If only I could apply some of the wisdom contained therein! Another good read is Rick McKinney's The Simple Art of Winning. Bit dated in comparison to Total Archery, but, needless to say, most it still applies to post-'80s/'90s archery! One I'm looking forward to is the english version of The Heretic Archer by Italian archery 'powerhouses' Michele & Vittorio Frangilli - which, I'm reliably informed, is out at the end of January. Michele needs no introduction as one of the finest archers on the scene, and his father, Vittorio, is a world-class coach (as well as an approachable 'fount of all archery knowledge' on the Saggitarius Black Board). If Vittorio's clear and in-depth explanations on the Saggi BB are anything to go by, it's going to be a must-have book for any archery library!
