Archery with the thumb ring: Shooting technique for short reflex bows - Adam Swoboda
How does it work - shooting with a thumb ring - and the arrow is on the right side? - In this book you will learn what you need to know about this special, traditional shooting technique: how to stand, grip and draw the bow, methods of aiming and releasing - all tried and tested by the author.
Traditional archery with Asian bows has been attracting increasing interest in recent years. Yet we still know little about the ancient shooting techniques, and buyers of reflex bows often don't really know how to handle this type of bow. This book by Adam Swoboda fills this gap in an excellent way. The author has studied the original sources and interpreted them in a way that modern readers can understand. This extremely difficult task required a thorough understanding of the equipment, as well as an in-depth knowledge of archery acquired through many years of practice.
In addition to detailed descriptions of reflex bows, the book contains information on the archer's position when shooting, the correct grip and methods of release. It also includes methods of aiming, which is often the most difficult art to learn.
A book that every archer should have in their collection!
