Reprogramming your shot execution and form with the Morin Trainer

The Morin Trainer is one of the coolest tools I have seen come along in a while. When I was working through my own target panic, I just used a simple piece of string. The string was great to work out the feel of the shot and memorize the action it took to make my release fire with the least amount of thought and hand action. However the string didn’t feel close enough to the bow for me to totally reprogram my style. I always had a pretty steep learning curve and break in time with the bow in order to transfer the feel.

The Morin Trainer is elastic and allows the shot to feel more dynamic. Within the elastic section there is a stop cord that limits the draw of the elastic. It feels just like a nice hard wall on the bow. The Trainer allows multiple repetitions in order to program, improve, and simplify your shot execution technique. It also allows shooters to maintain the muscular feel between the mental shot execution and the actual release of the shot.  It helps you activate and feel the proper muscle groups to get the most out of your shot.

Once you have the right shot feel and have settled on your style you can repeat, repeat, repeat. Professional musicians, Gymnasts, Golfers, any type of individual performance activity must have a firm and broad foundation of skill in order to be the most they can be. Repetition and the act of over-learning basic performance skills is the way Pros excel in archery. Archery is a single shot combined with the art of standing still, and being still. The Morin Trainer is a great tool to get started.

Here is an excerpt from my top selling DVD “Professional Form and Shot Execution Techniques”. It shows the Morin Trainer in action and gives some great tips on how to create and manage your own release aid technique.
