Jagt med bue og pil er anderledes end traditionel jagt. Det er sværere, fordi jægeren helst skal ind på 20 meter af det dyr, der skal nedlægges. I modsætning til riffeljagt, så er der ingen høje lyde forbundet med buejagt - og med buen skal man levere al kraften selv. Nærheden og stilheden giver en følelse af samhørighed med dyret og med den natur, man jager i. ? "At trække buen og levere et godt skud er smukt - næsten som jeg tror en balletdanser føler et vanskeligt spring, når det lykkes," forklarer forfatter Anne-Cathrine Riebnitzsky. ? Med bue og pil er Riebnitzskys egne jagtoplevelser fra hendes første ture ud med buen i 2013 til i dag. Her er både de bevægende, de spændende og de virkelig nervepirrende jagtoplevelser i den danske natur. Historier, der kan læses af jægere og af alle med interesse for natur og naturoplevelser. Anne-Cathrine Riebnitzsky er, foruden en ivrig buejæger, også prisbelønnet forfatter, tidligere soldat, faldskærmsspringer og medlem af Kvindelige Eventyreres klub. ? ?
“Følelsen er vidunderlig. Triumferende.”– Rane WillerslevEr du én gang trådt ind i jagtens univers, træder du aldrig ud igen! Den erfaring har Zenia Maltha gjort sig som jægerinde i en selvforsynende småbørnsfamilie. I Jagtberetninger – 30 jægere fortæller – med forord af Rane Willerslev– folder Zenia Maltha jagtuniverset ud med præsentationer af 30 forskellige typer jægere og beretninger fra deres jægerliv. Det er fortællinger om liv og død. Om rigtigt og forkert. Om fjordjagt i Nordjylland og bjørnejagt i Canada. Fælles for dem alle er en glødende kærlighed til alt det, som naturen og jagten kan give os. Jagtberetningerne kommer hele vejen rundt i jagtens univers. Du lister afsted i buejægerens fodspor. Du venter tålmodigt i tårnet med den nye jæger, på at bukken dukker frem af morgendisen. Og du mærker hjertet hamre, mens noget sort og ukendt stormer mod dig gennem en majsmark. Fortællingerne er for alle − både dig, der er garvet jæger og dig, der aldrig har holdt et gevær.Bogen er for dig, der vil finde tilbage til det bæredygtige liv − både for dyr og mennesker. Den er for dig, der tror på, at dyrevelfærd også er menneskers velfærd. Til sidst i bogen, efter jagtberetningerne, finder du derfor også eventyrlige vildt-opskrifter som agerhøne-risotto og vildt-tartar, der bringer dig fra jord til bord. Gennem 30 jægeres beretninger – om nederlaget, om sejren og om moralen – bliver du ét med jagtens univers. Zenia Maltha har en populær profil på Instagram, hvor små 30.000 jagtelskere følger hendes liv med jagt og natur.
The "King of Archery," "The World's Greatest Archer," "One-Shot," all names referring to Howard Hill -the champion of the longbow. No matter the title, Howard Hill was legendary, and his success led to the promotion of traditional archery and a surge of interest in the American Semi-Longbow.Howard Hill viewed the longbow as the most perfect hunting weapon. His modification of the English longbow to suit his needs, became the American Semi-Longbow. The American Semi-Longbow is synonymous with a Hill-style longbow -the bow that led him in his success.Today there are many versions of the American Semi-Longbow. In a quest to find the features that Howard Hill demanded in his own bows, a weapon that he perfected, was the impetus of this study. We can identify his standards by how his bows were built, what he insisted on in his own line of bows offered to the public, and what he taught to the bowyers employed by him. By examining Howard's original bows and following the progression of design until he perfected this weapon, we understand the qualities necessary in a Hill-style longbow. If you would like to know more about the equipment and the bow that led to his success, then you will enjoy this book.Metadata may include Howard Hill, John Schulz, Traditional Archery, Bamboo Bows, Stick Bows, Self Bows, ASL, Hill-Style Longbow, Archery Hunting, Archery History in America, Hunting with the Bow and Arrow, and Hunting the Hard Way.

Everyone who has progressed past the stage of 'just shooting' knows that moment of mental confusion when the subconscious mind somehow takes control over the conscious attempt to release the string steadily for accurate, repeatable shots, leaving a surprise poor shot and a sense of amnesia about what led up to it.Don't PANIC - it's just a reflex!The archery world has long referred to this as 'target panic'. Yet most affected archers feel no sense of panic at all: they plan the shot, feel comfortable about taking it, and are unafraid of the bow recoiling or the arrow hitting its mark. In fact, they experience no ,panic' at all.Yet most find that they experience the same outcome: an uncontrolled release, followed by that baffled feeling. As the arrow lands askew, and our memory of those critical moments goes blank, we ask ourselves "What happened there?"In this ground-breaking practical guide Jes Lysgaard applies his background in psychology and hypnotherapy to his experience as a traditional archer, to uncover what our minds are actually doing as we live this frustrating experience. Jes explains how this neural program has quietly become so deeply ingrained over the course of our hundreds of previous successful shots that, at that vital moment in our shot cycle, it knows "this is what good looks like; go now!", quite outside our conscious control.Meanwhile, the cognitive process which we have rehearsed to hold and expand for an involuntary, perfectly stable release is still obediently determined to hold the string until it releases automatically. This sudden clash between opposing neural signals - the conscious 'hold!' and the subconscious 'release now!' - gives rise to that bewildering mental flurry and yet another uncontrolled release. Not a 'panic' at all. Just the Archer's Reflex.REGAIN CONTROL - REPROGRAM YOUR BRAINIn practical steps which you can follow as you practise, Jes shows how to deprogram your own Archer's Reflex, and build in its place a new, positive, replacement neural program with which you can regain control over your shot cycle and fresh enjoyment of your shooting.REDISCOVER THE JOY OF SHOOTING
