finally !!! some longbow's 🙏💪👍👍 So good to finally see some REAL archery ... archery as archery was meant to be ... No ding, bling, blong and what have we 🤷♂…just a "stick", a string and a wooden arrow… 💪 THAT's archery 👍 Many many thanks for showing and please keep up the good work 👌
We will keep it up. Longbow has usually had the lowest participation class at our Nationals, but they had a decent number this time and we are trying to boost it up. Hope we have some at the outdoor Nationals in July also. At least enough so we can broadcast some more finals for you of "real archery" 😉🤣
@@ArcheryTVIceland can you use turkish in these comps or do you need to use a longbow and why? like if i turned up with my 40" horse bow and shot a 29 each round do i win?
@@ArcheryTVIceland do they not teach how to realise proply in Iceland or something? come to any local scottish archery club theres gonna be a handfull in each club that can out shoot these guys. hard facts. boggin really needs to work on his realise i bet hed be 1000x better. hes obviously accurate why does he pluck? its a day one archery lesson. the most basic of the basics. io can tell his misses without looking at his shot. its pure obvious. stop plucking bro. pass it on. if he needs me to teach him i will no issues
@@ArcheryTVIcelandoh nice. what about a modern laminate made from fibreglass. i think thats what there shooting? or would i need to get a horn laminate. ive put a depo dont for one as we speak. its about 3months away. youll see this blind man next year. as long as life doesnt get in the way.
Its not a western or English style, but I believe it meets the definition of a long bow as the string doesn't touch the limbs except at their attachment.
I am Korean and I naturally shoot traditional Korean bow. Our bows are called Asiatic composite bows to be exact, although some Westerners call them horse bow. What that dude is using is definitely not even a horse bow. It is not exactly a long bow either. So I am convinced he made it himself.
12 metres????? That's 36 feet...ish. I shoot proper longbows....as in English longbows. I could get 6 arrows in that Gold from twice that distance. I tend to shoot six arrows per end as it were. They also are closing one eye and seem to be sighting along the arrow which is OK at a short distance but no good for a long distance and certainly not instinctive shooting. Dave.
*Team iF Akur =* _Matej_ & (compact recurve) Horse Bow / _Lena_ & longbow *Team BF Boginn =* _Alessia_ & Long Bow / _Matthias_ & long bow 0:25 ... *Matej* , is called a BOWYER (a person who makes Bows.) 0:58 .. Bare Bow / Traditional Bow / Long bow mixture = instinctive shooting. 3:15..Tilted bow / Canted Bow commonly used by hunters , who stalk and stop to shoot animals. 6:09...LMAO...Yes , its called a *Back Quiver* not a *Hip Quiver* or a *Pocket Quiver*
No its only 12m. There has generally been very low participation at Nationals in longbow so it is an unofficial competition (meaning that we award medals but not National titles or records). We are trying to boost the number participants in the class, so we are running a bit wild with the classification of what counts as a longbow and the distances to boost participation. It should not effect the oucome much since the athlete that is the most accurate still wins 😉. There is no ruleset for longbow in target archery within WA so we can play around with it hehe
@@0ooTheMAXXoo0 If we do that then the people in the Viking reenactment clubs don't want to participate. So we lose 90% of the participation 😅 (They are the majority of longbow shooters in the country).
the only person who does anything resembling archery is this young woman in pink pants. The others should start the basics of archery from scratch, especially this other young woman, who seems to me to be very awkward with her bow: at this distance sending arrows with a gap of 40cm should make her question her way of shooting.
Aha... And what is your definition of a longbow? 3 out of those 4 bows would be easily classified as a longbow for tournaments, despite being American flat bows.
@carlc.4714 English longbows are "D" shaped. My point was that a long flatbow is a long bow, not a Longbow. Although, at the end of the day, if you enjoy shooting "whatever" then who cares? 😁😁 Dave.
@@davesheppard8797 There have been many types of longbows around before the now typical English longbow shape developed, and the term is by no means exclusive to them. Some people associate the term "longbow" with "D-shaped and horn tipped yew bow", "loosely resembling an English warbow", or even the modern American longbows. From my personal central European perspective, a "traditional" longbow is a bow that is probably >=90% of its users height in length, is not a recurve, and can be either D shaped, round-ish or flat, depending on the specific type and/or material used. A Holmegaard bow is a longbow. An English longbow is a longbow, too. But it is by far not the fist type that comes to mind with that term. If one wants to single out English style longbows, they must be called exactly that. Some competition classes do that, but they are usually called somewhat along "English longbow". The 'normal' longbow classes can be quite liberal, allowing anything from a glorified broomstick to a modern laminated American hunting longbow with shelf (which is rather flat also ^^).
Actually these bows are not that hard to shoot. Especially that close to the target. Competition brings added pressure but a longbow is easy to shoot. They just atre not shooting well. I shot longbows and recurves. Without sights.
@@raginroadrunner Olympic archery is boring. Traditional archery, no sights or stupid crap like that is where it's at. Gloves feel much better to shoot with.
What the f-bomb? "This is called a back-quiver, isn't it?" - "I don't know"... And the regular mentioning of GoT. Very sad commenting. BTW: I noticed, that especially in the long bow disciplines, the form of the archers is often times very bad. And it is mostly the finals I am watching. I know, your nerves are weak in a final. But for example the form and the shooting of the woman from team Boginn not very good to say the least. Are these the best archers of the country (?) or what is going on?
Their whole association has the membership numbers of what is a mid-sized club in other countries. And they had double-digit member numbers just one decade or so ago. They also seem to have some silly weapon laws, making it difficult for youth to train. But at least archery seems to be on the rise over there now, give them some time to get more professional. ;-)
finally !!! some longbow's 🙏💪👍👍
So good to finally see some REAL archery ... archery as archery was meant to be ...

Lena's form is so elegant...its a pleasure to watch. Good shooting.
3:12 the commentator really exposes himself as a newbie to traditional archery.
just wondering isnt the guy in team IF AKUR using a horse bow kind of bow, why is this still call longbow mixed team
I was wondering the same thing
It's definitely not a longbow.

I don't like shooting 20 yards or less. Always hitting the nocks on the arrows. Ruin too many arrows. Too close. @@davesheppard8797
Pięknie pozdrawiam islandię
Fred Bear always canted his bow. I do also. It opens up your sight picture and gives a better view of your target.
Howard Hill also.
only 12m? oh lawd
Yep! 😂😂😂.

longbow got shelving?
What distances are they shooting at?
12m, 60cm target face.
Its 18m
@@NathanChisholm041 No it is not. It usually is 18m, 40cm, but here it is 12m

@@NathanChisholm041 This was 100% new to me too, even though I shoot since 2004 ;). They have it different for longbows there.
20 yards?
12meters, 60cm face.
You need to tilt the bow when your shelf is not center bow

Actually at 12 meters this is poor shooting.

Everyone needs to work on their form. Not bad but improvement is needed. Use a tab and not a glove. I admire your interest in traditional archery.
Glove is far superior to a tab, and more traditional.
