New episode!... After a long break, the boys are back!  In this episode hosts Andy Morgan and Matt Elliott discuss the changing landscape on the professional tour and how forward-facing sonar technology is creating the necessity for change once again.  One thing remains constant in this world, the need for adaptation and whether that is by the minute in the field or year-to-year in the big picture, adapt or die is a rule to live by.

Host Levi Morgan, with Andy Morgan and Matt Elliott, breaks down small adjustments archers can make to their bow setups, stance, grip and shot form that can make a big difference in aiming, execution and ultimately the consistency of your shot.  This isn't a magic pill and it takes practice (a lot of it) before small tweaks to things like draw length will make significant differences, but when you're ready, it can feel like magic.
