a few good days of shooting

<< < (2/8) > >>

Ian.:
You kept that quite Jake, you should set yourself a target distance to achieve with the new bow. Who is making it?

Agincourtwarb0w:
Aye I guess I did, not in me mind though haha! It is another Poletti bow as I am quite happy with the distances my last one achieved, I figure that will be my last or second last bow that I buy, the rest I must make myself. A target distance eh?! Very good idea, I will have to think about, If i were to ask you the same question with a new 122lber, what would your reply be?

Noel i gaurantee that you can out pull me, but it's like lifting weight's, you dont start out benching 400#, you work your way up and develope good form, i dont shoot warbows but i am impressed by what you can draw, your a stout son of a gun  ;), personally i would drop down to a # that is heavy but that you can draw and keep form, shoot it every day, the #'s will go up faster than you think, Bub

fishfinder401:
thanks jake, and one thing i must say is that what has helped me with my technique the most is actually shooting with someone who has a a good technique. if anyone has any critiques of my technique that would help, please tell me  becasue without haveing someone like jake or anyone who shoots a warbow nearby, you huys are the best way for me to improve my technique, every few weeks i am going to take a new video to show my progress with this bow ( and hopefully other bows ;) ) so anything you see that needs to be changed, other than the bow ::) , let me know.
thanks
noel

Noel - how old are you? You need to be very careful with training when you are still growing - take that from someone who has been there done that! You NEED a bow that allows you to comfortably come to full draw. Correct technique is paramount - as soon as you start pushing weights and start to lose form that when the injuries happen, the last thing you want is to be carrying injuries for life.
Well done anyways and don't think i'm criticising you.
I must say that I think that the little jump when loosing (Jake)is not helping anything, also I don't understand if you are shooting for distance why you hold the bow at full draw for so long. A momentary pause is all thats necessary - not a hold.
