Video...reinventing The Fastest Forgotten Archery.

[Mark S]

In this video Lars "The Twang" Andersen demonstrates what he believes is a style of archery which has long been forgotten. He makes a pretty good argument that this rapid fire archery was common place amongst all archers throughout history.
If he's right this video should, just like the last sword and shield fighting one, give sculptors something to consider when creating archer figures. I can't recall ever seeing an archer figure portrayed using this technique but it would be an interesting figure...~

Hey brilliant find thanks for sharing Mark. Especially like link to Norman archers at Hastings - the tapestry makes sense.
