After you demonstrated proper form for the bow shoulder the pain was GONE! make a long story short I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart because you saved my ability to do archery. Thank you !

People boast too much about their draw weight. normally a teen should start on 14-24 pounds and a starting adult should start on 18-32 pounds. It doesn't matter if you can draw a 60lb bow 10 times. You should be able to draw your bow hundreads of times with consistent form and with no pain at all.

mcsimeon thefin I started shooting a 30 pound fiberglass longbow a few years ago. Not the best thing when being younger. I just watched jeff Kavanaugh videos to correct form and I also built my muscles up. I feel most comfortable shooting 35 pounds now. But my brothers 45 pound bow is fun from time to time.

Great advice! A father and son came to the range with brand new archery equipment. The father was attempting to draw his 45# bow and his 14 y.o. son had a 25# bow. It was sad to see them struggle draw those bows, with contorted, scrunched up bodies, and wild shots completely missing the 10 yard hay bail almost every time and unable to even get close to a proper anchor. They were frustrated and were not having fun. I never saw them again -- very sad.

Very helpful. A lot of blokes need to button down the ego! I'm coming back to archery after a bad motocross induced shoulder injury and a three year layoff. My 60lb compound lies in its case, my 50lb Bear rests unstrung and my 42lb GMX looks good on the mantlepiece. But I've dusted down the kids' 18/22lb bows and set up the 18m range... Loving it! Never be too proud! I hope to use my old bows in maybe a year and aim to get back to my old 200 arrows a day. But for now, 25 arrows at 18lbs is what I can do safely, but I'm stoked to be back shooting. Shame my daughter's bow is pink!

Poundage is not important. I'm someone who as a child/young teenager was part of a swim club for 8 years and then before I started archery spent another year swimming 3 times a week. I had pretty strong and developped back muscles thanks to this. Disregarding that I started with a club bow for my first month which was 26# and before I went for a rental to see if archery was for me I tested out other peoples bows who had a higher poundage and while I could handle 40# I felt it put too much stress on me and made me lose form. There is no shame in making that call. In the end I went for a 35# rental since it was the only one left in shop and shot that for 3 months before finally buying my own bow and now being comfortable with 40#. After that I spent another 6 months before now finally going up to 45# where I'll probably stay at as I like switching between my 40# on my off days and my 45# on other days. Poundage is not important, it doesn't equal anything really. Proper and consistent form and training is what makes you a good archer. One of the best archers in our club swears by his 35# Martin and he feels good with it. If you're at a club don't be afraid to ask if you can shoot other people's bows. If they agree it'll give you a great insight into what you can or cannot handle and believe me, the ones who are like me love nothing else than seeing someone enjoy the bow that they themselves shoot with.

Thanks heaps for this! I'm 17 and have been making bows from scratch and shooting them at home for ten years and I've never had problems until now! A few weeks ago I finished an ash longbow at 50-55#. I can just about pull that weight comfortably now, but the tension and pain in my neck and shouders I can now confedently attribute to my arrow lenghth. The last batch of arrows I made are simply way to short, as they were split from a log measuring around half a meter! They are pretty, but problematic, as there is simply no way I can get to full draw and the locking position with the lower back muscles; hence the shoulder pain! Thanks again, I will either make some longer arrows or wait till I can buy some store-boughts (as much as I hate them!)

Just had a recent chat with a youngster about 'front shoulder pain' on one of your more current vids, and lo, here's an old vid about injury. Funny how different physiologies react differently to the same movement. High draw technique caused me shoulder issues both front and rear. On the other hand, a rotational draw with the forearm following the arrow plane alleviated rear shoulder pain, engaged back muscles more efficiently and aided in setting the front shoulder correctly. It also provides me with a much more stable path to a consistent anchor. The archers (I know) who 'high draw' all shoot low poundage target recurve. Stick a higher poundage (>40 lbs) trad bow(62" and>) in their hand for an extended period and soon enough the dramatic 'high draw' flourish and low anchor make way for a rotational draw with a higher anchor. And yet the fundamentals are still the same. Great vid.

Wil Wheaton is probably happy you helped contribute to season 3 :) I take it you enjoy his shows as I do as well :) I totally agree about learning on a lower powered bow and establishing good form and technique. This is true for almost any sport where equipment is involved. In music though, getting that expensive guitar you intend to keep forever to learn on can be helpful because their play-ability is often better than a cheap newbie guitar where you have to press harder and it hurts your fingers more. In both situations, the equipment doesn't make you better, but learning how to use them properly and consistent practice does. But of course, you already know this :)

New archer here! I have to thank you once again Sensei. I've begun to feel pain in the draw shoulder after training...and got worried. I suspected it was my form or the heavier poundage that i got on the new bow. Turns out it was probably both. And even If I knew the correct draw movement (I had a pretty good score with my barebow months ago), somehow I subconsciously relapsed to the wrong movement at 6:55

One thing about getting older is the body is less resilient. I quit smoking about 9 months ago, so decided to start doing daily exercise on my rowing ergometer - so I am fit. A few weeks ago I pulled out my bow (an old 50lb compound), and started shooting about 30 or 40 arrows a day. Sure enough, within a week I came down with tendonitis in my right inside forearm at the inside elbow. Tendonitis stops ALL exercise cold. The tendons will not heal otherwise. Sucks getting old.

A coupla years back, I was shooting more than 200+ arrows every day. My only other physical activity was daily walking. I believe this potentially led to my suffering rotator cuff tendinitis; with symptoms of severe 'clunking' `noises` EACH TIME I lifted my arm in everyday activities, and with drastically reduced arm strength in everyday activities. However, there was hardly any noticeable pain to speak of. With this scary 'clunking' following normal common movement ranges of my String Drawing shoulder, I put a stop to backyard shooting, lest I contribute to `real` and permanent damage. Some weeks later, I again gave shooting a try: but this time, I drastically modified my way for withdrawing an arrow from my hip quiver. (you see, the first I started noticing the onset of 'clunking' in my String Shoulder, was each time I withdrew an arrow from my quiver. It only developed into 'clunking' throughout other more-normal motions later, after I started noticing it here, first) Through modification of arrow withdrawing, I had successfully halted the one-for-one clunk per arrow 'retrieval'. But my shoulder continued to mis-behave when NOT shooting. This is why for most of the last two years, I have voluntarily ceased archery shooting. For just over the last month, I have returned: doing shoulder exercises and shooting from a 15# fibreglass kiddie stick bow; leaving my 'proper' 36# Olympic recurve un-used. Currently, the String shoulder is still of drastically reduced arm strength and can suffer the most debilitating bust of pain anytime it gets bumped accidentally. Not only did I significantly modify the way for retrieving arrows from my hip quiver, but I significantly modified the way I draw the bow. I studied the way J.C. Valladont moved 'his' drawing arm, copied it, but additionally held my bow arm equally low-down; level with my drawing arm. . . . . . . . . . This has had the effect of making my Tricep participate more and my shoulder participate less until I reach full draw: where I anchor and have my back take on most of the load. . . . I am totally pain-free when shooting in this manner. I have no clunking noises either. I have full strength with this direction of motion --- It's the general daily activities where I can [sometimes] cop indignant and most debilitating busts of pain for the high-treason of 'not being on guard'. . . . . . . . Nu Sensei's mention of the rotational angular draw (2018 video) has captured my attention ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Now I have taken it to my soul, too, it seems. To me, it just makes good horse sense ! ! ! Over the last coupla days, I have applied a somewhat exaggerated and purposeful angular draw into my way of drawing with the 15# stick bow. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Currently, I feel strong, and feel like I can return to my proper 36# target recurve. It is my anxiety and terror and belief that my shoulder can not, in fact, take the load, even now, two years later, which makes sure I shall not enter into such folly. Although I constantly think about the angular draw now, and watch for it on KZitem's "Archery TV" matchplay, somehow I suspect that I always applied an unconscious level of small-scale angular draw throughout my whole archery life. Looking back, it just seems natural that I may have had been doing it all along.

I am new and just bought a 40 pound samick. I can hold it for about 15 seconds before it's too much. I understand I will have difficulty adapting but I don't think it's too bad. I have not even shot an arrow yet, I am first training to handle the weight with form. I am not big but I am not noodle arms either. I think I can get used to it fairly quickly with the right training. The problem is that I could not afford a second bow and my ego is also a factor. I am thinking, however, to try and find a cheap enough horse bow with a low weight for my wife. We do actually have a ~30 pound longbow which might help with strength and form transition but it shoots like crap because it's an out of tune fold up with wobbly limbs

Another good vid mate, top stuff. I'm just getting into archery and went the cheaper Apex option (Storm 320 compound). I'm a 31" Draw (maybe 32") and I asked for the max 31" draw and opted for 50lbs instead of the max 75lbs. After my 3rd test fire I was knackered so wound the pounds down a turn, a few more shots and wind downs later I found myself sitting at I guess around 20-30pounds. Fortunately I had the option to do so. :) I'm assuming you're not big on compound bows but if you have one would you mind doing a video on sighting one in? I like your videos because you're thorough and don't skip over the fiddly bits. Jokes aren't bad either. Cheers.

I deciced to hold at full draw for a complete 5 seconds before my release. I couldnt even hit the bag! To much weight! I dont have the money for new limbs and arrows tuned for them. Heres my plan. Once my groups come back to normal with a 5 second pause, ill move to 10 seconds. Ill keep moving up in 5 second increments till I can hold my form for 30 seconds inbetween shots with out adverse affects to my accuracy. What do you think? Also, I noticed that when I started this 5 second pause thing all my misses were high, way high. Any reason for this? I love your videos and I would really value your imput.

I purchased a 28 pound recurve now yesterday and took it to the range where I spent over 2 hours practising as I'm new to archery. I used a glove to protect my fingers but noticed afterwards my fingers had become numb. 24 hours later and I'm still experiencing the numbness in the end of my middle finger. After some research I've read it could be nerve damage. Any tips on how to prevent this? And is it possible to use a wrist release on a recurve until my fingers recover. Thanks in advance. +1 subscriber keep up the good work!

+Liam Treharne I will answer to you. Forget about using a mechanical release unless you get real injuries which is not your case. I personally had the same problem so I can tell you something. I experienced the same thing on one finger tip after 3 weeks I was using a 50# traditional bow. The only thing you can do is: 1- check if you pull the string in the right way placing in the right place the string. 2- Add leather layers to you tab/glove. For example, I took those woolly things you put on furnishings to avoid the doors to ruin them (i'm not eng native so I try exmplaining as I can xD) and put them inside my glove. The numbness could endure some days and even 2/3 weeks but in the end it will pass Have good arrows (as we say) :D
@garyweiss5780

+Liam Treharne Also take in account that starting from zero your fingers are not used to keep that weight. Let them some time and try then keeping your fingers trained so you'll keep callus which is good. I stopped archery for 2 mnths because I was really busy and away from home, then I restarted using my 64 pounds traditional. The result has been devasting for my ring finger which was not prepared anymore to carry that kind of weight. My thinner blood vessels broke and I couldn't shoot for some weeks. So my tips: 1- train often, even just pulling back your string without shooting. 2- do thing gradually :)

I used so many different bows, club bows, and I definitely know my shoulder wasn’t always relaxed and I was pushing. Now I just have to rest and when I go back lessen the weight, keep my bow shoulder relaxed, and I should be fine. Right?

This is target archery-if you shoot the style Howard Hill made popular (which is a superior technique for hunting/war bow) you pull to draw as you lift the bow and by the time you are full draw you are on your target, as far as overbowing most archers are pussies today-you don't learn to draw a stiff bow overnight, it takes years to develop the muscles, and they must be maintained throughout life

Hey, I had a question. I've been shooting my recurve for a few weeks, this afternoon was my longest shooting session by far though. My hand is a bit raw in the spot on the side of my hand, right in line where the fletching passes over the hand, along the line of the thumb and the finger of the bow hand. Is there a way to avoid this besides having to use a glove on both hands?

I have scar on the middle knuckle of my left index from my first experience with a heavy draw bow, I was about 12 (I'm almost 25 now) and I remember loosing the arrow and what felt like a line of fire across my finger lol, those 'feathers' leave one hell of a paper cut

Hi NUSensei, can you tell me what's the name of that exercise accessory you were using from min 7? I'm using a simple stretching tape, but I have been looking for something like this, however I couldn't find it. I was trying on eBay, but couldn't find, probably because i didn't tried the right search words. So if you could tell me how it is called and what to search it would be great... Thanks!

The tip of my middle finger has been numb for a few hours after about 100 arrows with my #45 recurve that I’m comfortable with.. think It’s a problem with my draw ( I do 3 under), my cheap shooting glove, or both? Thanks as always you’re awesome.

Are you hooking the string inside your knuckle when you draw? It's easy to do if you're not paying attention, especially as a subconscious compensation for weak fingertips. The inside of your bent knuckle does not have much tissue to pad the weight of the string. This can pinch blood vessels and deprive your fingertip of full circulation, leading to numbness. Try to draw with the string on the pads of your fingertips ahead of the knuckle.

There is a fairly famous KZitemr from the US , Tex Grubner (TGO), who shot himself in the leg with a pistol while drawing from a holster. He posted a video of the incident of his negligent discharge. He was out of shape at the time. He is now buff and posts his recurve hunting videos. He draws 100lbs. I guess the good thing is he will probably not shoot himself again, but I wonder how well his elbow and shoulder will do.

On the other hand he made a video of how to tactically respond to a bear from the supine position. I shit you not. I use the term "hunting videos" loosely as he never kills anything except channel cat.

@elixiriszog
5 жыл бұрын
Bow hand shoulder popping up is what I assume you mean, as that's a very common form mistake, and that's almost invariably due to too much poundage. Lighter draw weight bow is the solution. That's essentially an inability to transfer the weight to the back muscles, causing collapse of the shoulders inward due too too much pull in that direction while drawing / holding.

Maybe anyone has some advice for me. I‘m into archery since only about three months now. I shot a barebow with a olympic style riser, 30 lbs drawweight. I shoot this bow with a tab and three under. Now i bought a hunting recurve bow (barepaw penthalon shadow) with 35 lbs limbs with a glove in split fingers. Everytime my right (drawhand) ringfinger is sore and kinda deaf for a couple of days. Is it the way i draw or is it the gloves i should change? The gloves fingertips are not leather more if a rugged textile (but archery gloves) and i only have that problem in the tip of the ringfinger. Probably i try to shoot it with the tabs and see if i have the same problem. Maybe that‘s normal until the finger gets used to it? I appreciate any advice

recently just started and I'm finding my bow-holding hand's webbing section (between thumb and index) is sore cause the pit of the grip digs into it with each draw. Is this just lack of conditioning or am I just holding it wrong? I have been making sure the side of my palm presses on the pressure plate of the grip

I hope that I didn't get a bow with too much pull weight because it is a 50 pound pull weight and I am 5 foot, 10 inches tall. My bow is primarily for training since I don't hunt and we don't have a bow club in the area. I didn't want to go over the 50 pound limit due to my height and weight.

Your height and weight have nothing to do with the weight you should get. This is entirely based on your strength and, most importantly, your experience.

Hey Sensei, What do you think a safe draw weight would be to use consistently though till about 60 years of age if you maintain your practice weekly? :o 40-45lb seems to be the consensus that ive seen around, most archers i know who are 45-60 of age doing recurve for a hobby are using 38-45lb limbs and Korean archers think between 40-45 is a sweet spot for consistency What would be your take on this? If i remember correctly, you were using 40lb limbs aswell :o

Thanks, I have never thought of it as drawing, then a transfer to the rhomboids to hold, although I am familiar with the concept of back tension. I will try to focus on this and see how it goes. I am a trad shooter, and I think that when you choose that path, in some clubs they kind of give up on you and stop trying to teach you good form. At 2:20 I think you are indicating your lats, no? Rhomboids are between your shoulder blades as you mentioned earlier. Do the lats come into play to pull the shoulder down?
@NUSensei
9 жыл бұрын
Iron Pirate Lats do come into play. I'm indicating a vague area because I can't quite see what I'm pointing at -.- The "transfer" is one of the subtle elements that self-trained archers miss. The part to really look at is the movement of the scapula of the drawing side. Look up form photos featuring archers from the back point of view to see the correct engagement.

I was going to mention that he slapped his lats when he said rhomboids, but they are admittedly difficult to touch from that position and you use both so it didn't seem worth mentioning.

CrimsonKumiho Well, now you mentioned it anyway. You can touch them pretty easily by going over your head. I'm not too familiar with this method of anchoring, so I wanted to be sure I understood which muscles I should be using for the transfer part. It wasn't my intention to just be pedantic.
@ENomad
9 жыл бұрын
Iron Pirate Obviously. And since we're being "unintentionally" pedantic... Even going over your head they can be difficult to touch really, or at least uncomfortable as it's an unnatural position for your shoulder. It's near the spine and behind the posterior deltoid. Regardless, you're using them all in a compound movement. Technically the shoulder and traps and lats are all primary movers. Lats being the largest muscle back there attached to the humerus and hip, it would make sense why he slapped them when referencing the strain. It's the easiest to discern.

Thanks for the great video.. I was starting archery for about 3 month ago.. I followed many instructions from you videos and thanks for those.. In this last month, I shoot about 100 to 150 time for 3-4 days/week, and I started feel pain at my Deltoid Muscle, so I decide to take rest for a while.. Regarding to this issue, is it normal for beginner? or something wrong with my drawn? Thanks Lot

well I started with 80 pounds and had a little pain in the schoulders, but that was mainly the immobility in the ankered position.I shot 80 for a month and after that I knew my bow very well, it was normals.few weeks ago I ordered 90lbs and 80 is so easy to pull and to let down.I would say, you have to have a perfekt feeling for your body.
