Title: Some Videos and Photos
Post by: Agincourtwarbow on June 06, 2014, 08:51:04 pm: Hello everyone,
Been a while since I was last on Primitive archer, spend quite a time across the pond in Europe. Been nice getting back in the shop and of course shooting some bows. Anyway for those interested I've just finished a new video of myself shooting. Just for fun as I enjoy making videos, this one is me shooting a new Hop-hornbeam bow I've just made and an old Italian Yew bow by Poletti. http://youtu.be/fDU4DtypqJc (http://youtu.be/fDU4DtypqJc)

The Canadian Warbow Society has also just had a shoot down in Michigan, USA which went very well considering we had a number of wounded soldiers, but a good time was had by all. There are plenty of photos of this shoot and a big long weekend shoot we had back in July of 2013 on Lake Huron, Ontario. Good distances were recorded that day. The photos can be seen on the new CWBS Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1430775740527091/ (https://www.facebook.com/groups/1430775740527091/) Although the group is for a closed one so that CWBS members can communicate with one another, I believe posts can be seen by anyone... hopefully :-\

Finally the video of the Big Bay Big Bow Shoot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yNJExnpcSM&list=UU1u9Zhqbn33qUOXuxurt7zQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yNJExnpcSM&list=UU1u9Zhqbn33qUOXuxurt7zQ)

Just wanted to share that for those who are interested! ;)

PS. How did you persuade Leonardo DiCaprio to do the piece to camera for you? ;)
