Usually your scores go down temporarily when you incorporate something new into your shot sequence … but not in this case. Jamie Martin, is a 3-D shooter from Point Pleasant, NJ. A week after attending the shooter’s school, he competed in his first indoor tournament, the Atlantic City Archery Classic (2^nd biggest in the U.S.). After two days, he was in first place in the championship flight . . . until the last five arrows! Then, the pressure finally got to him and he shot three 9s and two 8s and finished second. That’s still not bad for your first time!

Billy had not shot his bow for over 2 years and he had never shot dots or leagues for score in his life. But, before ever picking up his bow, he watched the NFAA Shooter’s School Video series over and over again for a month, He borrowed some arrows and followed the shot sequence and aiming techniques that Bernie had on the videos. At the Indoor Nationals, he shot a perfect score of 600 with 120 Xs and ended up in a 4 way tie and shoot off for first place. Billy went on to win that shoot off! Altogether, he shot 156 Xs in a row for the weekend.
