I just had caller number 95 call me from the other end of the country!!!! Keep the calls coming folks, we will beat target panic together.
For those of you in the Michigan area, I will be running a Target Panic and Shot Control Clinic in Marne MI on Sunday May 5th at the A&H Archery Shop. It is limited to 10 people and it is only a one day course. I will also be filming a Target Panic and Shot Control DVD the same weekend. The DVD will be available through A&H Archery probably sometime in June or July. I will keep everyone posted!!!!
With so many people calling me, I have formulated a list of questions that have been consistent will most if not all of the callers. I am hoping to answer all of these questions in the DVD. The clinic and the dvd will cover:
* Target Panic causes and myths
* Thought Analysis during the shot
* Subconscious Aiming (What it really means to pick a spot)
* Shot Separation (The 2 jobs in a shot)
* Concentration shifting
* The use of Neurolinguistic Programming
* The use of Psychological Triggers
* Concentration Practice
* Complete knowledge of the Mental Mechanics
* How to achieve shot control under stress
* The skills of diagnosis and treatment of any mental shooting problems that may arise
* Bow tuning (Shelf or elevated rest)
* Broadhead tuning and the Single Bevel Advantage
Keep the calls coming so I can answer as many questions as possible in the clinic and dvd. I have learned so much about teaching this subject since Masters of the Barebow 4 that I wanted to do another dvd to really drive the message home regarding how to beat target panic. Larry at A&H Archery has been fantastic in making this happen, so to him and to all of you, I am eternally grateful.
Talk to you soon,

I wish it was closer Joel, cannot wait to see the DVD.
-
I would love to attend one of your clinics if you get some where close to Colorado.
Count me in on the DVD.
Thanks for all of your help.

Hey Joel sent you a PM

Bowitis,
I am in Dolores CO at least once a year, I will definitely be doing a clinic there in the future. Either in Dolores or Bayfield. I am really excited about these clinics, they will give you a definite plan on how to shoot the perfect arrow under stress!!!!
-
The cost of the one day clinic is $100. I normally would run a two day clinic, but I am filming an elk calling dvd on Saturday May 4th, doing the clinic on Sunday May 5th, and then filming the Target Panic and Shot Control DVD on Monday May 6th. Pretty tight schedule while I am in MI!!!!
-
Looking forward to the DVD! Any plans on coming to TX for a class?
-
This info looks good and I will look into the DVD.
Anyone have any feedback on the Byron Ferguson Archery School at Goodman Ranch in TN?
Thought about going but little expensive just wondered if anyone had been?
-
How can I reserve a spot? Should I send you a check?
-
Brad,
I sent you a pm. I think I have 5 spots left, but you will have to call Larry Hanify at A&H Archery to reserve a spot. Looking forward to seeing you there!!!
Thanks,
JT

I would like to hear what you suggest for shot control under stress. I guess it may be time for me to give you another call.
-
Greg,
Give me a call if you will. Stress simply makes us think of different things at the moment of truth. When you master the mental mechanics, you will have the ability to put your mind where it needs to be to execute a perfect shot, no matter what the stress level. We see the effects of stress when people shoot in front of groups or at animals. The physical action of shooting the bow is no different, but where the shooters mind has gone is a mental mess. Knowing what to concentrate on and, more importantly, how to concentrate are the keys to cleaning up the mental mess and shooting with a solid plan of how you are going to shoot that perfect arrow.

Joel,
Don't suppose there are any plans on coming to Southern California with one of your clinics? Will you let us know when your DVD is available?
-
Scott,
I will travel to where ever a clinic can be formed. I only need about 10 people to get together and a range to shoot. Thanks for the kind words in the other thread. Give me a call if you have any questions. 253-686-3623

I attended Joel's clinic yesterday at A&H Archery and for anyone that does not feel they have 100% control of every shot they make I highly recommend his class. Two types of stress that have caused me to lose control of the shot are shooting in front of other people and long distance. At the end of the day I stood at 48 yards with a dozen people watching and Joel ribbing me about a $5 bet on the shot and shot an arrow with complete control. My hit was about a foot low on the 3d elk but my concentration was strong and in the right place. I didn't have a 5 on me at the time so Joel just let me know where to send the check and a big thanks for sharing this mental control system!! Also, thanks to Larry at A&H for providing the venue for this class! I'd like to be on the list for the DVD when available.

Thanks for the quick report on the clinic, and glad to hear about your stress management! Hopefully Joel will make a slide through Texas as the phone call I had with him last week has worked wonders....things can only get better.

I too attended Joel's class. Everyone there seemed to have they're own Gremlin attacking them in one way or another (myself included of course). Joel is a great teacher with a teacher's heart, he was able to diagnose everybodys issue and work on it with us. I know for myself, and like Flingblade has already posted, I left there a changed Archer, with a plan and control of my shot. KEEP PULLIN KEEP PULLIN KEEP PULLIN......
Thanks again Joel... Bosch

I am really glad that everyone that is attending his class is getting good results. I was caller 94 and asked him a bunch of questions. He talked with me on the phone for an hour, and I can tell you that it has been the single most important hour for teaching me in my very short traditional archery career so far. I am really happy with the outcome and can't thank him enough!
Thanks again Joel :thumbsup:

I had a chance to try his method out on live critters this past weekend. I was carp shooting and put a clicker on my bow. I had very good hit to miss ratio. I missed a few opportunities because I couldn't get through the click before the fish spooked, but I was very happy to not be snap shooting. I can't wait to get a chance of a big critter.

Joel do/will you ever come to new england?
-
Everyone,
I am willing to travel anywhere to perform these shooting clinics. The results have been fantastic and people are leaving the clinic with a clear path to be self sufficient in the diagnosis and treatment of any mental shooting issues. People are being introduced to complete shot control under stress. I would like to have a minimum of 9 and a max of 12 shooters per clinic. It is a one day clinic but can be made into two if the shooters want more stress training. I charge $150 per day to cover travel expenses, etc.. If anyone needs more info feel free to call. 253-686-3623
Thanks,
JT

Joel, let me know if you make it to TN...

DVD update?

The dvd has been edited and is ready to be produced. We just have to get it to the folks that make the dvds. I dont think that will take too long. Please watch for it on the A&H Archery Website.
Thanks,
JT
