Absolutely agree, and a great idea on the Workmate (I'd never have thought of that...)
Bear in mind that if you're shooting at a short distance at home, you are looking for quality over quantity. Anyone can stand and chuck arrows into a target all day, but if you shoot for a little bit and they're all great shots the good bits of your form will reinforce and you'll come away from it stronger.
JMHO, etc.
