Thank you for an excellent session on Saturday, I learnt a lot.

Many thanks for the training session Saturday

I felt as though I learned a lot of useful things which will be helpful in the future.

Thank you for a great session yesterday.

It definitely helped me sort a few queries that I couldn’t make sense of from my own reading of tuning manuals.

It was a great turnout and I got the feeling that it helped everyone and that they enjoyed it.

It’s a shame we ran out of time but there is such a lot to cover.

I really need to work on my form now and I’m thinking of lowering my draw weight again to help.

Thanks again and hope to see you soon.
