Man you mentioned every mistake that i made , i just bought my fist bow and I was so disappointed that I was going to return it. But with help like this I will try again and again, thank you. Muchas gracias por su ayuda.

@davidyoung1427 Год назад

Great point for all archers. I’m older now and wish that someone had told me this when I was younger. You can cause scarring in your shoulders and not know this until you tear something or later in life feel the effects of your injuries you have sustained in your youth. So take this in consideration when choosing a poundage that’s right for the individual. Start with an easily handled poundage and work your way up, but always use good form and hopefully you’ll have a long career shooting and hunting with your bow .😊

Into space is my new favorite saying when I’m teaching my friends and family how to shoot Archery.

@lorihamrick9349 Год назад

I tore my rotator cuff a few years ago because I was pulling my bow back incorrectly. I rehabbed my shoulder with the Archery Strong program and that is the only reason I can still shoot today. Good information in this video.

@krisaunedi4920 Год назад

Dude you are so 100% right on how to draw a bow correctly. You do the best example of how to draw your bow the wrong way and the right way. You should show the guy from Bow Disciples. I keep telling him that he is sky drawing and pulling too much draw weight on his bow. He tells me that I have no clue what I'm talking about but look at it. Keep up the great vlogs!!!

@Foreverbowhunting84 Месяц назад

lmao good luck. That James dude is a clown... I never seen someone with such bad form and punches the hell out of the trigger. And he really thinks he's good too. It's actually quite hilarious.

@scottharrison3461 Год назад

Great example on how to do it the RIGHT WAY!!!! Keep up the great videos !!

@WhitetailFit Год назад

Thanks so much!

@ZacBookPro 8 месяцев назад

This is a very knowledgeable person. Spending the majority of the video on what NOT to do, is only helpful for some. It will also confuse beginners, showing many incorrect ways to do things, when they have a clean slate.

@TheWVgoodguy22 Год назад

Way to look out for new and older archers alike. I have been telling people who will listen to draw consistently straight back with the right muscles 💪🏻. I have seen some athletic looking guys sky draw because no one showed them any different. Since I am not built like Thor 🔨 I have my bow set at 65 lbs with a 29.5 in draw with about a 470 grain arrow. I know that I can’t get 75-90 lb limbs back so I am happy where I’m at. Could I pull 70? Yes I am sure, but I don’t have to worry about backing it down for colder weather etc.,.

@crazyasian1975 Год назад

great video and love that bow color!

@scetchport 2 месяца назад

Thanks, i been drawing down at bottom of target for safety then lifting to bulls. Will do it right now. Great vid. Cheers from aussy.

@Pr1mitiveHunter Год назад

I’m glad that a lot of the RU-vid archers and good archers are finally addressing this. High poundage doesn’t matter it’s form and technique!

@DocHudson420 7 месяцев назад

High poundage does matter. It lets you shoot heavier arrows and creates more energy. Making the animal expire quicker

@monarch8086 Месяц назад

I have a compound bow but I’ve always been a little conflicted about it. With all the gadgets and doohickies, it doesn’t even seem like archery anymore

@pattowle4434 Год назад

That’s great info. When I was working in a shop it was amazing how many folks wanted the higher draw weight. Especially young bucks…the macho thing! Additionally when hunting try to stay within your body frame when drawing. Keeping within your silhouette hides lots of movement. Keep up the good info.

@proaquatics4005 7 месяцев назад

That slight lean toward the bow makes it a lot more back and less arm 👍

@clarkj83 11 месяцев назад

New subscriber and very new to archery. Loving the content!!!

@ipoopinwalmart5968 Год назад

Oof now seeing this I’m pretty sure I do one of these. I’m shooting in the morning. I’ll be on the lookout for it. Thanks for this.

@twhawx Год назад

Great video I was just working on this shooting today.

@luiscrespo9902 9 месяцев назад

Thanks!!!

@adamlimbach6756 Год назад

I generally think 7/10 people try and pull too much weight. The vast majority of Midwest whitetail hunters should be at 50-60 lbs in my view. Sure in the middle of summer with a T-shirt on shooting 3D 70 lbs is no problem. But when the moment of truth comes in mid-November with 4 layers of gear on, nerves, etc 60 is soooo much better.

@FIVE6-qk6pc Год назад

Ya I never understood that people at the shop will say are you going to be able to pull that on a cold day ect lol if that's a thought in your mind either workout or drop your weight

@WhitetailPursuit Год назад

Agree. I ran into a problem this past year pulling 60lbs.. got a little buck fever and had just a heck of a time pulling my bow back. Which led to bad form and not the greatest shot. We did end up finding it but it definitely made me rethink my drawing weight and form

@aaronshorter864 Год назад

I bought a new bow. Went 70# because that was what old one was. Since not practicing over winter I couldn’t get new bow back easily. Ended up dropping weight to 62 and am super happy with it. Plus body doesn’t hurt.

@transgenderedmuhammad8817 9 месяцев назад

You’re only saying this because you can’t draw 70lbs back

@Kingjesusxxl 9 месяцев назад

I’m drawing 68# no problem feels the same to me in all conditions

@Mattbarentsen 6 месяцев назад

Thank you

@minncrew Год назад

Thank you for the tips. Definitely have some things to work on! Any recommendations for what to work out to help build strength for shooting

@gcnphilly 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for covering this!! I see people drawing their bows wrong all the time. I always advise people to learn to shoot a trad bow first. Helps ensure you learn to shoot the right way first. -some ranges will kick you out if they see you sky draw.

@the_sharp_carpenter Год назад

Can you talk about the difference between sky drawing and how some people start with a high bow arm to keep the front shoulder from rolling forward and levering the bow downward as they draw directly to the face. I see lots of people saying this is sky drawing bit it is a technique taught by Some too end coaches. Think Chris Bee style of drawing. Good video 👍

@BucksBeesS.C. Год назад

Good info. Thanks

@toothlessarcher Год назад

Good video, the number of sky draws and people that look like they are overbowed is insane...

@WhitetailFit Год назад

Thank you! I just want to try an help archers with longevity and consistency! 👍🏼

@BowDisciples Год назад

Good video my man

@dozierlester4868 Год назад

Well done. Agree with David said below. Don't over bow, poundage, and good form scares less deer imho.

@brandonpatterson5705 2 месяца назад

Can you explain how to draw correctly? Like how do you use your back to draw?

@hamartime17 Год назад

Heck yeah Joel! Lookin jacked Brother

@robcarr8505 3 месяца назад

I shoot a 70# longbow. Do you know if that means i can start with a 60# compound? I just bought my first compound. Your form looks perfect. Thanks for the awesome video.

@muyspicypepper8258 4 месяца назад

Thank you for this video! As a hopeful new archer waiting for my bow to come in, I'm trying to learn as much as i can to be ready. Also, I'm not gay, but if this guy asked nicely.....😂😂😂

@timgruver5932 Год назад

Over the years at many local 3-d shoots I’ve talked people that are decent shots into shooting 15 yards sitting on a chair or whatever. After the shot I asked them to tell exactly what spot they were trying/ aiming to hit. Nearly everyone hit high. Sometimes it was only an inch+ and some were 3-4” high . Because of different posturing in your back is my thoughts. So if you’re target is 30+ yards are you going to hit high or high miss?

@White_devil1980 9 месяцев назад

I’ve seen this with cris bee when he is drawing his bow

@timgruver5932 Год назад

Wished so many could see this video. Watch any 3-d video of a TAC event or just at the local club and I’m betting 9 of 10 draw improperly? I had to lower my poundage a lot several years ago and work my way up so as to learn this. If someone is using a hinge this is the easiest and best way for safety and to get all the muscles set up. And I also believe there’s too many that draw way too much for no reason. But that’s a choice thing.

@Bryan-wc3et Год назад

Had a 7 by7 elk at 5 yds and couldn’t draw my bow had been sitting to long and pulling to much poundage. Went home sold that bow bought a 60 lb bow and shoot 54 pounds now. Hard lesson but a life changer. Leave your ego at home.

@timparrish1847 Год назад

We see the same things you went over at our range too And the sky jack is also NOT COOL We had a recurve guy sky jack and his arrow went well over 120 yds due to a slip off of his fingers you and Average Jack where one's I watched on rawing I draw 80+ lbs (short man sindrum) but I can with out alot of efort DUE TO the way you draw your bow I also use both arms (like you do with out knowing it) A small push from the front arm not quite 1/2 bent, and a pull with the rear arm elbow up high and both shoulder's stay up high as you drop into your archer point THAK YOU for doing this video I'm going to pass it along to other's who need help

@letsgobrandon8375 Год назад

My shoulder is wrecked from work so I can't draw my bow with my elbow up I had to work with my son because he couldn't understand why he wasn't pulling a lot of poundage. I realized he was trying to copy the way I draw. He started pulling the correct way and now he can pull more poundage at 15 than most of my buddies.

@johnhildenbrand2642 Год назад

Lol, I see a ton of YT folks out there who sky draw like crazy, and the fun bit is they are inevitably the sort that try to tell everyone else that their way is the best/proper way, and inevitably mock others for shooting lower draw weights.

@mikepewarchie9 3 месяца назад

How do i not almost dislocate my shoudler every time

@qb1390 Год назад

You actually have to use your lats. To much strain on rhomboid and trapezius muscles can result in injury. Picture putting your scapula in your left back pocket if you are a RH shooter.

@lCarrera7374 4 дня назад

It’s all about not over weight your bow, just pull the correct weight

@White_devil1980 9 месяцев назад

I have my bow poundage cranked down three or four turns so I can actually draw the bow comfortably 😊 otherwise I would not be able to draw it at all 😳

@pietrohernandes3647 3 месяца назад

What bow is that?

@jasonard7227 Год назад

so true man I see it a lot as well makes me cringe when I see the sky draw..

@CircumambulationMaedia 5 месяцев назад

"Just like that"... sky draws

@micahdunleavy9227 11 месяцев назад

Chris bee raises his bow to draw

@tstacy13 6 месяцев назад

Yes he does. Seems everyone has different views. I’ve heard don’t raise elbow high too but then some people do it.

@nunyabidness9578 6 месяцев назад

Sky drawing is the reason there are so many broken ceiling lights and holes in the ceiling at many pro shops.

@andrewvondoloski5541 24 дня назад

How?

@Brent_Rolston Год назад

I'm going to show this to my daughter, maybe she will listen to someone else showing her the proper way to draw her bow. lol

@flyfin108 8 месяцев назад

having elbow that high will injure your shoulder

@brianlew9559 11 месяцев назад

The "flagship" or even decent mid-end bows come as 60-70#. It's very difficult to find a decent bow that comes in 40-50, or can be adjusted with a range of 40-70. It really be hugely helpful if manufacturers didn't play to the speed game, and opened up the flagship market to more people. l don't want to spend on a lesser bow, then have to sell it. I'd like to have one bow that can handle a wider range. Also, there are times when it's cold or I'm just tired and more adjustability would be welcomed.

@wcwcgarner2717 Год назад

So many people derail there bow. Because they are over bowed

@jackbuendgen389 Год назад

Drawing a bow incorrectly. Temporary comfort, future rotator cuff surgery. Drawing a bow with a low elbow is not worth a nasty, painful surgery in your late 40's-mid 50's.

@WhitetailFit Год назад

Agreed!!

@sammyhughes6769 Год назад

A wise man once told me. That if you can't draw your bow sitting in a chair with your feet lifted off the floor your draw weight is to high. Using proper form as you've described.

@timgruver5932 Год назад

That is some great advice. I shoot a lot from sitting on my turkey hunting stool all year long

@WolfinWolvesClothing713 Год назад

Yep, a lot of people don't think about shooting sitting in their stand.

@georgewashington1621 5 месяцев назад

Its weird, when i draw i need to lean back my upper body otherwise i cant draw. So i can draw sitting no problem BUT if i can lean back while drawing, which ofcourse is not good for hunting situations

@sahhull Год назад

About 90% of RU-vidr 'experts' draw their bows incorrectly. I have wreaked shoulders. Not archery related, they were wreaked before archery became a hobby. My elbow will not go above armpit level. I cannot put my hands behind my back either. Im a target archer as bow hunting is illegal in the UK. Sometimes you just have to piss with the cock you got.

@billbertagnoli4226 5 месяцев назад

Great video. But....... I think YOU Are drawing too much weight Arcing your torso forward and Pulling to your full draw is really Just another version of the " sky draw". Try holding your bow in the Position you would release from And then draw the bow.

@christofferfehr7914 8 месяцев назад

with the sky draw being wrong and ground draw being wrong. from what i saw the only difference from the sky draw, ground draw, and yours is the area you are pointing the bow. on the trigger arm. they seem to be pulled all the same way. my question how do these three draws affect your draw shoulder vs the across the chest draw? if you have time would be nice to see how each draw works what muscle. sky draw, ground draw, right way to draw. and across the chest draw.

@williambilse 2 месяца назад

IMO your draw shoulder looks wonky. You are kind of rotating it up and forward pre-draw, and pulling your shoulder back and down to draw. Any coach I have seen has you rotate your shoulder around your body. And coil/uncoil the torso simultaneously to help take some load off the shoulder. I'm guessing you are injury free because you are a healthy beast man. Not because you have proper drawing technique.
