBS website, is where they are posted on.

  • Nice shooting, hey what wood do you use for your arrow shafts, i use poplar and it is not to durable.

    p.s. how many yards were the bows shooting, it looks pretty far.

    Thanks

  • @warbowgeeks Thanks to ya mate! I use many woods depending on the bow, I find that ash is the best wood to use and is most durable, but polar and ironwood is good as well. Ive also found that red ceder works surprisingly well! If I remember correctly I was shooting 180 to 200 yards. I cannot remember Andre's.

  • Great work mate, with the english long bow try and get "inside the Bow" and lean forward on the draw not backwards, you think you will fall over but watch bigbowbrum and the boys. cant say much for the other bows as they simply dont compare to a #80 english long bow. Great vid tho and good luck to you.

  • @robbieatvic Thanks mate, I must say that this is when I was new to the bow, my techneique has changed since then in my newer videos, thanks again.

  • @Agincourtwarbow By regular hand bows I meant any other than compound or crossbows. They seem to have world records for everything . I'll ck. the web you mentioned. Thanks for your response !

  • @bigbowbrum Thank you very much Nick! I really appreciate that!

    Happy shooting to you,

  • Great video Jake. Really enjoyed watching you guys. Some nice shooting there and your editing techniques are coming along amazingly! Well done!

  • Great job. Try to bend in the bow more, use your whole body.
