The armies of the King of England started to be composed of a great number of archers in the turning of X111?me and XIV?me century, at the time of the wars against the Scot, then against the French in the famous One hundred Year old War. At that time, the archers could form a third of the army of the King of England, and the most dreaded of them were the Welsh. The speed and the precision of their shooting caused devastations in the French knighthood in Cr?cy and Azincourt. The King of England supported so much the use of the bow in its kingdom's countries to be able to count on many and well trained archers.
