Wear close-fitting sleeves

Hydrate before shooting
A short session still demands steady hands—drinking water beforehand helps maintain focus.
Expect basic safety briefings
Arrive a few minutes early to listen to instruction on range etiquette and emergency stop signals.
Mind the wind for outdoor ranges
If the session is outdoors, a gusty day can change arrow grouping—adjust aim and accept broader groupings.
