Any reason why its not HD? Video maxes out at 480p for me

Holy cow! @7:04 that's not just flexing, it is rotating as well, so it is spiraling! He must also be counting off paces to the target.

awesome video as always :D

That is incredible. Gives me so much more respect for archers.

This is MOSTLY correct. The failure to consider the lateral sliding of the bowstring OFF OF THE FINGERS, which determines which way the arrow is going to flex, and which way the back end of the arrow is going to MOVE, actually altering the initial trajectory (direction of travel) of the point of the arrow, is EVERYTHING about determining whether archer's paradox exists or not. With the compound bow demonstrated, the archer uses a mechanical release that completely ELIMINATES the lateral slide, thus at no point in the arrow release is the arrow aimed OFF of the target as it is when an archer is holding the string with fingers. The paradox is not that the arrow does not "hit" the riser, the paradox is that the arrow IS NEVER POINTED AT THE TARGET BY THE ARCHER WHEN AIMING through a sight. As far as "being smart enough to know which way the nodes are flexing so you can hit the aspirin, just move the archer back 4 feet, changing the distance so he (one of the world's most distinguished and excellent demonstration archers) has to completely readjust his aim. He can do it but it will take him some shots to home back in. THAT IS THE PARADOX: NOT THAT THE ARROW DOESN'T HIT THE RISER/BOW, BUT THAT THE ARROW SHOT IS STARTED OUT AIMED COMPLETELY TO THE SIDE OF THE TARGET, YET STRING SIDESLIP (from the fingertips) CAUSES IT TO BE POINTED DURING A FEW MILLISECONDS DIRECTLY AT THE TARGET. THAT is the paradox. That the shaft flexes in nodal behavior so that the nock and vanes avoid hitting the bow (which his large feathers do NOT do) is a function of TUNING, selecting the right spine as it relates to the archer's release technique, the weight of the bow, the point weight, even the nature of the limbs of the bow and the surface of the archer's finger tab.

oops, sorry - I just noticed, I am citation (9) in the wiki references he posted, which refers to something I first posted on a website I maintain, in 2001. <a href="http://www.texasarchery.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.texasarchery.org</a> for more info (and hundreds of photo examples of archers' releases). Highspeed video examples on the TSAA facebook page as well, I think... 600fps and 1200fps examples. Ron

At 2:45 Byron says "The first thing that happens is the arrow bends from the pressure of the string". He shows a lateral motion while explaining this.
