PART 01

Archery

Consistency beats strength. Master the kit, the body, and the eye — then teach it.

Anatomy of the bow tap to learn

Tap any numbered point on the bow — or the list — to learn the part and its job.

Tap a part to begin
Every number is a component you must be able to name and explain.

Anatomy of the arrow tap to learn

Front to back — and don't miss the spine note, the question that separates amateurs from instructors.

Tap a part to begin
Point, insert, shaft, crest, fletching, nock — plus the concept of spine.

Find your eye do it now

The single most-skipped beginner step. Test every shooter before you hand them a bow — it decides which way they stand.

THE MILES TEST · STEP 1 / 3

Extend both arms and overlap your hands to make a small triangle. Keep both eyes open.

RESULT HELPER — WHICH HAND DO YOU SHOOT?

The shot cycle step through

Eleven steps to one repeatable shot. Step through and watch which part of the body works.

STEP 01 / 11

Stance

🎯 The two cues that fix most beginners: "relax the bow hand" and "pull with your back, finish with your back."

Whistle commands tap a card

The reflexes you install in every group in 60 seconds. Tap to reveal what to call.

🛑 On four or more blasts, the only correct response is instant: stop, arrows down. Drill it once with every group.
PART 02

Tomahawk

One principle sticks more axes than strength ever will: distance controls rotation, not your wrist.

Anatomy of the axe tap to learn

Head and haft. Tap each point — and check the head is tight every single session.

Tap a part to begin
Bit, toe, heel, cheek, beard, eye, poll, haft, throat, knob.

Rotation tuner drag the slider

Drag to change your distance from the board and watch the axe rotate. Find the distance where it sticks.

9.0 ft

🪓 Hits handle-first = over-rotated, step forward. Top-edge bounce = under-rotated, step back. Firm wrist — let the steps do the spinning.
