oh english archer please dont apologise to me. there is defo no need for that.

i meant if the coach was top class E Archer wouldn't be 1st class

not dead yet.....cynical pete........

could there be a job for an archer as a coaching complaints officer.
run it along the lines of the child protection.
guilty untill proven innocent.

i'd take a pay cut for that job.

I wasn't at bronte then... and who says a top class coach can make a top class archer over night??

Instead of harping on about your issues with coaching... deal with them!! There are many good coaches out there and some not so good but this isn't the place to continually bash the system just because you think you can.

A bit old fashioned in his outlook on technology (internet, TV etc) but he is like a sponge when it comes to archery.

Ok.. I know I'm tired but where did Paul Adams come into this.. and who is he (apart from one of Wendy's coaches)??

why not use the time you spend whinging on here and put it towards doing some research, getting creative, speaking to the GNAS. no one's going to do it for you!!

You know the people in Wales that are running courses and expecting you do be there... if you don't like it - complain to THEM!!!!

How old are you?? Do we really need to spoon feed you??

This may be the case for some, but frankly it mostly applies to those who have spent months, or years, shooting without one. Clicker "technique" is a complete misnomer IMO. There IS no technique. You draw up, expand till it clicks, let go... how easy does it need to get?

So yes get a clicker, and get used to it. It's your friend.

OB always refers to it as a *draw check*, which I quite like. And Murray's totally correct - it IS your friend!!
