The Way of Archery provides a detailed introduction to practicing archery in the traditional Chinese military style. It explains the basics of how to shoot using the Asian thumb ring: proper posture, training regimen, equipment, and avoiding pitfalls in shooting. The thorough translation and commentary (with original and new illustrations) provide a fresh and practical perspective on Gao Ying's 1637 archery treatise (which, itself, influenced generations of archers in East Asia). The authors themselves are active practitioners of Chinese archery, having spent an endless amount of time and effort vetting their understanding of this old manual and putting its ideas into practice. Through this process, the authors have been able to make this archery text accessible to modern readers. Not only will the reader come to understand the technical side of the Way of Archery, but will connect with the philosophy and spirit of the ancient Chinese warriors.

Made a great pillow better.
Had an awesome pillow but if I didn't fluff it before going to sleep my neck would hurt the next morning. Ordered this and put about 70% into a cardboard box to expand then shoved it into my pillow. Its been great 👍 put the rest in another pillow. Had no scent. My pillows are king sized.

Great for refreshing old memory foam pillows
Our memory foam pillows are 2 years old and need a little refreshing. We purchased this and was able to refresh both pillows to firmer than new condition.

Easy to use
I recently got one of those large body pillows that people usually use for pregnancy. Unfortunately, it was a little understuffed for my liking, and it isn't stuffed/stitched in a way that keeps the filling from moving around. The filling was bunching in places and sparse in others, causing it to be uneven. Fortunately, the pillow had a cover, and the core had a zipper where I could easily access the stuffing. I decided to try this filling to make up for the gaps. It worked great. I grabbed the stuffing and put it directly into the pillow. I did not allow it to expand fully before stuffing. I probably should have. But this was super easy to use and absolutely solved my problem. It doesn't smell great. There is definitely some smell that could probably be cleared by leaving it to air out for a while. I stuffed it right into the pillow and didn't use it until later that night. It wasn't so strong that it could be smelled through the pillow covering and the pillowcase.
