Well It is sunny and cool outside so I decided to go out and do some training for some up and coming archery events. What does it take? Well, I will be the first to tell you it takes a lot of dedication and a lot of practice. Don't worry, it will all pay off in the long run. Sometimes I ask myself , "why do I love the sport of Archery?" First and foremost it is because of my love for the outdoors. I have learned that there is a lot of mental preparation that goes in to shooting at the competitive level. To me, being outside under the clear blue skies and shooting my bow is one of the best forms of meditation in the world; Just you, your bow, and the arrows. Mental preparation is the best tool you have and over the next few months I will try to help you understand the importance of this.
But for now back to the practice range I go. We will talk again soon.

Hello everyone,
Well I am back. The first time the we talked we had a little time to talk about the Mental game involved and what it takes to be competitive or to shoot at the competitive level. Well I have been using what you may call Positive Reinforcement that works for me and I hope it may help you as well. I always approach any giving situation with a positive attitude and always reinforce myself that I am going to do the very best I can every time that I am training for a event and as well in life . The more we talk about,and write about something happening, we really improve the probability of that situation really happening. So all I would recommend is to be careful on what we think or picture in our minds for that is what will probably happen. Just a small situation that has probably happened over a hundred time or more and that is when two competitors and having a conversation and one tell the other all the things that went wrong through out the competition. You must remind yourself to be strong and over come the negative thoughts and think of all the positive that happened instead. This will approve your ability to be positive and to reinforce positive outcome. Well for me it is back to the range for know and we will talk again later.

Wow it's been a crazy couple of months. I had only been back from Junior Dream Team camp in Colorado Springs for a couple of weeks when I found out I had received an invitation to the March camp in Chula Vista. So, the training continued! I usually shoot every day but shooting close to 200 arrows a day takes up some time. With all the trips and competions on the schedule, I officially became a home school student for the remaining two months of school. Camp in Chula Vista was amazing. It is a beautiful place! I did, despite using a ton of sunscreen, still managed to get a sunburn. That was my least favorite part. Camp in Chula Vista was amazing. It is a beautiful place!

There are all kinds of hazards that you don't expect to have to worry about when you are shooting. |

My Qualifier round in Arizona was awesome. I beat a couple of JDT red team members and several boys as well. That made me feel that I am on the right track with my training decisions. My OR didn't go as well as I would have liked but I learned a lot from the experience. This coming weekend I am shooting the First Dakota and then the next week we are in College Station for the Texas Shootout. I hope to see you guys there! |

| Bonjour je viens de recevoir ma nouvelle housse Legend Archery Double Two. J'utilisais auparavant la housse Tokyo toujours de chez Legend Archery. Le niveau de finition de la Double Two est toujours très bon. L'espace intérieur est énorme j'arrive à stocker 2 arcs avec tout les équipements. La qualité est vraiment au rendez vous. Concernant l'usure si elle tient aussi bien que la Tokyo ça sera génial en effet j'ai utilisé la Tokyo pendant 2 ans et elle n'a pas bougé contrairement à certaines housse de marques concurrentes... |  |

| Hey guys! I am headed to Colorado Springs this weekend for Junior Dream Team Camp and I wanted to take a moment to do a review of the awesome backpack from Legend. I could not believe how much fits in such a small space and how easy it was for me to carry. |

It has been a while since I have made a post. Figured I'd make one before the Holidays!
First, I hope everyone has a great Holiday Season! Enjoy your time and have fun!
I've been training hard, have a reasonable indoor setup going as well. Hope that I can keep getting quality shooting sessions in to prepare for Las Vegas in February!
Legend has provided me a great opportunity and are a fantastic company. I feel honoured to be a member of their staff. However, I wouldn't have been given this opportunity without hard-work and that I why I am going to share some advice to you all.
I think the most dangerous word in the English language is "should". "Should I have done this, or I should have done that" for example. Should implies responsibility. It connotes demand. Which is just not the case. Life ebbs and flows. I still spend time in life fighting the word. I can't always forget it. In the past, there was definitely times I would be wondering what I "should" do. Even now, I still ask, "should I" etc. But the most dangerous use of that word is when you ask yourself, "should I have done this....?". That is why within the past year or two my diet, exercise and overall outlook on life changed. So I don't have to ask myself that question. If you want to commit to becoming elite you need to make sure you finish everyday and every training session with confidence that you did everything you could to better yourself. If you ever leave yourself wondering, "should I have done this" then you didn't do enough. Never dwell on a decision you made in the past. "Yesterday's gone; today is better". That expression can be amended and applied to your training and competition. You have a bad shot, "that shot is gone; the next one will be better".
Therefore, with the New Year upon us, make yourself a resolution to fully commit to your training and leave each session with confidence that you gave it your all. No more "should I have done this" nonsense. Whatever you did in the past is gone, your future is going to be better!
All the best!

Well after a great Holiday with the family It is time to go to work and get ready for the indoor season,yes I know hunting season is still in but we can not hunt here in Va on Sunday so off to the range. I will have my shooting partner with me and I better look out she is shooting really well. Megan started shooting a few years back then she started college and it took all of her time but she is back at it and doing well. I know what someone is getting for Christmas ha ha. Going to be trying some new Goldtips out today and if they shoot as good indoors as they do outdoors I will be just fine. This is going to be a great year and going to work a little harder during the off season to improve on some weak points. We all sometimes have to remember the things that we were taught and go back and start over . Even when you are teaching someone else you always go back to basics. This will give them a strong foundation to start from. Being able to shoot with some one is and has always be a plus to me because it give you that little exta boost to work just a little harder. While my training partner has many World Cup wins and a World Champion . I work on things that are important to make me a better shooter and he pushes me to the limit in a positive way. This also makes me a better person as well by being to assist others to excel l as well. Sometimes it hard to get to the range because we live 70 miles from there so when we go we make a day out of it. Well for know we are off to the range for some positive range time and we will talk to you all later Rex ...

| Here comes the newbie-my first post for Legend Archery! You guys are going to love the new stuff coming out, I am so excited. Wow, it has been a crazy year of competing! I think in July I was home about ten days. It seems a bit strange now to not be leaving to go somewhere to shoot. I like to travel but I do miss my dog when I am gone and she misses me just a little. |
