Saturday & Sunday March 22 & 23, 2014 Canton GA range
Archery Class Training: "Write it down + quadrant training"
Last week we scored, and this weekend students will receive their pins/lanyards earned (must be full JOAD member to earn rank)
At the Canton range
Quadrant training:
I will provide quadrant training sheets this session which allow students to see very clearly the patterns of the arrows on the targets by tracking them on these sheets
Write it Down
Training in archery focuses on form. Each step in your routine should take the same amount of time, each and every time, to get the best accuracy. Consistency is about repeatability. The entire shooting process should take about 10 seconds, with about 3 seconds to aim. Variations on that, results in variations at the target.
The best way to settle into a routine is to write it down, and note your specific variations for your routine. (example: I must always close my left eye, and turn my draw arm elbow out, and I put those elements into an auto-pilot sequence). As you add in new skills, old ones become sub-conscious elements. It is crucial that you add-in a specific element, work on mastering it, then add another. If you build on top of elements that don’t support your goals, you will be building sub-conscious elements that will be difficult to unlearn.
Be willing to expand and add new techniques. Poor form shows up as we move to longer distances, and really shows up during a long set of shooting. Yes, we all step up, shoot, and repeat, but have something specific to work on.
Typical steps useful as an outline in various styles- compound, recurve, barebow. (note: aim is far down the list!) Add your personal variations!
