I create and manage community archery programs including "After School Archery Programs", Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD) Programs, programs for home schoolers, Parks and Recreation Programs, YMCA's, church groups, speciality camps, summer camps,and Boy and Girl Scouts.

Ever think of having an archery activity for your child's birthday? A short introductory archery event for your child's party is sure to be the birthday hit that he or she will never forget! I will work with you to schedule your birthday party either at your location, or mine.

 

Our action packed archery corporate retreats use team sports theories to help identify strengths in each team  member, then to utilize those strengths to develop a winning plan to bring the team to victory!

 

Whether you are a beginner tounament archer, hunter, or an advanced elite competitor, here you will find the know-how to kick your skills up a notch!

 

In our individual and group archery lessons I use the state-of- the-art Dartfish video software, the same sport assessment video software program used by many major sports disciplines. This is a freeze- frame by freeze-frame form assessment technique that is invaluable in observing and assessing up-close, not only the problem areas, but helps us to capitalize on your strengths as well.

Ginger instructs in all disciplines of archery; Field, Olympic, Indoor Spot Tournaments, Hunting, 3-D, etc.

All types of archery equipment, compounds, recurves, longbows, release aids, finger shooters,

 

Individual lessons are for the beginner, intermediate, advanced, and elite skill levels

 

In individual lessons we will work  one on one; only. We will use the Dartfish Sports Software along with state of the art video cameras to video tape and assess your form.  We can use slow motion, freeze frame, in-depth angle readouts, infinite timing, etc. 

 

This allows us to get a close and very accurate picture of the variables of your shot form.

 

Video taping your form, and our work together provides us with the ability to keep accurate records of each step of the way toward reaching your archery goals. 

 

In other words, we can pick up on the little things that make up the whole picture of how you manage your shot process.

 

Individual lessons are especially helpful for beginners, individual lessons offer you as a beginner a great opportunity to focus on developing good form, with little or no distractions. 

We will work on specific individual  archery techniques that make up the complete shot process; individual lessons allow us to  stay focused on each segment of the whole shot sequence; from the most simple -proper stance - through the final follow through of the shot routine;

 Everything that comes in-between, until you are comfortable that you have mastered each step of the way.

 

We will make an assessment of your equipment, insuring that you have a clear understanding of how each part works, insuring that it fits you properly.

 

We will assess your equipment set up, making sure that you get the maximum results out of all that archery gear you have spent so much money on. I will help you to make appropriate selections in ordering the proper equipment for you, right from the start.

 

You will learn how to properly execute your release aid, whether you use the typical wrist strap jaw caliper type, or the more complex hand held back-tension styles. 

 

If you are a finger shooter, (no release aids), you will learn how to properly grip the string, draw and anchor, proper release, and follow through. This will help you to become consistant in your release, with little consious thought.

 

For the the more advanced archer, or even if you have achieved the elite status, individual lessons with Ginger Hopwood will  help you increase focus toward improving your mental game.... together, we will do an in-depth assessment of the fine tuning of your equipment to insure the maximum enhancement of your skill;

Our extensive video taping assessment of your form will inable us to pick up on the little things that make up the whole picture, this will make all the difference in the end result of your tournament.

 

Individual lessons allow us to be flexible in how we schedule lessons. We will work to set goals and create individual game plans to help you to manage your game.

Group archery lessons

Contact information: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

 

Includes all disciplines of archery - Field, Olympic, Indoor spots, 3-D, Hunting, etc.

 

Beginner, intermediate, advanced and elite skill levels 

 

 

Group lessons are typically a 2 day- weekend class.

No matter what your skill level is, whether you are a beginner all the way through advanced, or elite; group lessons are a good, cost effective way to get a quality assessment of your shooting form.

 

We will use video to clearly assess what you are doing, and continually monitor your progress. We use the same Dartfish Sports Assessment Software that is used in other sports disiplines such as; golf, tennis, baseball, etc.

On our first day together, we will  video tape everyone's shooting form individually. Then we sit down, one on one and go over your individual video record.

Together we assess your strengths, and highlight the areas that we agree that you could use a little work on.

Next , we make a game plan to help you to work toward reaching your long term goals.  We then spend the remainder of the day working together on short term goals that we set during our video session.

 

On our second day, we begin our day sharing how you feel that you are progressing, and what the game plan should be for day 2.  By mid-afternoon, we begin video taping you again.  We go over the video again, and refer back to the first day's video to insure that you are making progress and that you have a good grasp on how to achieve what your trying to accomplish.

 

 We work together as a group, using positive feedback, interacting with each other to help each other to have a successful lesson period. Bring a friend and take the class togethr... thus insuring that you to have someone there after Ginger has left to help you if you forget something, or if you aren't sure that you are continuing in a forward manner.  

 

All you have to do now is to gather up a few friends... come up with some dates for scheduling, and contact Ginger, so we can schedule your class, and get started!
