We will keep it up. Longbow has usually had the lowest participation class at our Nationals, but they had a decent number this time and we are trying to boost it up. Hope we have some at the outdoor Nationals in July also. At least enough so we can broadcast some more finals for you of "real archery" 😉🤣

Its not a western or English style, but I believe it meets the definition of a long bow as the string doesn't touch the limbs except at their attachment.

12 metres????? That's 36 feet...ish. I shoot proper longbows....as in English longbows. I could get 6 arrows in that Gold from twice that distance. I tend to shoot six arrows per end as it were. They also are closing one eye and seem to be sighting along the arrow which is OK at a short distance but no good for a long distance and certainly not instinctive shooting. Dave.

No its only 12m. There has generally been very low participation at Nationals in longbow so it is an unofficial competition (meaning that we award medals but not National titles or records). We are trying to boost the number participants in the class, so we are running a bit wild with the classification of what counts as a longbow and the distances to boost participation. It should not effect the oucome much since the athlete that is the most accurate still wins 😉. There is no ruleset for longbow in target archery within WA so we can play around with it hehe

Actually these bows are not that hard to shoot. Especially that close to the target. Competition brings added pressure but a longbow is easy to shoot. They just atre not shooting well. I shot longbows and recurves. Without sights.

@@davesheppard8797 There have been many types of longbows around before the now typical English longbow shape developed, and the term is by no means exclusive to them. Some people associate the term "longbow" with "D-shaped and horn tipped yew bow", "loosely resembling an English warbow", or even the modern American longbows. From my personal central European perspective, a "traditional" longbow is a bow that is probably >=90% of its users height in length, is not a recurve, and can be either D shaped, round-ish or flat, depending on the specific type and/or material used. A Holmegaard bow is a longbow. An English longbow is a longbow, too. But it is by far not the fist type that comes to mind with that term. If one wants to single out English style longbows, they must be called exactly that. Some competition classes do that, but they are usually called somewhat along "English longbow". The 'normal' longbow classes can be quite liberal, allowing anything from a glorified broomstick to a modern laminated American hunting longbow with shelf (which is rather flat also ^^).

Everyone needs to work on their form. Not bad but improvement is needed. Use a tab and not a glove. I admire your interest in traditional archery.

BTW: I noticed, that especially in the long bow disciplines, the form of the archers is often times very bad. And it is mostly the finals I am watching. I know, your nerves are weak in a final.

Their whole association has the membership numbers of what is a mid-sized club in other countries. And they had double-digit member numbers just one decade or so ago. They also seem to have some silly weapon laws, making it difficult for youth to train. But at least archery seems to be on the rise over there now, give them some time to get more professional. ;-)
