I just got into archery about a month ago. Out of all the videos I've watched, yours have helped me the most. Appreciate your help, brother!

Hi Jeff, I would like to say thank you for your commitment to making our archery experience more enjoyable by helping us with the critical details we must not neglect. You have been my personal bow technician and coach this past year, and when I put it all together correctly, I can shoot the flea's off the neighbours dog 🤣😁 thanks to you, sir 🙏 Bless you, brother Peace Happiness ✌️

You could do a “from the stand” series that I bet would help a lot of people. Me included

Brother thank you so much for these tuning and form videos everything improved 80% with my traditional archery ❤

A solid anchor point is the most important part of the shot sequence I think. When I shot compound barebow class, I used a tab. I learned a trick from Ed Eliason years ago. I cut a small notch in the the top of my tab, and at full draw that notch would fit between my right front tooth and the eye tooth next to it. It was about as solid an anchor point as you could get doing that, and I won a lot of tournaments shooting that way. If you shoot a tab, it might be worth a try for you.

I'm glad that u touched on the shooting in a 🌳. So many r doing the 🌳 ambush but it's going to feel alien to most if all they do is shoot from the ground. I took to the recurve & also shot compound but didn't feel the passion or the accomplishment with that like i did shooting the trad bow. However I struggled with it until i started shooting rough fish with it from a platform in a boat. From there my brain took over with more familiarity. From there i shot alot of 3D deer from up in a 🌳. I'm sure many hunters with the compound have noticed their arrows hitting a little off from a 🌳. It is a good learning tool since the word 3D means not flat & hitting that 3D target & dissecting the shot as well as where the exit should be is a huge part of hunting. 😮

Thanks for all the help with this continuous traditional archery journey. Always something to work on and practice

Thanks, Jeff! I'm glad to see someone else stressing the importance of a repetitive shot process, a proper form & anchor, and expanding through release.

That was very helpful. I can't wait to try it.

Keep them coming, all information is helpful.

If shooting with a plunger, increased plunger tension can cause bare-shaft to go left of where a fletched arrow aimed to same place will go. If just shooting off the shelf (as I do my longbow) then it's mostly a matter of adjusting the spine, starting with the recommended spine/tip/length as per many charts available for doing so, or sometimes even the fletch. Nice that you share as you learn.

Great Video as usual! Solid no nonsense information Jeff!

Thanks Jeff, the rifle analogy really made sense

Thanks Jeff. Good instruction. 👍

Thank you Jeff for the quick reply regarding your bow in this video. Its a beauty.

Hi Jeff thanks for amazing video!! I should have my trad bow in the next week or so.. looking forward to getting into it.. Videos like these are a godsend because i dont know anything about shooting a trad bow but im sure willing to learn..God bless you my friend for showing us the way to traditional archery.. ive taken 25 deer with a compound and if im shooting good with me black hunter recurve by october i might take it to the stand cut this fall i will probably be more after grouse with the recurve!!

Good form there Tex. Even when you try to mess up 👍

Always feel like i learned something with every video. Thanks.

Said Very Well!! Thanks 👍 Brother 👍

You’re awesome in describing the multiple aspects affecting the shooting. When I see the way you release how do you do this while hunting? I mean do you have to wait to the VERY last moment to strech the bowstring?

I enjoyed this thanks! 🏹

Very good stuff. Anchor and alignment make or break accuracy. I struggle with anchor but shoot close enough I get away with but I am always working on it. Enjoy your common sense approach on your videos.

Great video that will help a lot of archers!!! I use to point the bow off the target and then draw j hook and draw wide to the target. Now I'm trying to aim on target take up the string slack and rest my string hand thumb knuckle on my cheek bone getting my sight picture then drawing the bow and anchor on my cheek bone. This helps with my alignment!!

Mr . Jeff I would love to see video about your bow collection

Do you do controlled release or surprise release? I’m struggling with that also. Thanks!

Hi Jeff, I have been enjoying your video for a while now and have picked up several helpfull tip that have improved my shooting. Your videos on arrow height have tightened up my groups 10 fold. I will continue to view your videos and look for more improvement tips. Thanks for sharing your Instinctive Traditional Shooting and Tech Knowledge. Can you tell me the Manufacturer of the buetiful bow you used in this video because I'm looking to add a new one to my collection. Thanks again. And may God Bless you. JBarr11

During your anchor where is the string in relation to your eye.

Hello Jeff, do think newer bows are more accurate than bows (recurve) of 1974? I am still working on tightening up my groups. This is a big help thank you kindly. I have tuned my new arrows and they fly great. It is deffintly me.

Since I shoot 3 under my anchor is my index and middle finger falling on my cheek bone. One on top one underneath the ridge of the bone. Keeps my draw length consistent and a very repeatable anchor. Really gets the anchor high and keeping gaps small so when that heart is pumping when an animal is coming in there isn't too much thought other than to stare at my spot and smooth release.

Hey Jeff, I just stumbled on this expansion after hitting anchor last night, I've been doing it wrong this whole time!, but boy did it make a difference!

TY

Hello Jeff...I do not see the Bearpaw shooting glove that you are using on the 3Rivers Archery website.

What model Bearpaw glove are you using in this video? I would like one that’s allows for a bit more string feel than the one I currently have.

Hi Jeff, thank you very much for your video. The pattern on the limbs of this bow of yours is very beautiful. I love this pattern so much that I would like to add a similar one to my limbs as well. This pattern looks like you painted it on, not the original natural pattern of the wood. Can you tell me how you made this pattern? Thank you very much.

I was exactly like that guy , I increase the brace high of my bow and I fixed.

It could be that the archer is canting the bow slightly and not compensating for the different flight profile

Another great tip! I was annoyed with my glove so I switched to a tab but lost the string feel. I got frustrated and used bare hands but could only shoot a handful of times without them hurting. Turns out the leather on my glove was too thick and stiff (cheap quality). I need to get a better quality glove with soft leather!

This is a question and not so much about this video. You always stress focusing on the exact spot on your target. My question is if your shot is 30 yards do you still focus on that pinpoint area when you know there’s gonna be a huge drop In arrow flight?

Hi Jeff, greetings from Australia. I've watched your channel for a while and recently subscribed. Thanks for the AWESOME knowledge and your time. Quick question, what bow are you using there ? In particular the limbs ? They look soo sexy and seem lethal ! Looking forward to your reply, thanks in advance .

What is pulling threw the shot?
