My university has an indoor archery range quietly hidden away and very few people knows of its existence. In a glass enclosed display are several "split arrows". When someone successfully shot an arrow into the back of another, the arrows get displayed with a plaque with the name of the archer, date, and stats of the bow (draw weight, type, etc.). In all the years the range has existed (more than 100 years), there were only 8 split arrows on display.

@@reinhard8053 too bad we didn’t see the scene prior that would have added excellent context but it’s not only the noise but the context of the noise that makes deer jump (or not) a falling rock which is more or less sudden is going to put the deer on high alert as it would scream “predator” (or at least the possibility of one) this is why moving during hunting is such a pain because deer run off at the sound of crunching leaves or broken twigs.

@@reinhard8053 I've heard of some hunters that will try the rock thing in very, very specific scenarios (usually when they are above a bedded deer and something is blocking there view of the deer, toss a rock down towards the deer and hope it gets him to stand up so you can shoot) but as someone who has quite extensive experience bow hunting for mule deer tossing rocks around or making any kind of noise at all is something I would avoid at all costs. More than likely, if you throw a rock towards a deer he is gonna bolt and you'll probably never see him again. The best quality a bow hunter can have is patience and tossing rocks at deer is the epitome of impatient hunting. If killing a deer is going to be the only way you get to eat for a few days I promise you won't be throwing rocks around, you'll be quietly and patiently waiting for a better shot opportunity.

Not true. It wasn’t their occupation. During the Longbow era, it was law that every single man had to practice longbow archery every day for a certain time (I think it was 2 hours). England literally made it law that no matter your normal occupation you had to be ready to go to war as a longbowmam. This is actually something that really pissed of the French during the Hundred Years’ War. They found it insulting that someone who wasn’t even a professional soldier, let alone a nobleman, could kill their noble knights. It led to a lot poor decisions on the part of the French who refused to believe such an incredible insult was real and repeatedly made the same mistakes over and over. Something the English took full advantage of.

The thing with Katniss and The Hunger Games shooting style is that she learned from her father, and likely adopted whatever form he used.

The only other people we see knowing archery in the series are Career Tributes, who would have trained in an academy style, again probably closer to Olympic style than a hunting scenario. Let's face it, if the events that preceeded the series happened and someone who has sporting form and has never hunted is out in the woods with their bow, they're going to shoot as trained.

Anyway making a "Robin Hood shot" with wooden arrows is possible but to split the wooden shaft like in "Brave" there have to be some certain conditions. Wooden arrows can be made three ways - 1. by splitting a log into finer and finer shafts and then turning them round or conical and then proceed with assembling an arrow; 2. cutting young shoots, season them in tight bundles and then making them into arrows with all the steps nescesery 3. make shafts from square wood pieces cut to dimensions (like f.e. 1/2 x 1/2 inch) by turning them through the dowel maker (which is totally modern way) Number 1 and 2 are historically correct way of making an arrow and due to even wood grain it is actually possible to split an arrow with another arrow. Especially with no. 2 method as it behaves like a bamboo (which is another case in sucessfull splitting arrow) due to round grain crossection as it's basically an arrow made out of a young branch. Oh, and the eastern style bamboo shelf for short arrows is called tong-ah and it roots in Korean archery. Yes, it is real.

Unfortunately not quite. I got skeptical when he reviewed Robin Hood and only confirmed by his review on War of the Arrows. He's unfamiliar with eastern styles of archery. Doesn't know what an overdraw device is (tong ah as seen in War of the Arrows). Probably won't know what hatra/khatra is among other techniques. Also, it's one thing to attempt perfect accuracy in competitions and such. It's another thing in the battlefield. You're not looking to get perfect accuracy in the battlefield; archers are going for maximum output to rain down upon their enemies. So both western and eastern cultures had their forms of speed archery using longbows or reflex bows. Injuring soldiers is far more easier to do than to kill (armor unlike in movies does its job protecting the user from arrows therefore lethal hits from arrows are incredibly difficult to do even with bodkin points) I'm not saying he's a bad reviewer. From a western style traditional archer, he's great. But he does lack some information regarding eastern style of archery.

"try no longer to be holding the string" is really what we do in traditional Japanese archery (kyudo), so I was fascinated to hear that. We don't use bare fingers for pulling the string, but a deerskin glove that has a hard notch in it, and of course the arrow goes to the right side of the bow. The bow is very simple, and usually made of bamboo; there is no shelf, just the top of the basal part of the left thumb for the arrow. The bow is held with the bare left hand and only three fingers; the index finger is free at the top. When the arrow is released the body is expanded and the bow twists within the left hand so that the string hits the back of the forearm. Difficult to describe but I am sure if anyone is interested they can find a youtube demonstration.
@krystofhak3047 2 роки тому
"try no longer to be holding the string" is also alfa and Omega of Olympic archery... even with compound when you have realese in your hand you kinda try to let it shoot itself without you.... even when you sniper you dont "pull" the trigger but you keep tension on the trigger... all the same...

@ET-cj8jo 2 роки тому
I should have mentioned a few more things. First is that hitting the target is not the point of kyudo, and if the archer thinks about the target the arrow will never meet it. Second is that the bow is not held tightly, one has to think of holding an egg, and the notch of the hand between the forefinger and thumb is used to push the bow rather than hold it. There should be no grip tension. This is how the bow is able to twist in the hand and the string meet the forearm after release, because there is no actual grip on the bow. The binding of the bow is made of leather and wood ash is used to make it less slippery, and yet more slippery (this I cannot explain without actually showing, sorry). Third, the expansion of the body to pull the arrow into the release position. It is a bit like hugging a tree and is very difficult and non-intuitive. Fourth, the release of the arrow is the absolute most difficult part of kyudo. The notch in the glove that holds the string is curved, so as the body expands the glove actually twists a little until there is not enough notch to hold the string, and it releases. You will notice that when release occurs, the whole body expands and the arms come outwards so that the archer's arms are horizontal and the chest expanded, so the tension in the body is also released. The notch is thus paramount to how release occurs, and it is incredibly rude therefore to look at the notch of another archer's glove. Lastly, there is also long distance kyudo, and in a similar way to the western archery explained in the video, the arm is not raised; only after the arrow position is confirmed then the archer moves the whole upper body at the waist, so that the basic technique remains the same. Best wishes from Japan !

The last one he was using a Tong-ha which used to be a Korean state secret back then. In the movie he had to use it as the arrow was broken, which was a common practice for Korean archers at the time. They'd take a broken arrow, sharpen it, and shoot it back at their enemies. Of note, do remember that although a large body of archery falls under what is considered "western archery" and is considered "correct," there ARE other forms of archery that are very different and by no means less effective. For example, the thumb release method (also used in Korea) has little to no archer's paradox and you can shoot a whole lot more straighter. The Comanche shot with a pinch grip and to get around paradox they only cut one nock in the top limb of the bow so the string ran diagonal instead of straight. Carving a grip in the handle could make it behave almost like a center shot bow and so a Comanche could ride up within mere feet of a buffalo, fire a fully powered shot very accurately on a dime without worrying about paradox wildly affecting the shot placement so close.
@blackbird71a Рік тому
"Little to no archer's paradox" I find that highly unlikely, if not outright impossible. The archer's paradox is caused by 1) the arrow being off-center from the travel of the string to the center of the bow, and 2) the force of the released string on the rear of the arrow, inertia, and friction of the arrow against the bow causing the arrow to compress and bend under pressure, creating an oscillation in the arrow. The only way to eliminate the archer's paradox is if there were a hole in the middle of the bow to shoot the arrow through so that it was in a straight line with the travel of the string. Even then, the force of compression would likely still cause some oscillation.

Now at 40 I've been shooting traditional archery for over 20 years. After this many years I'm still at a 65 lb bow and I know that sounds heavy but I hunt and I never want my shots to go to waste. There are a lot of longbow and recurve bows that still use sites and that's perfectly fine. I shoot instinctually so I don't use any sites but it's like throwing a baseball. When you throw a baseball, you don't aim down your arm and hope to hit the target. Your body just knows how to aim for the target. I don't know about a lot of people, but I learned how to shoot traditional with both eyes open. I know that's very common but with compound bow it's such a different monster to deal with...

While its possible, the criticism isn't usually the equipment, its how he lands the shot after missing a ton of times at close range. When you are missing at close range and the target is gaining distance while you still haven't zeroed in on the target, it makes hitting the target at greater distances laughably hard. The perfect analogy (for some gun shooters) is the following: imagine shooting an AR-15 with base iron sights and missing at 100 yards. You get a small sense of where you should shoot for the next shot but surprise, I moved the target back to 250 yards. You shoot again and you miss. Not a surprise, its further out so your frame of reference for landing the shot at 100y is now moot. So you wanna try again. Surprise again... now its 500 yards. Ramsay hitting that shot is the equivalent of you missing all those shots and then by some divine luck hitting a 1000 yard shot in a single try. Possible? Sure? Likely? No.

Orlando Bloom in his role as Legolas trained for months and there's a few videos of his excellent shooting prowess on youtube. He could shoot absurdly well and very quickly, and the bow he used in the movie was not a prop. His stancing was his own personal style, and proved exceptionally accurate. So despite him not using "proper form" according to Jim, I disagree strongly about his rating as a fellow archer who had been shooting for 12-15 years with a similar bow to the one used by the character in question. Each person has their own form and positioning. Not to mention that during that scene Legolas had been shooting arrows continuously for several hours as well as fighting with his blades, and as such must have been significantly tired. As such, he would likely attempt to alleviate this fatigue and maximize his chance of hitting at such a long range by doing a draw that requires less effort to hold back (with his arm slightly farther back and up, to use his shoulder and upper arm to brace the shot and aim with less energy). The fact that Wonder Woman's scenes got a higher rating is almost laughable. lol

You only really pivot your body up for 80+ yards, but you do still kind of raise your arm. At shorter distances you do just make small adjustments up or down with your arm. I think Legolas's shooting elbow was only high because he was shooting from a battlement. so he was shooting at target lower than him. Lighter arrows don't necessarily go further either. A lot of people seem think lighter arrows go further than heavier arrows. An arrow with a heavier arrow head is going to go further than an arrow with a lighter head.
@irreverentchaos7310 Рік тому
Feel like the Lord of the Rings one is a bit hard to judge. He was shooting down from a very high wall which given your explanation of tilting your body to adjust would explain a high elbow, and elves are a lot stronger than humans so the draw strength on their bows is probably larger than you'd think

In Hawkeye's defense on the no look shot: You mentioned a trick shot in the mirror. Hawkeye is standing on the top of a building in New York. His superpower is supposedly superhuman eyesight, reflexes, and spatial awareness. I think it's totally plausible he used the window of a building as the mirror to pull off that shot. I haven't rewatched that scene to see if there is an off camera building, but if there is, I would reason that's how he did it.

@@luiscontreras767 It's a superhero movie. When did they ever let realism limit their heroes? That scene has one single reason to exists and it's to cement just how superhuman Clint's spatial awareness is. He's seen the target and extrapolated it's trajectory and to place the arrow where the target will be he doesn't even have to see it. It's as unreal as just about everything else in that movie, but given the setting it did it's job. It's a bit like what is often called instinctive shooting which you can learn, but will never be as accurate as using regular sight systems. It does however make for some great scenes in movies. Remember all those cowboy movies where the revolver men will draw and shoot from the hip and always hit just what they are aiming for, being it a coin, a candle, a gun or the heart of the bad guy? While not totally impossible for a single shot the show of repeatable perfect accuracy is so bogus.

@@keithparker5103 The thing you have to consider is the part when the arrow leaves the bow. If you put the feathers wrong, it can drastically change the flight path of the arrow. Arrows mostly don't spin in the air, they wobble in a wave pattern. Look it up in slow motion arrow clips on UKposts. You don't want your arrow to go spinning because it only strays from target.

People started opting for more maneuverable weapons and they did hit arrows with them, but most of the time, it would either halfway snap the shaft or damage the flights, and you'd still get hit, it would just be a lot less comfortable.

The best movie about archery is War of the Arrows. Koreans take archery seriously because they have been known for thousands of years as expert archers. The scene you described about wounding the other person is because he was being chased by another group of archers. Basically was a trap to reveal where the other guys were. When you watch the scene further, you see that someone falls for the trap and tries to pull him into cover which reveals the positions of others.
