    although her form is pretty terrible the bow she is using is good for
    beginners. it’s the ragim matrix take down recurve

    Please tell me this is a “things to never do” video.

    Follow any of this shit and you will be the shittiest archer at the range
    forever.

    A dozen shots and the inside of her bow arm is going to look like ground
    beef. I hate it when “instructors” ignore the hyper-extending arm of either
    young children and women. Slapping an arm guard on is not solving the
    problem and encourages bad form.

    I’ve been a competitive archer for twenty years, and I can tell you with
    absolute certainty it’s a bad idea to ever change where you’re nocking the
    arrow or where your fingers are on the string. The Ragim Matrix has a sight
    mount. Better moving a sight pin than start screwing with your nock rest or
    your release. One finger over the arrow and two underneath. There’s a
    reason finger tabs have a gap in them!

    ALL THE THINGS HE DID WRONG: (may have missed a few)

    0:13 your feet should be parallel with the foot farther from the target
    more forward than the other foot
    0:36 you want your arm straight in the “resting position”
    0:56 thats if you have a back quiver, thats not how you load a bow, and the
    odd color feather needs to point out so it doesnt wack the bow and fly off
    track
    1:20 thats how you PROPERLY shoot (split fingers) althought most coachs
    teach 3 under first since new shooters tend to close the gap
    1:22 thats BS, the fingers should always be at the same place, regardless
    of distance
    1:55 you anchor by putting your thumb on your pinkie and drawing it so that
    the back of your hand is along the jawline, it should be a snug fit and
    you’ll know when your doing it right, the string should also be toughing
    your nose and lips
    2:03 more BS, that makes you rely on that method, shoot in the NORMAL
    position without a sight, its how most coaches start you out (instinctive
    shooting) and it is possible to shoot without a sight and in a normal form,
    its to get you to do the EXACT same thing over and over, its called
    CONSISTENCY
    2:24 MORE BS, also, you want to turn that shoulder back as much as possible
    to get a follow through (you release by relaxing your fingers, so logically
    your arm should wack/go back)

    take it from me, ive been shooting for (only) 1 year, but my local range
    has a couple NAA level 4 coachs and a few NAA level 3 (only level 3 and
    above are certified to work/train/teach with archers)

    my guess is that this guy isnt even level 1

    “How not to do archery” in a nutshell.

    Aiming with the arrow? what the fuck are you…. I don’t even….. I do
    hope nobody takes this seriously, you either shoot with a sight (modern
    recurve/compound bows) or shoot instinctively with a longbow/recurve bow.
    you ALWAYS grip the string the same way while you are shooting regardless
    of range.

    I’m sorry but this video is somewhat misleading. There are several *proper*
    archery forms. Each of them serves a different style of archery branch.
    But I guess this is useful as a guidline for the very beginners

    this is wrong… she is hyper-extending her arm. also with a bow and arrow,
    tip the bow to the right slightly so the arrow does not fall off the bow.

    uhh… you’re supposed to keep your elbow down. And she’s holding the bow,
    and the string wrong. Also your fingers should always stay in the same
    place no matter what distance you are at..
