Training a Medieval Bowman

In this video, discover what it took to become a bowman of England. Kevin Hicks, longtime professional bowman himself, explores the training young men had to undertake by law and how they kept up their skills.

A big thanks Arjen at Kielstra Holsteins farm for allowing us to shoot on location there. It was a great pleasure to meet Jan, Arjen's son. You might want to check out Jan's YouTube channel, ‪@saskdutchkid‬ to see what it really takes to upkeep a farm. Jeremy Clarkson eat your heart out 😜
