Archery World

phil c asked:


the area behind my yard is woods and noone lives there at all. the problem lies in the fact i live in a townhouse so my neighbors might see me practice. if i practice archery shooting at targets aimed at the woods, would there be any trouble with the law?
-assume my neighbors are okay with me practicing archery

Melissa G asked:


I just started shooting a bow with my husband and when discussing it with someone at work they claimed that they had shot a 90lb. bow. I shot a 30lb. and am unaware if there is a 90 lb. I am new to this archery stuff and just wondered if anyone could help me with this.

I only ask b/c I answered a Q about the battle of thermopylae earlier today and I’ve never read anywhere about the Greeks using any kind of artillery of any kind in the battle only the Hoplites.

I don’t have any equipment yet because I don’t want to buy something and it not be what I need. So I was wondering if you guys could give me a good website to go to and any tips you are willing to share. Thanks

craftladyteresa asked:


I’ve tried using spare arrows, but they get in the way. Any archers have suggestions?
The bale strings are tied too tightly to stick the targets under.

Zelus et Radix asked:


My younger brother he made a handcrafted “bow” toy out of a hanger; the string is a strip of some stretch fabric and the arrows are wooden skewers. He’s obviously not practicing it as a sport but it seems he likes doing it. I’d appreciate some very general tips or principles on archery that can be applied even with his rudimentary bow. I’ve googled it but all the info I found was related to sport archers and professional bows we can’t afford to buy.
Thanks in advance. God bless you.

Atmo Disha asked:


I know there are many methods of meditation in the midst of circumstances. I am interested in the theory that zen archery is as an effective method of awakening as zazen.
AH - That’s fine, please feel free, your answer is as important as anyone elses and I find your questions valid.
