This book was recommended to me by a fellow archer and it really helped improve my form and learn more about archery.

Being an Archer of some years, I would never recommend taking all your information from an Archery Book - any Archery book.
Always liaise with a good Coach as you can't beat a good Coach with tangible, repeatable, accessible knowledge.
All that said, knowledge is power, as they say. And this book is a well written, with a good set of images and photographs' explaining what is one of the best ways of shooting a bow, and Compound Bows in particular. Larry is known as a Coach in his home country and the information is given in a logical well explained order. Would certainly recommend this book to anyone who shoots Compound

Worth the read and the money
10 Aug 2009
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am brand new to archery. I heard about this book from forums on the Internet and purchased it from Amazon. I am glad I made that decision. After talking with the pro at our local archery shop, I knew that I would eventually want to shoot a back tension release and Larry Wise outlines a good program that would lead to success. I ordered a bow and in the five weeks spent waiting for it to arrive, I practice with the string loop and my release on a daily basis. It has paid off. I am not there yet but an headed in the right direction. Also, Larry points out the importance of relegating all of components of making a good shot to the subconscious - except for aiming - focusing on the target. I know this to be a sound concept from all the years I spent target shooting with pistols, rifles, and especially shotguns. The book also gives some good advice on how to practice - have a specific goal and concentrate on that one thing. The book is an easy read. I read it the first time in one evening. If you are like me, you will refer back to it frequently. If you are serious about archery, this is a must read.

Crucial Techniques for All Archers
16 Aug 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is short and sweet, and to the point. The point being, shooting more consistently. Mr. Wise explains how to unlearn the bad habits we have all formed in naive, self-taught archery. He goes in-depth about how to get rid of the muscles which will fail you in your shot, while using the correct muscle groups. These muscles are the core of Core Archery, along with a set of habits that will lead you into a better focus routine. I think anyone who desires to take their archery to the next level must give this book a shot!

Strating of right
14 Jun 2007
Format:Paperback
An excellent book that should be "compulsory" reading for any person serious about archery. If I read the book when I started archery I would not have had to unlearn the many bad habits I learnt or have been taught over the past three years.
A clear and practical step by step guide to get any serious archer in shooting his best shot.
