Welcome to Episode 68 where I am truly blessed to be joined by Joel Turner of Shot IQ. Joel is a former SWAT team member and sniper who was aso a lead firearms instructor and a  a two-time RMEF World Elk Calling Champion in the Professional Division, who developed Controlled Process Shooting, a system that addresses the mental side of archery and shot anticipation (or the dreaded target panic). In 2023, Joel's son, Bodie, smashed his way onto the world stage by winning The Vegas Shoot in the Championship Male category at just 15 years old. After my nerves settled, we discuss Joel's system, non-hunting societies and the joys of silence in a conversation that lasted just over 2 hours. Joel can be found on the links below. https://www.shotiq.com/home [https://www.shotiq.com/home] https://www.turnermodel.com/mindiq [https://www.turnermodel.com/mindiq] https://www.instagram.com/joelturneractual/ [https://www.instagram.com/joelturneractual/] https://www.youtube.com/c/SHOTIQ [https://www.youtube.com/c/SHOTIQ] https://www.facebook.com/joelshotIQ/?locale=en_GB [https://www.facebook.com/joelshotIQ/?locale=en_GB]

In Episode 67 I was honoured to be joined by relative newcocomer to archery, Maddie Hammond. Maddie is a personal trainer from London who is relatively new to archery, onlhy taking the sport up after lockdown but in those intervening 3 and a half years, Maddie has achieved so much, immersing herself in the trad life and gaining an incredible knowledge of both bow and arrow tuning and mastering not only the physical side of shooting a bow, but also the mental mastery of controlled process shooting. In a conversation that lasted over 4 hours we discussed everything from archery to hiking, nightclubs, a little politics, differing customer service levels in the archery world between the USA and the UK, her shooting with Joel Turner of Shot IQ & meeting Tom Clum Sr. on her recent trip to shoot the Eastern Traditional Archery Rendezvous (ETAR) in the States, aswell as her appearance as a guest on Episode 288 of The Push Traditional Archrey Podcast (one of the archery world's biggest podcasts.  Maddie On Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/maddie_mads_/ Maddie On YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@SheShootsTrad

Welcome to Episode 66. In episode 65 I said that I wanted to sit down and talk to Ian Cope. Andy Williamd and Karl Bowles, Ian made it happen and I took the podcadt on a road trip to Bedford where I got to have a conversation with the 3 of them about practicing for improvement, injuries and the vanes which Karl produces  along with lots of juvenile humour. I have to say a huge thank you to Ian for making it happen and to his wife Sarah (herself an accomplished archer) for allowing us to record in their lovely home.
