I'm not sure why this even popped in to my mind lol. At any rate, I was just sitting here thinking and I remembered a comment in a thread a WHILE back from a member on here who's name I'll leave out.

At any rate, this person claimed he practiced in all the positions that he might find himself in during a hunting situation, BUT...... he went on to say he was PROFICIENT at shooting a bow while laying on his belly lol.


Now, I have imagined every possible angle of the body and bow, but i can't see this being anything other than some special effect in a Hollywood movie lol.

Anyone else here ever even attempt anything this bizarre?

Laying on your belly? How would you even anchor? I guess with a recurve or longbow one could do it...but a compound?
I will say I probably couldn't hit a 10 yard target on my belly, but people never cease to amaze me...especially those older fellas that shoot traditional.

I watched 3 people just today shooting from there belly's. their sights are sideway's. good groups at 100 yards.

Dah right!?!?!?

Shoot a rifle, shoot a muzzleloader yes, bow ???? Id really like to see that, espically where the arrow would land!!!!

 

[njshadowwalker]

Stickbow yes....VERY POSISBLE provided your not overbowed. Cant see a compound doping it thought.

 

[Ausie]

thats a big gut

wtih traditional equipment it can be done. article in last years primative archer covered the topic.

Anything is possible, although not everything is probable.

I just may have to put that in my signature line:wink:

 

[JAVI]

It certainly wouldn't be my first choice of positions but definitely possible with the right equipment (even a compound), you guys that have never shot off the shelf or from your knuckle without sights clearly underestimate what can be done.

I thought thats why they made the whisker buiscuit:tongue:
Considering how many here shoot 1/2" groups at 40yrds and 3" groups at 85yrds Im SURE its happening, though the groups are probably a tiny bit bigger.
