I've been shooting a hair over 8 months now and am progressing well, but I've been struggling with a few things of late. Bow shoulder and draw elbow have been feeling off, and most of my strays go to the left (right handed archer). I get good advice, but lack understanding.
Your explanation from 21:00 linked the elbow and stray issues together beautifully.
The more I understand the sport, the easier (conceptually) it seems to me. This video should put an extra 10 points on my PB. :)
@thirteenfingers I am happy to hear this helped! The difficult part of these concepts is that it takes a lot of flexibility and strength to contort yourself properly to achieve good alignment. 99% of archers are NOT in as good of alignment as they should be and they are limited by their lack of flexibility!
Epiphany!

This was filmed in late 2007. Sorry for the long time to upload! I re-found it on my computer and thought it would be worth sharing!
