Things that surprise me about the school archery program

By

I joined the high school archery nasp program and these are things I’ve been surprised about.

1: they never state of practice if practice is mandatory that night or not: They sent a text this morning saying parent meeting tonight at practice but they didn’t say we had to come. And I’m not coming bc of stomach ache. But I don’t know wether to come stick it out or not bc they didn’t say you hv to.

2: they let you leave early and practice isn’t mandatory unlike other sports: I’m surprised they don’t kick me out bc I leave an hour early in the 2 hour session and I only come 1 day a week out of the 2 days. Or sometimes I don’t come at all depending on how busy I get with life outside school. 78% the reason I’m doing archery is because of this. I quit martial arts bc they required 2 days a week 1 hr session each.

4: no borrowing equipment like genesis bow: They said I can’t bc they need an adequate supply of right hand, left hand bows and they can’t guarantee it would ever come back. IMO they should put a gps tracker on it bc some kids can’t go out and buy one. And how are they going to be able to practice in free time. But then that cost more to buy trackers. After asking me and my dad just decided to go to the store the coach recommended and bought one. But I feel like it wouldn’t be that big of a deal to rent them out to students. It’s like the library rules if it’s destroyed you pay for it’s repair. But I can’t complain bc that’s how other sports are I don’t think the tennis coach would let you take home a racket.

I would take a takedown recurve bow as my primary SHTF/bugout weapon

This is the type of opinion that is subject to change. In the near future, deteriorating political, economic, and social circumstances may result in many people having to rely on weapons to obtain food and defend themselves on a regular basis. Alternately, some people desire to leave civilization for a life of self-sufficiency in the wilderness, perhaps temporarily, and will encounter the same challenges. Generally, firearms are the preferred weapons among people who seek to prepare themselves for these events. I have owned and used a wide variety of firearms over many years and own several right now. If I had to pick one weapon to serve as a primary weapon (a full-size weapon intended to be used offensively, such as for hunting, and carried in the hand or by sling as opposed to a secondary weapon, which is complimentary, used defensively and carried on-person and possibly concealed, such as a handgun) I just might prefer my ILF recurve over any kind of rifle or shotgun.

A guide to dealing with target panic

By
I wanted to make a contribution to the useful copy pastas/reference guides, so here's an unofficial guide to target panic. It used to be that target panic was the affliction that must not be named. It was seen as something unescapable, something that could very well end an archer's career. Fortunately, we now have a much better understanding of what target panic is and how we can treat it. This has made it much easier to discuss it. Which is a very good thing, because target panic is common. If you're reading this, you probably have (had) it yourself or know someone who has it. What is target panic? Target panic is basically your brain going on auto-pilot. A very dumb auto-pilot. There are two basic flavours: The premature release type. You go through your shot process as usually, but before you reach anchor your body is like RELEASE! LOOSE! LET THAT ARROW FLY! And whoosh goes your arrow, towards a spot it wasn't supposed to go. The can't release type. You&#
