MBB4 is now available at 3Rivers Archery, Black Widow Custom Bows and Lost Nation Archery.

I picked up some really good stuff from this vol. Jay helped me better understand the way my brain works and his "button" section has changed the way I aim. I did some research after we videoed this technique and was suprised that many top barebow archers incorporated something similar in their shot.

Joel's mantra and psycho trigger has helped me take the shot I built on the bale and execute better when the stress turns up.

Rod's change in the shot sequence helped me cross another hurdle on the path to becoming a better shot. His shot analysis part was inspiring. This was the first time he wasn't going in for shoulder surgery following the filming. It was nice to see Rod shooting pain free. My shot needed some real cleaning up and I can see a big improvement since we videoed the segment last year.

Hopefully there will be something for everyone in Vol. 4 and you will find it entertaining.

This is the final volume of the MBB series and we want to thank the sponsors, shooters and the folks who bought a copy for all of your support. It has been a lot of fun and we sure appreciate it.

Now that is exciting news! I will watch for it at Cloverdale. Sorry to hear it's the last one, but glad Denny's shooting finally improved.

Received my copy from Lost Nation Wednesday. Will finally have a chance to view it this evening. Sounds as though it will help with the mental aspects which have been trying me lately. Never had these problems before, may be due to on set of old age(LOL),hope this helps with a cure. If not at least my MBB collection is complete.
Hope what I learn helps with the 3D shoot I'm attending tomorrow.

I've had my copy for about a week now. Its different than the other three series for sure.
Its alot on the mental side of shooting and also some definate tips for target panic.But it adds another element to becoming a better shooter. I think its money well spent and definetly picked up a couple things already from watching it.I got alot out of watching Joel Turners part of the video. And after you see how Rod Jenkins picks things out on watching a video of someone shoot it realy makes me want to take one of his shooting classes.

Might be a silly questions, but do you need to watch these volumes in order? or can I just pick one up watch it, and go on to the next regardless of what volume

Just sent you a PM, TxAg, and no, you don't need to watch them in order.

If you seriously want to help your shooting then order #3 and while your at it pick up #4 as well and you will be well on your way to shooting better.

Doug in MI,

I attended Rod's class a couple weeks ago. The best money I have spent on my hunting ever!

I bought it with my Bohning refill today so I'll let you guys know how I like it. Volume 3 is easily the best video instruction available, with Rod Jenkins' segment being especially valuable. When I put his lessons into practice it helped my shooting immensely.

Post by: mcgroundstalker on May 17, 2011, 05:52:00 PM
Didn't get mine yet but can tell ya this... The first three were great! Looking forward to this new one. Jay Kidwell is right on the mark when it comes to the mental part of archery. And then you have Denny... Brings back good memories about when I first got into this Trad Stuff.

We are all going to form our own style in shooting. Learning the basics from others at the start is the way to go. DVD's are kinda like a one-on-one cyber camp. You that are new to this should watch these videos and read all the books ya can. It helps a lot!

Watched part of it, so far the section by Joel Turner was the most direct and absolute finest explanation into curing Target Panic. would highly recommend this DVD just for that.

Post by: Ed Q on May 18, 2011, 03:16:00 PM
Just finished watching Dr. Kidwell's and Joel Turner's segments.  So far the DVD has been awesome.  I've read Dr. Kidwell's book, which is great by the way, and he talks about the main points in his book and even demonstrates one of the target-panic-prevention drills in the vid.  Joel Turner's explanation on target panic is also great.  Can't wait to see the rest of it.

Denny dropped off a case of them for me to sell.  Had a few go out the door already.

Just got mine. I really like the Joel Turner segment. I think this is the best in the series so far. I will have to watch Dr. Kidwell next. Very informative.

Jay Kidwell's book "Instinctive Archery Insights" had a tremendous impact on my shooting when I first read it years ago. We have MBB volumes 1-3 and will be acquiring the final DVD soon.

Thanks for the reviews!

I got my copy today and watched the first two segments.  It's heavy so far on the mental approach but leave it to a psychologist to love that!  I would recommend it so far.

Great series. Really highlights the many different forms of shooting. I have all 3 and will purchase #4. Have shot Archery all my life and many different styles with off and on TP. I don't give up and these dvd's really increase your awareness of issues impacting your shooting.

Watched MBB-4 for the first time last night.  It will definitely take me a few more viewings before I absorb most of the material; it definitely gives you a lot to think about.

As each new volume of the MBB series came out, I wondered what they would come up with to keep from repeating themselves and getting stale.  I have never been disappointed.  MBB-4 is different from all the others, as it focuses mostly on the mental aspects of shooting the bow.

I'm sure they didn't plan it this way, but MBB-4 is a natural conclusion to the series, as you first have to learn to shoot the bow before before you can develop the mental blocks that keep you from shooting it as well as you should be able to shoot it.

As with the others in the series, MBB-4 is well produced and kept my interest high throughout.

The interesting thing to me is the different things I've picked up since Denny and Daryl did the first one.  When MBB 1 came out I was primarily shooing my selfbows and just hunting.  What I enjoyed then vs. what I go back and pay attention to now has changed significantly.  This is a testament to the diversity in style and approach that they have given us.  The series speaks to the whole of traditional archery whether you are a FITA Field barebow shooter or a selfbow squirrel hunter.  MBB has made a quantifiable difference in my shooting and I'm convinced can do that same with any other shooter who is open to experiment and tinker with different approaches.   A timeless series that will never lose its relevance.

Ranger B, well said, I couldn't agree more. I was amazed at the Joel Turner segment.  He presents a completely different way of using your consious and un-consious mind during the shot.  This is good stuff, thanks to Denny and Daryl for putting this series together. It may never be equaled.  RW

Thank you all, for your kind words about MBB 4 and the whole MBB series.  Your positive feedback makes it all worthwhile.  

Ranger B - Your post makes me feel good.  Thank you for that.  As far as "a timeless series that will never lose its relevance".  We do hope that the MBB series will be around for awhile to help archers learn, understand and enjoy the sport to the fullest.

Thanks again everyone,  Darryl
