Inner Archery: Know How Good You Are...Believe You Are Good Enough

Inner Archery is designed to help archers have more fun shooting recreationally and competitively while learning efficient and effective training techniques to increase their skill level more quickly. This book isn’t only aimed at archers, but at their support groups including friends, family, and coaches. I don’t believe anyone can rise to the elite levels of any sport without supporters and coaches to help them. This book captures the essence of Inner Archery. It outlines methods and techniques that can be used by archers and their support groups to become more proficient at the archery game regardless of the level of participation. Inner Archery is a collection of techniques which, if used properly and together, can help archers be more successful and help the members of their support groups be more effective, efficient, and better able to communicate with the archer. Until now, the focus of training has been on the archer. It’s time to broaden that focus to include the archer’s support group. All support group members, including coaches and parents, should be better trained in methods that will benefit the archer and help them succeed more rapidly. Nothing can be more persuasive than actual accounts of athletes using a training technique that led to their success. Inner Archery includes stories about real people who experienced different challenges during their archery career and successfully worked through them by using Inner Archery techniques. Each person realized that concentrating on the process of shooting leads to improved performance and gets them closer to the desired outcome. There are also stories about beginning archers, parents, and coaches who were successful from the start because they began their archery careers using Inner Archery methods and continued to use and refine the techniques. “A good coach can change a game…a great coach can change a life.” One of my students gave me a coffee mug with that saying embossed on the side. Coaches are a necessary part of an athlete’s training. Some coaches may be certified as a coach, but some of the best coaches have never had formal coaching training. They are people who have studied the sport and/or elite athletes in the sport who have developed a formula for success. The coach-athlete-support group relationship is complicated. All parties need to work together so that the archer can be successful. A great archery coach will change the archer’s life for the better and will be remembered as someone who was technically and tactically proficient, while teaching life lessons of perseverance, self-motivation and self-discipline. There is a saying, “If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.” To succeed in life, sport, and business, you need three people with whom you partner to form a team. Each person serves a vital function in your life, and without any one of them, you won’t succeed. You may do ok and get acceptable returns on your effort, but you won’t be able to maximize your efforts to make it to the podium in sport, succeed in business, and have fulfillment in your life. The struggle is real. You need a team’s help to cross the finish line first. Success is determined by the people with whom you surround yourself. You need a team of people to help you be a winner. Select these people carefully by following the recommendations found in Inner Archery. Once you find the right people for your team, the road to success will be much smoother. Whether you are an archer or a support group member, Inner Archery is for you. People outside the sport of archery can also benefit from reading this book because it centers around the mental process and the importance of the athlete's support group. My hope is that everyone who reads Inner Archery will find some information, technique, or advice that will help them define their goals and expectations for the sport of archery and become better at their game.
