RE: One for the women
Here I represent video which shows my style of fast shooting from a bow. This style I named dagger-technique (in Russian: "kinzhalnaya technika" or "kinzhalka"). Kinzhalka it is simple and effective, as ÃÂÃÅ¡-47. Accuracy, as well as at the standard technique, depends only on the marksman. Force of bow and length of arrows too doesn't influence sense of technique.
This is there page, they seem to enjoy this sport and role play maybe.

RE: One for the women
looked like a mongolian bow to me, its all the same style minor differences.
admittedly it couldve been more accurate, but she didnt miss once all arrows within a foot or so of the metal thing, probably less, hard to gauge scale
She got 8 arrows off in 12 seconds.
Accurate to the millimeter or not, I still wouldn't like to face that much wood flying towards me in that short of time.
Take a crossbow. 15-20 seconds to reload, eyes off the target for most of that time.
Springer airgun, 6 (ish) seconds a pellet. Eyes on the target all but a couple of seconds.
Slingshot, 18 shots in a minute. Eyes on target all the time and my old steel bucket looking VERY dented some 20 yards away.
Shifts your thinking a bit doesn't it?
Power, quantity, or accuracy?

alot of these reasons and also figuring compactness into the equation are exactly why im looking more at bows and slingshots as opposed to crossbows or air rifles ...if i can get a fac/when i can, ill get a .22 rifle.
depends on circumstance i guess, i want to be able to achieve a kill shot from at least 20-30 metres, with accuracy at that range perfect, any more is a bonus, especially for hunting, and speed is very important, i'd say no less than 6 shots a minute, 1 every 10 seconds, more is alot better, less is out the question in my eyes.
it all depends on techinque and training, you can achieve that speed with almost any weapon we would consider using, depending on how much we train, same with the accuracy
Agree completely Hrusai.
The "eyes on the target the whole time" doctrine was hammered into me.
That's especially for people targets i.e. them who can hurt you back sort of thing.
Accuracy is for the planned shot.
Everything else is quantity over quality by keeping the targets heads down until you reach safety and a place where you can start sniping from.

RE: One for the women
One point that should be considered is that if you imagine ger for one second to be a prepper and part of a prepper family or group, Just imagine what it would be like if 3 or 4 in the group could volley fire that fast !!!!, with the remaining of the group taking aimed shots .
I could imagine what the French nobility were thinking when the sky above them turned black at Agincourt as the sky was filled with English and Welsh arrows?
