" Hello! My name is Harold Hall, Ft. Lauderdale Archers in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and today we are going to talk about tips and techniques of archery. On behalf of Expert Village, I would like to welcome you. Another aspect is when you load the bow. You want to do this in a safe manner so that anybody around you, you won't get harmed or hurt. So what you are going to do is grab the arrow. You are just going to kind of turn it in your hand, your fingers away from you. Take your knot come up over top of the bow, you are going to come down and you are going to put the knot underneath your knocking point and make sure it snaps on. What you are going to do is set it on your arrow rest. Okay, make sure everything is okay and then you are going to aim it out in front of you. Then what you are going to do is reach around with your right or left hand, whichever way you shoot and then you are going to grab a hold of the string. Okay, that's one of the aspects of archery. "
