Have had a blast watching the kids shoot their Genesis bows in an archery league so I decided I wanted to join them. However, I've never shot a bow before and did not want to spend "compound bow" $.
That led me down the Amazon road; to the SWA Spyder 62", 45lb takedown recurve bow ... Cheapest 400 spine 12 pk of Amazon carbon fiber arrows... sore fingers so Fred Eichler 3 under tab... etc.
I've tried to learn (read & watch) as much as I can about proper form. Shot my older daughter's Genesis at ~15 lbs to work on form but now I'm asking the pros what I should do to improve?
Daughter said my follow through is not good (and I really see that on first shot where I release then remember to pull back! ) Therefore, I probably need to work on back tension at release. What else?
Thanks in advance Green Screen!
