For those who missed it, or don't have access to certain forums / Facebook , Joe Gibbs has broken the current record for Livery arrow distance at this year's EWBS shoot held by Mark Stretton at Donington.

Here's the video of the shot (the bow is 170# Italian yew and made by the exceptionally talented Ian Coote) and the distance achieved was 292 yards.  Pretty insane.

adb:
Both very impressive achievements... casting a 65g arrow 292 yards, and doing it with a 170# bow. Congrats!

Cameroo:
Amazing!  I don't know what's more impressive, the bow, or how Joe just holds that sucker back like it ain't no thing :)

Joe's war face looks a lot meaner than yours Adam ;)

Thanks for the link Will.
