If you don't want to break your phone with this drill, just hold your finger tab, squeeze the spacer as normal, but take off the strap.

Been practising this with the rubber band. Went to the range today, and really felt the difference. One of the experienced chaps even noticed my release was improving. So thanks, NUSensei. I’ll keep working on it.

Really helpful video, thanks. Thinking too much is my problem with the release. Letting things happen instead of overthinking is more difficult than it seems and thats also a good life lesson. :)

Being mindful of ones expansion is the best tip from this video.

I really enjoy your videos. It's watching you that got me involved in archery, and using target recurve bows. I find it relaxing, and though I have much to learn, I enjoy what I'm doing. Thanks for that!

Great video man newer to trad archery been shooting a compound for a long time have found many of your videos helpful for me on both the compound and recurve side this form of release is a gamechanger for me thank you

Super helpful. Most complete instruction I have heard or read. Thank you.

Nailed it beautifully Nu. Much appreciated.

Hi Nu, I wanted to thank you for your really helpful videos. You brought me into archery this year and you helped me a lot with your explinations!! I'm really enjoing your videos. Thank you and keep up the excellent work! I wish you all a happy 2020!

Thank you NUSensei! I just got my Galaxy Sage a couple of days ago so this vid couldn't have come at a better time. 🙏

Excelent video, one of my biggest issues is the "no constant" release, this helps a lot, thanks for Argentina NuSensei!

Thanks Nu! I've watched your channel a few times and this is by far the most helpful Video for me so far. I've Made an elastic Band and after using it then going back to the range my shots are better every time.! Still need a little more improvement but things have gone so much better now, I will keep practising.

Cheers new sensei, i remember focusing on back tension to aid release when learning compound. Even though the release aid is in use the same concept applies.

Wow thanks for this simple and so effective trick. I will immediately try it! Keep doing your thing, it’s great work!

Got my first recurve bow 11 days ago. Im able to hit a circle on a hay stack from 50 feet almost every single time. Many thanks to you sir and this channel

I'm not an olympic shooter, but I really like that phone explanation. Things like that really do a lot for people. One small thing can make all the difference. For me, shooting "horsebows" it was keeping the bow arm straight that really made a breakthrough. Have a happy new year

Some people have all the luck!

I have been doing archery for 3 years now, and been consistent for a year now in archery trainings. Anchor and release have always been a problem for me (perfect example like here 4:02 ; 7:40). Recently I changed most of my technique - starting with posture, set-up, etc, and one of the problems was muscles being all tense and not relaxed starting with a grip and wrist rotated wrong and not straight, which later was a simple chain reaction to everything else. Now I try to make my shot more relaxed, by using back muscles, without trying to involve my draw arm, so it's relaxed through the shot. Thanks to this video I saw all my mistakes I did before. Keep it up NUSensei, see you next time! 💪🏼

The most crucial step in archery; the release. Even after years of practice, we sometimes do it all wrong. At least, personally it still happens to me. I admit that the phone thing (or a similar wooden object for example) is a good idea. Happy new year to all !

After years people get the name archer. After more years, the people with the name archer are born and have nothing to do with archery. They actually like cycling instead.

This came at just the right time. A clean release is my New Year Resolution. Hope you have a great 2020.

Thanks NUSensei, I will practice this method.

Great videos. I am not even beginner archer (as that require to actually go and shoot) but your videos are so well made and explanatory, that I will probably start soon (obviously doing all the mistakes you mentioned in this and all previous and fallowing videos lol) Thanks for the vids anyway!

Thx very helpful. An old timer coach had mentioned to me that he twist his release hand in a bit like the 3rd finger to get the string aligned in the pocket of the tab or crooks of the knuckle. He shoots three under. This is also to incress the pressure ratio on the 3rd finger maybe for heavier bows.

Great video. Very clear explanation that I really needed. Thanks.

Awesome comment. I'm really practicing my release by letting it go, just like when i'm serving in tennis. Your explanation is superb and up to the point. THANKS for evrything. (M.G., Qc., Canada)

Thanks for that Video. Found that on a Website about releasing and it really helped me. Shooting for less than a year and the release was the one thing i couldnt do properly somehow. Even though i asked different people and watched multiple videos about releasing. So thanks man 👍

Thanks for pointing out about using the first joint in your fingers rather than using the finger pads itself. My coach was trying to get me to shoot from the finger pads which I found rather difficult and felt that the string would slip off at any moment when I come to full draw (I usually shoot from the first finger joint anyway) Needless to say that the back tension is a working progress at the moment

I'm new to archery and have relyed on KZread tutorials expressing each link involved with the of necessity form. Release is one of them, with a suggested of a second anchor point after "dropping the bucket" with your fingers visiting your ear. I can't argue that may be a good thing to do, but I could never figure out how to get there.Your video actually showed the resonsibility of fingers with the import of a clean release.

Extremely underrated video. You explain it so well

Another great informational video going to practice that I've always tried to not release the string I let the string release itself Happy New Year

One of yours best lessons...

I am so glad I came across this video, because a consistent and clean release is one of the things that has been difficult for me to implement. A nit-pick @8:28 I don't think it's contradictory to focus on relaxation of your hand. It's a mental effort to release tension with a part of your body.

Very useful explanation, thank you!

thank you sir! despite the many years this video is still stonks for future references! thank you for everything and new video when?

Superb. The hardest part of archery.

Your tips helped. My grouping got tighter and the arrows now have a deeper penetration. Even my bow sounds different now. The release is everything!

This is something I'm really struggling with. Thanks for your explanation.

Thanks! This is the thing I've been looking for 👍🏻

Just tried this release technique with my bow and my shot grouping halved in distance instantly. Awesome video =D

Thanks! Exactly what I needed at the moment!

Fantastic and super useful. Thanks

Almost always THE biggest challenge for me is a clean release! Thanks for this video. Questions: should back shoulder muscle expansion curve the hook around and behind one’s face anchor point? Does such expansion vary the draw length? How does one avoid the natural left drift of the bow arm with balanced expansion (push-pull of bow and string)? Thanks for your great work. Mike, Ahuimanu, Hawaii.

Thank you! Thank you! I've been trying to figure out why my arrows have been fishtailing!

I did this drill about a month ago with my coach! While we didn't use a phone, we used my finger tab without the finger strap. That way, it forces you to squeeze the spacer and have a proper release. The tab will still fall if you force the release. Doesn't risk the phone but is just as frustrating when the finger tab falls out of your fingers! XD

Thanks for the video and explanations, excellent.

This is a very good tutorial, thanks for sharing

Thanks, I'll try this out!

Best video of the year for me :-))

Great tips & video spot on. Only thing I would add is comment on maintaining back tension with good alignment insures that the draw hand/arm must go straight back based on Newtonian mechanics I.e. for every force there is an equal & opposite force(the back tension force in line). Great video

Excellent explanation. Very interesting, how advanced archery is concerning bio-mechanical principles.

Ok me tip I discovered for getting a good hand, wrist, and elbow alignment is to use a training bungie or the assembled bow and go through the process while looking at a mirror. Some people learn better if they see their form problems with their own eyes. This applies to many skills and sports where having good form is necessary.

Happy New Year NuSensei

Ps now buying a training aid and phone case!

I'm having a problem now with clean release, many years after I started doing archery. That reason is: finger savers. I started getting neurological damage where my fingertips remained numb for 24-48 hours after an archery session, even when I was using finger protecting glove (I shoot a 48 lb recurve bow). So I put finger savers on the string in addition to glove, and my releases were OK, but were pretty sloppy as sometimes finger savers would catch onto the glove a bit. So I took the glove off and this is where the issue started. I ended up plucking the string, because it subjectively felt like the string will roll away from me unless I grip it very tight. The only way I was able to avoid this is using only 2 fingers to draw and release, which still puts a considerable amount of pressure on my fingers, a bit more than I'm comfortable with. My dilemma now is to learn to release cleanly with 3 finger draw and with finger savers. I don't think I'll risk my phone though. Will probably try a less expensive object, just in case. Personally, I had immense success with caliper releases, even though they're meant for compound bows and I wonder if I should just stick to that method.

great video. thank you very much

I love this video. thanks for the help.

My release is inconsistent. I shall try this method thanks.

Very helpful, thank you.

You can do a clean release if you don't wrap your entire finger around the string. Pull the string just with the tip of your fingers. Pulling the string with the inner part of your knuckles that's just wasting time and effort for nothing. It just gets in the way. If you use the tip of your fingers it's just as secure as using half your fingers. Your releasw will be cleaner and easier too

Happy new year!!

Excellent video, David and Happy New Year !

Thanks for the videos 😊

Thank you for this video!

do you squeeze the spacers during the release and follow trough but if your not gonna relax the fingers the string wont move .

Interesting drill, I use a spacer on my tab shooting split finger, and will give this a try (with something other my phone).

@NUSensei

Use the tab itself. Don't put the strap on. The tab should stay in your hand.

what about the crowbar effect ? target lower than the force line and string pinch angel provide directional force .and how do you get around newtons 1st law , if the string travels at transverse angel to the bow the fingers will be pushed in the opposite direction during the angular motion , then the 3rd law ,your hands ,wrist or fingers should move at same speed as the string

This is good stuff! Thank you.

Interesting process, 'control without control'. That phone drill is good. Just make sure it's someone elses phone!!!

I got a lot out out of this and your vid on anchor points, I have a hard time feeling the string with the tab I'm using... could I fold back or move a layer or two out of the way until I feel the string in the first joint of my fingers? Should I skip the tab for a bit and gradually work my way to full draw?

Expand and it happens! Thank you!

The best way to be a great archer is by studying and practicing 'Dhanurveda'

Correct.

I dont move my hand at all when I release. Once I get the arrow and string pulled back, its anchored at a certain spot on my face every time. Never moves. This technique helps me a lot. Im gonna have to try that phone technique though. Im not sure if Im forcing my fingers or twisting the string..

Thank you

Love your videos! You seem like an awesome teacher. Are you in the states? I need to change teachers. The one I currently go to uses flogging as a disciplinary tool. One time he caught me pulling an inch short on my draw, and he gave me 25 lashes!! My back took weeks to heal. I understand he’s serious about archery, but a less stressful atmosphere would be nice.
