I find that wearing an armguard also helps visually with the form. When my form gets sloppy, it's easier to notice that my arm is rotated incorrectly if I can see the armguard being misaligned.

That point about preserving speed is a great point I'd never been taught before. Thanks for teaching it. I would like to add a warning for anyone that shoots high poundage longbows though. While Nu-Sensei's advice may be true for recurves, longbows are a much different story. The combination of high poundage and short brace height means you can get some very serious injuries to the wrist area if you mis-shoot badly enough, including heavy bruising, damaged blood vessels, or hematoma. If you shoot a high-poundage longbow, wear an arm guard. Period.

Aye, and medieval bracers, such as those found on the Mary Rose warship, were a well-constructed, well-decorated and essential piece of equipment for every archer. At around 160lb draw weight those bows were not trivial things.
@seanyouknowwho798

Nice video! While you sort of hit on my point, the arm guard does keep clothing tucked in and away from the path of the bow string. Even with a proper hold and elbow position, wearing heavy clothing can obstruct the bow string path. This is more of an issue while hunting with heavy clothing. As always, great videos!

Really great overview. I've seen some guys get some bad bow kisses for not listening to the coach.... That said, I often find that even with light bows, arm-guards on kids will help them from developing a flinch, especially those with hyper-extensive elbows. But that is more a coaches line of thinking than someone teaching themselves. Though if anyone is thinking of teaching their kid, its probably worth making sure they have a good experience, and bow bites really limit that. With little ones, (10-14 or so) you may need to cover past the elbow in case the elbow flexes inwards. Some kids don't have the strength for long to hold a straight arm, if they cannot lock the elbow. Shooting both left and right can help them build the strength, and I don't think hampers their overall shooting skill. In fact I shoot ambi when practicing with lighter bows just because I can, and I find it helps me stick to fundamentals.

I use a leather bracer, mostly because it looks cool and goes with my glove. I rarely hit myself anymore, I probably don’t need it, but it’s become part of my uniform, when I put on my glove and bracer, I feel like I’m ready to shoot. It’s habit more than anything. If I only had one of those plastic things, I probably would have stopped using it months ago, for me there is nothing enjoyable about wearing modern plastic arm guards.

Thank you Nu! I just picked up archery a little under a month ago and always feel a little self conscious using an arm guard at the range, especially since many of the archers I’m shooting with are far more experienced. That said, when I did my initial archery training I did it without protection, and after 5 hours of shooting a 30 lb. bow I had red and black welts going up and down my arm (also completely numb fingertips, it was a rough week afterward). Just goes to show a little protection goes a long way.

@McJaews
@McJaews 5 лет назад
I like my armguard. Very occasionally my string hits it, and it saves me from having minor pain and bruising on my arm for days. If I'm wearing long sleeves, my armguard keeps the sleeve from getting in the way of the string. It's a piece of modern day armor that is both practical and comfortable. Shooting my bow without it feels weird. Now chest guards on the other hand...
@jimbolt5170
@jimbolt5170 5 лет назад
Good explanation. As others have said, they keep clothing out of the way. And, don’t forget the cool factor, for traditional leather arm guards, anyway. Just don’t go overboard with it, because then, instead of the cool factor, it becomes the “where in the world did that guy come from?” factor. :)
@SergeyParshin
@SergeyParshin 5 лет назад
On my previous bow I was getting a lot if string vibrations AFTER the string has left the bow. And that's another reason to have an arm guard, as these vibrations can reach the arm. It doesn't sting much, just some not very energetic slap. But if this repeatedly happena for a duration of a few hours - it can get painful.

When I'm shooting my recurve, I don't wear one because I simply don't hit my arm. But sometimes if I'm shooting my longbow I'll accidentally hit my arm and get a raised welt that will just keep getting hit again and again after that, so the arm guard goes on. I shoot longbow just like my recurve, but it's much easier to hit my arm with it. I guess it's the far more narrow handle, and maybe the shorter brace height has a little to do with it? Not sure about that second reason, if it is that it has something to do with how the string is rebounding maybe. I would need a high speed camera to know.

As a humble intermediate archer i find it preserves form. If i slap myself in the arm the next shot i execute i will consciously move my arm away from the path of my string. I wear a leather neet armguard that is so thick the only way i know i hit it is the noise from the shot, and like the koreans i tend to focus on other things like maintaining good back tension instead of whether or not im going to hit my arm.
@ZanthiaAlchemistress

I am much more likely to hit my arm if I don't wear one (or I wear one that feels different). Also, it doesn't take more than a few hits before you change your form to try to avoid it.

I now shoot thumb release and Asiatic bows, so no reason to, however, back many years ago, when I shot a120lb Longbow, I did wear one, after a hour using that, your form tended to suffer a bit and you might slap your arm, in the Winter, in the UK, it also kept your sleeve out the way, not all of us live in Australia!

Thanks for this video, I do not use a arm guard, I guess I use better bow grip form "naturally" now, or through watching videos like this one I've never had the use for one. Here in Thailand, where high humidity exists, and the sweat drips down my arm, it just making conditions very uncomfortable to use one. When I was a young boy in California, had to use one, where I was gripping my bow like it was going to run away from me, and the string would smack me on the forearm every shot. I also set up my bow properly. Lesson learned, where before I was unlearned, with the bow. Thanks !!!
@finnishfatman
@finnishfatman 5 лет назад
I shoot composite bow so normally I wouldn't have much need for arm guard, but when it gets cold here in Finland and I have thick coat on me, I like to put that arm guard so my sleeve won't interfere with my shooting, because it can easily get in the way when I'm out doors shooting. So not so much to protect my hand, but more to keep things away from the string :P

@leeprice133 5 лет назад
It's a very rare occasion now that I actually hit my arm. That said, I hit my arm black and blue when I started out, and for whatever reason if I don't use an arm guard now, I seem to subconsciously do things to avoid hitting my arm that either: a) make my shot worse or; b) actually make me *more* likely to hit my arm (don't really understand that one myself!)
@SelinicaHarbinger
@SelinicaHarbinger 5 лет назад
I've never had the string catch my elbow somehow. I did have it catch on my chest though so I'll never not use a chestguard after that. I can vouch for the affect on the arrow, I did have the string scrape down my forearm on a bad shot and it ended up throwing my rest somewhere and the arrow clipped the riser bad enough to break off part of the arrow and take out a chunk of the riser.
@patricj951
@patricj951 Год назад
Not necessarily. But it can be good to have. The fastest part of the string has the same speed as the arrow and can indeed be painful and result in a big bruise.
@JeffreyHawkins
@JeffreyHawkins 5 лет назад
Reminds me of weightlifters who mock those who use a squat pad... Until you show them pictures of Arnold Schwarzenegger squatting several hundred pounds with one. I did find though, that not using an armguard can teach one proper form really quickly. Especially with a hard cam hunting bow and very light arrows. One lazy shot resulting in an arm hit caused me to run down a mental checklist and take a relaxation breath for every shot for weeks after.
@vepristhorn8278
@vepristhorn8278 5 лет назад
It seems to be personal opinion, I don't like using one because it lets me know when I make a mistake, I find pain to be an excellent instructor. I do use one when shooting my horse bow as that strike almost every time and can and has broken skin, once I find out what the problem is I will stop using it. I had never heard of using the armguard to prevent the fouling of a shot, I could see doing this in competition but I'd still rather train without one. On the chest guard you can get massive bruises from the string without one.
@NUSensei
@NUSensei 5 лет назад
I find that "pain is a teacher" is common, but as a teacher I don't agree with it. It tells you when you are doing it wrong, but it doesn't show you how to fix it. Additionally, many beginners get into the mindset of "it must be me", when there are other causes of string slap, and they might end up with awkward form trying to avoid something that wasn't their fault.

The best Thing about the guards is, that the brain dont think "maybe it will be hurting" when you aiming. When i forgot the armguard and the string hits my arm, the next 20 to 30 arrows are Not so acurate because of Not correct bodyposition or fear in the deeper mind that it will be happen again.

I use my arm guard when shooting carbon arrows, I have seen the damage they can do, one archer had to have splintered shards of carbon removed from his forearm after his carbon arrow exploded upon release, the splintered shards entered his arm half way down the inside of his forearm & exited through his wrist/hand. This horrific injury could have been avoided if an arm gaurd had been used. It's not the string that bothers me - we have all had a string slap, it stings a bit - but if a carbon arrow let's go you will have permanent damage & scarring.

David Zermeno not saying don’t use one as I’ve seen photos of feathers ripping into flesh, but you don’t actually have to have one. If you nock the arrow a little higher you will find the feathers no longer scratch you. I use a Korean horsebow, and I can shoot all day without a glove on the bow hand without any scratching. But again, I’d always tend to use a glove just in case, but if you ever want/need to shoot without one, just nock a little higher, the arrow comes off your hand without the feathers hurting you.

@ChaiSuBin 5 лет назад
Being an archery instructor myself. Experienced archers may start getting string slaps about 80% of their daily shots in. That could be after 50 or even 200 arrows. It just depends on the stamina and training of the archer. When you get tired, your form suffers slightly. And that may cause string slaps. You would only see someone complaining their nipples got snagged when drawing a bow is when that shooter is a novice. When they tend to draw the bow awkwardly towards the outside too far, and then the string catches onto their nips and they yelp in pain. lol

There is another argument not to use an arm-guard: its a lot more comfortable without one, and personally I kept thinking about the arm-guard even after over 1.5 years of shooting with it and I genuinely think that the removing the discomfort of an arm-guard might improve the shooting. This is not a fact just an opinion from a not experienced archer with only 3 years of practice.

Do you need an arm guard....yes, yes you do... if I only had photos of some of my bruises when I didn’t wear one. Saves your arm for the times you get lazy with technique.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JbtqLM9kZVs.html If you look at this video you see THAT you will need an arm guard. Look at the video from 0:17 in speed 0,25 and you can see that the string hit the arm guard many times because of the finger release (the reason for arrow paradoxon as well). Further you can see it here: www.wernerbeiter.com/bilder/produkte/videos/Armschutz-Soft_fuer-Internet.wmv (One high speed video from Werner Beiter)

As I said in the video, it's not uncommon for modern recurve shooters to tap the armguard due to modern form, which is why top shooters still use them - though many clearly don't come close to hitting their arm. In the same video, however, we clearly see that compound shooters *don't* use an armguard. Furthermore, many traditional archers choose not to use one. It's useful to most, recommended for some, needed by others, but universally required.

Compound archers do NOT use armguards because there is no arrow paradox by using a release. The string will go straight in front without "jumping "from one to the other side. From traditional archers (at least here in Germany) I have heared many times, WHY they do NOT use an armguard, It's the funny saying: "REAL man/archers do NOT need an armguard!" xD I ALWAYS recommend an armguard for RECURVE archers and SOMETIMES for COMPOUND archers (especially for beginners).

Do you need one? Only if you prefer to use one. Saved you 6:49.
