Day 7 of our summer pass class: Introduction to sights!
We had one of our students even try to robinhood 🏹 her arrow

For our game to have fun with their developing skills, we threw a 'last chance' option in, pushup for an extra arrow! Only 1 took the challenge to keep in the game to the bitter end.

Team 'Sight-less' (they went barebow/trad style) won against everyone else using sights!

Week 6 of our 8 week summer class - 🦖🐍🐰🐖
We mixed it up a bit to have some fun after going through the CANbow 10 steps and introduced all to 3D!

3D is all about learning to judge distance. Class participants got to shoot 3-18m and found shooting the closer targets was the most difficult!

Our student for the summer pass class where on lesson 5: "Release & follow-thru" last night with the added bonus of being introduced to shooting at 18m as well! A big step up from the 10m they started on.

Lots of steps have been built upon from the first class! 🤯 all 10 steps of the CANbow program can be overwhelming at first

2nd class of our very full summer pass class! Today's class was focusing on Basic stance and core engagement.
Stance is important to archery as it sets your foundation for everything that comes next! It is also step 1 in the Can-bow program🙃. A strong core locks your trunk down so you dont arch your back and provides stability. Shooting an arrow is easy, being consistent, that's hard!

The class finished off today with a game of shrinking target! The game starts with a BIG target and reduce the size each round! If an archer misses the target, it goes to the dungeon and the archer has one less (or 2 or 3 less arrows) to shoot the next round

Our teams facing off were "team 7", "Divias" and "Ping wings".

Ping wings claimed victory with 2 arrows hitting the paper once coaches Amanda and Nathan took the astray arrows (those that missed the paper entirely) away and locked them in the dungeon.
