    Wait I’m sorry what? No breast protection, no forearm protection, literally no protection whatsoever? And what does she think is gonna happen when she releases the arrow? That the string is gonna magically just loose all its momentum?

      If Arch only boots for virgins, Monroe had to be a Slackware user.

        And hit jack shit because her arrow is super not straight in relation with her eyes ( for aiming )

        … Still an awesome picture though. I just shiver to imagine they let her do it AND let her do it so badly lol

          Looking along the arrow for a traditional recurve is a good way to miss, there’s generally nothing to line up unless you fit a sight to the bow. It’s all by feel

            Euh, what. Ye, no. I do archery with a recurve, no attachments or anything. Left eye is dominant, so right hand holds the bow, arrow is on the left side of the bow and left hand pulls back. Now, i do stringwalking so the arrow is higher up, but thats because my right eye is shit and i have bad focus.
            Left hand under my left jaw. Arrow is a straight line from left eye to bow and to the target down the range.
            If you have an indentation in the grip like i do, then its straight. If you dont then yes its slightly off, but thats practice and even then its pretty straight if you hold it right…
