How do you balance staying proud and tall with letting air out? I feel like it would cause me to collapses slightly.
You are an excellent bow man. I learned so much from you. It really help me to be more accurate. Love u man😊
why do bows mid 2000 to 2011 never need shims, very simple to line centershot and have bullet holes? todays crap slower bows, upto cant do speeds, need shimming cause they cant center cams anymore, cant do correct drawlengrhs anymore- adjustable cams lol so funny the inderstry is similar to the early 80s yet expect rediculous prices for downgraded gimmicky crap. 2015 had the last bow worth purchasing. bear i must admit have some interesting bows to consider. no other companies have anything worth considering, all gimmick crap, cant tune out of the box anymore, such a kick in the ass to purchasers
Good stuff bro like always. Thx John.
I shoot in the early morning as well, you’re not alone.
I could not understand
Slow breathing is great while practicing, but when a deer walks by, my heart and breathing go wild lol
29inch, 500gr axis 12% foc, 302fps. people with slow bows, 420gr at 280fps tell me to go light im shooting to slow since my arrow is heavy to them. foc i found recently new arrow build, same weight but 6% higher foc, need 55m tape marking to hit 50m. why such a drop on target, equal weight doesnt seem to impact the same with foc change
This video is for me! I used the Nochon wrist strap tension release for almost a year and I could never seem to get the bow to fire at consitant tensions? Tension always seemed to slip and become impossible to fire? I thought maybe the tephlon is failing? Yes I know not to tighten it too much. Can you offer more tips on why the jaw seemed to always jam? When I get the tension just right the release works brilliantly but then jams again and i'm developing different kinds of target panic as a result. To hear you explain how the release is sensative to presure and that this requires a refined techneque makes so much sense!
I've been practicing this since I watched it a few weeks ago and it's helping a lot. I really don't like to let down, so sometimes I take another breath, reset my front shoulder, re align the peep and level and hold again. I think that's more relative for hunting situations where the deer moves and you have to wait for another opportunity.
Thanks dude great vid looks awkward as heck to demonstrate
When you breathe, do you push your diaphragm down and stomach out or expand your chest?
No way you don't cancel the shot you stay in it and use that as an opportunity to focus extra hard and still make a good shot because a hunting situation won't allow you to let down your bow infront of a big buck.
It's easier for taller people to acquire their target faster. So you are saying draw, anchor, peep, acquire the target, THEN final breath, stabilize and start shot process?
Nice - thanks for sharing John.
Same for firearm marksmanship
The attention to detail is precise like only a bowhunter can give. Thanks JD. :)
John thank you for the archery info.
Travel ❤ Mmm M
Bought the Nock 30 for my new bow! Love it to death!!! hope to see you at Utah TAC so you can sign the Limb.
This guy is the GOAT of teaching!
At what point do you adjust the location of the thumb button, or do you just adjust your hand?
The funniest thing is... for most people, terrible form and shot follow through is actually what's affecting their accuracy.
Great video! Thanks! What arrow weight and FOC would you recommend for someone who is just target shooting and not hunting? I've only been shooting for about a year and I'm pulling 55lb, have a 28.5 inch draw length, and IBO of my bow is 325. By next year I'd like to be competing in field archery, up to 80 yards.
I'm right handed, left eye dominant and shoot left handed. Never heard heard of people shooting opposite their dominate eye. What's the rational for that?
This is 101 pre-selling the product with anecdotal evidence. All broadheads do well with proper shot placement. Don’t fall for the marketing hype. If this head was so awesome why didn’t they show us controlled results through an elk or deer shoulder bone? Because there isn’t any folks. All talk. They show you what they want you to see/hear so you will buy.
The problem is I own one bow and my sight is set up for my hunting arrow. So do I change sight tapes to match a TAC arrow or build the arrow to match my hunting set up? Or buy a target bow 😅
Prep for what you will do 90% of the time and deal with the other 10%
Awesome tip sir! 🤘
Did you tune for the heavier arrow or shoot the same pins for both arrows to see the drop.
The "Arrow weight argument" has nothing to do with target archery. If anyone was only shooting foam, you'd always go the biggest lightest arrow..... it's a no brainer
(Skinniest), lightest arrow. lol wind drift matters more than line cutting at tac events, I promise.
@@maxbehr3095 true did not consider that...
Dudley just doesn't get it
I wonder, how good would this guy shoot if I handed him my old circa 1982 Martin Cougar 2 with Chck-it sight and XX-75 arrows. I don't want to shoot some $1,000+ setup. And that is why I'm looking for a Cougar or Jennings Arrowstar. bows that I once understood.
good video just clarified some points as a beginner but must say would have been much more helpful is you showed some footage of the sight picture also
Great video, I have been looking for something like this. Relatively new to archery, 2 years, and still learning a lot. Got a site that had ability to adjust vertically. It has you site in at 20 and 60 yards. My current setup can’t get to 60. I’m a pretty short guy, 5’3” shooting 50 lbs, using a wrist release and was having a hard time understanding why I couldn’t get the site to 60. I think my issue is peep site to arrow. Thank you for helping to understand all of the variables that go into distance!
If you use the same bow for target/practice and hunting, is there an easy way to deal with changing the sight pins when you’re adjusting the draw weight? Or must you deal with re-sighting in each time?
Hello. Great video. Can you tell me what you are shooting grains per pd? Arrow total weight and bow poundage? Just curious what guys like yourself are shooting in general in regards to grains per pound. My current is 6.8 grains per pd ( 65pds weight with 444 grain FMJ with 100 grain) Thanks!
Contra code is the best. ☝️☝️👇👇👈👉👈👉AB Start.
This is not new. Pse had this in the 90’s.
Well said Brotha……all too often I see these archers spending too much time tinkering with their equipment, and NOT putting enough reps in their range time. I always tell my students……it’s not how much you spend on high dollar equipment, or how much you tweak to get that elusive high score……its range time, conditioning, and form discipline. Your bow isn’t gonna shoot itself to get you victories. It’s WORK 😎🏹🏹🏹👍Thanks for sharing John 👍I referred my students to your content to put my point across to them 👍
I did 50g insert, 100g field, sonic KE...at 68lbs it was great out to 110+...about 406g total arrow weight. I have no idea how to hunt, but I can kill some foam.
Looks like you getting sloppy with that group 😅
I understand what you're saying. What I want to know is are those special pants with a side pocket for arrows?
I think that’s the Sitka Gear Range Pant.
You should try podium archers 30 grain titanium inserts
White Chocolate....just like Jason Williams 😂
Hemothorax vs Pneumothorax Both are equally lethal. With a thoracic puncture and air in and out, the other lung still colappses. Hemo-pneumo thorax is more lethal. So, arrow in or arrow out? I am calling BS.
Nice tree in background
"The only arrows you can control are the ones still in your quiver." That's wisdom. 🙌
Call it “White Shadow”!
On average, each 20 grain more slows down the arrow by 7fps.
What is the effective difference in changing the weight of the insert vs the tip? It seems either would have the same effect. Is there a reason to choose the insert (which can't easily be changed) over a tip change (trivial change)? I just got a dozen Sonic-KE from Nock-On and they came with 75/50 inserts, so trying to decide which way to go.
Actually, the heavier the tip of the arrow the higher your foc will be. A higher foc will make the arrow nose dive faster. This was explained by Easton so I'm not making it up. I played around with some numbers and a 100 grain tip with a 50 grain insert gave me an foc of 14.1 A 125 grain tip with a 25 grain insert gave me 14.5 foc. Not a huge difference but to answer your question, it's not exactly the same thing.
