    Welcome aboard...I'm fairly new here myself. I spent a great deal of time reading through old posts/topics and found a lot of great information. You might want to try that if you have the time. Good folks here..I think you'll enjoy it.

    check out the bow shops and ranges around you for an instructor that will give ya a couple of lessons.. learn proper form and release now before you develop bad habits.. then practice, practice, practice, practice practice practice... then practice some more....
