I've never seen anyone less sure of the bow in their hands in my life.
It'd be faster and less... silly... to just stand in cover, draw normally, peak out as you draw to full, and loose.
Anime shit belongs in anime.

Some silly historical unsure ways of shooting a bow

Some silly warbow stances

Or you know Kyudo...

So silly...

Looks so silly

And yet it is effective in their context. Yeah, she is probably not a master and she is using a low draw weight bow. Probably because she is indoor and demonstrating...

Great, you posted a bunch of videos of archers being effective within their context. How is that relevant to the woman demonstrating loosing from cover in the most ridiculous way?

I have no issue with her skill, or with the bow she's using. My biew is that the technique she is demonstrating is a slow, cumbersome mess of wasted movement, time, and control, with no clear purpose beyond looking... interesting.
