Very good for beginners, easy to follow.November 25, 2001 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
This was the first book I bought on archery. I was not disappointed. It gave very clear and simple steps. As a beginner the most important stages were on good form and how to acheive it. It basically opend up the world of archery to me and helped me to enjoy and improve my archery. A very good buy, you will read this many times.
Only one? Then make it this one!October 15, 2001 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
If you're starting out or maybe just seeking to improve and you want or can afford just a single book, then this is it. Look no further, simple down-to-earth, first class information, well presented. Buy it!
Excellent description of shooting technique and problems.March 29, 2000 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
This is a very clearly presented factual book that is particularly good in describing the technique of shooting arrows. It describes each step throughout a shot, from taking ones stance, holding and raising the bow, drawing, anchoring, aiming and releasing the arrow. It is particularly good and unusual in that it recognises common shooting faults and gives a list of probable causes for each. This is very useful for both beginners and intermediates who, without a coach in regular attendance, may need to diagnose and correct their own shooting faults. I have a copy of this book myself and thoroughly recommend it both for a one-off read and as a regularly consulted reference.
Not a book for anyone interested in Traditional ArcheryJune 10, 1999 3 out of 20 found this review helpful
I was very disapointed in this book. If you are interested in Traditional Archery (Longbows & Recurves with real wood arrows) stay away from this book. It is very dirogitory to the Native American and Primative sytles of archery. I give it 1 star only because the scale won't go lower!!
