Good lord. People can talk a lot of shit about changing body standards, and how Marilyn would be overweight by today's standards and all that crap, but you know what? She's fucking timeless. She was and forever will be one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.

A lot of archery experts here for such little content in the archery community.

Wait I'm sorry what? No breast protection, no forearm protection, literally no protection whatsoever? And what does she think is gonna happen when she releases the arrow? That the string is gonna magically just loose all its momentum?

You're right. She never survived.

If Arch only boots for virgins, Monroe had to be a Slackware user.

That string is gonna slap her elbow

And hit jack shit because her arrow is super not straight in relation with her eyes ( for aiming )

... Still an awesome picture though. I just shiver to imagine they let her do it AND let her do it so badly lol

Looking along the arrow for a traditional recurve is a good way to miss, there's generally nothing to line up unless you fit a sight to the bow. It's all by feel

Euh, what. Ye, no. I do archery with a recurve, no attachments or anything. Left eye is dominant, so right hand holds the bow, arrow is on the left side of the bow and left hand pulls back. Left hand under my chin. Arrow is a straight line from left eye to bow and to the target down the range.
If you have an indentation in the grip like i do, then its straight. If you dont then yes its slightly off, but thats practice and even then its pretty straight if you hold it right...

The 50s were a wild time

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 1 points 13 hours ago

Is she pulling the bow with her hip?

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 15 points 19 hours ago

Damn, what a baddie

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 14 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Do I want to know how they attached that quiver to her bikini bottom?

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 10 points 17 hours ago

I mean, it looks like it clips right on there ...
