I'd recommend Byron Ferguson's book, "Become the Arrow." I prefer his approach to shooting over Asbell's, by far. Asbell preaches pure instinctive shooting, which is basically learned completely by trial and error. Ferguson has an aiming system - very similar to Howard Hill's method, but Ferguson does a better job of explaining it, IMO - which will get you shooting accurately much faster. Also, with practice and experience, his method will become so automatic that it practically becomes instinctive.

It's a shame about your $10 bow. An even bigger shame is there are few pro shops out there that have any practical, working knowledge about traditional bows. [&:]
