Okay, common archery shooting mistakes start when you actually step up to the shooting line, and are preparing to shoot. Your body alignment with the target should be parallel to the target. Your shoulders should be facing the target. So, you're first initial stance, the way your feet are on the line, they should be parallel with the line.
One you're in that position, placing the hand in the handle is very important. Remember your hand has to be behind the handle. A common mistake is that people grab it like this, with the thumb actually behind the handle. That is going to put a lot of pressure on your thumb, and then cause you to grab the bow tighter, so that you would kick it or torque the bow when you shoot.
So, get your hand behind the bow. When you place your fingers on the string, only three fingers go on the string. See now, not four fingers like a lot of people do, but only three. And, a good way to do this and remember is to put your thumb and your pinkie together. Your thumb and your pinkie together to grab the bow with just three fingers.
So, that's another mistake that happens quite often. Once you have your hand and your fingers in place, when you bring the bow up, here's the big mistake though, a lot of people make. They hyper-extend their elbow into the path of the string. That's going to cause a lot of pain, and also it's going to deflect the arrow and make you inaccurate.
So, bend your arm away from the string, therefore keeping the string clear of being deflected. When you pull back into your anchor position, what you want to do is be consistent with your anchor. You've got to put your hand or fingers on your face in the same place every time. Very important, because that gives you the consistency. When you come back, if you anchor in the corner of your mouth, make sure that you anchor in the corner of your mouth every time.
Some people anchor under their chin. Under your chin, your fingers should always go under your chin, never diverting from that position. Remember always to keep your elbow higher than your shoulder. A lot of people when they first start shooting have a low elbow, because they use their bicep to pull the string back. Try to pull your string back with your bicep. Notice she can't do it, because she has proper form, but a lot of people can't lift their elbow up, until they've practiced a lot and built up the muscles in their back in order for them to do that.
Alright, now when you take your shot, what you want to try to avoid is moving the bow. While you release the string, the bow must stay stable, and in the same position. So, let's try it and take a shot. Come up into your ready position, bend your arm, pull back to your anchor, aim, shoot, and hold in that position. Then come back down to the rest. That was perfect form.

How do I take an arrow out of my knee?
Lahking AyeSoul Try an arrow puller
throw a pommel at it or use a katana to slice through your knee but be warned for if you use to much force the katana might slice through the fabric of space time
Lahking AyeSoul PULL IT OUT OR GO TO THE HOSPITAL

I used to be an adventurer like you, until I watched this video.
Got my first bow today from the renaissance festival :) can't wait to master it.
These are great beginning tips! I'm not professional or anything, but these are the thing's I do.
I started archery July 27 and now I'm learning how to shoot a bow and arrow correctly and properly for the shooting range. I don't dry fire because that will damage my bow. My stance is good, but my wrist isn't always straight when I pull back, and my bow arm is slightly bent. I'm working on it though. Thanks!
i just started practicing archery & gave me instant improvements 👍
what improvement?
my accuracy & not letting string hit my arm it just help ya be better
i was at queens archery last week for an introduction lesson had a great time
you guys are the best. The videos you have are very informative and detailed, it helped me a lot.
3:28 that arrow landed on my heart
I had been taught to keep my elbow so my forearm is parallel to the ground (inline with my shoulder). I think my elbow that high would burn my shoulder out pretty quickly. I can understand a higher elbow with a mechanical release, and that it's better a slightly higher elbow than one too low. Even finger pressure on the string is easier with a level forearm, where a high elbow may mean neutral tiller may not make sense with the added pressure on the low fingers. Good video in any case.
thanks i love the way you teach.
I guess a bent elbow works on low strength bows, but you arms will be killing you with the heavy stuff if you arm isn't straight.
Is that the son of Fred Flinstone and Steven Segal?

Very helpful ,Thank you, greetings from china.
Excellent lesson
Bethesda has a lot to learn.
Doesn't really matter, though feathers are better in any way and form. Also you don't have to wear protection on your bowhand even on higher poundages if you use feathers.
I came here to see if im doing any of these. Im 15 years old and i love my 20 year old compound bow. I learned not to do any of these mistakes naturally. Now i feel pretty good😇
Thanks for the Class Sir it has served me much
sigh, some people do shoot three under they have tabs for that too,but you are right a split tab is one over two under, instead of three under, and you dont want to grip the bow tight will cause the bow to shoot higher or off center usually, consistancy is key to developing some sence of knowing where your arrow is going to land, shooting instinctive or by memory that is, also there is a style to shoot off thumb in the differant horsebow styles or japanese style but another can of worms it is.
for one thing you do not hold the riser with a closed hand, You should rest the handle of the riser between you're thumb and indexfinger but to help that you should use a sling or you can also put you're index finger and thumb around the handle but no other fingers,Not doing this can twist you're limbs and you're bow string won't align correctly with the limbs
Ah I gotcha, there is still a little sting from feathers though, although no cut like you said. As far as the shelf concept goes I can understand that but she's using a recurve (which was what 337 giants question was in referance to) with an arrow rest on it. Not a long bow.
As a certified IOC coach, I have no problem with the content of this video. After all, it is aimed at the person curious about our discipline. Improvements to bad form are performed on a one to one basis and cannot be taught via visual media.
what happened to actually holding the arrow?
Do not touch the arrow during a shooting, you will release wrong, and the arrow will not fly straight.
Ziirf
Really??? News to me and I have been shooting quite straight for over 45 years. Look at Howard Hill or Byron Ferguson. They both shoot with the same hold I do. One finger over and 2 under. Howard Hill was a tournament archer as well, and never lost a tournament.
pickin4you If you have 1 finger over and 2 under i bet you are touching the string and not the arrow.
Ziirf
Really? Well they are my fingers and my arrows and my string, and I know I am touching both the string and the arrow. You cannot win this argument with me. I have been shooting this way for over 45 years. I think I know what I am talking about. Not sure where you learned about shooting or how you shoot, but I feel sorry for you if you think you should never touch the arrow or it will not go straight.
And by touching you mean the slight contact that you have have with the arrow as you are hold the string? - If you as you say have 45 years of archery under your belt you should have know i mean by "do not touch the arrow" to the comment i replied to which were: "what happened to actually holding the arrow?"
Excellent!
I'm lost on your reply here, what do feathers have to do with wearing protection and what are you considering your "bowhand"?
great technique
I learned archery from the SCA it's a medieval based fighting. And I was taught when you pull the string back to have a finger above and two below the knock or arrow. Does this matter with indoor or compound bows? ( I UAE a standard long bow)
Good and informative video! thanx. I never paid attention to my elbow and thunb position, hence, I'll mind it:)
is it just me or is this the best christopher walken iimpression ever
excellent video...thank you
While I agree to an extent, I don't see horrible and terrible hand position. When shooting a recurve, from my own research you can shoot with 2 fingers, or 3 fingers: clasping the arrow with your index, and middle or with all 3 fingers beneath it - whichever way is comfortable.
like the video, nice and clear instruction
Rose Tyler learning to defend herself
Good for u
I can imagine the "slap" sound the string makes when it hits the arm..
Thanks for the upload of this video.
I would be interested in any exercises one can do to help train those arm, shoulder and back muscles without holding the bow?
Take care.
mrbluenun
I know that is the thumb ring horsebow style shooting, same with the yumi three fingers over your thumb of the ugake or glove in kyudo archery, but there are a few schools of thought on kyudo, both very slow and methodical today as they are for zen cultivation and the hardest form of meditation there is even more then chado or sado tea ceremony in Japan, in korea and mongolian they use the thumb ring I know.
I tried this technique. It totally decreased my accuracy.
I'm a beginner, but I never miss the target with my normal stance and technique.
Great video anyway! It's great to see there's a huge variety of techniques out there. This one didn't work with me, but I'm sure it has with someone!
because howcast doesn't have professionals.
+Sinister Potato =) well when it comes ot archery, it matters "what works for you".
So right Mike
0:20 she hyperextends her elbow, gives me goosebumps.
why would it matter if the bow is moved after the arrow has already hit the target?
+Mike The Gamer Technically it wouldn't, but if you build a habit of not moving until it hits the target then you will further guarantee that no bow movement will affect your shot whenever you shoot. You'll develop better consistency.
So right
if the bow moves it throughs off your aim and accuracy in that shot
the point is to give enough time so you don't start moving your bow before the arrow leaves.
it's called follow through. it is important in shooting a gun also
She is using an eye anchor (looking along the arrow), which is VERY DANGEROUS. In the event of a misfire where the arrow gets caught up on the belly of the bow or the nock separates or the arrow breaks, it will be propelled back into your eye. A lot of people teach beginners to draw with three fingers under the arrow because it is convenient. The only problem is that beginners will often start looking along the arrow and leave a gap. The one-above-two below grip prevents catastrophic injury.
This helped me A LOT!:D
~Thanks~
Glad I watched this. I shot myself in the foot the first three times I tried out my new bow.
Thats a joke right
lilravnos05 games obviously not
@@11more40 how bows are easy to use
very helpful!
No, your body alignment should be perpendicular to the target. If it were parallel, you would be looking straight at the target and it would be very difficult to shoot your bow at it.
Awesome thanks
Will different bows cause me to have different anchor points
it's acceptable. contrary to this guy's instruction, there are actually a few acceptable methods to draw. the three finger method is the easiest and most common which is why he was advising it. but some archery methods use 2 fingers. some use 3 with the arrow between the 1st and 2nd finger on the string, others with it above the 1st on the string. in the east, archers commonly used a small tab in the hand to pull the string back, anchoring the tab with their thumb.
that would be perpendicular to the target. ;)
Ch S Two people have mentioned this now. Your right foot is to be behind the line and parallel to it, your left foot is in front of the line off parallel by roughly forty five degrees. Parallel, not perpendicular.
PARALLEL TO THE LINE
PERPENDICULAR TO THE TARGET
THE PHRASE
"PARALLEL BY ROUGHLY 45 DEGREES" IS LIKE SAYING "A RIGHT ANGLE BETWEEN 35 AND 45 DEGREES"...IT MAKES NO SENSE, LIKE YOU!!!!!!!! YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU..............UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Please help me to understand something here. I have gotten back into my Archery after a forced 21 year break due to my younger brothers steeling all my things (Including ALL of my Archery gear.) & selling or giving it all away just to spite me!
I was taught (First by my English Grandfather & then by my school Coach.) to tilt my bow a wee bit to my right, hold onto the shaft at the nock with my first & middle finger as I would draw back with three fingers & loose my shaft. BUT! Here you have the young lady loading the shaft WELL ABOVE her right hand with her hand no where close to the shaft as she draws back & looses the shaft.
I am shooting a 58 inch long, 45# pull, Hickory bow with a "Flemish Twist" Dacron string. It is not one of these fancy compound bows or a fancy take down Recurve bow. It is just a good, old fashioned bow!
If I had tried to shoot the way the young lady is shooting here, my Grandfather would have paddled my backside with MY OWN BOW & my Middle School & High School Coach would have had me running laps till I thought I was dead! What is so different between 1964 to 1977 & today?
I have been told by experts in England that I am doing it all correctly as my Grandfather had started teaching me at 8 years old & my Coach just kept it up the same way! Why the difference?
actually in my opinion this video is pretty much bullshit. it doesn't matter how you shot but how well you score. there's no one way of doing things there are lots and not all of them are wrong or right for that matter, just what suits you
Gar As I said before. My Grandfather was from England. He was an honest to goodness English Lord in name only & a Knight Of The Realm. No property nor money involved here due to a SNAFU between the Crown & the family over taxes AGES & AGES AGO! But he taught me all that he felt a young English Noble SHOULD know about defending ones Goddess, (God.) Family, Queen, Country & those weaker then ones self & unable to defend themselves!
He HATED GUNS & taught me archery with an English Longbow, Crossbow, (NOT these new things that look more like a gun then a crossbow these days!) Swords & other old weapons used in England during the Renaissance.
So, when I was watching these videos, I was a bit confused as to the way the young lady was getting ready to loose that shaft because it went against EVERYTHING Grandfather & my Coach taught me.
I can defiantly use the exercises I have seen here during these cold, Cold, COLD winters here in Wisconsin & I am not able to get out & practice. BUT! There are other things that I am just going to have to ignore because they look like they are meant for archers using a compound bow & I do not shoot one of those "Cheaters bows." (Do you get the feeling that I DO NOT like a compound bow!) :-))
of course i do, it's not just cheating, you also lie to yourself in my opinion. we can easily calculate our own strength but when things like that come to our hands we think too much of ourselves and overestimate our own power.. not only does it not teach us the right morals but it also gives us illusions about what we're capable of. but at the same time i don't think that if someone scores 98/100 you can tell him it's the wrong way because honestly it's not. even tho i'm old fashioned myself & i do hope to teach my children and children's children the old ways of bow and arrow i will not force them into it like i would assume your grandfather did, your body is good enough at estimating stuff and all these "rules" just ruin it to me :l (& "nobles" are nothing more than just people who thought of themselves more than others, so i hate "nobles")
Gar You say, "nobles" are nothing more than just people who thought of themselves more than others, so i hate "nobles" I can not speak about others that were (And still are today. Just look at Federal,, State & Local Government.) that way, but my Grandfather was defiantly NOT that way & would have paddled my tail end if I acted that way! When he could leave the booze (His ONE huge downfall.) alone, he would have killed to protect someone weaker then himself AND given that person the shirt off his back.
I was not allowed to act all stuck up & like I was better then others & I remember those lessons (ALL OF THEM!) to this day. I know how to behave in any given situation from dining with The Queen to having dinner at Dairy Queen & all points in-between.
I am very proud of the title & responsibilities that he left me. Do I let it go to my head? ONLY where it counts & that is at The Renaissance festival I do volunteer work at two months a year. I use it against those that are playing like they are nobles during the weekends & then go too far with it & start acting like they are hot stuff ALL THE TIME & treat others around them poorly.
Then I have a go at them with all the training Grandfather gave me & from the totally legal standpoint of being a real Lady Of The Realm & treat them worse then they were passing out to others! It has taken me doing that to one person 5 times before he got the point that he IS NOT a noble & even if he were, it does not give him the right to treat others poorly! The others I got after learned very fast that they had stepped over the line & did not do it again.
SO! Please keep in mind that NOT all Nobles are the way you think they are. Some are very like the way Grandfather taught me to be & are not even able to act like the stuck-up ones!
And if you were in asia you would be paddled if you draw it back with anything other than your thumb, what is your point? Some native americans used 2 fingers, others pull by the arrow instead of the string. He is not demonstrating traditional english archery with a "D" shaped yew self bow.
Who is this gentleman?? 👍
Thanks fo the video
your first archery mistake was watching this video
I hunt rabbit with a re-curve and a deer with a compound bow so yes i have
Ax Outdoors My note to you: this video is not for hunting with a bow, man. Not for hunting a rabbit or a deer with a bow. Think about it before commenting.
Ax Outdoors what happen to the girl in the video?
Satan There's a lot of little quirks that are on their bow, and even though the difference is minute, every detail matters.
Satan Well they have an attachment to the bow that protects the fingers once the arrow is notched onto the string, it actually only takes two fingers to pull back the string and fire one above and below the end of the arrow holding it in place.
Usually you want to extend your arm the full length, and wear a bracer to prevent rope burn, you lose a lot of stability when you bend your arm like that to avoid the string.
If you want to see archery mistakes, watch ANY of their other videos.
Perfect position but still missed a bull-eyes from that distance?!
hater
Joey Roberto you ty it, i bet you wont even hit the board
reactiegever acctualy from that distance you should be getting 9 & 10 every time
michael geddes if you are experienced yes.
When you have a 60 year old guy talking about your form over you ear, and a camera filming you, you tend to become a bit inaccurate.
I thought it was just me seeing mistakes. Its mainly in her arms her elbow is really high and also ive seen her bow arm straight and she never wears a arm guard and with her elbow she isn't rolling on the release .I almost starting questioning myself when shooting now I feel better knowing other people see the mistakes.
A heads-up on your video, try to have another, extra, camera so that we can see what is going on as she anchors, and from the side to see the angle of the elbow. Also, ask the model to pull her hair up, as it gets in the way of the shot (camera shot) to watch in detail. Thank you for the video.
+bongojim420 you need a girlfriend man!
+bongojim420 Delighted! I'm a dude!
+bongojim420 I'm trans-gender, let's be friends!
Perfect Form....I'll say !!
The arrows have wrong fletchings on them. Recurve bows especially should always use feathered fletchings over rubber.
So, what's with holding the string with just 3 fingers and not 4, or even 2?
Awesome
I love archery
thank you
btw ,what do I release? the bow or the arrow??
What the hell, your stance is whatever you're comfortable and and can shoot well in
Your skill ceiling will be higher if you have "proper" form.
I'm here because of Arrow.
same here guy😂
well i know you. dont know from where
Ya me too
Same
me too
Yes, it does take training before you can take force for yourself. Because if you do it incorrectly, you risk injury or death of the other.
you should actully put on finger above the arrow and two on the bottom
10 seconds in and already have a question: how to set up a shot in a non-practice range? from a tree stand or something?
"Perfect Form" WHY THE HECK WAS HER ELBOW POINTING TO THE CEILING! YOU NEED TO BE A STRAIGHT LINE!
It's funny how everyone has something different to say negatively about this video and many comments contradict the other comments - it's like there are multiple ways to shoot an arrow...
+Landon Lewis aggreed =) with nearly every culture on earth having thier own form of a bow, each one has thier own style of holding the bow, string, and arrow .
+Landon Lewis there are too many of "perfect" ways to shoot a bow or to pull the string there are at least 20 different forms according to the culture, the function and the type of bow, it is not the same for this olympic bow than for a recurve or a modern compound bow for example.
there is lol
I have never made one of those mistakes and I have been shooting bows for 2 years
you must be able to shoot from any position (above head, regular, at waist) fuck proper form... if you cant be fluid with any weapon then there's a problem
Like first learning to drive I would get proper form as well as accuracy down first then hell you can shoot which ever way you like. I now steer car with my foot.
Proper form is a basic way to understand the whole point of something. After we know and can do the proper form, we can improvise our form.
Face 6171, you are so stupid you have to have a good from in any thing you do. If you don’t you will always have bad from and you want be able to hit the target. With good from you can be fluid from any place you like.
sheldon wight maybe you should check the the fastest and the best archer in the world Lars Anderson... 11 arrows in the sky before the first one hit the ground the guiy is fast and a good shot with NO and i mean NO PERFECT FORM... SO DONT BASE MY INTELLIGENCE ON YOUR INABILITY TO DO SOMETHING THAT I CAN DO. STUDY THEN YOULL FIND OUT HOW STUPID YOUR COMMENT IS.... LOOK UP Lars Anderson THEN TALK TO ME
face6171 Speed a precision is 2 different things, you don't want to go into a Olympic archery with a bad form and shoot 11 fast arrows that doesn't give you good points, that would be pointless.. Rushing a shot isn't what archery is about unless you want to show off some pointless skill or you are planning to travel back to the medieval times.
Edit: With a recurve bow you want to hit a target that is 6.1 cm is diameter on up to a 70 meter distance, so drop your caps.
👍 Anyway, thank you 👍 it was really helpful 👍
Her bow arm is hyper extended. Notice the inside of the elbow is facing up.
How to hold the arrow in 3 fingers..?
When to release...?
Her hand is not too low on the string, she was probably using the String walking aiming technique.
pinkie and the thumb, the pinkie and the thumb, the pinkie and the thumb, the pinkie and the thumb, hahahahaha wtf xD im dying!
i am a beginner.. Thanks man...
Satan i thought satan had other ways to shoot things
first person that gave real good advice. but should feet be ABSOLUTLY parrelel or right foot just slightly knfront
both are fine
Amount of fingers on the string isnt that important to be 3, using 4 is bad but u could also use 2.
What bow is that?
i agree with Ax
I use 2 fingers, is that right?
This video is helpful for beginners but I have 1 problem. You do not hold the bow tight at any point, you have a firm but gentle grip and you do not hold the bow tight after releasing the arrow, you let it 'swing' back at you. When you hold the bow tight after release you put to much pressure onto the limbs of the bow and it will result in damage of the bow.
what do you mean by swing back at you?
MrTansk You must have a finger sling, technically he means that you let the bow swing on it own, it "jumps" out of your hand and then you "sit" it and then as it swings back up to you, you grab it before it hits your face.
When I mean sit it, you make the loser sign but then you point it towards the floor so it look like an up-side down L
You forgot rule number one to beginner archery:
You must have an arrow in your bow as you draw or you risk damaging the bow. The arrow acts as a counter shock to the tension of the draw. If there is no arrow in your draw as you release the shock goes to your bow instead causing damage.
I made that mistake. I didn't realize that arrows were actually needed to pull a bow.
I think you might have missed that they did not let the string go without an arrow. Or, you misunderstood the principle. It is alright to draw a bow back without an arrow in it. It is not alright to 'dry fire' a bow, meaning you draw back and then release without an arrow nocked. Pulling back and then slowly letting the string return does not damage your bow. Dry firing might. They did not dry fire in this video.
Stop hitting your arm by using a arm guard I have. Done archery for years now and I use arm guards
reginoalatdaisy been shooting 45 years and never used a arm guard.
When shooting with bow without a shelf, plastic vanes can cause nasty cuts to your hand when using heavier bows. Bowhand is the hand that holds the bow, silly.
what kinda of rest is on her bow? i havent been able to find it in local stores and want to buy one online
it's a Winchester
when he said 'body alignment' i was like 'oh goodie...'
that was perfect form Vicky
What arrow rest is this I've got the same now?
with all fingers below the arrow like that you would have no control is moving around
i put two fingers on the string is that okay?
His foot position is way different to how I was told to do it in my coaching session.
Palpac some coaches do it differently, don't worry about it! the stance in this video is shown how normally a beginner would be taught
He forgot one major mistake. You use just your fingertips to pull the string back to prevent string roll.
Now we know where Green Arrow & Hawk Eye get their training from.
Learn the difference between parallel and perpendicular old chap.
***** Lol I think he meant to say parallel with the bow.
Why did he keep saying parallel to the target? I believe he meant your feet and shoulders should be perpendicular...I think he meant perpendicular "Common mistakes when recording a tutorial video" xD
Thunderheart2186 I think he mean the target as if it were a coin rolling, the part would actually shoot would be the sides, but I think he mean the way it would roll, if that makes any sense.
what he was saying was Actually correct the target face and the feet all Parallel I.....II
So why are all of her fingers over an inch below the nock point?
He seems excited about archery
