I have a 15yo girl student who I coached from day one (recurve). She spent the first 4 weeks on a theraband learning structure, then the next 4 weeks on blank target. etc etc.
6 months later she shot in and won the state indoor titles, would have finished 4th in open womens.
She's not shooting mid-260 Vegas rounds (530 FITA). Not bad considering she only shoots a few times a week at best.
We got it right from the start and have been able to cut back her development time greatly. She doesn't have plans to go to the olympics, just enjoys shooting with her friends at the club and competitions, but is really enjoying how well she is shooting.
