In less than 3 short years he managed to harvest his first buck with a bow, get heavily involved in shooting leagues, and even compete at the Lancaster Classic. Its an inspiring story of the incredible determination, ingenuity that one man committed himself to so that he could enjoy the sport we all love

Episode 48 focuses on just simple tuning basics. We've done episodes on tuning in the past. But in this episode we try to break it down into simple logic. From how to set the exact center shot (no 13/16 is not the automatic go to all the time) to nock height and preventing arrow pinch and paper tuning at the PROPER distance. We go over the basic supplies you should have to get the job done, and most of them you already own!

Episode 47 focuses on what we call the total release solution. In this episode we cover how to make your release an extension of your body. What to look for and how to set it all in motion for a controlled shot. And while most would think this only applies to compound shooters and mechanical releases, it all applies to traditional and recurve shooters as well. We will delve into how they also need to have a total release solution and how to achieve it.

Episode 46 focuses on bow sights and peeps. We have discussed this before but we will get into what kind of sight is right for you and why. And how the peep sight (there are many variations) fits into all of this. We will also cover how something as simple as how the peep sight is set up can drastically affect how far you can shoot with your sight (regardless of your ability).

Episode 45 is all about effective range. its a topic we've discussed in the past, and normally it is usually directed towards bowhunters only. But as you will find out, it also has a lot to do with target shooters. We'll get into what its all about, factors that affect your effective range, and most importantly, how to extend it.
And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy. Not a crazy one, but I do try to get a point across with this one!

Episode 43 is about strength vs technique. You can be as strong as an ox, but without proper technique, pulling back a 40 or 50lb bow could be really difficult. It all boils down to technique. We will go over my method when it comes to drawing properly, what it really comes down to, and how its easier to escalate your draw weight than you would think. We'll cover how i get my students shooting practically any draw weight they desire as long as they follow this simple method.
And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy. Have to apologize in advance, this one got really heated. But its one of those subjects that tends to set me off!

Episode 42 features our special guest Richard Clarke, host of the Archery Geek Outdoors Podcast. Richard is based in the UK and we got together on this one to discuss various topics including what makes a good coach, hunting, archery shops, and a host of other subjects. It was a great chat that I've been looking forward to for a while. Getting the perspective of someone from outside the US is always eye opening for sure. This was the first of a series of podcasts we will do with Archery Geek Outdoors so stay tuned for more.
And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy. This one wasn't exactly planned, but Richard brought up a subject that lets just say required some heat to be brought down upon some folks. It won't disappoint!
