Hi,

Anybody know anything about this new movie in Korea?:

Looks like they use pyonjun in it as well:

Hi bluelake,

Thanks a lot for the info.

I have made sure that I followed all of the points you have made in your reply and placed the nock on my bow in the position detailed in your book (which is fantastic by the way).

I feel that my technique is correct (obviously room for improvement) and am still struggling to get a consistent aim even at 20 metres. The arrows still seem to be veering off to the left. I guess I will continue to practice and hopefully I will improve.

It's frustrating because with a Western recurve bow I could hit the bullseye (yellow) at 20 metres more or less straight away but am still struggling to hit it at all with my Korean bow.

Any further tips are greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Nick

Hi,

I am just getting started with Korean archery and am struggling with consistent aiming. I have a Kaya KTB 30lb. First session I shot, the arrows were going wildly to the right. I had a feeling the arrows were too heavy that time so switched to carbon fibre arrows which was a vast improvement but the arrows are still going off to the right.

Are there any direct 'rules' for aiming with Korean style? I see from various photos and videos on the net that a lot of people have the string touching their chest and face at full draw. Is that generally how everything does it?

I felt that I had the arrow right under my eye and point of the arrow aiming at the target but it always goes to the right of where I feel it should. I am shooting at a short distance by the way.

Are regular carbon fibre arrows suitable with my Kaya KTB 30lb?

Many Thanks,
Nick
