Episode 48 focuses on just simple tuning basics.  We've done episodes on tuning in the past.  But in this episode we try to break it down into simple logic.  From how to set the exact center shot (no 13/16 is not the automatic go to all the time) to nock height and preventing arrow pinch and paper tuning at the PROPER distance.  We go over the basic supplies you should have to get the job done, and most of them you already own!

Episode 47 focuses on what we call the total release solution.  In this episode we cover how to make your release an extension of your body.  What to look for and how to set it all in motion for a controlled shot.  And while most would think this only applies to compound shooters and mechanical releases, it all applies to traditional and recurve shooters as well. We will delve into how they also need to have a total release solution and how to achieve it.

Episode 46 focuses on bow sights and peeps.  We have discussed this before but we will get into what kind of sight is right for you and why.  And how the peep sight (there are many variations) fits into all of this. We will also cover how something as simple as how the peep sight is set up can drastically affect how far you can shoot with your sight (regardless of your ability).

Episode 45 is all about effective range.  its a topic we've discussed in the past, and normally it is usually directed towards bowhunters only.  But as you will find out, it also has a lot to do with target shooters.  We'll get into what its all about, factors that affect your effective range, and most importantly, how to extend it.

And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy.  Not a crazy one, but I do try to get a point across with this one!

Episode 43 is about strength vs technique.  You can be as strong as an ox, but without proper technique, pulling back a 40 or 50lb bow could be really difficult.  It all boils down to technique.  We will go over my method when it comes to drawing properly, what it really comes down to, and how its easier to escalate your draw weight than you would think.  We'll cover how i get my students shooting practically any draw weight they desire as long as they follow this simple method.

And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy.  Have to apologize in advance, this one got really heated.  But its one of those subjects that tends to set me off!

Episode 42 features our special guest Richard Clarke, host of the Archery Geek Outdoors Podcast.  Richard is based in the UK and we got together on this one to discuss various topics including what makes a good coach, hunting, archery shops, and a host of other subjects.  It was a great chat that I've been looking forward to for a while.  Getting the perspective of someone from outside the US is always eye opening for sure.  This was the first of a series of podcasts we will do with Archery Geek Outdoors so stay tuned for more.

And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy.  This one wasn't exactly planned, but Richard brought up a subject that lets just say required some heat to be brought down upon some folks.  It won't disappoint!

Episode 41 is all about blank bale shooting.  Preached as the only cure for target panic by most coaches, its really not what its cracked up to be.  In fact, used improperly, it can make things worse.  Its has its purpose but not necessarily in the way its been pumped up as as end all be all cure for this dreaded problem.  Don't worry, we get into how to use it properly and how we address target panic in other ways.

And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy.  Little more heated this time....but it gets the pint across!

Episode 40 is all about being too rigid when it comes to coaching form or a particular system.  What works for some will not work for everyone.  Sometimes coaches make their students bend and conform to a particular system just for the sake of it, or because its what's supposed to be done.  And the results are often detrimental to the students.  

We will also get into what to do if you don't have access to a coach nearby, what to do, and how to make it work for you.  The fact is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting improvement just doesnt work.  We get into how you can fix shooting problems with just a few small tricks that most coaches know but won't tell you.

And as always there is another edition of don't be that guy.  Not a big rant this time....but it gets the pint across!

A short time ago, i decided that with so many things going on in my life, namely a divorce, serious health issues, and a few other things, it was no longer possible to keep the High Power Archery Operations going.  Between the podcast, coaching, and working on customer equipment, it became nearly impossible to dedicate the time necessary to keep it all going at the level which my students, listeners and customers deserved.

A few months later, and after talking with both my students and someone very close to me, I've decided to get things going again.  In this episode, I'm joined by Anthony, one half of the Off Center Archers.  Very few people knew what was going on in my life when i hung it all up, but it was through the support of people like Anthony that i was able to get things back together and make the changes necessary to put things back on track again.

In this episode, we go over what's happened, and what's changing.  More importantly we talk about what each of us is doing to get back to doing what we love.  We also have some laughs along the way.  Should be an interesting listen at the very least for the fans.

This is the first podcast in our third season.  it will be followed by uploads of our instructional videos to our YouTube Channel and muc more to come.  Its certainly good to be back!
