Customer Reviews
A good reference ...but - Rated Another US book aimed mainly at recurve and compound bow users. (I'm more interested in longbows). There are some excellent explanations as to how some methods are better than others but the explanations are uneven- some easy to follow - some need a diagram which is sometimes forthcoming in a different part of the book. Many of the points are made over and over again so it can appear a little too wordy and repetitive. It needs a good editor to whittle away some of the chaff and a bullet-pointed summary at the end of each chapter would be useful. This has the makings of a good book; a pity at times I was only reading the second draft. Nevertheless I would recommend it to intermediate recurve and compound archers. A Wonderful Reference - Rated Precision Archery is a great grab-bag of hints and tips for the intermediate level archer. It is a distilation of the wisdom contained within Archery Focus Magazine. There are 14 chapters which cover numerous different aspects of the sport from advanced recurve form to the best way to test new equipment. It tries to provide a good balance between recurve and compound shooting, and on the whole it does maintain that balance. Some of the chapters may not be totally applicable to you, if for instance you shoot recurve you may not wish to read about tuning compounds - however don't be so sure for that particular chapter had one of the clearest explainations of how fletchings work that I have ever encountered. Every intermediate archery should either buy this book or should pester their club into buying it for them.
