I've been practicing this since I watched it a few weeks ago and it's helping a lot. I really don't like to let down, so sometimes I take another breath, reset my front shoulder, re align the peep and level and hold again. I think that's more relative for hunting situations where the deer moves and you have to wait for another opportunity.
Can I ask a ?? My bow arm. My left elbow that holds the riser is starting to hurt like arthritis/tendonitis. I normally shoot 70# but it’s getting to where it really hurts. I’ve always worked out and I’m familiar with nutrition & anti-inflammatory’s, as that’s my background. It feels better taking a few ibuprofen but do I need to just rest? I’m trying to get ready for a shoot 2 months from now
Use 500+ total grain arrows and drop the poundage to 50lbs. 150+ grain, 15%-20% FOC fixed broad heads work best. Check out the Ranch Fairy for more info. Heavier arrows have more mass, hit harder, and pass through at lower poundage. There's also an ancient archery technique where you nock, anchor, and push the bow forward with your bow hand instead of pulling the string back. Virtually eliminates any shoulder strain.
It's easier for taller people to acquire their target faster. So you are saying draw, anchor, peep, acquire the target, THEN final breath, stabilize and start shot process?
No way you don't cancel the shot you stay in it and use that as an opportunity to focus extra hard and still make a good shot because a hunting situation won't allow you to let down your bow infront of a big buck.
10/4, I do this while welding, controlled breathing without changing shape of the chest cavity is key to holding steady

John thank you for the archery info.
Good stuff bro like always. Thx John.
Nice - thanks for sharing John.
Slow breathing is great while practicing, but when a deer walks by, my heart and breathing go wild lol
How do you balance staying proud and tall with letting air out? I feel like it would cause me to collapses slightly.

When you breathe, do you push your diaphragm down and stomach out or expand your chest?
Same for firearm marksmanship
Thanks dude great vid looks awkward as heck to demonstrate
