Discover Archery

After 10 days of learning the basics of archery, six out of nine students in the class decided to continue to the advanced lessons, which will last for another 10 sessions (yehey!). These are the remaining students:

1. Arkon
2. Chean
3. Dani
4. Jill
5. John
6. Katria

We have 2 new classmates (sorry, I don't know they're names yet). One of the new students even has his own bow and arrows (ang dami kasi niyang arrow). Coach Bert said that it's a hunting bow (sosyal nga eh, kasi naka compound bow pa sya!) But, as John & I said, "Balang araw magkakaroon din tayo ng bow!" hehe...

Anyway, Coach Vince was the one teaching our new classmates, while the remaining 6 of us (ang mga "LUMA" as Coach Vince would say) were taught by Coach Bert.

Our lesson today focused generally on the way we grip the bow. I read on one book that the proper way to grip the bow was not to grip at all! hehe.. that's what Coach Bert also taught us. Kaya pala parang nababali yung mga wrist ng ibang archers pag release... natural lang pala yun. Saka ngayun ko lang nalaman na may tali pala sila sa kamay kaya hindi nalalaglag yung bow! Hindi kasi halata...

Hopefully, we can get to shoot with Trixy, Ervin, & Marevick again (para masaya!)

See you all on Monday! =P
