I can hold 9-14 arrows simultaneously (depending on type) and when they are shot I can draw the same number of arrows out of my quiver in one motion and immediately begin to shoot. I am against shooting techniques where it is necessary first to put arrows in a certain way before you can shoot. I am convinced that historical war archers do not have the time to first adjust the arrows, they have necessarily just caught and shot immediately. sincerely Lars Andersen

The two bows were designed for different methods of combat, the Mongolian recurves and other such bows were designed for mobility and agility, while the longbows were designed for power and range, both were deadly weapons in hands of soldiers trained for them. I hope this helps you people!

My point in a simple line: *Give Longbowmen Mongolian recurve ones and we would have all speak English and praying to Jesus. * Long bows SUCK. Draw weight is heavy but it isn't as efficient as the Mongolian and having less range too. Ancient Mongol warriors were known to be "effective" up to ~400m (even better than a Marine at 300m with his M4), and yes of course, foot archers only. And talking about efficiency, no bow can compare with Turkish or Korean bows. They're really good, small but pack a mean punch for their sizes, just like dicks - despite how small they're they can all still get women pregnant - and tough also. The Mongolian bows were too well adapt to the steppes's dry, harsh, brutal, sudden hot and cold environment that they broke in South Asia's constantly hot and damp weather. Longbow was much more simply made in the other hand. It could be mass produced easier, therefore giving the (many more) archers more time to practice. It was more like a weapon of war, not the means to make archery an art. . I respect each and every one of them in case you're thinking I hate any. Different bows, different methods, used by different people, for different purpose.They're all great in their own ways. I feel we have no need to start a "Mine is superb to yours" debate here as in many archery videos I've seen so far.

*Reads Saracen Archery* *loud drumroll* "Archery increased to 100"

@TheNanoArcher As I train more and more it becomes possible to shoot fast with heavier bows, recently I have sometimes shot the same speed with my 60 pound bow, so I think it's a matter of much much more training then it is possible to shoot the same speed with really heavy bows, (and maybe some weight training) sincerely Lars Andersen

No one knows how the Mongols shot with a bow! they did not have a written language. so even though the Mongols probably was some of history's best archers it is impossible to imitate them. I do not know much about English archers so I could be wrong !! Was the English longbowmen particularly good, or is it just because of Robbin Hood myth? They beat the French who are not used bows but crossbow. Saracens were certainly not impressed by the English archers. regards Lars Andersen

If you read Chinese ancient history about war against mongols they where huge people that shoot with bows that had massive curve on them and it could been the type of wood they were using . They shooting eagles out of the sky about 350 yards up. There’s paintings on them.how far? 350 yards maybe even more. There’s stories in mythical Chinese stories where they hit two eagles with one arrow. That’s how good they were. They re just like you but in thousands . Imagine a whole army of you. They dominated China Russia to Europe with an army of you.

I have many good bows. Some recurve bows where hand section is changed. I am very happy with the small Kaya bows. Currently I'm waiting with great anticipation for the arrival of the custom made Fast Shooting longbow as Falco is building for me. sincerely Lars Andersen

Absolutley remarkable. That some of the most impressive archery shooting I have ever seen in my life!

Amazing, buddy. Very impressive. I was just wondering yesterday how fast the old archers could send arrows downrange and you've just shown me that it is possible to send 3 arrows on target in about 1.5 seconds. That is fricking amazing. thank you for sharing

Excellent news will keep an eye on your channel. Always nice to see some serious skill!

What's amazing is, not only is he incredibly fast, he's also unbelievably accurate. I can't even hit a target with a single arrow, let alone 3 in 1 1/2 seconds

This is unreal! Huge respect, as an archer myself I know how difficult this can be!

i am wondering.. if he can do this after practicing from a book(of course he has been practicing before) how fast would've been the actual saracen warriors who trained from masters of archery? and how would've the best amongst them been?

@dumbledoor9293

Usually damage is calculated per round, and I think his bow is only +1, so i'd say 12d6+12 dpr, which is quite a punch. I'm here asuming he can continue the 0,5s speed. I have not observed his reload rate, so the dpr is probably less ;-)

An incredible lot of times ! When the goal is simply to push the speed limit then there will be obvious all the time a lot of miss. Every time I increase the speed decreases the accuracy, until I get the hang of it But when I lower the speed a bit, so I hit the target. As I shoot faster and faster, so the speed in which I always hit also becomes faster and faster. (it's almost a year ago I made the video, since I have become faster and also more accurate) sincerely Lars Andersen

Awesome, it seems like you take a real passion in this

That was not lucky. Make someone hit 1 arrow on a target that far away, I am sure MANY would fail.

Thanks for the idea Because I thought it very very easy to pull arrows quickly out of a quiver I never thought of video filming it! but now I make a video where I show it. sincerely, Lars Andersen

Amazing talent, sir! Well done!

I'm very proud of you great job keep up the good work

that's rapid fire artillery...

I was able to finally figure it out, I'm down to 1 arrow a second. 4 arrows - 5 seconds... but I've just started trying this new technique. I've got a long way to go, I'm sure. I can do 3 arrows in about 3 & 1/2 seconds now. Thank you Lars for the inspiration!

That's pretty cool. I would like to see some more video's of you and your form while doing this.

She shoots really good ! and Seregedel inverse system is a truly new development and it's a pretty enjoyable way to try to shoot sincerely, Lars Andersen

Fascinating what can be achieved with simple gear like a bow. The Murmansk Archery School shows a better overall throughput, but this performance here is unique in its own. Especially in terms of the product of hit rate and distance. A nice lesson about the power of that weapon in the middle ages. Thanks!

This is truely amazing I wish you luck in developing you're art Maybe someday you'll reveal it

Very impressive. In future videos, please show your hands and your skill in quickly retrieving and nocking the next arrow. Great vid!

This was 2011 ....hopefully by July 2019 he has a better camera......he is considerably faster in shooting in 2019...curving arrows around obstacles to hit targets...RESPECT!

I make a new video but there is something I need to learn first, it requires I get faster. if / when successful then I'll make a new video. also with many arrows at a time and quiver shooting and also some precision fast shooting. sincerely, Lars Andersen

Interesting information which is in contradiction with all other sources I've read what is the source? Remember that the Saracen archery has 3 test and if you would be right, so it has great influence on the other 2 test. then you have to hit 3 wood arrows at a relatively small target board at 180-240 meters? (seem unlikely) sincerely Lars Andersen

THAT'S IT! Congratulations in heart and soul!..

You are not an archer, but a magician, buddy! Amazing, amazing...

Amazing shots, I myself just bought two simple bows and I'm going to practice, I need to learn to shoot like this!

certainly makes archers a much scarier prospect, especially when you think saracens would've had plenty of mounted archers too

Wonderful speed! Greetings!

So my question is. Do you have a video showing how you knock the arrows? I'm impressed at your accuracy for knocking and loosing the arrows so quickly. Would love to see how personally hold and knock the arrows.

Great shootingI :) I used to shoot recurve target bows, but have often thought about trying something a bit more Saracen/Turkish in style, what would you recommend in terms of equipment, especially the bow? You seem to be using a short standard hunting recurve bow of some sort?

Was thinking why the quality wasn't good when I saw 9 years ago

I'm 19 now but I was in an archery club when I was 10-13, an older gent let me have a shot of his compound bow when I was about 12 and I could barely pull the thing back more than an inch haha. I think it was 60-70 lb or something, and I only used a 25 lb one. I should get back into it, but more with my own targets in the woods, I got fed up and impatient with the drawn out Olympic style and waiting for everyone to finish!

You should remake some of these old videos with modern cameras and some of what you've learned about making videos since. I mean, still great, but you can blow this away now.

video coming very soon sincerely, Lars Andersenng very soon

yeah ! Wonderfull !! You are very gifted.

I thought I saw the fastest archer yesterday, but you easily top that.

Dude! You're like Hawkeye, Green Arrow, Robin Hood and Legolas rolled into 1! Incredible!

Fantastic! Kudos.

Shooting from about seven yards, his arrows are taking just under half a second to reach the target, on average. To spell this out, that means his arrows are flying at about forty-two feet per second... 28.6 miles per hour! I did not know that arrows could fly that slowly and still stick into anything. Given that, if he's using standard "light" arrows (why not?) that would be around 359 grains in weight. Meaning that his arrows are hitting with a force of 1.37 foot pounds of energy. They are "carrying" 2.1 pounds of momentum. His rate of fire is stellar.

Excellent!

Super skydning, Lars! Øvelse, øvelse og liiiidt træning. ;-) Det vil så heller ikke skade at se Ringenes Herre. *G* Keep up the good work!!!

This is an aspect of archery that nearly died off with the downfall of the Native American plains Indians defeat. This is truly remarkable shooting. Good job!

Wow, amazing. I am totally going to try to get that good.

And I think that's exactly the secret of why he's so fast: learn to shoot straight from a pile of arrows in your hand, instead of drawing one at a time from a quiver. That's a whole new skill to learn, and I think it's awesome that Lars Anderson managed to reconstruct this technique. As for the Russian girl, I'd love to see what she can do with some lessons from Lars Anderson. She is very fast and fluid. It's just the one arrow at a time that's holding her down.

@MarcAnMod he is very skilled, and I'm impressed. I believe he's holding the three arrows in his left hand (the hand holding the bow), aligned with the arrows trajectory (flat), so all he has to do is pull the string back and align it with the notch and release. That would give him plenty of time (with practice! it's still fast!!!) to fire the arrows accurately and on the move, because he won't need to pull the arrow from a quiver and set it to the bow. It's already there...

Is filmed But it becomes part of a larger video which should explain what I do and why, so it takes some time to put videos and explanation together sincerely, Lars Andersen

well the old archers only had the quiver to hold the arrows they couldn't hold in their hand so yes he did not have a side quiver or back quiver his quiver was his hand since he only needed shooting 3 arrows.

Thats a lot of practice, you have my respect.

That’s impressive!! Do you ever have days when you feel like living in a yurt, tending your animals, pillaging cities and having your pick of different women, treasures, fine silks, etc?

You must be an Elf with archery master. Congratulations!!!

didnt matter to the huns, who were shooting people under 10 metres on horseback, who used this technique ;)

If you want to look up these amazing archers and their equipment then look up the battles of hastings, and the hundred year war. They also understood their limits with the bow and often "faked out" using the normal arrows to draw them in and then using the bodkin Arrowhead (because it flew longer distances). Now I'm a little rusty on the hundred year war but i hope to have helped you. The 100 year war is an amazing topic and you could learn quite a bit if you wanted.

I usually hate on people that post videoes on youtube.. But thats because they suck. You, good sir, are skilled and deserve a commendation.! Keep up the good work =)

Beautiful

Would that not be 3*(1d6+2)/3*2? (divide by 3 to get half seconds, then multiply with 2 to get a full second)

wait a second so basically people developed actual skills they could use. man, thats really something!

amazing, absolutely amazing

It's not an examination, it's a personal test to see if you are good enough. It is just to do with your speed at loading/shooting arrows to see if you have the dexterity.

Fascinating.

Im in the same boat as you. I figure when push comes to shove those who know how to fire raw will definitely be better of than those who use compound bows etc. Btw where do you draw from?

i once was an adventurer like you until i took 3 arrows to my knee in 1 1/2 seconds

Very impressive man

The thing I think while watching this is how fast he reloads the next 1, it takes me at the least, around 6-8 seconds, you do it like instantly, its insane!

What weight is your bow for this video?

actually i am learning about the english longbow in my military history class right now, and from what i can tell they could put an arrow through a steel helmets visor from about 30 feet away, with no issue at all. so yes the individual bowman was a very good shot. and not only were the bows amazing with range and accuracy, they also came with if i can recall my class 2 different types of arrows. The hunting arrow, the Badkin arrow (practically the first armor piercing ammunition).

Can you do this with Lumenok arrows? Would be nice to see how the arrows are going / where they're at as you do this.

Great shooting.

Would be a good start!

I shoot traditional bows myself, and the only comment I have is, you are very good! I'm quite impressed! Okay, I guess that was two comments. By the way, what is the draw weight of the bow you are using?

Holy shit an arrow to the knee joke that actually made me laugh. Congrats on that one.

One wonders how the Crusaders must have shat themselves the first time they saw a Mameluke doing this.....

Very impressive. I find it hard enough to have 1 arrow in the air simultaneously...

This is insane. 3 Years of practice probably made you the worlds fastest archer (at least on the internet)

Lars you are a good example of a person born in the wrong time period.

What's the bow that you use? Trying to get into archery myself...not looking to splurge, but I'm wondering if you have any suggestions for a serious beginner?

The mongols did keep a written record. After the conquest of China and Persia, they had to rule a very large empire and developed an educated class. It is unfortunate that the Chinese probably burned most court documents after the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, but some stories do remain (I can't read them). Also, the Saracens seemed to be more impressed by the lack of effect their arrows had on Frankish troops than by the skills of western archers.

I've shot a lot of moving targets rotating targets and threw discs I have shot 3 simultaneously threw discs sincerely, Lars Andersen

Week into archery here, Grizzly Bear Recurve one piece. How are you notching the arrows so quickly? I can get my aim up in about three seconds with decent accuracy, but notching it is what kills my time.

Back at you bud.

It is praiseworthy to study what masters have accomplished before and try to emulate them. Do you teach your methods?

And to think--this is the minimum standard. ALL of the archers back then were this good. Scary.

@Graywolf116 Good to know! Do you have any videos of you shooting this way?

I tried this a bit and i think i figured it out but it was very tricky nocking the arrows in a smooth fashion. Where do you hold the spare arrows, like in front of the fletching, by the fletching, or by the nocks?
