Shooting barebow recurve / horsebow is one of the most zen-like experiences I've had. And it's a workout!
I would encourage anyone remotely interested to take lessons before you start practicing on your own to prevent bad habits or to prevent from hurting your fingers/hands/shoulders. Trainers should have light-weight bows, around 16# or so for you to try.
Etsy is a good place to buy accessories (tabs, quivers, gloves, rings, etc.).
I've bought arrows/bows from these folks and really like what I received:

And for less expensive carbon arrows, I have a few different sets from https://linkboyarchery.com/ https://linkboyarchery.com/. Really good stuff.
Lancasterarchery.com is a US-based outfit that has a variety of good equipment.

- hermitcrab 2y agoShooting a bow and riding a horse are difficult enough activities on their own. I can't imagine how hard it must be to be able to competently shoot a bow from a fast moving horse.
