The new bow's ordered! But, it's not likely to arrive before the new year (6-12 weeks iirc) so, I have a little time to train
I'm going from 50lb (compound, unsure of let-off but it's pretty high) to 70lb 85%.
Obviously, Shooting the bow I have as much as possible will help significantly but I don't get to go all that much. So, I'm looking for alternatives. My best ideas so far are pressups and to cobble something together from a resistance band to imitate drawing a bow - a grip to hold in my bow hand and a powerful elastic with some sort of handle instead of a release
Do any of you have any other ideas or wisdom on the matter please? I've done well getting my draw/form reasonable (as far as I can tell) but I'm very short of people to ask - the "club" I'm in is simply a handful of guys at the gun club who dabble. So, effectively, I'm self-taught other than a year or so in an archery club ~ 28 years ago
I'll also be looking at a few coaching sessions, covid permitting, probably after Christmas now though. I'm not really interested in shooting competitively - but its always good to see an improvement
