Three Keys to Great Recurve Archery Technique

1. BODY ANGLE

This is important from when you first learn archery. If you don’t learn good body angle with stance correctly it’s difficult to have consistent distance groups. Practise the correct body angle!

2. HOOK

The fingers on the string are one of two points of contact between the archer and the bow. An accurate hook will make for a precise release and it will ensure stable finger positioning. The keyed is to removing tension and making sure the wrist is not bent. Make sure your finger tab fits your hand correctly, too.

3. RELEASE

As a beginner, before shooting, you should practise training your release first. Practise the feeling, direction and distance of your releasing fingers, he says – as this first method you learn will remain a habit for a long time.

Hope this helps and see you tomorrow.
