The Skill of Kevin Hicks.mov 

People like Kevin are a throwback to older times, a time when performers like this were the norm, they were skilled men in arms, the arts and performance - they were bards, warriors and historians rolled into one. Give me this kind of entertainment over what passes for it today ... Kevin is a legend!

Bowmanship and Showmanship.... Well gifted in both.

Hey Dave - a great piece of filming! I'm still shooting, but I must be honest I do miss the audiences of Warwick. Hope you're doing well - give us a call sometime. Kevin

Definitely subscribe to The History Squad, Kevin is a brilliant storyteller.

Nice to see "Reenactor" that actually knows what war is about.

Wonderful, Kevin changed my life! being an archer reenactor with the 'little Saxon' as he called my son. Good luck to you fella wherever you are now. ,

I just found Kevin's channel and now this older stuff, and its awesome. I really wish I could have been there to see it in person!

He is awesome, isn't he? I watch all his videos and find them funny, informative and downright entertaining.

Kevin Hicks is a true legend!

Good to see Kevin young and hale.

Love watching any video with keven Hicks. Great archer and great story teller

excellent. i am an archer this guy is fantastic with a long bow, well done and great video

Fanbloodytastic ! Shooting an English long bow has been on my bucket list for a while. Just because of my northumbrian lineage. Thank you for this upload.

Kevin is a great entertainer with some serious amount of skill!

These films are fantastic regarding Kevin Hicks. I have seen a couple of him, giving talks and the art of using the weapon from people that have filmed him . I have only just discovered his channel, so it was interesting to see the younger man. I started to get fascinated by the Long Bow. His name popped up and i was hooked by his story telling / skill and his funny way of telling them. He can sometimes be quite intense which is another great trait. He also has a fair amount of acting talent. If you watch his channel you will know what i mean. Thanks for sharing this.

This is great! Thanks for sharing. I love The History Squad channel. Cool to see Kevin isn't full of it. 🤭

Awesome footage..thanks so much for sharing..and we all hope that Kevin is still around,entertaining everyone..

Kev is a gifted showman.

Thank you so much -- I enjoyed this immensely

If you'd like to see more from Kevin Hicks, I discovered that he recently started his own youtube channel, called thehistorysquad. ru-vid.comvideos Lots of great content there.

Amazing skill, thanks for sharing your footage. I've been to Warwick castle, thoroughly enjoyed the day.

What a performance with English longbow!!😀😀

Wonderful display of talent and charisma.

Wow that was really awesome...great shooting !!

Great video of Kevin

He is awesome. An clever and witty.

I saw the bowman at Warwick castle. He was cool as fuck. Even got a kid to stand in front of the target and drew the bow fully while aiming at the wee man. Thought he was gonna shit his pants.

Wish I was half as good as this with my longbow.

Awesome as usual ...from and American fan

Anyone else see him point the bow at the crowd and pull the arrow back? 😳

i love kevin. he is awesome in everything :D

i would love to see more footage of Kevin Hicks the granddad iv all ways wanted xD

This guy is awesome.

Good on ya Mate

this is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This guy must be a riot at parties

Awesome bowmanship and I am a mongolian bow guy.

Fucking legend.

Well shit I want a long bow now!

Does he have a slight recurve to his bow tips ?

@Kevin Hicks - late to the party here, but ... wow. Boring technical question, what's the draw weight on your bow? Cheers

He didn't hit the head with the first arrow he shot at it, look at the amount of arrows in his belt before the shot and the amount he has after the shot.

Does anyone know the draw weight of the bow he was using?

Intro song name?

to hit that far accurately you would need at least 60lb but he pulls it like it's 30.

👏👏👏😆

50 Yards? 🏹🎯

I think, in the(ire) old days, they where not stupid. They had several techniquis. Depending on the target / purpose. We (also) must be able to compete with the FITA shooters..

👍👍👍

Legolas' got nothing on him =P

The website listed is dead, maybe you can explain what we were meant to find out there in the video and spare us having to dig or hunt the man down individually, or just in the description?

why are they laughing.

Awesome
