January 6, 2013

Training: New strategies for the year.
"A goal without a plan is just a wish"
Antoine de Saint-Exupery (1900 - 1944)


As it is a new year it’s a great time to be thinking about what you want to accomplish as an archer. Some students are new and just know they want to shoot and find out about archery, the basics and variables in equipment, and have just begun to get a feel for the programs basic equipment.
More seasoned archers may have new equipment after the holidays, or have been shooting for a while with their own equipment or program equipment, and want to learn to “tune” their equipment.

In either setting, or any endeavor for that matter, if you can step into the future and look back at where you are today, you can set up a guide to get to that “future self”.

What do you see for yourself as an archer? Does a competition interest you? How does that look? What will it take to get there? Do you want to be able to shoot longer distances, or perhaps beat a score you earned previously. Maybe have better endurance while shooting, or understand your equipment better, and find ways to make it perform to its optimum ability. Perhaps find ways to draw out your own optimum ability as well. What kind of training and practice time are you able to invest in your “future self”?

We will talk about goal setting strategies at our next session, and work on foot/hip position and shoulder position-the basics of “stance”.



To participate this Sunday,
