Default Not ready to shoot 3D, but gettin' there.

I feel like my game is on today. Just shot these two groups at 15 yards with the longbow. I also alternated shots between the 2117's and the POCs just to make it interesting. Please ignore the tail up and tail down.... the target starts swinging after the first shot or two. Makes robinhoodsalmost impossible... not quite, but almost. I'm pulling it together, and I think that by the time October 1st rolls around, this Montana is going to be a lethal weapon.

(Oh yeah, that one shot kinda stunk, huh?)

Can anyone recommend a good instructional video on how to shoot a recurve?

I don't know about video's, but I recommend several books. I found good info in all, and bad.

Brian Sorrell's Beginner's Guide to Traditional Archery
Byron Feruson:Become the Arrow (he also has a video)
Fred Asbell's Instintive Shooting I and II

Personally I think practice and more practice is better then any video. JMHO.

I'll second that. Ipractice with the compound and longbowpractically every day, and I shoot a lot. Let me put it this way: That Morrells Outdoor Range target in the pic.... That'sa replacementcover, and the other side is shredded. I just started archery last March. I shoot A LOT.
