i fletch arrows and goose is as nice as eagle
but not as beautiful
Why not paint them?
eagle is much softer
more sturdy
what do you need them for?
pillow?
fletching arrows
I just remember I have like 200 arrows in my basement that I need to refletch.
sheet
Whatever, it's going to be raining nonstop until winter where I am and I only have a laminite bow
I am about to drop a big purchase on bamboo shafts on alibaba soon, hope they will be straight
I really doubt that.
But it's not hard to do yourself
well you can buy them here in europe too, same shit but for 7x the price
What are you even doing with bamboo shafts?
Just get carbon fiber or fiber glass
kyudo, japanese archery
wanna build some war arrows
Japs have a stupid scoring system and it's boring to watch, why would a euro do that when there's a HEMA club around every corner and a good one in every city?
I did western archery before but it was too competitive for me, all of the archers were assholes
Isn't there points for style?
there are often 2 tournaments, 1 for hitting and 1 for style
>tfw short sighted
nice hobbies you have there
me too, just get contact lenses
What are glasses and blinders?
I lack a proper 3D view with contact lenses for some reason
you don't?
-7 dioptrin on my left eye, half blind
not that much
I can't drive a car with contact lenses
with glasses is fine
but with contact lenses I kill people
you can shoot with glasses too, its no biggie
I got astigmatism out the ass, shit is hard and I thought I was just retarded. Turns out I'm left eye dominant so I need to squint one eye or kind of guess which target is the right one
yeah, when aiming I see two targets too
have to use some intuition
It's easy enough for pistol shooting because I can kind of cock my head over and use my left but rifle shooting is near impossible bith eyes open because I'm a filthy American who needs my cheekweld.
