In today's lesson while shooting, it occurred to me what I've read the book "The Way of the shooting ' arc. "Every time you going to shoot, you have to understand" the taking ", as it should challenge the right arc. ; My vision of these movements in my mind, from mind to pen these sketches sketched.
In the first case fits the space between the thumb and forefinger, which is called "The jaws of the Tiger or Tora no Kuchi." The final part of the thumb is call point tsunomi. The pressure is exerted on the right edge of the handle of the bow. The skin between the thumb and index finger is placed up against the handle slightly Right Angle with a movement from the bottom up. Two-thirds of the handle is supported by the side of the "tiger's mouth", a third side of the index, then you place your little finger so that it is closer to the thumb. The following puts' ring on the handle between finger and thumb, and finally wedged under the thumb for the average root position, so that the three fingers form a single line for the "te no uchi," the close and compact as possible. All this reminds
as mentioned in a previous post, the "Momiji Gasan", or maple leaves superimposed that with so many different colors in the autumn falling over each other, form a whole.
