Used a 40 pound longbow that I made from scratch. Everyone else there was confused as to how I aimed

Instinct shooting is a real thing, I’ve known a couple people that shot bow that way

Mora is alright. Good yet cheap carbon steel, the blade is thicker than I like and it doesn't have a full tang so it's not as durable as better knives out there

More learned shooting. You figure out how to aim a bow with no sights or arrow shelf with enough practice

Yeah, I don’t own any moras, they’re not my cup of tea, the design just never appealed to me. I like Buck’s offerings in that price range.
