Archery Its History And Forms

I made this video twenty-five years ago, in 1995. Some of it is looking a bit dated now and I have adjusted some of my thoughts about power, range and penetration with regards to the longbow. Current thinking on these issues is much better expressed in my book 'WAR BOWS'. However I thought it was time to make this old film freely available to a new audience. It was filmed on location in the glorious grounds of Knebworth House with a group of dear friends (some sadly no longer with us). I have happy memories of making it. It was intended as a celebration of much of the wonderful diversity that a study of historical archery offers. I hope that, in some ways it still does that
