I've seen some INSANE stuff with longbow, there are genuinely some archers that shoot double this distance and only get inside the red with LONGBOW, it gives me shivers!
Every American Archery club has a Spanky. The guy that shoots only barebow or some expensive trad one-Piece, has a military boonie or bucket hat with lapel pins everywhere, nice as hell, and just smokes everyone in club.
@@landiemeyer1913 Ummm..... No. We wait for promoting traditional archery. But they can't cash in so much by selling this riser, and that plunger and another rest... So they probably won't...
My god I can recognise that this is actually a bow! No fancy weights or stabilisers sticking every possible directions. More, please moreeeee :) And I just loved the cheerful mood here.
I don't get why it's called bare bow... Call me crazy, but shouldn't a bare bow be just that? Bare? No rest. No stabilizer. Just a bow shot from the shelf? It's a wild and crazy idea I know.
Those shots are hard enough to make as is. I shoot a traditional horsebow without shelf or any aids and have to tell ya hitting a 20x20 square from 35 meters takes skill and practice.
Open compund... 11... 11... 11 Barebow... 10... 7.... 9 Theres more excitement in barebow, but it takes a special person too shoot a 132 there at Lancaster
I shoot field and Old English clout, barebow is the way I came into Archery, school gyms and sports fields basic Archery. Love the concept of barebow competition, you are only as good as your form, under pressure archery shows your own self how to shoot your own way when relaxed. Real showdown stuff, golden bow medieval tournaments maybe?
Why do you need a women's class in this day and age of equality? Feminists have been very vocal about the fact that they can do everything as good as men can... better even.... Everybody should compete the in same event against each other equally regardless of age, sex, or gender identity. Anything less is lowering the bar, and encouraging and enabling inequality.
I don't think indoors it matters all that much, but outdoors it certainly does. Women usually shoot lower poundage than men, which makes it a lot harder to consistently shoot at 90m/100yd (the longest distance in outdoor competitions), and they normally shoot slightly shorter distances instead.
Great to watch, up here in Canada a reporter or announcer would be told to shut up for interrupting the concentration of the archers during competition.
Everyone is getting so hyped and astonished, but barebow is how bows have been shot for tens of thousands of years. There's nothing crazy about it. Try it out long enough for your brain to understand it and you'll probably love it.
I wonder if you could take a technical point from professional Darts on TV - Split screen. Show the shooter and the target side by side instead of cutting back and forth... maybe?
Great tournament Lancaster. Great to see Fishers sportsmanship too. It's really admirable. I can't help but be curious about what kind of accuracy they'd get over longer distances, like say 50 metres. Fantasic archery.
The top guys at 50 meters on an 80cm face are round 580-640 in practice and 540-600 on good weather competition days. For the 122cm it's 660-680 and 640-670 respectively
Still plungers, CNC risers and finger tab, tho. I find amusing the needs to critize compounds or olympics; a self bow archer could do the same... No need to blame others which enjoy different ways of archery.
It was a comment on how well they were shooting without all the modern equipment on their bows . The statement that aren't archery is you talking you are pissed about something and just want to pick a fight grow up!
Only thing I didn't like was the structure; that is...Spanky was shooting and winning, but anyone who shoots trad can tell you your consistency starts to wane after a couple dozen arrows, and the competition was fresh. By the time Michael got up there Spanky was probably feeling the fatigue, big time.
He probably has, if I ever got as good as him I'd find it hard to ignore the competitive side of the sport. Alot of these competitions get little media attention so he could of been in hundreds and we wouldn't know unless he told us, kinda sad really.
Oi oi oi. Good job mate, made Australia proud. Time to get the old recurve out. I'm shooting bare tomorrow like when I was a kid. Compound can take a backseat for a while.
The additional weight help offset the weight drag on the string and the disparity between the centre of balance on the bow and the drawpoint. With string walking it has a greater distance too. Arrow length has a role too but it's all about equalizing the weight balance without rods.
I agree,that's why hit thy dislike button! The shooting is great,but I quit watching only a third of the way because of all the nonsensecal chatter.....sounded more like a commercial than a tournament!!!
I learned archery with a bare bow hunt with a bare bow. where do I sign up? I practiced relentlessly until it became second nature. I could put 4 out six in a match book at 20 yrds. When I was 16-17. I pull my bow out now like once a year. I can hold easily a 10 inch circle. Where is this competition?
Today is the last day of early registration for the Lancaster Classic. It will be held at spooky nook near Lancaster PA. Go to Lancasterarcherysupply.com scroll down click on the classic and check out the registration. Hope to see you there. Happy shooting. 💪
I really can’t stand the forced enthusiasm. Archery doesn’t need to become the Steve Wilkos Show to appeal to wider audience. I’ve been waiting for the barebow video from the Lancaster Classic. It’s odd not to see Demmer in the finals! It’s nice that barebow is getting more and more archers showing up to compete. With any luck, maybe barebow will attract some sponsors to support this discipline of the sport.
Anti-olympic huh? Strictly speaking string walking serves as training wheels. Both olympic archers and barebow have a single point of reference; the arrow point or sight point. Barebow though tweak their shot by adjusting angle.
As a weapon even by todays standards, the bow still stacks it well against the gun, a little less noisy but none the less just as deadly. I look at it that if ever simething really bad happened, we might very well be rellying on this to bring home the food. I am from the U.K, many years ago, but I think its the only country where there is a law tbat has never been removed, that being every man and boy above the age of sixteen should proctoice on sunday after church for two hours , although clearly no longer enforced I think it kept a ready made army skilled in their art always ready for battle, plus as i say it kept their j eye in for hunting all the year round. No fancy weights or balances just a bare bow and arrow. Most archers even today, make a lot of their own gear, maybe no the bow so much but arrows are certainly tended to by the archer himself, so it stands to reason that these archers understand their equipment very well. Ever a simple trick of spinning the arrow on the tip of the finger just to watch if its in anyway bent, is a simple trick but serves a purpose. I think in fact that this has got to be one of the oldest sports going and good for the mind in as much as you are never shooting against someone else, you are shooting against you last score with the idea of improvment all the time.
One year later and your words are coming true. it's looking like all people should definitely learn the barebow as we all may be hunting for our food very soon. I have bought one recurve for myself. I have made bows for everyone in the family and have bunches of arrows made up. Homemade shafts, broadheads and feathers made from the wings of a big big bird that looked like a bobcat got it. I figured it's better to have honed these skills well before anything hits the fan.
I don't know who that guy in blue is with the mic asking the competitors questions but he is good. Very nice event. I live in PA I hope I can come down one of these days.
I shoot a recurve bow and recently tried barebow shooting, I hit everything except the targets....and I absolutely loved it.
@οὐτόπος :/, nah bro, every bow, into olympic to bare to compound, each one is a real bow, with different difficulties.
Join The Barebow Project on Facebook and it will help you out quite a bit.
I got a bow and shoot backyard at around 30 yards from time to time, its a takedown with an arrow rest, is this considered barebow?
NaCl Sigma think so

More Barebow and Traditional PLEASE!!!
And modernlong!
English longbow
Nonsense. We need more shiny, rainbow colored bows with antennas and doohickeys sticking out of every side. That’s real archery.
Watches Olympic shooting, what a snooze fest, this is much better
I've seen some INSANE stuff with longbow, there are genuinely some archers that shoot double this distance and only get inside the red with LONGBOW, it gives me shivers!
Barebow.... Best archery division for show, Anything can happen
Komennya master nih....
Every American Archery club has a Spanky.
The guy that shoots only barebow or some expensive trad one-Piece, has a military boonie or bucket hat with lapel pins everywhere, nice as hell, and just smokes everyone in club.
That's the rules.
he looks violently nice
Spanks everyone*
Mine is full of them
Spanky is a class act. One of the most genuinely nice folks you will ever meet. And yes, he smokes everyone around here.
Thank you Lancaster and Hoyt for sponsoring this tournament! Loved every nail biting second!
Barebow, Longbow and Trad generally is the only Archery I'm interested in ... legit and as pure as it comes.
Love the Breaks and Chats with these Bowmen...Good share !!
Well done Michael! I hope the sport gets more sponsorship in the future. A true challenge for any archer!
As a complete novice I really appreciate this upload.
Thank you.
The highest of skills and the nerves to overcome just show why this is catching on....amazing shots.
Lancaster archery thanks for all your hard work for promoting bare bow.A lot of people been waiting for that.
I totally agree
@@landiemeyer1913
Ummm..... No. We wait for promoting traditional archery.
But they can't cash in so much by selling this riser, and that plunger and another rest...
So they probably won't...
Lancaster does it the best, great job, thanks Rob, JD3, and John Wert for representing heavy in Barebow!
I've just taken up Barebow, this was great to watch. Thanks.
Love watching this each year, even as a recurve archer.
My god I can recognise that this is actually a bow! No fancy weights or stabilisers sticking every possible directions. More, please moreeeee :) And I just loved the cheerful mood here.
Well done! A great pleasure to watch this Barebow Finals! Greetings from Frankfurt / Germany!
Can we get LONGBOW please. Love these barebow competitions.
I would love to see this. Longbow is my favorite kind of bow.
Thanks for this barebow only video!
These guys rock, a great inspiration for us old guys
Thank you recommended!
So wholesome, I'm such a proud Aussie :')
Well done Micheal your a legend mate 👍

Glad to see a video devoted to Barebow! Love it!
I’d rather watch this then open compound any day
Any day , all day
Open compund... 11... 11... 11
Barebow... 10... 7.... 9
Theres more excitement in barebow, but it takes a special person too shoot a 132 there at Lancaster
Why would you want to watch compound after bare bow?

the sound of ben rogers arrows hitting the target is awesome
This was great to watch! And what a finish! Ending with a dead center x !
Hit the spider!
Wow.... Love barebow..
Spanky Brooks ...I like him ..fantastic Barebow Archer
Great Show!
Unreal LAS.
I'm proud to be an Aussie, well done Michael.
They need warbow category on the Olympics (100-200lb draw weights)
Haha that'd be something

PLEASE!!!! More Traditional Barebow shoots PLEASE!!!!!! ITS THE ONLY STYLE TO SHOOT!!!! GOD BLESS BAREBOW ARCHERY!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for this broad cast keep it up. I only shoot Traditional.
Incredible final shot. Imagine the pressure just to put an arrow on the target, then just center punching the X.
Now that's archery at its best no fancy gadgets.
Still plungers, CNC risers and finger tab, tho. I find amusing the needs to critize compounds or olympics; a self bow archer could do the same... No need to blame others which enjoy different ways of archery.
Who criticized compounds or the Olympics or blamed anyone you have a problem.
@@gemfaceter Tell me more about those "fancy gadgets" that aren't archery...
It was a comment on how well they were shooting without all the modern equipment on their bows . The statement that aren't archery is you talking you are pissed about something and just want to pick a fight grow up!
@@gemfaceter but it's really rude to archers like myself who do the olympic bows tbh.
Michael Fisher seems like a super nice guy and such a great Barebow Archer

Way to go love Bar bow,🇺🇸👍 Tennessee prepper
Charles Smith hey man .im in western nc wheres a good tune up for longbow shoot?
Mr. Brooks, si compite este año, le deseo lo mejor desde Argentina. Luis.
Why do they interview them in the middle of the competition? Ugggg
supposedly its to throw them off or whatever but its annoying as hell
Its something to do while measuring the target and pulling out arrows, to be fair.
This is absolutely beautiful!
Barebow is KING. Can't wait for the women shooting next year. Fingers crossed.
Awsome, bringing real archery back
I live 2 hours from Spanky, nice to see home state represented
I'd like to see Lars Anderson compete in one of these. Now he's skilled.
He probably has, if I ever got as good as him I'd find it hard to ignore the competitive side of the sport. Alot of these competitions get little media attention so he could of been in hundreds and we wouldn't know unless he told us, kinda sad really.
Hello from Germany, on which distance they shoot on the target?
18 meters.
Great to watch some quality barebow.
So awesome!!
I'd like to see and all wood class
definitely!
So no hornbows?
Natural materials only class. Wood, bone, stone, sinew, hide glue, fish bladder glue, horn, etc.
And no plungers or rests
Now this is archery.
He should get a 10k bonus for that type of finish
Beto O'Rourke: Hell yeah we're taking your bow and arrows
I’ll kill that son of a bitch.
#BAREBOWNATION for life!
No age class… inspiring… I really like this! 🏆
Ahhhhhhh, finally!!! Your editors need to work harder and get the barebow stuff out STAT!!!! ;-)
Do We have a Traditional Instinctive Raw off the shelf class?? I'm IN!!!👍
Barebow off the shelf wood bows is my game
Olympic Recurve all the way for me, but Barebow is a close second for me to watch or even consider shooting. Compound is a distant third.
I hated last year that they interview them on the shoot. But I have to admit it is an awesome and nervewrecking format!
Could someone tell me what distance and target height they shoot at? Thanks!
@Hrafn thank you
These men... Are Gods!
Nothing better than barebow
Oi oi oi. Good job mate, made Australia proud. Time to get the old recurve out. I'm shooting bare tomorrow like when I was a kid. Compound can take a backseat for a while.
My last bare bow cop. I saw twice where the points were changed for Michael Fisher.
Nothing gets a crowd hyped up like telling them they have to get hyped up.
What's the full run down on b bow compared to recurve ? Why so heavy? Physics please! Arrow length etc..... love this!
The additional weight help offset the weight drag on the string and the disparity between the centre of balance on the bow and the drawpoint. With string walking it has a greater distance too. Arrow length has a role too but it's all about equalizing the weight balance without rods.
is this a competition or a talk-show?
ILMENTULATORE its a community
I agree,that's why hit thy dislike button! The shooting is great,but I quit watching only a third of the way because of all the nonsensecal chatter.....sounded more like a commercial than a tournament!!!
Commented before watching whole clip.love the skills!
Damn spannkyyy you had him.
The best there is .2019. But im getting better..congrats

I was there. It wasn't forced. We really had that much fun.
The Ozzy Won 💯💯🔥🔥😎😎👍👍
This is a great battle💪🏽
Did I hear correctly that he used a 2-2½ lbs stabilizer?! Because whenever I looked for ones, I can only find ones at 0,1 lbs (1,6 oz).
This is an awesome competition, but there are way too many interruptions.
It is great to see bows without training wheels. Also, Lancaster archery is a great site to buy your equipment, the people are great to work with.
Anti-olympic huh? Strictly speaking string walking serves as training wheels. Both olympic archers and barebow have a single point of reference; the arrow point or sight point. Barebow though tweak their shot by adjusting angle.
I think they were talking about compound what with the cams and all that, but I might be wrong.
Ben started competing way before I was born amazing and I am 35. :)
Bare bow is real shooting injoy this can of archery
it's electric, boogy woogy woogy woogy
Freakin Awesome!
Can someone tell me the make of the bow they are both shooting because they look amazing
If you are talking about first match they are shooting CD Archery WF25 and WF27 risers
ObelixCMM thanks so much

Barebow in the UK is a poor relation to the other disciplines at the moment, hopefully this video could turn the tide,well done to everyone envoled.
I've just put my compound down for a break & started shooting instinctive barebow for fun. It's so relaxing in comparison it's ridiculous lol.
I don't know who that guy in blue is with the mic asking the competitors questions but he is good. Very nice event. I live in PA I hope I can come down one of these days.
John thats his name. GJ
are you commentators there to commentate ?? ..……… you seem to be ignoring the arrow action....…………...
OohH YyeahH Mate!
Looks like a fun event i like how engaging they are with crowd
awesome 🎯
Bare BOW . no stabilizer clicker sight....bla bla bla etc .Real archers......
Camera should be on the target when the arrow hits 👍🏼
Argh, can´t wait until snow melts!
