Welcome to the third video of our series on spear and shield in historical european martial arts (HEMA). Last time we discussed applying the techniques of our first video, but there was one very important thing missing: The Spear Throw. So for this video we switched the location to not destroy anything and gave it a shot, wielding two spears and no swords since that was not allowed due to covid at that point. And this alone changes the game so much that it makes the overhand grip superior in spear and shield fighting. (as in overhand vs. underhand grip)
