Bullseye

I’ve been working with the recurve bow I picked up on September 7. After lots of trial and error, I’m finally starting to get the hang of it. I managed to achieve a goal Saturday that had eluded me for the past month.

At first, I was unable to draw the string back to full position (50 pound draw weight). I’ve now built up enough shoulder strength to do so, and have drastically decreased the hits to my support arm from the string.

Initially, I used a 2/1 finger grip (two fingers under, one finger over) with the arrow resting underneath the nock. I switched to a 3 finger under grip with the arrow above the nock and found that worked better for me.
