"#3 : At Set-Align Feet and Bow, Quiver never moves"
We are seeing great improvements in our archers with the focus on this training.
We will again work on getting the initial alignments in place this week, continuing with "coiling" to Holding, and will have a "visual aid" to help the focus on keeping archers hips steady, and therefor the quiver never moves.
Trying to get the back into the right position to do all the heavy work starts with alignment at "set". Then the move to "set-up" draw/ load, follows smoothly, hips stay still, we "crack open the bow", and "coil" from belly button up, and finally reach HOLD.
