Teaching Archery To Kids Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As one who has taught archery to children for eight or nine years in various scenarios from summer camps to monthly meetings, to family members ranging in age from 6 yrs to adults, I had certain preconceptions about this book when it was given to me. The book was written in part for those who have never picked up a bow before. This book provides a pretty good basis for this, however, many things such as anchor point seem too "glossed over" for one unfamiliar with shooting form. More instruction or at least familiarity would be necessary for a novice to be competent to coach an archery program. I did enjoy how the book placed more focus on teaching than adult self instruction as is the focus of most of the literature.
I must say that there were a few things in the book that I had never read or thought of before. Even an old dog can pick up a thing or two now and then. One sometimes gets bogged down into one method after a while, and it takes something to shake it up a bit to open the eyes again. This book can do that.
The information is not new, nor is it groundbreaking, but it is put into a concise, fairly clear form, and is written in a manner that is pleasing to read. The book would not stand completely on it's own, but anyone teaching an archery program, no matter haw long they have been in the game, would benefit from reading this book.
