Hi
I've been shooting my longbow now for a couple of weeks and seem to be improving, and can stick 6/6 on a portsmouth at 20yards indoors. BUT, my lower forearm is taking one heck of a battering by the string.
I'm wearing a thick Neet arm guard but the whiplash is still getting through. I cant seem to figure out a grip that doesnt put my wrist in the line of fire and still hold the bow without looking like i have a claw hand.
Anyone have any ideas how to avoid this or should i just man up?
