Here, we run mock scoring rounds and use video playback to break down your stance and release. We treat every practice session like a competition, so when you face the pressure of a state or national championship, your form stays solid. ### How We Build Champions Our competitive program at Karnala Sports Academy and Pillai College is built for those who aim for the podium. We don't just shoot; we analyze. Using video playback, we catch micro-errors in your draw length, cam timing for compound bows, and anchor consistency. ### The Training Regime You get access to a full 70-meter Olympic range. We run six-day intensive schedules, including evening and night sessions for those working around school or professional commitments. You will learn to handle World Archery formats, manage event logistics, and master mental conditioning to keep your nerves in check during finals. ### Why Join Our Squad Our students have consistently bagged medals at the SFA Championships and Senior State level competitions in places like Kolhapur and Mumbai. We provide: * **Technical Micro-Tuning:** Professional help with arrow spine matching and stabilizer setups. * **Tournament Simulation:** Real-time scoring pressure during training so match day feels routine. * **Equipment Mastery:** Guidance on transitioning from traditional wooden bows to pro-level recurve and compound setups. If you are ready to stop guessing and start scoring, come see us on the line. Your target is waiting. ## About Drona Archery Academy I am Mukesh Gurdhale, and at Drona Archery Academy, your goals are my goals. I don't care where you start, but I care deeply about where you finish. We put in the hard work every single day so that when you step up to the shooting line, you are ready to win.
