In every issue of Stick and String Traditional Archery Magazine we have a definition, something for the new archer.
issue 1 we had : Arrow Length
issue 2 we had: Right hand vs Left hand arrow rest
What do you guys suggest for our next issue?
Over Bowed
Arrow spine/bareshaft tuning/paper tuning
Gap shooting
Back tension
Anchor point
Maximum hunting shot distance
You'd get some great ideas by looking in Howard Hill's "Hunting the Hard Way" for the things that Howard clarified for his readers long ago.

And over bowed is when you have ssooo many bows your significant other threatens to leave you or makes you sleep on the couch... right?

Oh... and my wife and I have different definitions of these three:
expensive
cheap
bargain
This one was a bear for me to understand.
Subconcious release
Subconscious -- a conscious action practiced and perfected to the point that you perform it on auto-pilot while focused on something else entirely.
Of course a big-ole white-tail buck, screaming bull, strutting turkey has the uncanny ability to short-circuit well-tuned subconscious actions and send any one of us back to square one!
This is the goal for nearly every step in the shooting process.
Oh, another definition needed: Legend
Reflex/Deflex
Deflex/Reflex
Static tips
"Hill" style
String Follow

American Semi-Longbow
Horsebow

etc...
It always surprises me how many guys that are ordering arrows from me don't know what "bop" is or how to measure it. I just remind myself that we all have to start somewhere.
Bud, I got it all except VON ? :dunno:
