@ Archery Expert, Sydney, Australia
Bede Dwyer has pursued his interest in oriental archery throughout his life. As an expert in areas of historic archery, he consults on and edits historic texts (see his bibliography in his complete CV).
As well as researching the archery traditions of Asia and Africa, he has actively tested equipment and techniques. For more than a decade he has been publishing articles in the Journal of the Society of Archer-Antiquaries on archaeological remains of archery equipment ranging from ancient repeating cross bows to mediaeval closed quivers.
Over the past few years he has regularly attended the World Traditional Archery Festival in South Korea, on occasion presenting papers at seminars there. He is planning two books on archery to be published over the next few years.
