There is definitely a cultural and generational change happening in sport too. People are much more likely to turn to the internet as their first point of reference. Traditionally, it has been the responsibility of the coach to ensure that they're giving the right information, but a lot of people find that accessibility to quality coaching is a barrier. The internet has given much greater accessibility for people to tap into collective knowledge, however, the unfiltered nature places much more responsibility on the viewer themself. My advice for people who do not have a personal coach and look online for guidance is to consider yourself as your OWN personal coach. Go online. Watch everything. Educate yourself.... but then ultimately, its YOUR responsibility to filter credible sources, understand the principles, and ultimately apply it. P.S. Thanks for using my video analysis example.

Wholeheartedly agree about in-person coaching. I've been practising archery for about 2~ years now and for the most part, I've been watching channels like this to get info and improve my tech. However, I've been fortunate enough to come across a lvl 4 coach, and within the first session, I saw immediate results. So now, we meet every fortnight, or whenever he has a timeslot available. So, if you're on the fence about getting coaching sessions, do it if you can afford it. You may not encounter a coach that would be suitable for you but it'll be much better than self-learning and asking anons online.

I like being told what to do by you. I’ve learned a massive amount of useful information from your channel. Two thumbs up!

As the only one at my club who shoots thumb release on the 'wrong side', I received a lot of advice, some certainly more and some less applicable. The mediterranean skills don't all transfer well. I still suck, but had I taken their advice too seriously, I'd be much worse. However, some of it was very helpful, but not as much as what I've found online, eg right here.

Thumbdraw is overall closer to western heavy bow technic than Olympic.

I think it depends...which is obvious I know. Some advice in small general ways isn't bad but some advice comes from people who don't know but assume they know. As in maybe you're intentionally doing something and someone notices what you did but they don't know its intentional, so they feel the need to correct you and tell you how you're suppose to do it. Most would say "experts" are the best for advice, but I've seen people who are labelled as experts give not just bad advice but incorrect information. Stemming from them only doing one form of archery and not knowing how things are done with other forms. Not the to mention as always people will always speak from how they do it, how they were taught, which doesn't equal this is how everyone should do it.

The shots from the beginning of this video have collapsed releases. In your last traditional bow reviews you were doing bad khatra, the arrow was slapping the bow at release. So why would I trust your advice?

You shouldn't. If that disqualifies someone's credibility, then you have made an informed choice on who to trust. When I watch someone, even if their technique is poor, I still evaluate the point of their message. If I feel that their point is misguided _because_ of their technique, then I would not likely hold it in as high regard. But if my ustadh understands what good technique is and can identify when someone does it right, then I'd value their ability to teach it.

Do you have a web page, or somewhere I could book for some coaching?

Hi. do you mean Uncle Gao Ying is not good enought in archery?! (little joke) but i learn a lot in archery from yours videos and other else (i know you don't like compound bow, and i'm pratice it but there's a lot of commun point), and sure we have to be carreful from who we take these information. Salut. tu veux dire qu'oncle Gao Ying n'est pas assez bon en tir à l'arc.!!! (petite blague) mais j'apprends beaucoup en tir à l'arc grâce à votre vidéo et à d'autres choses (je sais que vous n'aimez pas l'arc à poulies, et je le pratique mais il y a beaucoup de points communs), et bien sûr, nous devons faire attention à qui nous prenons ces information.
