How do you get the brass nock off? Thank you for your videos, I really enjoy them!
@IREFUSE9 you can use a pair of nocking pliers if you have some but I just use a pair of wire cutters and place one of the blade in the gap of the brass nock and gently squeeze then the nock will open without any real damage. You can do it with a flat blade screwdriver but I've stabbed myself in the fingers too much doing that. Enjoy the archery journey.
Do you place the arrow above the nock point or below it ?
The arrow always goes under the nock.
Brilliant, love the supersized example 👍
Another great video, thank you. On a separate note I see you arrow rest tip aligns with your pressure button. Is this deliberate? Have you cut it back just adjust on wrap-around slot? Thanks Steve
@trujedi good observation. I shoot very thin carbon arrows outdoors so I have to position my rest quite close to the plunger. The end of the rest is slightly bent up to help stop the arrow falling off the rest if I happen to pinch it ( which I sometimes do if I'm under pressure during a competition). When I shoot indoors I use much thicker arrows so I lower the rest to allow for it.
Hi, great video, very easy to follow, thank you. Couple of questions, are you shooting level through the paper or slightly down becaue of boss height and also, would you need to move nock point if changing arrows, say fatter or thinner diameter, different spine etc?
@trujedi hi, in this case, I am shooting slightly downwards but it doesn't make any difference to the way the arrow goes through the paper what you are trying to do is get the point and the fletching to pass through the same hole. If you change to thicker or thinner arrows your nock height will change very slightly but changing arrow stiffness should not affect your nock point. Hope this helps. Enjoy your archery journey and thanks for the support.
@@thebarebowbrummie makes great sense, thank you
Man those T-shirts are so good. This channel needs a lot more love! Great explanations.
Thanks!
No problem!
Ingenious setup to demonstrate this problem. Well done that man! 🎖
Glad you enjoyed it!

@@Samblack...archery welcome, enjoy the archery journey.
I can see exactly what you are saying, never thought about before, but can now, I hope there's lots out there who will now adjust their aim thanks to you. 👍
@@user-kv2bg9kd1b glad you enjoyed it. Enjoy the archery journey.
Nice clear explanation.
Wow! This is an excellent explanation. Thank you very much.
Very helpful and good pace of delivery. Just need to build my wallpaper holder and give it a go. Thanks.
@crossnoise6903 glad you enjoyed it. Enjoy your archery journey.
How do you know / work out, how far back or forth from the nock to place the fletching on the shaft?
That's an interesting question. ideally, you position your fletching as near to the nock as you can bearing in mind you need to place your fingers between the fletching and the nock. But there is a little bit of trial and error involved, so it's not a precise science. I tend to measure the distance based on similar arrows with the same size fletching and then adjust them to improve stability until I find the right position. I hope this helps. Enjoy the archery journey.
I got so fed up with fletching, I decided to just shoot without fletch. My rationale: I’m at a stage where I’m far from a beginner and far from being “good”. I’m “competent”. Fletch is a waste on my at my skill level.
Hi Peter. I think you need to reconsider. Your fletching creates stability in your arrow flight. Without them you may have very little consistency, and the slightest fault in your release or the tune of your bow could mean a bad miss.
Got to be a reason why people don't shoot without vanes or feathers. It's worked for several thousand years.
If you put arrow wraps on your arrow first and glue the fletchings to the arrow wrap when it is time to renew the fletchings you don't have glue on the arrow shaft to scrap off
Doesn't that mean you still have to clean the glue off the wrap or replace your wrapping when you are re-fletching?
@@thebarebowbrummie take fletchings off and peel off the wrap. Easy to make your own wraps using oracle 651 sheet. Clean shaft with rubbing alcohol, let dry and put new wrap on and then refletch.
Is it just the Saturday morning session for the club?
Some of our members shoot on Thursday afternoons but official club times are Saturday 10 til 12pm
Where in brum are you dude? I'm in Yardley looking for a range to get back into shooting.
Hi mitch. My club is in yardley wood. If you search South Birmingham archers you will find it.
Love your shirt, so true
Thank you it’s about time some showed you what to do without skipping any steps
You're very welcome. Enjoy the archery journey
Why are you not allowed to shoot carbon arrows at your club ?
Hi Jake. It's a safety thing, we share our club grounds with a children's football club and as its almost impossible to find lost carbon arrows with a metal detector the club decided to ban them rather than risk a child getting hurt falling on a lost arrow.
Great video - as always very practical information and easy to follow instructions.
Nice one Terry! 👍
Lovely video and great to see some footage of the weekend. Glad you had a good time despite the weather and mud! I was one of the course layers/marshalls for A course. The reasoning for the 36 targets was overall admissions this year were slightly lower than anticipated, so rather than have empty pegs, the decision was made to reduce it down a little. This did also help speed things up, and considering how slippery it got on the second day, we were certainly grateful for this as marshalls.
You all did a great job. The number of targets didn't matter one bit. Thank you for all your efforts 👌
Thank you very much sir....I think your video is the best in TH-cam explaining how to tune your bow. I'm subscribing 😊
Thank you for your support. Enjoy the archery journey.
Thank you very much for this explanation! It was very helpful.
You're very welcome. Enjoy the archery journey
Great explanation. Thank you.
Very helpful video as I'm about to cut carbons from 31 to 26 ( to try using a clicker) so I won't now use the pipe cutter, thanks. I originally thought cutting the arrow would make the arrow stiffer, so I Goggled it. The answer appears to be it does and it doesn't. Help.
Hi. Shortening your arrows definitely stiffens them, you can prove it to yourself by simply holding your arrow at each end and then bending it, then move your hands closer together and try to bend it again. You will feel that it is harder to do. Thank you for your support 🙏
Are you Scottish?.. .. ..A lot of cost saving tips.. .
No, just stingy
Is there a link to the chart?
If you search arrow spine charts there are lots of them. Thank you for your support 🙏
Caught part 2 last evening, really cleared up a lot of questions I had. The short distance through paper was a lights on experience.. ..let me know if you ever plan to travel to the Bahamas, maybe a session for the local groups can arranged. I am in Nassau.
Thanks for the offer. I ever get there I'll let you know
Nice one Terry! I never thought to level the bow straight on a wall and do a line to check the horizontal arrow straightness as well 👍
Very informative thankyou
Thanks for that
Have you tried bamboo arrows? I have only shoot cedar and pine
I haven't shot wooden arrows at all unfortunately. being predominantly a barebow archer I have only shot aluminium or carbon. That's why I don't really give advice on more trad shooting
@@thebarebowbrummie i heard that bamboo is like carbon because its holow,light and extreme hard
@exzendar2523 apparently that's true. I watched an American trad archer talking about them and he said the same thing
hey. I have already applied some of your tips to adjust the bow. I did the center shot. Can you also make a video on how to adjust the coil spring? That's checking with an arrow without a feather, I thought.
It's funny you should ask that because I'm in the process of making a new video all about arrow and arrow tuning which you may enjoy. Thank you for your support.
@@thebarebowbrummie top. because I find your explanation very interesting. I have adjusted the bow and the arrows are already straight and together better.
Thank you, sir. Youve provided some very divergent info here; most archery channels i watch either discuss bowyery(which i do appreciate), or a very simplified analysis of draw mechanics. While this video sort of lacks the frills (i.e.-making/shooting a bow) youve given very valuable info other channels arent giving 👍
We have a very similar method in Kyudo, hold an arrow to your nose while facing forward and measure to your the end of your middle finger with your arm out stretched , then add 15cm (about 6", for new archers)
oh man, this video gave me some hope. I am thinking to get into archery. I was delaying it because of corona, then I got a son, and I think to buy a bow in the coming weeks. I don't like to do online shopping, I want to see things, touch them, feel them and that is what toke me so long. I wanted to try horse bows, because they are smaller and more agile and I saw this crazy dude, lars andersen. but in my area, there are mostly recurve bows or long bow. So I was thinking if it is possible to use (as much as possible) a recurve bow as a horse bow. so, to get a smaller one and play around till I find my style. this video just slapped me and told me to do whatever I think is fun. because all the other videos I saw were like "you have to do this or you are doing it wrong". but historically archery wasn't like that (as they said), but it got "boring" since it became a sport where they add so many extensions on their bows and where they follow strict rules on bow configuration and such. they force their preferences and their fits to others, as if all are like them. anyway. I still have a question: is it better to go with a shorter riser and longer arms or longer riser and shorter arms?
Hi, a shorter riser and longer limbs will make the bow a bit more forgiving. A longer riser with short limbs will make the bow more aggressive and faster. It depends on which one you prefer, there really isn't a right or wrong way.
@@thebarebowbrummie so medium from both would be like the sweet spot. I think a 21" would be good, or maybe 23", but 25" is then too big for my taste. thanks for your reply
Great video and tips. Thank you. I wasn't aware of the dominant eye test. Appreciate the insight. Jane
Thank you so much for the insight into costs etc..and your walk round as you shoot. It's lovely to see honest footage. Thanks for sharing.
You're very welcome 🙏
Thank you for a very informative presentation. You have given a very clear explanation. Cheers , have a good weekend.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for your support 🙏
Thank you for this video as well as all the others before it. I am very new to archery and have taken it up as I have just recently retired. As an office dweller my upper body strength is somewhat lacking, as I have found out to my dismay, but that has not put me off. My preference is field archery, walking a course and shooting at different targets which offers different challenges at each one. I have an approx draw length of 26" and my current bow is a Samic Sage 60" @ 25lb. Now, I know others may say the weight is too light, but if I'm honest, after a day out, I am exhausted, but just to add, I stand only 5' 5" 😅. I do have a second set of limbs waiting to be used: 35lb, but until I get comfortable and proficient with what I have got, they can wait. Once again, thank you for taking the time to post these very valuable videos.
25lb is about where I started many years ago. Just be patient and don't be pressured into moving up in draw weight too quickly. It's best to concentrate on form at first and when you are ready move up in weight. I'm glad you like the videos there are more to come. Enjoy the archery journey.
Ah yes, porpoising is exactly what's happening to me, thanks for the help!
I'm glad to be of help. Enjoy the archery journey.

Nice wood & course shame about the noise pollution from the motorway though..😮
To be fair, it's not as loud as it seems. My microphone is a bit sensitive. Thank you for your support 🙏
@@thebarebowbrummie agh OK ya might have to block it out then or wear ear muffs ha!..love the wood,& course layout anyway, and your helpfull instructions on 3D archery 🏹 scores, pegs etc very helpfull. especially like the fixed camera 📷 capturing the arrows hitting the 3d targets..all the best 🙏
Very helpful. I have the exact same wingspan draw length but will need to do the others.
