Focus on the Process
Training in archery focuses on form, and the "process". We always say "focus on the process".
The best way to focus on the process and create 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. Consistency is about repeatability.
Each step in your routine should take the same amount of time, each and every time, to get the best accuracy. The entire shooting process should take about 10 seconds, with about 3 seconds to aim. Variations on that, results in variations at the target.
Be willing to expand and add new techniques. Yes, we all step up, shoot, and repeat, but have something specific to work on. We discussed this at our last training.
Typical steps useful as an outline in various styles- compound, recurve, bare-bow. (note: aim is far down the list!) Add your personal variations!
1.Stance & posture

7. Load & transfer then hold
8.Aim & expand
