Archers Paradox on a Recurve Bow 

Archers paradox only refers to a bow without a cutout for the arrow rest. Then the arrow is not directly pointing at the target and needs to flex around the bow to hit the target. With a cutout, almost every single bow today, what you are seeing is simply arrow flex. there is no paradox here! The original paradox was how can an arrow pointed to the left of a target when released hit the target. Thus, pointing one way but hitting the target in the other way. A paradox.

Da neofita non avevo avuto la percezione dell'importanza di questo fenomeno. Successivamente ho capito che la sua comprensone è la base per realizzare un corretto setup del ricurvo. La freccia che con l'arco in asse deve uscire leggermente verso l'esterno della finestra è il punto di partenza per ottenere una corretta dinamica della freccia. Successivamente regolazione del bottone per correggere le deviazione DX / SX.

@princerexor See how the arrow flexes like a wet noodle when it's released? We call this the paradox.

This is the best showing of a paradox on RU-vid, in my opinion.

Nice video, clear example. A question, at how many frames per second (fps) was this video recorded? Thanks!

The "paradox" states that the arrow changes direction and goes around the bow, This footage does not show that, this arrow continues it's trajectory oscillating of course, oscillating is not the archers paradox.

superb shot of 'paradox' and excellent clearence!

This shows spine, not the archer's paradox

No paradox here.. The riser shelf is cut out.. That's just arrow flex..
