Really good video . Interesting how many release styles there are in archery . Very nice collection of bows you have too . Thanks for posting
Great video guys, thanks ! This way of shooting allows you to line up the target and the arrow ( point and nock ) on the Same plane with your peripheral vision, while keeping the target in main sight !
Love this video! Thank you!
It looks like you could shoot longer arrows.
For those interested, here is the link to Saxton Popes book, Yahi Archery ….. now you have the content that I had when I first started learning this way … good luck to you !

The Japanese allow the bow to turn in the hand and their bows have a flat rectangular cross section.
Obviously you guys have done way more research than me. Just thinking Ishi and the other California tribes you mentioned. Were people much smaller in stature. Mark looks like a much taller person. Wouldn't a longer draw and bow built for that. Give a more accurate example of how Ishi's and these other native American's form actually was?
Great video thanx for sharing!!
I'm still here at 4:29 , bro, wind wrist and focus is the key.
