Archery is simple, but not easy. It rewards stillness, repetition, and humility. If you stick with it — and stay connected to this tribe — it will sharpen more than your aim. Welcome to The Way of the Bow. Let’s get to work. — Ryan Brown Army Veteran | Eagle Scout | Traditional Archer

Hey everyone — I’m Ryan Brown, your host here at The Way of the Bow. I’m an Army veteran, Eagle Scout, and lifelong outdoorsman who’s been obsessed with traditional archery and self-reliance since I was a kid growing up on a farm. After years in the military and time spent deep in the woods, I realized that archery — especially the traditional, instinctive kind — teaches far more than how to hit a target. It teaches patience, focus, and calm under pressure. It connects you to something older, steadier, and real. That’s what this community is about. We’re here to bring back the old ways — to learn, share, and sharpen not just our aim, but our mindset. As you join please introduce yourself. Come sit by my virtual campfire and let us know what brings you here.
