You are a good dude Arwin...and because you are a good dude, your boy will easily follow in your footsteps.

Good job, because we can never have enough good dudes!!!

Very nice video. I like your comments about not pushing kids too much and just letting them have fun.

I took a kid just a couple nights ago and got really worried when he couldn't hit the bale at 20 feet. Discovered he was closing his dominant eye. When he had trouble remembering to leave both eyes open, he said, "I know," and pulled his stocking cap down over his non-dominant eye. It worked!

I had to laugh!

Thanks Raghorns! It is a common mistake some parents can make because we are so excited to see our kids improve.  I like to gently nudge kids while teaching, maybe help with form a little, but mostly I let them evolve on their own. I want them to shoot how "they shoot" not like how I shoot. It seems individual style is ever so much more present in traditional archery, no two people shoot the same.
I like the stocking story! I saw a kid put painters tape over one eye on his glasses because of the same thing.    :D
