When learning to shoot archery, it seemed advice came at me from every angle.  I would smile and nod with understanding, though it wouldn't be long before I knew if the advice given would work for me or not.  With previous sports and hobbies I took pride in being "coachable".  Archery is different.  Archery is a sport that you feel as much as you physically do.  Every archer must find what segments make their perfect shot and practice for consistency.  Of the advice given to me, I have spent the most time focusing on one aspect, which is breathing.   I can practice this through visualization or with an actual arrow knocked. From the time I first draw the arrow back until after its release, there is purpose and timing for each breath.  Though there are many vital aspects of my archery technique, and of my daily living, I must not take for granted the moments meant for a purposeful breath.
