Good book to learn more April 27, 2008

This is good book to learn a bit more if you do first steps in traditional archery. It is interesting to read, and gives very clear step - by step advices.
good book for beginners July 16, 2007

like most instructional books, "become the arrow" will not answer every question you might have. i agree will the other reviewers who said there is a lot of biographical info that doesn't help the beginner much. what this book does well, however, is explain - with a lot of illustrations - proper form for the traditional archer. how you should hold the bow, what your sight picture should be, and how to adjust for distance shooting are all covered in detail. my only complaint, other than the "filler" material, would be that he doesn't say much about equipment, especially arrows, which as he describes his method he says is the most important piece of equipment. i would like to see more info and recommendations on different weights, spines and fine tuning arrow selection. "traditional archery", by brian sorrells does a better job explaining arrow selection, and other equipment, but doesn't explain technique as well. these two books together, can answer almost every question a beginner might have.

Best archery book I have read. My shooting has improved so much that I recommend 'Become the Arrow' to anyone starting to hunt with traditional archery equipment.
If you shoot a longbow or recurve, this book can help you. November 3, 2006

This book is a quick read which can help you improve your archery skills. Having read everything I can find when it comes to shooting traditional equipment, Byron does a better job than most describing his technique. Actually practicing and mastering a "new" method of shooting is a completely different subject. The book also contains tips on hunting as well as several accounts from Byron's hunting and exhibition shooting career.
 A little disapointing January 28, 2006

The book was just too short, without enough information. If you cut out the part on hunting, the biography (both are parts I"m not really interested in as a 3-D target shooter), their wasn't a great deal left. Good information on tuning and the author's technique I guess, but he could have added a lot more to clarify. It's like the book didn't have an editor.
