Archery Geek Outdoors

In this episode, I look back at the weekend meet up held by The British International Bowhunters in Norfolk and try a breakfast recommended to me by Simon Thomas https://www.instagram.com/ramblingarcher/ I seem to use the word amazing a stupid amount of times in this episode so the weekend was obviously amazing.

In this episode my Bear Kuma has made it across the Atlantic to The Archery Shack in South Carolina for repair, I've got some arrows fletched with the 2.25" Bohning X3 vanes and after listening to a podcast from The Art of Manliness I discover why we over eat in an attempt to keep my weight loss on track after a week of struggling with my food intake.

After a fairly quiet week for me I hit a weight loss goal and take the time to thank those who have supported my efforts so far and talk about the Go Fund Me page started by the guys at The Wobbly Arrow Podcast for Heath McDonald of Young Guns Archery to assist in his ongoing battle with cancer.

In this episode I talk about some new vanes that I'm going to try out, adding to my exercise routine and how an awful rookie mistake led to disaster for me.

In this episode I get a present from a listener and friend in the States, I've shot some more 300 rounds and I've switched releases plus the usual waffle and bletherings that I seem to do.

In this episode I take a look at exercises that I can do at home to improve my cardio fitness, what basal metabolic rate is (doesn't that sound interesting?) and have a moan about the ongoing Covid 19 situation and the inability of dumbasses to follow basic rules.

In this episode I look back at a week where I lacked self discipline more than usual, particularly in relation to exercise and look at methods of assisting to develop more self discipline.

In this episode I look at the importance of hydration in relation to my shooting performance and my overall health and fitness. There's an update in the ongoing saga of the sight and news of a new UK based archery podcast that has just been launched.

My new wrist sling has arrived from Shooting Skulls in South Carolina and a run through of the tuning steps that I'm going to go through with my bow now I've shot in the new cables.

Well, I made it past episode 7 which bodes well. In this episode I talk about an early morning hike to watch a sunrise in Shropshire and the first milestone in my quest to lose my excess weight along with working on skeletal alignment at full draw.
