    If you can't respect his knowledge, if you can't respect his desire to teach, his desire to share, if you can't respect his success, if you can't learn to be a better archer from the JD you are just "freakin'" jealous. The man is just a plethora of archery knowledge that he chooses to continually give us. Thank you John for caring so much about the entire industry as a whole. You rock! 🤘🏻

I've shot bows since I was 9 years old (57 yrs old now), and I've seen great archers and seen those who could shoot, but into themselves way too much. You are among the greats, sir. Not just because you're great with a bow, but because you share your knowledge and passion with everyone around you, and you really take time with people. You yruly, truly care, and hat's what legends are made of. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, for being in our sport and lifestyle.

    John 💪🏼 All I can say is that John is 1000% correct. I started shooting again after 20 years and I was struggling. I then started watching all of John’s videos and instructions from the very beginner set up and it drastically changed everything for me in a short period of time. I learned more after season 1 of School of Nock than I ever knew before I stopped shooting and since starting again. I decided to forget everything g I thought I knew and start completely over. I bought a Silver Back release, started with the nock on release and drilled for 2 weeks before I picked my bow back up. When I did, I drilled the same mechanics from 7 yards in my basement with a black block no target for another 2 weeks. No less than 100 reps per day in that month and upwards of 300 per day on the weekend. In a months time I was better and more consistent than I ever was. I still do all the same drills on rest days and focus on my mechanics and shot process diligently every shot. I appreciate all your guidance John, that’s why I spend all my my money in your shop 😂

    I have been on my archery journey for about 6 years now. When I enjoy something I go all in. I try to learn everything about it. I have bought the equipment to do all my own work. In this journey I have listened to endless podcast and watched countless RUclips videos from different people. One thing I notice is everyone wants to grow archery, but in there next breath starts bashing other archers or other methods. The one thing that keeps bringing me back to John, is his love for growing the sport, willingness to help, and doesn’t bash other products and methods. Thank you John for all the time you have given and countless hours sacrificed, helping people learn how to be better.

  • @rbh014
    @rbh014 Год назад +4

    I agree. I also agree that there are too many people hunting that don’t make damn sure that their broadheads fly straight. Technique first, and do reps. And then don’t go into the woods until you’ve done the tuning necessary to not wound animals. There are people out there that want to ban bowhunting because of the wound rate and we don’t do ourselves any favors. Time to fix that.

    @preacherpilot Год назад +3

    Thanks Dud. Saw you at TAC PA and this is what I needed to hear. I've been shooting a bow for about 20 years, but only got serious about it this past winter. I've fallen into the trap of chasing all these new things I'm encountering (releases, fletching, helical, etc) and it's been a bit overwhelming. My commitment from now until the end of this deer season is to not change anything and JUST work on my form.

  • @lspostma
    @lspostma Год назад +1

    John, I stood there Saturday when you took a minute to talk about practicing instead of going into rabbit holes of arrow building and such... I have spent the past 20 years running an archery shop in N. Utah and a decade as a USA Archery L2/3 certified coach. I am EXTREMELY grateful for this video. I cannot tell you how many times EVERY DAY that I have to ask people to take a step back from their minutia of bare shaft paper and distance shooting, nock tuning, spinning arrows, degrees of fletching, etc, etc... and consider for 2 minutes getting some coaching on form and spending that time shooting and practicing GOOD TECHNIQUES.
    Thank you. It was good to see you. If you don't remember who I am, I "smoked" your sticker at the top of the lift 4 seasons ago, I rode the tram down with you two years ago, and I am the one who moved all your coolers and was crawling around in the dirt looking for the pendant Isaac had thought he lost.

  • @chrisbailey6691
    @chrisbailey6691 Год назад +1

    I'm so glad to hear you say this. I am about 5 years into a bowhunting journey. I'm 44. I love this style of hunting. I am still shooting a cheap beginner bow and basic arrows. I'm looking to move into a bow that shoots a little more consistently and is much quieter than mine. I get so caught up in research on arrows, vanes, releases, strings, etc. What I'd like to do is buy a good bow, and get a good basic setup to finish my own arrows so I can just keep going and focus on practice. Trying to perfect my system and release. I'm extending my home range. I shoot a 5 pin right now. I'd like an adjustable sight, but I hunt tight eastern woods from a saddle. I feel like my old trusty 5 pin is a little more durable and reliable. Thank you for this advice.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m fairly new to a more serious level of archery and since joining all these groups on social media I have been peaking down this rabbit hole of extreme tuning. This has me feeling like this is what I need to do to be a good archer and I’ve been worrying how I’m going to do all this stuff and or will my bow shop go that extreme. Now I can relax and just practice. Obviously I’m going to get my bow tuned but not to the extreme I thought I’d have to. Appreciate you!

    Most important video i've watched this year.
    My bow is in my bow vice since last year and i've been trying to tune it way more than shooting it.
    I will admit that I tend to chase material perfection before having the skills to make use of it. I'm going to switch that asap.
    Thanks for opening my eyes!

    Dud, I’ve been with you since you were in the dungeon on the podcast with shades , and a cup of brcc brew. And your jug of water with your preferred supplements from onnit. I’ve learned every single little thing I know about this sport and life style because of you . I feel for you when you have to sit back and watch all of these people make a fortune promoting products for the sake of just that and making a dime . You did it , have done it , and are still doing it for the sake of ARCHERY ! I have so much respect for you and what you do for the veterans , the newbies , and even the people who question the material and content you give out and you have gave out for FREE ! The products you have endorsed for many many many years are still of the very best and you never leave where you came from . I respect the hell out of you as a person , hunter , and an overall bad ass archer ! I’m a fan boy to say the least , but you have brought me and my whole family into this addiction known as archery lol whether it be killing foam or food ! It’s the best addiction in my opinion, one can have . I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing me and my friends and family whom love this thing called archery with sooooo much knowledge and life experience! You have truly changed the game in terms of what it means to be an archer and not just a hunter . I can’t watch any of these other you tubers describe how to do a single thing without first referring to your videos and articles. I actually criticize other content makers based off of content that you have willingly shared and gave to all of us because you are simply a god in the archery world . I now think of myself as a well educated archer because of you and all of your stories and life experiences that you have shared with so many people ! I am honestly a nock on nation member for life . I thank you from the bottom of my heart for getting me into archery and all the joy that it brings me , my friends , and family ! You’re a great person above everything ! Thanks man ! Maybe one day you can sign a nock on ball cap for my son or something . Make both of us the happiest archers alive lol

    Great video dud! In my opinion the 3 main factors that helped me shoot tighter groups were #1: proper bow fit #2 learning how to properly execute a controlled shot and #3 hand loading arrows. The top 3 things that helped me increase my accuracy was #1 proper form #2 learning how to read a shot #3 reps reps reps. Now this is assuming the bow is tuned and the arrow is flying perfectly.

    Best video I have seen in awhile, I am your same age started at a really young age. Really learned by making all the mistakes by 21 or so. I've killed with almost every brand on the market browning to xpedition. 300 grains to 600+ grains. None of the details matter if you don't have good form, solid anchor, and beat target panic. All of this is corrected with deliberate practice.

    Thank you for the video. Just picked up a bow this year, after talking a few years off. I was following all the internet tough guys down the rabbit holes of nuanced details when I couldn't even group. I had severe target panic and it wasn't fun. Found you and Chris Bees videos this past spring and it gave me the motivation to get back into it.
    Loving it so far, made it to Utah TAC and had a blast. Taking shots at distances that 5 years ago were impossible. Hoping to make 2 TAC for 2024 and just keep shooting until then.

    Thanks for the no bs talk. I bought my fist bow 3 months ago Pse unite and arrows prefleched from you and all other things from your website. That way as I started this journey I could just avoid going down all those rabbit holes. I knew it would make my brain confident that it was me and not my equipment. That good reps and execution would deliver groups not changing my gear. With this mindset I’m now 3 months in able to softball group at 60 and able to basketball group at 100. I’m elated to say the least. I can’t wait to go down all the rabbit holes for fun. But I agree if you can’t group with todays great equipment you’re wasting time chasing your tail.

    This was probably the most honest video you’ll see from anybody across any industry or sport. There’s a ton of top tier compound bows out there and they all have similar tech and are always advancing and competing to win customers over. It comes down to personal preference. At the end of the day your goal is to harvest game and they all do that with the same capabilities, just comes down to which product you prefer and are most comfortable with, they all do the same thing.

  • @FrankEgyed
    @FrankEgyed Год назад

    Thanks for a great video reminding us mastery can only come from practice practice practice... I smiled at the very casual mention of "having a bow that can shoot a bullet-hole". Having the bow properly set up, and even more importantly having the arrows weigh and flex the same is the starting point - and right there is the entrance to the rabbit hole :) However, as a multiple Australian Junior Champion who now owns an archery shop said "Even a cheap bow will group well all day provided the arrows are matched". So once the equipment is matched, it's ALL about a repeatable, good technique shot sequence which only comes from practice practice practice... (and a 70lb draw with perfect arrows doesn't hurt ;))

    100%. Right. Putting in the time and work just shooting is the most forgotten part. Even me I want to shoot bullseye and for get that 5 in group is still a great group and dead deer. Keep it up and keep making videos

    Very well put John. I remember Terry Ragsdale when in Vegas his cams were rubbing on the side of the limbs and he was still grouping to win Vegas so there is a lot to say about form technique and repetition. Thank you.

    Great points: honestly you are the first person to come out and debunk the left or right helical theories. I have used and stuck with a left helical since I first learned what that was about. The most important thing that I have learned is to keep my bows tuned and practice anyhow anyway. I must say that for the most part I am very satisfied with my performance, maybe not allows but for the most part yes. I enjoy putting good shots down range and just enjoy being outdoors with my friends.

    Your videos help me a ton. I live in Missouri and work all over Iowa. I don’t like to leave my bow in some of the motels and it’s to hot to leave in the truck. Is there any tips you could pass along for guys like me that only get a little bit of time to shoot on the weekends? Every thing you do for us is awesome 👍

    One of the best videos you’ve ever done. I’ve wasted a lot of time myself testing all this crap and it’s more about form and shot execution than anything else

    That was the best, indiscriminating, just facts video I’ve seen in a long time. I’ve been hunting for 20 years and last year I went down the rabbit hole. Took me from May till September to get my bow shooting a 600gn 17% FOC arrow correctly. Don’t get me wrong, it was a clean pass through on every animal I shot but the time and effort of changing every little thing on my bow. Exhausting and frustrating.

    Best to do it. Thank you John for the never ending phenomenal advice. I swear more and more people just enjoy complaining so they out themselves in a situation to find more to complain about instead of just enjoying the hobby/sport we all love.

    Took the words out my mouth. There is such a market for splitting hairs that don't matter more than form, technique, repeating what works.

    This is absolutely 100% truth. I've shot since 1995. I started shooting competitions in 1996 and went to the MBO class in 1998. I was lucky enough to hang out with Darla Owens in 2002 at the 3rd leg IBO in Nelsonville. She told me exactly what you're saying, and I've done it ever since. I miss competitions, but the kiddos come 1st now. Keep up the good work John.

    Finally an honest video about archery. Some of the videos coming out have archers that can't even hit a tree from 20 yards but they are giving other people advice. The realest thing you said was that you could hit that grouping with prettty much any bow, string or arrow styling. To me that's honest cause once using a bow becomes a reflex of your body, you can shoot anything. I'll switch from a compound bow to a recurve in the middle of a set and still hit the same grouping.
