The Latest Information

A better shot is inevitable…for any archer, with the right approach. It doesn’t matter age or ability. It’s a reality…and can happen very quickly!

To achieve a better aim, a archer needs to realize just how physically demanding it is on the human body. You are pull an object (bow) at up to 100 pounds pressure. This puts a tremendous amount of pressure on the joints, tendons, ligaments and muscles.

If these tissues of the body are weak, tight or brittle they will rupture and eliminate you from shooting indefinitely. If it doesn’t, your performance will pay the price. The outcome either way is not what you want…but will happen without an emphasis on strengthening these areas.

Along with strengthening comes stretching. Stretching muscles to attain a better shot is common among most archerymen. Although it is common, most archers don’t stretch. Why? Because it is viewed as ‘work’. But if it were viewed as a form of archery improvement it would be a different story.

Pull mechanics cannot be improved if your spot specific strength and flexibility are ignored. It is an impossibility, unless you compensate for this lack of capabilities in your shot. Teaching pros are now starting to realize there is a definite connection between bow & arrow mechanics and fitness.

But that’s where the BIG gap is. Between instruction and physical fitness. This is the ultimate combination for total archery performance and I have been preaching it for several years now. When your physical capabilities are improved, your bow mechanics become much easier to achieve.

The next time you visit your teaching pro, to achieve a better bullseye, you’ll be able to do what he/she wants and the desired outcome will be achieved. This outcome is inevitable when you get your body moving better. Your bow mechanics fall into place.

It will only be a matter of time when all archers will approach their archery improvement this way. It’s the only way that will warrant lasting results and ultimately a better shot.
