Analysis
Cause and Effect
Our observations represent and record effect
Avoid preconceived explanations for observed behaviour
Instead, we must look for and identify cause where we
observe behaviour of archer or equipment which is not
optimal
Always try to say that something we observe happens
because of something we see in equipment setup or
technique

Identify areas where changes in technique may help
Identify equipment setup opportunities with the archer
ALWAYS factor in the current standard and aspirations of the archer

setup
Prioritise those things which will lead to the most significant improvement
