      Glad to be here and glad to be involved. I discovered this forum recently and decided to join after seeing how much helpful information is already shared. It’s nice to see a place where people are willing about sharing their experiences and offering practical advice. I’m still new, but I’m liking browsing everything so far. I have recently been reading about this lately. https://southwestspro.livejournal.com/780.html Glad to find a community like this. It’s good to see a place where people actually try to share their experiences. b2560ba

      Surely his quiver has internal subdivisions (at least three) allowing him to subgroup arrows. Then, at 1:25 you can see that his arrows have two-feather fletching, which determines the orientation of the nock, since the feathers must sit horizontally when the arrows are nocked. When grabbing multiple arrows in one hand, the feathers just sit in parallel layers on top of each other, correctly orienting their nocks. That’s why he can nock four at the same time so fast a few seconds earlier. He has a bit of a harder time with five, but I think it could be achieved with practice, and maybe a few extra adjustments in equipment. In addition to all that I mentioned before, the lethality of an arrow “has very little to do with the KE it possesses“, but that it “comes from broadhead design and durability, arrow design and durability, and the penetrating power (momentum) it carries” (https://cervicide.com/arrow-speed-vs-weight-which-matters). And of course, composite warbows would shoot arrows much harder than on these videos. Still, I’m not convinced that this was indeed what the Sasanians were doing, instead of just holding five arrows to shoot them in fast sequence, but at least it would seem more plausible than one initially would think. Certainly “physically possible”, hard to say if "physically makes sense".

      How does he manage to pull three arrows from his quiver in a single motion, and how does he manage to nock three arrows onto the string at once in a single motion? I'm genuinely curious because it seems to me that it's not that easy for other archers:
