Default RE: Becoming The Arrow

I loaned my (signed) copy out a few years ago, never got it back and can't remember who I loaned it to, so it's been a while since I've read it. I don't remember much on the specifics, but I do remember it was clear, easy to read and understand, and helped me quite a bit. Steady bow arm, release, follow through, picking a spot, etc., all written in a way that most anyone can understand.

Guss, don't become too dependant on that tiny spot on your target--practice picking out a spot and focusing on it, even when there doesn't seem to be much of anything to focus on. Targets at a tournament or animal in the woods won't have a little red dot over the kill, so you have to be able to pick a spot without it. Practicing this really does help--I draw my "air bow" on cattle, birds, dogs, etc., mainly to practice picking a spot. You will get some funny looks if you do this at a zoo (don't ask).
