In a recent thread, a guy was wanting to know how to help his friend who, it sounds to me, is shoooting better than most people I know, change his shooting form right before the coming season. I responded with this post below, and I just wanted to share it with everyone, and not have it burried where few will see it. As you can see from what I wrote, changing, in my eyes, is not worth it.
If it's working, why mess with it?
The best case scernario I would call it Archery Stimulus Program. He can take what is working just fine, and then come in decide that it can be done better, and change it all to better fill his needs, the whole time telling himself change is a great thing, and is going to be good for him, and once everyone else catches onto this Archery Stimulus Program it will make better shooters out of everyone. But this is only going to be achieved by those who are shooting scores of 250 or better, and will not affect the guys who are shooting less than 250 scores, but they will benefit from it just the same and before you know it, everyone will be using the Archery Stimulus Program, well except for me. I am the one who dreamed up the Archery Stimulus Program, and although I'm shooting 250, or higher score, I'm going to exempt myself from the Archery Stimulus Program for the simple fact that although you hope changing will work for improvement, I know changing anything that is working will only ruin everything you are doing.
Man, for some reason this seems familiar. I just can't seem to think of where I have heard this before. Might someone be able to help this old brain remember where this also has been used, and never worked?
