I will teach you how to properly load an arrow on to the bow form, anchor point, release, follow threw and target panic.

For compound bow Wrist Sling or Finger Thumb release. I combine my fitness background into this and I am able to meet or go to a archery outdoor Trail course for a nice hike and endurance in beautiful Pacifica or Skyline on top of 92, theres othera in the bay area as well.
