Focus on Breathing, Timing

Breathing should be as consistent as the other elements of your "process". Timing is a big part of the steps you are going through. If you take a deep breath and hold it, then pull back the bow string, you will find that you are "up in your chest" and loose the flat back and center core stability. The sight will jump and beat with your heart, making aiming challenging, and you may release the string prematurely because you simply can't hold your breath anymore. Breathing should be timed to bring air in as you open the bow, and slowly let about half of it out as you come to rest at full draw anchor. Practice this at home with a string or stretch band, and whenever possible, practice in front of a mirror so you can see the results of the changes you make in your body position.

If outside: Distance Shooting

 State JOAD Championship will be on June 15th in Conyers.
