    Sun Devil Archery at Arizona State University Risk Assessment / Safety Report Sun Devil Archery at ASU Page 1 of 42 Risk Assessment/Safety Report September 12, 2005 History of ARCHERY Archery is one of the oldest arts of ancient times which is still practiced today. From its first development until the 1500s, the bow was man's constant companion and has been the most widely used of all weapons in recorded history. The bow allowed the prehistoric human to become the most efficient hunter on earth, providing him safety, food and raw materials such as bone, sinew and hide. From that time on, archery has played an important role in many of the world's civilizations. Starting with the reign of William the Conqueror, the bow was England's principal weapon of national defense for several centuries. Around the year 1200, Genghis Khan and his Mongol hordes conquered much of the known world employing short, powerful bows. For Native Americans, archery was the means of subsistence and existence during the days of English and later American colonization. Finally, after the bow's replacement by firearms as a weapon of war, archery became a favored sport, thus securing its continuous practice throughout history. According to Encyclopedia Britannica, archery's importance as a cultural advance ranks with the development of speed and the art of making fire. The use of the bow appears in folklore from over 3000 years ago, although its invention predates that era. The development of archery followed a course of key innovations by many historical cultures. About 3500 BC., Egyptians were using bows as tall as themselves.

  • Traditional Archers of Oregon User Group Growth
    02 December, 2016 ODFW Commission meeting December 02, 2016 RE: Public Testimony, 2017 Big Game Regulations User group growth, Traditional Archery Chair Finley, Members of the Commission, Director Melcher, for the record, my name is Carson Brown, Secretary, TRADITIONAL ARCHERS OF OREGON (TAO). TAO continues to invest in activities where we promote and instruct traditional equipment usage for people having strong interest in shooting the long bow and recurve bow. As illustrated through TAO’s sponsorship of the OREGON ARCHERY HERITAGE MUSEUM, Oregon’s incredibly rich bowhunting heritage rivals that of any state in the United States. One of the original purposes for forming TAO was to ensure traditional equipment was not forgotten with the proliferation of modern archery - that was 1984. Over the years, you have graciously listened to our previous testimonies where TAO has related how continued adoption of mechanical and technological improvements have greatly increased advantage to the hunter and the overriding concern of our membership being continued loss of opportunity in the field. Today I am providing testimony on behalf of a TAO committee charged with the objective to further the role of Traditional Archery as a management tool that would provide opportunity while minimizing resource impact. The committee members are experienced archery hunters, with knowledge of big game regulations and Oregon archery history. The major objectives outlined by the committee: 1) Recognize and grow traditional archers as a user group and that our choice in equipment provides more opportunity with less resource impact. 2) To support that notion, add archery tackle details to the MANDATORY HUNTER REPORTING SYSTEM (DO YOU USE: ☐ COMPOUND BOW or ☐RECURVE/LONG BOW?).

    UC Berkeley Berkeley Undergraduate Journal of Classics Title Bow Designs on Ancient Greek Vases Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3rh4f9jd Journal Berkeley Undergraduate Journal of Classics, 5(2) ISSN 2373-7115 Author Bowyer, Emily S Publication Date 2017 Peer reviewed|Undergraduate eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Bow Designs on Ancient Greek Vases Emily Bowyer University of California, Los Angeles Classical Civilizations Class of 2017 Abstract: This research looks to investigate the designs of ancient bows depicted on ancient Greek pottery. The goal is to show that the bows most commonly shown are not native to the Greek mainland but rather are from Scythia and Egypt. This has been done by examining a number of vases, pyramid friezes, and modern bow reconstructions. The common use of the Scythian design for archer characters in scenes of myth implies a familiarity with archery primarily through the Scythian mercenaries. The Egyptian acacia deflex bow design, while rare in vase depictions, directly corresponds to images on pyramids. The Egyptian angular composite bow appears in a rare case on a Greek vase, but its depiction is consistent with modern historical reconstructions. Through showing these non-native bow origins, this paper hopes to further demonstrate the worldly influences on archaic Greece. The practice of archery is ancient, as is its depiction in art. Analysis of the bow’s form provides a unique insight into the ancient world. This is because a culture’s bow design is a direct reflection of its environment. From the single-piece English Yew longbow to the massive Japanese Yumi to the compact Mongolian horse bow, the available materials dictate the form of the tool.

  • Topics on Archery Mechanics Joe Tapley
    Topics on Archery Mechanics Joe Tapley Topics on Archery Mechanics Introduction The basic physics of archery has in principle been understood for around 80 years. The last topic to be theoretically described was vortex shedding (aerodynamics) in the 1920's related to developments in the aircraft industry. While the principles of archery are understood, in practice the behaviour of the bow/arrow/archer system (termed 'interior ballistics') and the arrow in flight (termed 'exterior ballistics') are somewhat complicated. In order to understand the mechanics of archery computer models are required. Models related to interior ballistics have been developed over the years becoming more realistic (and complex). A few related papers are listed below: Kooi, B.W. 1994. The Design of the Bow. Proc.Kon.Ned.Akad. v. Wetensch , 97(3), 283-309 The design and construction of various bow types is investigated and a mathematical model is used to assess the resulting effects on the (point mass) shot arrow. Kooi, B.W. & Bergman, C.A. 1997. An approach to the study of Ancient Archery using Mathematical Modelling. Antiquity, 71:124-134. Interesting comparison between the characteristics and performance of various historical and current bow designs. Kooi, B.W. & Sparenberg, J. A. 1997. On the Mechanics of the Arrow: Archer's Paradox. Journal of Engineering Mathematics 31(4):285-306 A mathematical model of the behaviour of the arrow when being shot from a bow including the effects of the pressure button and bow torsional rigidity. The string forces applied to the arrow are derived from the bow model referenced above.

Editorial by Morten Wilmann, Chairman Dear Judges, When writing this editorial we are just up front of the Olympics. For judges on duty for that event, it is starting to be a bit thrilling. Some athletes are saying that this “is only one event like other events”, and some may regard it as such (although I doubt if they manage). In spite of recent news about extensive doping in some sports and in some countries, I still think that the Olympics stands out as a very special event, well regarded and connected with “personal glory” for the winners. Archery in the Olympics 2016 – in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil – takes place in the famous street of the Sanbodromo where the carnival regularly takes place, again a rather iconic place for archery. These are surroundings that may add some thrill to the competition, and your committee is confident that our judges will perform at the same top level as the archers – in spite of the possible stress of the moments.

  • Discussing Draw Length
    Discussing Draw Length The "Perfect" Draw Length Your own "perfect draw length" is the draw length setting at which you are the most comfortable and the most accurate. There is no right and wrong, no absolutes. But it is unlikely that a 5'10" guy will be successful with a 30" draw length, and similarly unlikely that a 6'3" guy will shoot well with a 28" draw length.......not impossible - just unlikely. For some, a "perfect draw length" may be ultimately determined by feel (and some trial and error) rather than by calculation. However, we still recommend a common-sense approach here. If you're new to the sport, you'll have better luck if you just play the averages and choose an initial draw length that's similar to others of your same size and stature. Fortunately, on most bows, making a minor draw length change is pretty simple. So it's not quite a life or death decision to start. However, as you become more immersed in the sport and begin to "fine-tune" your game, you may wish to experiment a little with your draw length. Why Draw Length Matters More Draw Length = More Power The longer your draw length, the longer your bow's power stroke will be - and the faster your bow will shoot. As a general rule, 1" of draw length is worth about 10 fps of arrow velocity. Bows are predominantly IBO Speed* rated at 30" draw length. So if your particular bow has an IBO speed of 300 fps, and you intend to shoot the bow at 27" draw length - you should expect an approximate 30 fps loss in speed.

  • Blazer Vanes How to Remove Arrow Wraps Cleaning Arrow Shafts
    Here are the answers to the most commonly-asked questions about Bohning Archery products, including information about fletching arrows, fletching Blazer vanes, the Bohning Blazer jig, arrow wraps, quiver topics, and more. If you have a question that isn't answered here, please contact us for assistance. Blazer Vanes Do Blazer vanes work with broadheads? Blazer vanes are designed to be used with fixed and mechanical broadheads. They also work very well with field points and can be used for target shooting. How should Blazer vanes be fletched? Blazer vanes should be fletched in the same location as any other vane. We recommend a three-degree right helical, using our Blazer Helix Jig or Helix Tower Fletching Jig ™; or a two-degree offset, using our Pro-Class Fletching Jig. How to Remove Arrow Wraps What are the best ways to remove ArroWraps brand arrow wraps from a shaft? There are different options for removing ArroWraps: • Soak the ArroWrap in hot tap water for 5 minutes, and then peel it off. • Heat the ArroWrap with a hair dryer and then peel it off. • Scrape the ArroWrap off the shaft using Bohning's Stripper tool. Always clean the shaft well after removing an ArroWrap. How can vanes or feathers be replaced without damaging a shaft that has an ArroWrap brand arrow wrap or crest? Unfortunately, vanes or feathers cannot easily be replaced without damaging the crest. Cleaning Arrow Shafts What is the best method for cleaning arrow shafts? Clean arrow shafts by scrubbing with an abrasive pad (such as Scotch Brite®), using water and a good degreasing soap, such as Bohning SSR Arrow Shaft Surface Cleaner.
