Rod Jenkins to South Florida, Oct 23-24, 2010
« on: March 27, 2010, 09:13:00 PM »
This  clinic is ON!
I've got a few more slots for those stragglers but this clinic is going to happen.

Rod was the 2004 IBO world Champion in the traditional class and one of the stars in Masters of the Barebow 3. Rod will bring his no-nonsense approach to shot execution and control with the traditional longbow and recurve. Topics to be covered in the 2 day clinic are;

1 Introduction of 7 steps to excellence program

2 Individual shot analysis and correction

3 Formaster training

4 Practice drills to reinforce the 7 steps

5 Strengthening the mental game

6 Aiming methods discussion

7 Question and answer session

The date will be Oct. 23-24 2010
Looking to hold this clinic on my property in Venus Fl. Venus is in the middle of no where, which puts it in the middle of everything. Its about an hour and a half from both coasts,depending on where you are coming from.30 miles south of Sebring.
If folks are coming in from afar the closest airport would be Fort Myers. Second closest would be Tampa.
Lots of other things to do in the area as well. Fisheating creek offers great canoeing and camping. Lots of places offering outfitted hog hunting. Lake Okechobbee is less than an hour away if big bass is your thing.
Plenty of room on the property for camping.Big oak hammock. Fire pit available. Can probably even get smaller RV's in there but don't have any way to get power to them. Would have to be generator.

Theres also several motels just up the road in Lake Placid.I can provide their info if needed.

We will be having a wild game feast Saturday night as well. Wild hog, Venison,Gator tail. I'm hearing some rumblings about some famous apple cobbler as well!   :D  

The cost is $225 per person and we would need a minimum of 10 people. Max of 12.

Thanks!
Brad

I am to the South of you. My interest is percked but my wallet is flinching. I have never heard of Ron Jenkins. I have also never been instructed on the proper way to shoot. Who knows I could be doing it all wrong for all these years.

Bump this up here in case any of the Ga. folks want to head south this fall. :-) I've still got a few openings.

Rod isn't just an outstanding archer, he's also an outstanding coach.  No mistique or magic--he's to the point and doesn't have any secrets.  

Don't think he's just a preppy target archer either (once you see him that image will vanish--lol)--he's also an avid hunter with gobs of kills under his belt.

Don't think for a second his method won't work on moving targets either--he can knock out "bow birds" with the best.

If you do what Rod teaches, he will help your shooting.
His guidance has helped me a ton.

We just had Rod up here in Hood River and I must say it was the best 2 days spent with a bow.  I really think that  my shooting will improve at least by a 100 percent.  

I hope you can find enough folks for to get him down there.

best of luck

Back up top! Still need to have a couple more to make this happen.

I'll be sending PMs in the next couple of days to everybody that has said they would be there to verify that they still will be.

Just do it, you won't regret it!

I took his clinic at 3rivers two weeks ago and I am so glad I did. Today was day 11 of my 21 day drill prgram. It was incredibly helpful to have him in person to show me what I saw on Barebow III, but couldn't really understand conpletely from a video.

He is one of the few guys who can teach and do!

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Just finished Rod's first clinic over here in Australia. Was awesome and really helped me out. A must do I reckon.

Rod's class was awesome, did it with 3 friends which was a big help to compare notes later. We are all much better shots now. I also learned a lot just getting to visit with Rod about equipment and other issues, he is a wealth of information.
