Title: Recommendation on masters of the barebow volume?
Post by: Silent footed on April 02, 2021, 10:39:34 PM

Guys, I'm a swing draw, snap shooting, split vision, hill-style archer), with a longbow. Also getting back into aerial archery after a few years of not doing it.

Any particular volumes that might lean heavily on these styles? Thinking of picking up one or two..

The first couple of volumes are a review of many styles of shooting, while the later ones get pretty specific into the draw and hold style.  I'm pretty sure you would enjoy volumes 1 and 2, and you can make up your own mind from there.  Volume 2 also has an interesting section on arrow tuning by Ken Beck of Black Widow.

However, if you are strictly a snap shooter and not interested in other styles, there are videos other than MBB out there that you might like better.

I would say Volume 1 is my favorite because as an primarily a instinctive shooter Dean Torges section is as close as I would compare my shot to anyone else's. It also helps to see his relaxed attitude and simple approach.
