I'm not sure what ' being overbowed' is, so I couldn't say whether I feel I am or not.
I would happily fork out for some decent coaching if I knew where to get some.
Thanks for the help guys....I may well be raising my front shoulder as I'm getting tired, to be honest, its hard for me to tell. I don't like to ask for help at my club simply becuase I don't like to take others away from their shooting, plus I don't really know who to ask. My other half helps as much as he is able of course...but what I would really like is some quality one to one time....but as has been said elsewhere here....its hard to come by! |
It's not a substitute for a coach, but you might try and get your other half to video a few ends of shooting. Sometimes it is very instructive to watch and see just what is going on. Even without much experience you will be able to see whether your bow shoulder lifts during the shot, whether you hunch your head forward to meet the string rather than drawning back to your face etc, etc. Get sequences from a few angles.
First time I tried it I was amazed at how many things I did, and odd movements had crept in to my shot sequence. I was particularly guilty of bring my head forward to meet the string, leading to inconsistent draw length, etc. I then proceeded to simplify my shot sequence so that I had a better chance to reproducing it.
