Book Description
Target Panic is not a disease, it is a hard wired self preservation system all of us have. Due to this reaction nearly every shooter will encounter a Target Panic associated issue at some point in their shooting career. However, with proper education on how we are wired, and instruction on how to approach the problem most shooters can remedy and improve their shooting dramatically. In the book we provide a detailed explanation of what Target Panic is, the mental and physical symptoms of what an archer might experience with Target Panic, and a step by step guide to implementing Joel Turner's Controlled Process Shooting system.

Pages : 189
Book Description
"Groundbreaking." ―Rachel Louise Snyder, bestselling author of No Visible Bruises An examination of the phenomenon of mass shootings in America and an urgent call to implement evidence-based strategies to stop these tragedies Winner of the 2022 Minnesota Book Award Using data from the writers’ groundbreaking research on mass shooters, including first-person accounts from the perpetrators themselves, The Violence Project charts new pathways to prevention and innovative ways to stop the social contagion of violence. Frustrated by reactionary policy conversations that never seemed to convert into meaningful action, special investigator and psychologist Jill Peterson and sociologist James Densley built The Violence Project, the first comprehensive database of mass shooters. Their goal was to establish the root causes of mass shootings and figure out how to stop them by examining hundreds of data points in the life histories of more than 170 mass shooters—from their childhood and adolescence to their mental health and motives. They’ve also interviewed the living perpetrators of mass shootings and people who knew them, shooting survivors, victims’ families, first responders, and leading experts to gain a comprehensive firsthand understanding of the real stories behind them, rather than the sensationalized media narratives that too often prevail. For the first time, instead of offering thoughts and prayers for the victims of these crimes, Peterson and Densley share their data-driven solutions for exactly what we must do, at the individual level, in our communities, and as a country, to put an end to these tragedies that have defined our modern era.

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
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.
