The example with a car's manual transmission is pure gold. Thanks, Jake!

Thanks!

I don't shoot Olympic Recurve so I don't use a clicker, but I still found this both helpful and interesting... when you shoot disciplines like trad or barebow that don't utilize a clicker you really have to pay a huge amount of attention to the transfer and expansion portions of your shot to get them as consistent as possible. Some good takeaways in here regardless of whether you shoot with a clicker or not.

I think it was me who asked you about this topic regarding what full draw means when setting the clicker. I took your advice and shot way better and became your patreon right away cause this one tip changed my groupping quite dramatically.

Glad to hear it!

I'm fighting exactly this battle - expansion/hook/clicker setting - every day lately in my 20 metre lockdown backyard Agincourt . Watched this video when it was first released - since then worked on my form, bought a proper bow, filed the video away in my head, coming back to it now to help me address some issues that I didn't understand this time last year. This is without doubt The Best Archery Coaching Resource on KZread. Possibly the best there is on the internet. IMHO. And give my regards to Heather :-D How's she shooting lately?

It's not always windy here in the UK, we do get a few days of calm weather :-) Joking aside, my club is by the sea and it is a challenge at times, so a timely shot cycle is vital. Great video, I like the car gears analogy.

Thank you for your coaching Jake, it's really valuable! I'm happy that you have confirmed everything I took from looking at younger you at tournaments and deducting the tricks. All works well!

hi jake. was just discussing clicker with my coach last week. good vid. get well soon and take a break from producing videos. health and family is more important for now.

Found the manual gear shifting a very good and clear way to explain the process 👍

Very useful video about using the clicker and expansion 👍

Hadn’t thought about this...will definitely see if my Clicker is set right and try the humming method. I just got accepted to be a 2021 RED Camp member too so videos like this help tons on little things! Keep it up Jake!

Great content as always Jake! Shot cycle going much better since our coaching session! Keep it up, and I hope you guys recover well from Covid :)

Brilliant video Jake. I was struggling with this exact problem today. Thanks from Western Australia.

Really helpful video Jake. Struggling to get my head around this stuff...you really explained it well. Saw an instant improvement. Cheers!

Thanks Jake, insightful as always... stay well, Mate, I hope you and your family are not too hard hit by COVID.

Excellent advice Jake. Thank you so much for all the videos. You are irreplaceable.

I’ve been holding off on mounting my new clicker because I would have been guessing. Thanks for the knowledge share Coach Jake.

Get well soon Jake !

great video love the giggle when hitting tripod

Thanks Jake, you really helped me a lot!

good video thanks jack

Your explanations are awesome! Thank you very much 👍

Thanks man that was good teaching

Very interesting, review how the close up of the riser upon loose, and the upwards jump. It's intriguing.

Thank You, I love your Videos best regards from Germany

i really like the hum method for clicker training.

Thanks for your good explanation Jake wonderful!

Great vid as always, very interesting. 👍

Great lesson! Thanks

A question - how do you develop the skill to reliably have close to 2mm left for expansion once you have come to anchor and completed transfer? Are there specific drills or techniques one should be using to develop that ability. If this question is covered in your form series I must have missed it (having looked). In my personal case, the only way I can check how much I have left is to look at my clicker and watch for it to begin moving inward toward the riser as it gets to the arrow point. But that requires taking focus away from the target for a moment, which I don't want to do. Meanwhile, how long I have left to expand makes a big difference to my shots: if I have left too much to expansion, I tend to shoot my worst shots, but it takes a lot of discipline to come down off the shot if the expansion is taking too long. Also, one only has the confidence to expand slowly if you know that you dont have far to expand. Any guidance welcomed!!!!

Thanks Jake, hope y’all don’t get sick over in the States.

Dear Jake, very professional as every time! Do you think "The double clicker by Filippo Clini and XT-EE Archery" can be usefull to better understand clicker use? They are two clicks at little distance first to second. Thanks a lot!

Very nice Jake sir.....

Subbed!

Hi Jake! Another good video! Some top shooters take a brief look to the arrow point at full draw. What do you think about this?

Get well soon Jake, that should be your priority as you know already. Excellent comments and advice as always. Just wondering about the feel of the points against the clicker. Some points are almost polished smooth, and they give very little feel through the drawing hand. Those that feel lathe turned give you a very good feel and I am able to judge EXACTLY where the clicker is in relation to the very tip of the point. I would love a two stage clicker, but they are banned under FITA rules. I presume the same applies for using two clickers.

I detest feeling machining marks or dings in my points, when there is a crowd at a finals and you rely on the feel of the clicker in the riser and not the audible click, machine marks will give you false feelings of the clicker dropping.

@adamkilroe9840

@@JakeKaminskiArchery definitely with you on the dings on the points, but I'm going a bit deaf these days, so I have to rely on feel more than sound anyway, especially when it's really windy. I had to take the plastic tip off the clicker too for the same reason. Before my hearing became dodgy - and my kids take advantage of it and make fun of me, you've got that to look forward to 🤣🤣 - I once shot through my clicker because some git tinged their clicker right behind me. Lost a fletching, the arrow because it hit the wooden stand and snapped, nearly my temper, and my clicker went round like a Catherine Wheel (I shoot left handed). Almost as funny as when a bee flew up a fellow archer's rather long and flowing dress and she loosed her arrow straight at the floor before lurching round and screaming like Yoko Ono at a gig. Hope you feel better soon. My advice as a former nurse is increase your vitamin C and zinc intake which will boost your immune system. I wish you and your family all the very best.

How long are your arrows to use with a clicker

Thank you Jake. May I ask : how to get better control of the draw length?

@martintsang2537

I mean, how to have a consistent draw length?

HI Jake, have you ever used "double clicker"? Two thin plate clicker, the under one is set to your anchor position, the upper on you release position. The first one clicks when you reached your anchor, the second when you have to release.

Hi Jake, a little off-topic, but why did you stop shooting the Hoyt Ion-X?

I have it about there too :) My only problem is that I'm using the wrong arrow spines so I will have to move my clicker again when I get the correct arrows lol

Which clicker manufacturer do you have on your bow? I'm looking for something like that.

Jake. Are the "Clickety Click bow clicker" type clickers allowed?

Depends on the sanctioning body. Reading their rule book is always where to start when wanting to compete.

I can't quite tell. Is your clicker part of the sight mounting block, or is your clicker mounted on the site bar? I have a Win & Win clicker that bolts right onto the riser, but I don't feel like it's very stable in it's placement. After some number of shots, I feel like the clicker is creeping.

I am just 57 seconds into the video, but already i noticed, that usually, i put my finger sling on my middle finger. So does almost everybody at my club. Is that just a different preference or something wrong amateurs do?

I've noticed it seems to almost be a regional thing as well. I feel with it on my middle finger it is further away from the grip and less likely to induce torque than it would on my index finger. This is just my opinion... all comes down to preference and or comfort.

Meta DX Riser, new for 2021. Jake got one for review.

You can tell from the rpm that you are a domestic guy lol

When I set my clicker I make sure that I am at full draw but not full extension while still on the arrow. Then as I expand it drops. Like you said, if you push that too far it requires reaching beyond a normal draw and limits your ability to draw smoothly through the shot.
