Download or read book Robert Churchill s Game Shooting written by MacDonald Hastings and published by Stackpole Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the standard textbook on its subject has been revised by Robert Churchill’s biographer. Macdonald Hastings, himself well-known in the shooting field (and other fields as well), has incorporated comments on matters which, since Churchill’s Game Shooting as first published in 1955, required further enlargement or modification. He has also brought the entire work completely up-to-date. Macdonald Hastings, who collaborated with the author in the writing of the original edition, was Robert Churchill’s own choice to revise the text and this new edition of Churchill’s drill book, as the great gunmaker and coach himself liked to describe it, may be regarded as contemporarily definitive. None who read the first edition will want to miss this second one, in which every point of controversy and prejudice has been underlined with an editorial note to assist the shooting man in improving his own performance. To those who are still unfamiliar with Churchill’s method of teaching game-shooting, it is important to add that this books is aimed to help not merely the experienced shot who wonders why he is missing, but also the novice handling a gun for the first time. It contains complete and always practical advice on all forms of shot-gun work for everybody. Those who make good use of this manual will not only be welcome guests in any company but quickly pay the cost of the book out of the saving they make on wasted cartridges.

Download or read book The ART of BAREBOW Shooting written by Martin L Godio and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many books about shooting Compound and Recurve bows but no book deals with the specific problems of the BAREBOW archer, as this book does. It presents a systematic, biomechanically efficient BAREBOW technique. A starting point to help you decide how you shoot and settle on your own shooting style, it will still serve as your guide for many years of competitive and enjoyable archery. Archery is a performance sport, no matter how good your aim if you fail in the shot execution, you miss. The shooting process is what makes you accurate and a biomechanically efficient BAREBOW technique will make this easier. The techniques described in this book are relevant to any barebow or traditional archer, not just Stringwalkers. Correct use of muscles, joints, and bones is needed to ensure energy is not wasted. This requires good alignment, proper use of archer's back muscles, and the transfer of the archer's effort into the back before allowing expansion to happen naturally. This book explains how to achieve this and details training methods and tools, including some notes for those participating in 3D and Field Archery.Target Panic is the most overlooked problem of BAREBOW archery. It is vital to know how to prevent it. The essential mental control is integrated throughout the description of the shooting process. Once you already have it, you have only two options: to conquer it or to suffer from it for the rest of your archery life. Consequently, Target Panic is addressed in depth. The module devoted to the mental side of BAREBOW archery includes an explanation of Target Panic and presents methods to reassert control and overcome it. The mental systems used to learn how to prepare yourself for competition and then perform under pressure are also explained.NOTE: This book does not set out to teach the very basics of how to shoot a bow. It is advisable to learn the early steps of shooting a bow under the supervision of a competent coach.
