I learned when bare bow was still common, only the high end gear and actual bow hunters. I don't remember seeing any more complicated than the simple arm-and-stick style, except on hunting bows. Stabilisers weren't until later, except a very few pros were messing about with them. It was still fun without the fancy stuff, although it can be helpful for competition or actual hunting.
Was the sky hazy that day? Even a light overcast will give a lot of scattered UV, making shade a place where it's cooler but still able to burn you.
