Mounted Archery Demo at SCA event

Post by hesinraca »

Hey! We just did our first official mounted archery demo at an SCA event, which is a breakthrough considering how strict the SCA is with archery. That's me in the white shirt on the plump gray horse, Katie on the white arab, and Holm on the darker gray. Any comments/thoughts/concerns/hopes/dreams?

Hmm, well the youtube one should be working eventually... the video is on Katie's account so I can't alter its viewability until she gets home.

We'll I embeded the video in my site, so it should be here: http://winterwolfforge.com/ at the main page, or click blog.

Thank you! I'm really excited actually, I look a lot better out there then I thought, and apparently a few people thought I'd been riding for a long time. Guess learning from one of the best and getting hounded a lot really pays off;)

PS - ranger get together + mounted and ground archery seminar/lessons/practice? Yeah?

Wow that's pretty damn good. I have not had the pleasure of really riding a horse :( . It was cool to see someone doing it for real.
