Topic: How to learn traditional korean archery in Canada?

Hi everyone,

My name is Luke and I live in the lower mainland of BC, Canada.

I'm interested in learning the art of traditional korean archery. However, I'm not sure how to start this journey.

Are there books, or online resources that I can read to get my foot in the door? If so, what are your recommendations??
Also, is there an institute or anyone out here in Canada that teaches traditional korean archery?

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Luke

Your best bet right now is to buy one of these books:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=korean+tradi … _sb_noss_2

I have the third and I'd say its pretty useful but am not at all familiar with the other two which are newer versions of the same subject.  They are of course by the same author who is head admin here and goes by bluelake on this forum.  You can reach out to him here for further insight regarding these two books and other questions or concerns if you can't get all the information you need here on this thread or forum.  More contact and bow information can be found here as well:
