Archery Form with Arne Moe

Last summer I met up with archery coach Arne Moe to work on my form and technique. Even though I primarily bowhunt vs compete in target archery, I believe the fundamentals apply to each. Arne has a Level 4 certification in NTS, which not only means he understands proper shooting biomechanics, but has also proven that he knows how to coach it. Originally, the issue I had was that the string would contact my nose and face upon release. After working on the relaxed string arm and a rotational draw about my core, I've pretty much eliminated my ailment, am shooting much better, and able to hold at full draw more comfortably.

Of all the trad archery videos I’ve watched, this is the most comprehensive and thorough instruction that I’ve seen. I wish I lived closer to Mr. Moe.
watched dozens of videos, and this changed my form for the better the most
This should be a DVD by itself... wonderful! Lovely gentleman!
Archers!!! Look carefully at the form and release of Mr. A. Mow!! This is a master Archer and obviously an outstanding instructor as to Archery 🏹!!! This archer is literally doing EVERYTHING right!! As an archer myself, I understand exactly what the requirements are for this yet I very rarely meet these requirements like this instructor!!! I recommend watching this post more than once!!!
WOW WOW WOW! I applied these things after watching this a few times! My groups went from 2 1/2" at 20 yards to slapping arrows! Thank you for sharing this video!
Arne moe is not only a fantastic coach, he is an awesome person. Every time I have ever had the pleasure of speaking with him you can feel his passion for coaching!!
I just bought a recurve bow. I was and would still like to shoot a compound bow. This video is the most helpful video I have watched to teach me proper form! I’m glad that I found it before learning bad habits. I would like to hunt eventually with my recurve. First I need to shoot correctly and build confidence and accuracy to be able to hunt. Thank you very much for this educational content!!!
Garrett thanks for 1) making the video and 2) sharing it with us!
How quickly he was able to transform your shots could only be done by sombod'y who really knows the art-form inside out.. Amazing teacher
It's a valuable lesson he made about how your anchor is a reference point at which you have alignment, not just some arbitrary spot on your face. I didn't even realize that, so when I next go shooting I have some calibrating to do. I was also amused by "Compound has engineered the human out of it as much as it can; Traditional has engineered the equipment out of it as much as it can."
WOW! as a traditional/ hunting archer this was one of the most helpful videos I’ve seen. Great information from a very fine instructor.
Got to the 20 min mark and had to pause to go shoot in the garden with the tips fresh in my head. Keep head up and straight, relax forearm, fence post body..draw and raise into anchor. Smooth good feeling releases with grapefruit groups at 20 mtr.. awesome! I only started two weeks ago.

I went and shot around the same time in the video. I’ve been shooting a trad bow 15 years.
Thank you! Thank you! And thank you to the several YT contributors who have recommended your vid.
I struggled many years with trying to grip that string also . It’s a tough one to break. The heavier the bow the harder this is to stop doing. It’ll cause us to have poor shooting form. Form creates function and function is form. Forces are alignment and alignment will create a flow of the shot form. All will become one . This is great instruction from this man . I love how he said alignment of the bones will dictate the anchor . Inadvertently I never thought about this but he is correct. So much about all he is saying is so good . The shot with traditional bow is form and follow through. Learn this first then when shooting instinctively with this and good arrow flight you will start group your arrows where you are looking. Just like throwing a ball. It’s mechanics and when you work with the body mechanics the shot will just happen. From there then rotate that mechanical position to where the arrows are going towards the intended target . Again the teachings of this guy are great. Thanks for sharing this .
Just started last week, however, this is like watching a master master teacher at work. This session requires a notebook, so much good stuff; especially the statements that boil down a concept. Thank you Arnie Moe.
I'm very new to archery and have been struggling so much with my anchor. I've watched countless videos on how to get a good anchor. I was always amazed at how the Olympic style recurve archers drew back and down and then moved up into anchor. I could never grasp the mechanics of it. It looks so nice. Now I know! Arnys explanation of getting the alignment of the bones right first and then just move up into anchor not only explained how it works, but makes complete sense. All it took was one simple sentence to make it hit home! I'll try this technique for sure. Brilliant video 👏👏❤️
This goes to show you never stop learning! I've been shooting traditional archery and now a Chek-mate crusader longbow for the past 4 years and the more I learn the more I see how much is to this sport. Great video I'm gonna totally apply this technique to my form cause I've had the string clip my nose a time or two and now I'm gonna work on keeping my head more straight up and square to the string
G'day, I am just starting archery, so watching a video like this is priceless in creating the correct form to begin with. So thank you both for this vid. Cheers from Melbourne Australia.

Hey rustie cheers from east gippsland!🍻👍
Nice work! Arne helped me get my nose out of the way of the string years ago! He is a great asset to the sport and a true gentleman. Thank you for sharing.
"Archery is a game of millimetres " I wish it was, so hard to me find out that everything in archery by the imperial system... What a master class!
Thank you SO much for this video. A true moment of epiphany 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great vid mate I was hitting my nose as well, and just did not know why. Arne Moe what a great guy it all made so much sense. thank you for sharing
Best video on how to shoot a traditional bow ever seen !!!!
“Stick with it” trad shootin in a nut shell. This is gold, thanks guys!
So glad i came upon this video.. Its the first time i hear to not draw by the bicep and keep the front arm relaxed. 3rd day shooting today. So i can immediately stop doing it wrong! Thanks
I can't wait to watch this video multiple times. Nose slapping has been an issue that randomly popped up for me as well!

turn your head more away from your drawing hand and don't lean your head into the string
Great thought on filming this for posting. It helped me as well.
I've never seen anyone getting nose slapped by the string before :D Very interesting video, you really see a broken down view at the draw process. Learned a few things from this. Thank you
His is probably the greatest information I have seen. I use this video as a reference and watch it at least once a month. I don't do the rotational draw but everything else is right on the money.
I can watch this many times and learn something every time.

It's like listening to your favourite uncle! Damn good coach
Ok ... so now I realise where my terrible flaws come from. BIG thank you for this video. You took time on each details and I think my nose, wrist and middle finger will feel a major relief. Now I see my many mistakes (triing to be aligned from the beginning of the draw for example and so on)
This guy is the shit. After he finished the 'relaxing the forearm' segment in the beginning, I went out and tried relaxing and using my back should muscle more and I started laying them in there from 20 yards! I still have the nose slap thing though. Cant wait to finish the video lol! Thanks for posting this.

Arne is a great coach for sure. My nose slap issues are still resolved to this day. And if they creep back I'll know how to handle it.
I am glad you are able to share his knowledge with us all!
I really like the comment "I'm holding it on bones" I've always found this gives the consistency needed. Many other great points covered, excellent coach and informative video!
Great instruction! Thank you for posting.
Good coaching, great information. I wish I had a coach like This when I started.
Nice to see a fellow leftie, thanks for sharing

Very helpful video thanks for sharing. I will watch many times
Thank you gentlemen very much for the excellent demonstration. It helps a great deal !
This is exactly the mental tutorial I so desperately needed. Many thanks.
I had a problem hitting my nose for the longest time. I discovered it was as you mentioned that I was not turning my head far enough. My neck was actually tight when I turned it. So I was not turning it enough and beat my nose bloody. But ever since I began to turn my head away from the path of the string I have not had any problems with hotting my nose. And my neck has actually loosened up some.
Thank you! And to a thorough tutor aswell. This elbow trick made miracles.
Probably the best training video on yutube
This was wonderful to watch as a new archerer.
Rest In Peace Arne ❤
I agree with the comment below I feel like I should’ve paid for this, thanks for sharing man.
This guy is a really good teacher.
I'm struggling with the same issue right now. And I have been trying to figure out this whole rotational draw deal. He's got some good advice I can't wait to try. Archery is a long journey. I've only been shooting for a year. And every time I try to get those groups closer together and focus on aiming, I watch, see or experiencing something that tells me my form just isn't there yet.
Good session, thanks for posting it. :)
What a great instructor. Thanks for posting.
Found that very helpful as a complete newbie.
An absolute must-watch for anyone passionate about shooting! Whether you're just starting out or have years of experience under your belt, this video offers invaluable insights and tips that can elevate your skills. Highly recommended for all skill levels! 👌🎯"HZA
Thank you for sharing...That O'l fella saved your nose,,,lol! Great video! He is right about this will change your draw length ...some. I have many longbows, 60# down to 46# I found that the bone alignment as in "Terry's clock" is much easier to notice with the heavier poundage. So when I switch bows and go down in poundage it takes me a few shots more to zero in on my form. Great video my friend...there is nothing more satisfying than the Stick & String!

Where do you access “terrys clock”? I have the Tradgang hunting video with him going over the magic T but have not seen the clock??
I honestly really enjoy your channel, but I am saving this link. Maybe at some point I will seek out a coach, but watching you go through the motions has already been a help--both to my draw and release.
Excellent video
Really like the training style thank you.
Great vid. All tips from Arne are 100%. Good form and release will cure noose slap for most. But for me it did not. Hers my story. I have had serious nose slapping issues leading to a point I gave up shooting. At the time I shoot recurve with stringwalking. (common style in sweden). In this style you shoot 3 under and for me it was vip to align string with arrow tip to get realle good accuracy. Problem was I could never reach perfect alignment wo slapping nose too much. The string just got to close to nose when aligned with tip. After a couple of yrs, I got sick of taping / bleeding nose and gave up..... a couple yrs later I bought a long bow and tried instinctive shooting with split finger. Zero or very rare nose slapping but ok accuracy (=less than string walking but all ok for being instinctive). So why was this? For me it has to do with 3 things. -now I cant the bow a bit, 5-10 degrees. This moves the string away from nose -the split finger, for me, tends to give less noose slap compared to 3 under. I have no good explanation to this. -i do not care about string alignemnt with the tip. I just look down the arrow as a barrel of a gun to get alignment when drawing bow. Of above, for me. Canting of the bow is probably the main thing. But the other do play in for me here as weel. As Arne says in the vid. Its a mm sport. Just a slight canting of the bow can move string some mm from the nose.
What Nusensei said. Thanks
Thanks for the video. Great session.
What a great teacher!
Cool vid. I think it's a great idea to get a professional involved if you can, lol. I don't know what you shoot when you do form practice and such but if you're using a 50# bow for your serious shooting/hunting, do some form work with a lighter bow so you know what that good draw feels like and what your body feels like rather than having to be more concerned with drawing the heavier bow.
Great video I've shot trad for years and it's been a very long time since I came across so much useful information in one sitting. I know what I'll be doing the next few nights, checking out Arne Moe video's
Thank you very much for your knowledge guys.
Arne is awesome coach!
This is the exact problem that I was having this has been a big Help
Back tension and head stability is extremely important
Good stuff; makes me wonder if I'm over-tensing my hook on the string.
Great video. I appreciate you sharing it.
Lol when you had the strap on your elbow and he said “now release it” I was like , wait what release it, there’s no arrow lol forgot the string was tired to the rope lol 😂
Great information!!
I had no intention of watching this whole video ... intentions be damned I did. Great video.
❤️from Kenya
Great video, Los of great advice here from one of the best
Around 20:, ish,"Relax everything and only use the muscles you need", that is a lifetime of information
Great video, especially for me, I'm a lefty too. :-)
Thank you for this. i feel like I should send a payment to Arne!
Really really nice archery education..👍
Although informative, I have experienced in other sports, that the focus on technique separated from the objective of the sport, is not beneficial, special in the early stages of development of the skill. The focus on the technique must always bee related and in relation to the objective of the sport, in this case, accuracy and consistency not only on technique but on the arrow hitting the target. Although for one time, this is helpful.
This is awesome, thanks for sharing
Very informative video! Thank you!
Another great video. Thanks.
This is fantastic. Thanks!
Excellent info !!!
Excellent thanks for sharing 👍🏻🏴🏹
This video is a gold mine of information! Has helped me a lot! Thank you for sharing this with us! Do you remember, if Arne ever told you, what bow he was shooting? Or if anyone in the comments knows?

Arne Moe, I'll be in Hutchinson, Mn this weekend. Only wish I could drop by and say Hi.
Excellent
I’ve been working on this, but I have a really hard time little my wrist relax to the point of the bones separating while still holding a good hook.
Very good and helpful !!! Thanks.
What a great guy ;)
Great video!
perfectly explained,well done.
Great video. Learned a ton!
Well it’s been some years since this training. What has stuck that helped you the most with your shooting process?
I’m wondering if you overcame the string hitting your nose permanently? And where your anchor point ended up. I saw on another video you were talking about your cheek bone. I’m going through some similar growing pains as I’m learning to shoot recurve. Thanks!

Yes, I haven't had any nose issues for a long time. I still get some contact, but interestingly there's no pain. I only notice it when I see slow motion video playback and the nock of the arrow will sort of push my nose out of the way as it goes past. The nock surface is much smoother than the string. Key things were (1) keeping that neutral head and not allowing my head to turn into the path of the string, and don't move the head to meet your hand. Bring the hand to the face (2) Relaxed hand and wrist (3) anchor. Some anchors and bow lengths appear to cause issues no matter what. If I draw into my back and lift my hand up until my index knuckle is against the bottom of my cheekbone, it's pretty solid and I'm able to keep the arrow pretty much under my eye. Any higher and the arrow gets outside of my sight line, and in order to tilt and correct gets my nose in the path of the string. Really low anchors that allow you to put the tip of your nose on the string like olympic style are good too, but harder to aim without sights. And if you shoot with an anchor or crawl that allows the nock to be what would brush your nose rather than the string, any contact won't cause much if any pain.
GOD BLESS YOU SR. GRACIAS FELICIDADES CHAMPION
