That guy's good, he shoots pretty accurately and makes it look so easy. He's lvl20 ranger IRL.

what i like the most is how he simply draws his longbow quickly and fires without even stopping to take time to aim.

just an fyi, no, he is not a level 20 ranger in RL. i'd personally say level 24. ;D

This is how your supposed to shoot a bow, aim as you draw it back, then when you hit your anchor point, release.

ah, i had no idea. i've never really handled a bow before, tbh. /laugh @ a generation where the pistol is owned by everyone-- by legal or nonlegal means.

i do not own a pistol, i carry around a bow for self defense. with guns the robber could just as easily take the gun from you from behind and then he turns your own power against you. most robbers don't know what to do with a bow so i could pick them off at range with my bow hunting skills.

Holy crap, do want.

Such a simple, yet deadly weapon. I think it's only beaten in simplicity by a quarterstaff...

60kg is more or less equal to 132 pounds....not a 110 (its Kg x 2.2 = pounds)

I tried pulling a 80 pound bow and there pretty tought if your not use to, but i can see the power behind and arrow
