My First Time Shooting Archery at 70m in Over 3 Years! | My Score was Surprising
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 พ.ย. 2020
- I haven't shot archery at 70 meters since 2017 at @WorldArcheryTV Worlds in Mexico City. Bringing the shakes and the struggle to you on camera for comedic affect of course.... My score was quite shocking despite the struggle through the measly 48 arrows I shot.

That was a REALLY fun one to watch, seriously. Really enjoyed the down-to-earth and candid willingness to share your first scoring round in years with us. Archery is something you performed at the highest level for years, IMO, the muscle memory and deep understanding of your shot and gear that comes from that, it makes sense to me you found ways to compensate for any rust that set in from the 3-year gap and got a score you were happy with. As always, keep up the great work! Looking forward to future content! I will post a couple content suggestions in discord.
Been enjoying it and will continue to expand and produce more shooting content for sure!
Great stuff Jake. How about a follow-up where you critique your own shooting, like a self-coaching session?
Yeah I am concerned about when he said "little slow on the release" those small tips could save years of frustration
Beside being informative, this could be a great comedy gag as Jake rips on this “other jake” 😂😂😂
I know that was a hell of a struggle Jake, but I found it fascinating and instructive. Hearing and seeing you deconstruct your process as you work back through things was very informative. It also emphasised just how difficult shooting from that distance really is. As out of practice as you are, you're still hitting the 9s and 10s most of the time, even while shaking like a puppy, critiquing your own form, worrying about the camera and presentation, and asking for content suggestions. I can't even see a target 70m away haha.
I'd love to see more of these videos, to be honest, seeing you rebuild your skills I find to be a very down to earth way to see what to do right and wrong. Excellent video dude!
I enjoyed watching the shot...Listening to your thoughts post shot...And dealing with the fatigue...Thanks
The thought process was pretty informative.
What is the poundage of the boe
This was one of my favorite videos so far. I love the super-techie stuff, but here, rather than showing off, you demonstrated a champion's thought process in context, and it was a great learning experience.
Love to watch you shoot more ends like this with your commentary.
Absolutely loved seeing this! Can’t wait for more and to see different equipment! Keep it up Jake!
I'd just like to see you shoot and talk about your shot process. Talk about what you did wrong and how you're going to fix it.
Really enjoyed this. Great to hear your shot process thoughts/reactions.
Big stud! We love the videos man, keep em' coming! Great shooting
I will watch this over and over. Great video. It was amazing to watch your muscle memory kick in and the struggle.
This is one of your most inspirational videos.....you didn't edit out the fatigue or the times that you had to let down.
Olympic recurve archery is Hard Work. Thanks for the video!!!
You are so positive and inspiring. We love your videos, and thank you for them! Cheers from fans from Poland!
I'd enjoy just seeing a video like this every now and again. Nice to just see you shoot can be as informative as the tutorials!
Love it, i learned we always can get back having teh elvel of experience- do what you love !
that was fun to watch!! Thank you for sharing.....
Love this video so much!! Thanks for shooting & showing it! It really puts my own experiences into context and helps me to understand my own shortfalls and inadequacies and how they relate to practice, experience, and the whole shooting process. I mean, you now, and me at my best in a shoot-off, you'd still be kicking my arse, but seeing you as a former Olympic champion experience the same struggles with the bow weight, the same struggles with fatigue, or just the need to stop a shot and try to reconnect with the process, it really helps with understanding the value of putting in the work.
Thanks so much for sharing!
Amazing what you can achieve after such a long break, impressive. Would like to see you set up and tune the others bows for repeating the 70 yard shoot, and you giving us insights into your mental processes at each end while you’re shooting. Great content Jake. 👍
I haven't touched my bow since February. You've motivated me to mount it up again.
Great stuff, Jake! I always enjoy your videos, especially these where you're shooting.
Just found your channel, and have watched hours now. So much good info and help for a beginner like me. Good to see you just enjoying the process here. Just want to say a big thank you for all the great help you give.
Loved watching you shoot. And the best part for me is that you were reminding yourself and telling yourself off for simple things that I think I should remember all the time! So that was pleasing that I shouldn't expect to get each shot perfect, and go back to my shot routine like you did. Awesome content Jake. Please don't splice together videos of you shooting the different bows. Keep them all individual and feedback like this one!
This was a great video, Jake. Thank you for showing your process and for being vulnerable, that takes strength and guts. It was great to see you shoot 70 meter Olympic recurve again! I will admit I am secretly hoping you might return to 70 meter competition, I know I'm not the only one rooting for you!
Great shooting after such a long pause! Thank You for sharing this.
As always jake, top video watched here in the uk, thanks for the running commentary, always helps to know your thoughts and something to relate too
Thank you so much Jake! I'm new to Olympic style recurve archery. For the past 3 months I've been shooting, I've been looking for a teacher, but the pandemic has prevented lessons in my area, so you have been my main source of information on shooting and tuning. So thank you so much for videos like this that show your process and methods! There are others here in my situation who I have referred to your channel.
教練好～我來自台灣，喜歡射箭很久了。最近開始練習射裸弓，都是看您的頻道來修正自己的姿勢與觀念的，非常感謝！
It was fun to watch you shoot, see the struggles but continuation, all with the Benny Hill music! Thanks, Jake! I've said for a long time, a bad day at archery beats a great day at work, every time!
Wayne
Wel done mate. You pushed through the tiredness with the focus of a champion. Thanks for your awesome output. This barebow archer really appeciates it.
Well done!
Great effort, Mate... and thanks as usual for your honest and in the moment commentary, it's humbling and inspiring to watch and learn from. I think a number of us have already mentioned the self-coaching and self critique on each shot... it's something that we all do, but no-one is putting it out there as you're starting to do with this video... that along with the a bit of thought process would be great. J
Jake, good to see that you are a human just like us. Thanks for sharing it.
I feel your sore back! This is what's waiting for me once the ranges will be back open after the current corona lockdown here in Germany. Getting back up to 72 arrows without shaking will be hard to do! For my own archery 2020 is a lost year, with months of forced shooting pauses.
Unlike at your place you practically can't shoot at home here....
Keep doing more of this with the sequence,the angles and showing you can just be a regular dude who’s good at archery.
Big fan...
Kudos to you for coming up with a lot of good content. I'm learning a lot from your videos. Looking forward to your reviews of different equipment particularly those in the entry and intermediate levels as these are interest points for people like me who's planning to take up the sport. Cheers!
I concur with Ryan Bon...I really enjoyed watching and hearing you working through the physical and mental aspects of shooting especially after a long sabbatical....your channel has come a long way...cheers
I'm in Atlanta area and new to these videos and find them VERY informative! Thanks Jake
Really enjoyed this video Jake more please
🤯 amazing how well you shoot even after 3 years! I'm off on elbow tendon injury (non archery related ironically) so I know I'll feel your struggle when getting back at it. A video on how you would get back from time off from injury or just time out like you have been, to get back to top form and your process to do so would be amazing. As always great content and humbling 😊
One of your best and most enjoyable videos,,love your thoughts on what you do,keep it up,,thanks
Thanks Jake. Really enjoyed this. My first time back shooting 70 just on 2 years ago after a 23 year break was a shock to the system as well!! Looking forward to seeing more shooting content. As far as content suggestions, you made some comments during the shoot critiquing your form. I think it would be interesting to see a follow up video where you expand on the errors you identified and how you would go about correcting them.
Hi Jake, love your channel and videos. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Germany.
Nice place you have out there. The shooting line under a nice tree is cool. Literally. It was great to see you shooting and hear you honest comments on the way. Hope some more videos like this will come with different equipment, oh, and what spotting scope is that. With that eyepiece diameter you must have quite a bright view down the range.
Great video! I think you shot fantastic after such a long break.
Nice shooting Jake, You are always an inspiration.
Please more shooting videos. It’s really fun to watch and also educated. Thanks for videos :)
Best video you've ever done .. to see inside your head and see/hear the technical faults and your internal chatter is really instructive .. Shows I'm not the only one , Also seeing the shakes as you tire .. KNow that feeling all to well .
Cheers.
Hi Jake, i'm a new comer to the sport of archery 1 year + . I've watched most of your videos and without doubt they are best out there. However in my opinion i think this video is one of the best you've done, there's no substitute for shooting on camera, really good stuff and brilliant watching, 3 year gap, wow. i think i'll go back to fishing!!!
One my favourite of your videos. Fun and interesting. Great job.
I love seeing a master at his craft! Looks like all that muscle memory kicked right in.
I enjoyed this video tremendously.
Man I had a great time watching you perform for the first time since Mexico City and I would love to see you again. Is it gonna be on your back yard or in the podium it doesn't matter. Much love
So, how many people here actually had the theme song for the Benny Hill Show going through there head after Jake said que the Benny Hill music?
Wasn’t aware Americans knew of Benny Hill at all.
Great video mate
Great to see you shooting 70 again Jake!
Jake I think you are one of the more courageous athletes I have ever seen. Letting us see your thoughts, your pride in your sport, and how hard you want to meet your standards after a long layoff is remarkable.
After watching this I skipped over a few lanes at the range today and shot longer than I ever have with my little 30 lb barebow. I'll be sending you a bill for the lost arrows >.> Just kidding, it felt good to stretch myself.
Enjoyable video!!! At age 60 shooting 150 arrows, outdoors 3 times a wk from my Olympic Recurve, I'm tired. Lol
I think I have watched nearly all of your videos and this one is for me the best so far. Absolutely what I'm looking for. Just shooting a short round with your thoughts on each shot as commentary. I'd like to hear more on what you were focussing on during a particular shot (is it consistent? is it the end of the follow through? is it messed up when you get the shakes etc?) and how it played out. But honestly just more of the same please. Superb content. Inside my head on the shooting line is a much less lonely place now;) Many thanks.
Nice work. Your struggle with the strength kinda reminds me of myself sometimes. But even if I'm well trained and don't struggle I miss about 30 rings to your result. It's good to see that after years of training, not everything is lost during a break.
Thanks for another great video. Awesome first score after such a long break. Amazing that you aren't distracted by the busy road, or an engine starting up half way through. I wish I could focus like that, presume it's mental training.
Experience. Mind over matter. People used to honk as they drove by while I was at full draw when I shot a lot.
Loved this video. You did better on this day than I did on my best day ever by a bit! That was impressive. I would like to see you repeat this experiment with a intermediate price range setup, and then with a budget option. That would be cool. Or shoot using a more budget option bow vs a club archer with a more expensive bow.
This helped me a great deal. I dug myself out of very deep target panic hole finally after many years. I am shooting better than I ever have but at 60 yoa and not ever having great upper body strength, I was feeling like I was the only one struggling with getting shots off and beating myself up for it. I have watched your videos on exercises and weight training. I’m trying to implement some of it especially to improve my left shoulder stability which is where I break down. However it is difficult because I suffer from old back, neck, and shoulder injuries and I have to go at it easy. My posture has been poor too and I’m working on fixing that too. I also appreciate the self commentary. Seeing your self talk though diagnostic, is a lot more self positive than mine. I am also working on your suggestions for the mental aspects. I am not a recurve shooter but all of it still applied to the things I am struggling with. Well done sir.
its a long shot but my suggestion is to invite brady ellison and have a OR with him
Hey Jake. Take us to a Field range one of these days and perhaps some running commentary on your shooting at different distances and angles. Oh, and leave the sight at home. Go BB!!
I dig watching your vidz Jake. This one for instance, coupled with the Open Stance/radial draw explanation that watched several weeks ago,. confirm my self coached shot process decisions as I develop. LOL That and my improving accuracy. Thanx
You are looking good Jake!
I learned from the best!
Excellent stuff, great to see you shooting Olympic recurve 😁
You make it look so easy men...still with the shakes and all that !
Very cool vid Jake, would you consider doing product reviews shooting the 70m round? It's cool watching you shoot your high end stuff, how about some intermediate/beginner limbs and risers? Thanks, keep it up.
Ive been watching your videos since you were at chula vista. Your humility,and deep understanding,and love for the sport of archery is awesome. You started from the bottom,and made it to the highest level of the sport. Too bad that the powers that be decided on making the other guy the poster child of usa archery, he seems like such a tool.
Nothing better than seeing an old man shake, make flappy releases and throw their bow about. Pretty sure you can hear your old joints creaking mate!!!! made me smile to see you shooting mate :)
Oh I felt every creak for sure!
Great to see you shooting again Jake.
Would love to know what you prefer vane wise.
👍😎
Thanks for making awesome videos Jake! Love from india
I find it comical when you apologize for your scores.
I couldn't hit the backstop from 70 with my setup. Unless it was just luck!
Love the videos!
Class is obviously permanent 👍🎯
Fun to see the fatigue part. I play bowling as well as shoot bow, and people can not fattom that it could be hard work in these sports.
Really enjoyed this video though I do not shoot Olympic recurve. The comment about shooting strong at the target is also true for compound. It can be amazing what you can get away with when you go strong at the target. I sometimes put a piece of masking tape on the inside of the upper riser with the words "Shoot Strong" just to remind myself. Your videos are the only subscription that I have the bell enabled on.
Really appreciated this video, I have noticed how demanding switching back and forth from shooting barebow to olympic recurve can be. I find the Olympic recurve to be very exacting on my form whereas barebow feels like it can tolerate a little more 'slop'. I chalk it up to maybe my subconscious making more adjustments automatically with barebow. Thanks for all your content, have really appreciated how informative it has been.
Interesting. For me the opposite is true. Shooting barebow for a while frees me up and transfers some relaxed form to olympic when I switch back
It was interesting to watch the different angles. Congratulations! I guess it's like riding a bike? haha Keep it up.
Awesome
We need you. Back on the team
Hi Jake, great video. Good to see a real pratice shoot with all the bad shots included. Makes it much more relatable to us amateurs. You mentioned the bow is tuned, perhaps you do a basic tuning setup using your spare bows just like buying it all new from shop from scratch. Obviously you dont need to go through everything in great detail as you already covered most of it, but just applying all your advice for real in one basic tuning setup, eg, nocking point, centreshot, button stiffness, braceheight, bareshaft tuning, walkback. Then a fine tuning video as a follow up would be great!
He's got a full series on that: th-cam.com/video/R1K0BMILEQQ/w-d-xo.html
Awesome video. It doesn't matter what your score is but your honesty and selfless dedication towards the sport deserves a big salute.Big regards to your continous effort to educate us, keep us busy thinking. Could see you have difficulty with the bow poundage, would the result be the same if you shot on lower poundage in the same enviornment?
Hey Jake, thank you for putting all of this out here. Out of interest, do you have any exercises that are specific to helping strengthen a weak front shoulder?
Love the olympic recurve stuff but please don't forget about the barebow!
Content: How to go about shooting again after a long layoff. Like, isn't it a good idea to drop weight and shoot at an 80cm face at 30 or 50m (for injury prevention, form, etc)? Loved your 4th end in particular - great to see that even Olympians are human! Super video, keep it up Jake!
why did you have such a break Jake? do you get burnout? any tips on how to prevent it? Great video :) I love your honesty and open nature, its very refreshing. thank you for sharing
well done come back jake
This video was realy great. One of your most entertaining. I would like you to make a videocoaching of your self using this video. I also like to see you shoot 50 meter barebow. Greatings from Sweden.
I'd be interested in how you deal with wind from different directions - headwind, tailwind, left-to-right, right-to-left. Love the Benny Hill reference!
th-cam.com/video/UiVSxCU7NTI/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/OZvdFdByEUg/w-d-xo.html
Two videos to start with on aiming in the wind.
Great shooting!
Would be interesting to see you shoot a 38# bow or so and see how the results compare.
Awesome to see you challenge yourself!
If you’re looking for some content to cover, I’d like to put something in the pool as well.
I’ve been an indoor olympic recurve shooter for many years due to the lack of accessible outdoor 70m archery ranges.
I’m doing indoor competitions in my region but I’m aspiring to do outdoor archery. Until I find a good place to consistently go and train outside at distance, would you have any tips that can help us indoor shooters to prepare for outdoor shooting?
Hi, sorry for the lateness of watching and comment. thanks for the video. this is video will help me (others) with their shooting. i only started this year and just attempted 60m. which brings me to my question (or future video). binoculars what should i look for. eg. brands, distances etc. keep it up. thanks
Great stuff! Enjoy your honesty. I’m an older guy, 61 and I get fatigued pretty fast, if I don’t practice every day. Wondering what your thoughts are, about keeping going, when it starts to turn to crap? Can you do more harm than good if you’re making bad shots?
Still got it
I enjoyed that .
Hi Jake! I‘m really flashed by what you are capable to do after such a long time! Really really impressive!
So what about making a video about arrow spine. I mean what would you define as a good/bad arrow in relation to tolerances of a static spine. And how much does it really affects the score if the arrows are not let’s say perfect. And what are your thoughts about static and dynamic spine.
Second idea of mine was to make a video about shooting field archery. To tell people what it really is, how much fun it is to shoot and what to look at 😉
Greetz and stay safe
Nice back tension in the final shots.
Your worst end was better than my best ever. Great to see you back at Olympic Recurve Jake. Hadn’t realised Benny Hill had found fame across the pond (I’m a Brit) but, I suppose your own famous comic, Donald Trump, has found great fame here so, why not?
Great video.
Now you've been shooting barebow for a while, how about shooting the new 50m barebow round?
Seeing you struggle to hold long enough to take a shot, looks like you could do with five pounds lower draw weight?
