    I'm struggling with some flyers frequently hitting high above the target. I believe the issue is my arm is sometimes jerking up during the release and thus changing the trajectory of the arrow. To correct this, I've tried stiffening my bow arm and pushing down harder into the grip but sometimes...

    I requested a seperate sub-forum category for this, but was turned down for now and that's ok. So, we shall start with a thread and see where that goes. Feel free to disagree with the idea that shooting any barebow with fingers might be a flavor of traditional. The term "traditional" is being...

    Hi, Unfortunately I fell out of love with archery a couple years ago and don't see myself getting back into it anytime soon. On top of that the transmission just went out in my truck and I'm looking at about a $10K to get it fixed. So it's time for all my gear to go. I'll be making a bunch of...

    Taking feelers on selling my 25” Gillo GT riser, comes with 2 TTT strings and an Rcore Master Mid grip. Won’t be selling the rest, plunger or yost weight. Some minor finish wear on the riser the rest contacts it, but it’s only cosmetic. $400 shipped! Let’s get this thing sold!

    Hi tradtalk, I'm new here, I'm a barebow shooter and relatively new to it, I've been looking at different styles of weights and have seen some weights like the gillo hammers and some other weights that are sort of extended away from the riser, I was wondering what is the advantage or...

    I've been reading about spine and the general theme is "slightly stiff is better". I look at arrow spine charts and they confirm this, everything looks stiff, I can't even find sp1000/900 arrows anywhere in adult range (25 pound draw weight, 26+ inch draw length = 27+ inch arrows). Examples...

    Hi, I've started learning target archery recently, and I notice there's conflicting information regarding posture between different Youtube videos, and between what I learn at local archery shop + barebow shooting videos. I highlight in bold the method I use instinctively. I noticed some...

    Hi, I'm new to archery, and after watching plenty of reviews I decided that Black Hunter is the one I like most (another most-recommended bow is Samick Sage, but it looks bigger). So I'm looking for arrows that is suitable for bows like this (30# power, 60-62" length). The goal is for indoor 20...

    I made this tab from a piece of flattened schedule 40 PVC pipe. I really like my Yost cordovan tab, but I wanted to try something that extended a little towards the palm to see if it helps to stabilize my hand a bit. I still have some work to do in that regard, but the tab shoots really well...

    Note the updated WA Target Barebow rule, published on 1 October... "It is now mandatory that the end (practically, the top) of the centre serving cannot end in the field of vision of the archer at full draw, preventing it from being used as an aiming aid." It applies to WA target archery, but...

    So I was watching the Lancaster archery mens barebow and started wondering why they only shoot 20 yds? There was this one guy who has only been into recurves for 5 months and was shooting in the finals! Made me question why 20 yds and if that's too close..

    Posted the same to AT, but diversity of opinions and all that. After seeing so many success stories and recommendations, I'm considering trying a clicker on my barebow rig as a training aid. I've never used a clicker before, so my baseline is complete ignorance. I'd like to be able to use it...
