Topic: University Archery

Today, I had two classes of honors students at my university visit the new archery club and I taught them how to shoot a bow.  We had a great time, but it was much too short.  The classes are very small, so I can spend more quality time with the students.  Their form wasn't all that great, but they had a really fun time.  Here are pics from this morning.  I started teaching thumb ring use, but the classes are too short (75 min.) to be able to do it adequately, so I ended up having students shoot with fingers.  However, many of my students want to come back and learn thumb ring shooting properly.
