Yeah. I just sat here stunned for a few minutes. Now imagine 10,000 archers of the same skill level in an actual battle back in the day. :shock: :shock: Don't know about anyone else, but I'd want to be someplace else!

Unreal stuff there. Not only hand speed, but you gotta have better eyes than mine to do that stuff!

As a retired Combat Arms Instructor, and someone who likes to send an arrow down range in my backyard from time to time, this was Sierra Hotel! This was the first I've ever seen of combat tactics combined with archery.

Thanks Gene, I'm gonna start on this tomorrow! :wink:

Maybe you should check with your doc before you go bouncing off walls with sharp objects in your hand. :wink: :D

Lars is well known in European circles, But unfortunately he is not so well known on this side of the pond.We all have a lot to learn if we just open our eyes to what is happening around us. Myself, I am too much of a klutz to attempt any of his moving shots.
