A tricky one to get over via video and possibly a little ambitious but here goes...
Having a consistent and effective technique is important but so is the psycological side of archery.
I think at one time or other we all have that fight against our own self especially when trying to train and improve.
This video is entitled "Train your brain" and is an attempt to explain how I compartmentalize my shots when Im training into 3 distinct mental phases:
1. Pre-shot phase
2. Shot phase
3. Post-shot phase
If you can train your thought process to be desciplined and, most importantly, avoid "bleed-through between these phases it can really strengthen the psycological side of your archery.
Avoiding bleed through from one arrow to the next is critical to this.
One you've finished the post-shot analysis of one arrow make a clear mental break before going into the post-shot of the next arrow. Start each shot with a clean slate and avoid bringing mental "baggage" into the arrow shot sequence.
A tricky subject to try to get over so I hope some of what Im trtying to impart makes sense :)

Great info. You are so right about letting the subconscious mind take over to complete the shot cycle.

Excellent video, a very thorough yet simple coverage of the topic. I enjoy your attitude about archery and training, keeping it fun, I find that if I start thinking too hard about it my shots go down the tubes. "Live archery, Love archery, Laugh when you screw up".

Great clip! I am watching to adapt this to my Disc Golf putting. Playing nationals in 2 days and my putt went to hell so bringing it back to basics. The shot sequence you describe is great. Step.. focus..shoot..and... Drop it!!. Become present.. and repeat.. I will just trust my 1000's of hours of practice. Thanks for posting!

Nice video , thanks, you are are right about thinking about each shot, I am pretty new to archery and i got too used to just flinging arrows down with no improvement, until it occurred to me, analyse every shot, and to realise 'It is not luck,' Wolfie and and the rest are great because they hone it down, and practice hard

Good video, thanks. Especially the part about separating shots - I often fall into that trap and you simply get demoralised. Off out to try my new psychological shooting skills :-)

Thanks for sharing this with us and I think it has several very beneficial implications for all archers. The bleed through aspect is very true and can have a very negative effect. One addition I would make in the post shot is something I try and have students consider when I'm coaching which is the positive feedback. When a shot goes well for them, I try to make them consider that and the elements that came together for it to work so they can replicate it..

Don’t know how true it is, but in Kyūdō them hitting the target is thought of as secondary, and form is primary. Keeping that idea in mind while shooting might help.

I agree. Although a few fundemantals need to be observered the hunt for "perfect form" is much over-rated. If shooting is consistent and accurate then I follow the following mantra... If it aint broke dont fix it LOL!

@@RobinhoodarrowsRHA as far as I’m concerned, the perfect form is the one that a given archer finds comfortable, repeatable, and puts the arrow where it’s supposed to be. I find so much in archery that is different from person to person, that the idea that a single form doesn’t make sense.

Get Zen - it theorises what's going on better than some sort of over complex pseudo scientific effort to study gap and try and artificially mechanise the action in the moment. Nice video. Fluidity of bodywork matters but what you call 'bleed through' as a conscious and conflicted thought process is very true. This is why it is wise to not reinforce that mindset with highly expressed emotional responses to a 'bad' shot (which are both defeatist and an externalised performed excuse). Good breathing technique helps to move away from this (Tai chi - best warm up). The worst scenarios are 'bad days' - just stop and accept that it will pass. Have a sarnie, have a cuppa, go back later, if it's still crap - go home or enjoy watching others. It will pass.
