Marty,

I'm glad I can be of some help. Rick McKinney's book covers clicker set up as well. In fact if you read other articles on the same topic they will all sound similar. I included a lesson in my description however.

Sadly, I have relocated to Flagstaff and I am trying my hardest to return to So Cal! But it may be several months before I can manage that.

Up here there are few if any recurve shooters. I don't even think there is a range in this area. I'd have to travel to the Phoenix area to get to a decent range.

There are a few other articles worth checking out in this group, and there are additional  tips on clicker use, as well other topics. I support learning the clicker early rather than later, but read the tips I have given on the topic so your experience will be easier.

If you ever have any questions just drop me a line.

Oh and El Dorado is a great place to develop good archery contacts.

Good shooting,

-Dan

Dan,
Thank you for your response to my post on the Olympic Recurve Yahoo
site and for the invitation to join this site, also.
The photos and files contained here are the type of current
supplemental information I was seeking - for example, the article on
clicker positioning. When I bought my clicker, there were
instructions on how to bolt it on but not how to position it for
better shooting results! Thus the need for pertinent information.

On the Recurve site, I had already read your very helpful postings on
shooting, practicing and following-through. These were excellent.
You have a very clear, concise and thoughtful writing style. Your
communication skills must make you an effective coach, too.

I originally saw you listed in the NAA Directory as in Pomona, CA.
Have you recently relocated to Flagstaff, AZ?

Where do you coach and are you affiliated with any college teams?

I look forward to visiting this site often as I progress
from 'wannabe' to arrow-shagger to competent archer.

Best Wishes,

Marty DeWan
Torrance, CA
