Training this week

"Cupids Arrow"


Cupids Arrow
Several tournaments will be coming up, and one training focus is "being in the moment"  and switching up how you see a "target".
This week we will have some fun, and check our steady precision.(If you are attending a tournament, or wish to use a target face and practice, we will make that available for those with their own bows.)
As Valentines day is Sunday, we will have some fun both days with our training. Our targets will include hearts, and the training will focus on using the strength from back muscles, steady, long, solid arm positions, with techniques to feel those muscles better so we can “engage” them to "holding".
Where the hearts intersect, will be the high score region.
