An interesting, if rather poorly translated, video of an old technique given new life. There is a little dubious interpretation of efficacy when it comes to the penetrative power of a part drawn bow versus armour (the usual misconception that comes from not understanding how layered armour works) but it was nice to see something that was new to me :thumbs up:.
