Excellent tutorial ! There’s nothing better than learning from a well seasoned archer thats willing to share their hard earned knowledge!

Good job RC. Young beginning bowyers need to see these things an it don,t hurt the older ones to maybe learn something new. There's always a better way. A life lived for Christ is the greater way . Thanks for the great video. Looking forward to the next one. God bless an keep you an your family safe an well.

Excellent tutorial! I bought myself a longbow 4 years back and I haven’t gotten real far. I’m watching your tutorial on set up, but you have explained it much better than any of the other videos I have seen. Also, I’m new to stick bow hunting, but not new to Christ. I agreed, don’t complicate a new believer up, keep Christ as the focus!

Another great video RC!!! Fortunately I was taught all this stuff years ago, but you are spot on keep it as simple as it needs to be!!!! God bless you!

Excellent video as usual Robert you covered the basics how to set up a bow perfectly exactly the way I approach each one .as guys who have been doing this for a long time we take it for granted but this is such simple basic stuff that every Hunter / Archer should know.

Amen, simple, simple, simple! Keep it simple and easy for that is what it is supposed to be. Too many make it a lot harder than what it is supposed to be and that applies to salvation as well. There is no need, especially with a longbow to have to go to a pro shop for anything work wise. some make their own strings, some don't. Once you get a bow square and some don't even use one because of a practiced eye but a good simple square will last forever. You don't have to use wool if you don't have some but it works so much better, especially in wet weather. Then the next important thing for a bow is wax for the string to protect it. An awesome video for the beginner as well as some that don't realize how easy and simple it can be. Longbows are simple and awesome in so many ways. Keep em coming Brother

I’m glad you made this video Mr.Carter. I’ve sat here going over this no to long ago and was wondering if there was anything I missed when you went over this with me.

Another use for dental floss. Not my idea ... friend clued me. If nock's fit on served string is bit more loose than ya prefer, wrap dental floss between nock points until nock fit is perfect. Use super glue to adhere dental floss in place. Then go shoot some arras! Thanks for taking time to illustrate how ya setup your bows.

@smoothvern165 Ай бұрын

Great video! I’ve been doing this for decades, and I really like the way you tie on nocking points. Better than the way I’ve always done it! I’m really looking forward to the rest of this series. I’m always learning better ways to do things.

I use a brass Nock sometimes 2 stacked if serving is even on string where nocking point is or nocks are really thin but then again, I am using a Glove and I am having he crimp facing away from handle and in a teardrop shape so ends are mashed into each other. I have yet to have one eat a serving on a properly made string.

Thanks for sharing. As a recent convert to traditional, your simple approach is refreshing. I’ll be grabbing some yarn at Hobby Lobby this week. How does the yarn handle water?

@robertcarte95 Ай бұрын

Get wool yarn and it will shed water with a slight pop of the string.

Robert does your square and tape measure measurements jive with one another when measuring brace height? My square is off by 1/8”. Can’t remember if it reads long or short at this moment, but if I measure with a tape measure (the method I actually use) and then measure with a bow square, the square is off 1/8”.

@robertcarte95 Ай бұрын

It's the distance of the string clips. I account for it

@bowhuntingsoul2149 Ай бұрын

@@robertcarte95 no I get that, but if you measure the brace the way you show (short side to the grip, long side towards string) it will be off 1/8”. If you clip it to the string and measure towards the grip it is accurate . I don’t think most people know that. Gotta be smarter than the tool I guess lol

You did a good job on this, Robert. I've been shooting these hill-style longbows for around 40 years, and have been making my own strings and arrows also. I like to use string material or serving to tie my nocks on with. I only use one nocking point where the arrow is above it. It's a little quicker for me getting the arrow on the string and without looking. I've noticed over the years that most longbowmen use a higher brace height than I. Bin shooting a 70-inch Hill style longbow lately, and like the BH right at 6 in. I use a simple method of measuring brace height in the field by placing my fist on the riser and sticking my thumb up. I like the string to be in the center of my thumbnail. This measurement is what used to be called "fistmill" I don't use string silencers on an American style longbow, but many do. Congratulations on acquiring a Sunset Hill longbow, they are hard to come by. Nate builds the finest Hill style long bows in the country. More than this though, I appreciate you telling the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
