At the Canton GA range

Last weeks focus was  "sit dog!! with the hand holding the bow being relaxed, but purposeful ,so the sling can do its job as the bow seemingly “jumps” from the hand toward the target and rotates as the sling catches it.

 This week : "Drop Training"
  We will again address the hands, but focus on the draw hand and the fingers on the string. We will focus on getting them relaxed by working with a paint can- "drop training".
