The moment you release an arrow, your brain has a choice to make… and that choice can either make you a better archer or slow your progress.
One of the most common mistakes I see is archers immediately looking at where their arrow landed before analyzing how the shot actually felt.
In this video, I’ll show you why that’s a problem, how elite archers evaluate their shots, and how changing this one habit can dramatically improve your self-coaching, shot execution, and consistency.
If you’re serious about improving your shooting, this is one habit that can completely change how you practice.
