Welcome! I've always wanted to give archery a try, especially the longbow. What are they like to shoot?
It was a mistake of mine to get a 50 lbs longbow. I was thinking in terms of power and force, that i din't realize how much arm strength it takes for me to fire my bow.That said, i highly reccomend an adult start with a 35-40-45 lbs bow.As a refference,warbows in the middle ages had at least 100 lbs draw weight.
To correct that i need to hit the gym and build upper-body strength.
As a hobby, it's great because you get in touch with your primal roots and instincts.I also find it somewhat therapeutic.
Change of subject: is that CM Punk on your profile pic?
